Why do the children fear Him?
They know not the loving heart

In which they have each part.
They dream. that He speaks like thunder,
That a dark frown wells His face,
They shrink from His look of lightning
hen they come to the meeting place.
How little they know the Father;
But the Son they have seen and known
Did He speak to the people roughly?
And had He heart of stone?
Dia de punish the least transgression?
Did He utter the word forgiven?
And was He not known to promise

The Washington herald., 1919-10-27

One of the things over which we
mortals wonder and grieve Is that
marriage Is such a lottery. and that
when we take the most important
step in lives we make a leap In
the dark without the slightest GER
tainty Of whether we are going to
land I'm heaven or hell. OF course
we hope for the beat. or else we
wouldn't have the courage to take the
jump. but We only hope that we are
getting the kind OF a husband or wife
that we want. We don't know that
we are.
The optimistic tell us that II we
want to make sure of being happy,
though married. that we must Set to
know thoroughly the individual whom
We have proposed to accompany TO
the altar.
That listens well. but as a practi-
cal guide to domestic felicity IT isn't
worth a button. A boy and girl may
have played together when they made
mud pies They may have gone to
school together And seen each other
every day OF their lives. but when
they get married they fnd out that
they are just as much strangers to
each other as II they had married
somebody whom they had kidnapped
in a strange crowd. and whom they
had never set eyes upon before.
II a man would believe his observa-
tions he would conclude that all girls
are patient Grizeldas. and that he
couldn't go amiss in picking out any
one of them. Many a one does go
upon this insufficient evidence, and
finds out to his CONSERVATION that he
has caught a tartar who has saved up
to say to her husband all the things
she didn't dare to say to her beaux.
And just as there are no infallible
signs and portents by which a man
can tell what sort Of q wife a woman
will make, neither IL there any way
by which a woman can dope out what
sort of a husband a man will be.
All women crave husbands who are
loving and tender, and chivalrous and
romantic. but you can't Judge of the
tion by the line of talk he hands out
in the days of courtship. There are
plenty of men who call their wives
angel face" before marriage who
never address them as anything but,
say" after the honeymoon has waned
Nor can a woman be assured that
the man who has been a good son
will make a good husband. Generally,
he makes the most aggravating of hus-
bands. because he Is always telling
his wife about how mother does
things, and forcing mothers bread and
mothers pie down her throat.
No, there is no way to make matrt-
mony a gilt-edse Investment 1t is
the eternal lottery. That's why we
all take a chance on it.
