believing that he must return to
them some day, the joy which they
so we'll deserved? Thus, as the
mama fell from heaven when the
children of Israel were hungry in
the days gone by, just SO did Myron
Jacob return and enter the home he
had run away from years ago, when
his parents were hungry for the
sight of him. He lost no time in
reaching the haven of rest and there
in the home of his parents once
more, he lived again the days Of
childhood and vowed to himself that
the Lost Chord should be found, that
his kind old parents should never
again be neglected and that they,
too, shall have fireplace and small
children around it in future years
and that the joy of the old Shamas
should be transmitted to the home

youth, as the top whirled round and
round. How long Myron Jacob
looked on, he didn't realize, but soon
the little family gathered around the
table with it's snowy white covers
and even while the meal was being
partaken of, the old Shamas was
telling the children stories which
caused wonder to be written on
their faces.
Is it any wonder then, that the
heart of the business man was
heavy? At this time he recalled
similar scenes in his own home,
years ago. In the early days he
spent with Grumpy Jake" he sent
letter home occasionally, but since
he went into business for himself
he was SO engrossed that everyone
was forgotten. He did not realize
how the hearts of his aged parents
were made heavy by this neglect of
their hayward boy. Always they
were expecting word from him,
but that word had not come for
many years. Often the eyes of his
dear parents grew dim with tears
at the remembrance of the lad whom
they had rocked in their arms, held
on their knees and at whose con-
frmation they had SO gratefully re-
ceived.
AS he sat before the fire recalling
these scenes, no wonder that Myron
Jacob was disturbed Ivy the melody
of the Lost Chord. Always too
busy making dollars, he gave no
thought to the future and what COM
forts and rewards his efforts would
produce in later years. Money,
money, money-that was what he
had been living for and now that he
had much of it, what joy did it
bring him? The Shamas had few
dollars and was sublimely happy,
and why? A goodly mate did not
surround him with comforts because
she was being we'll paid, but because
the love of doing prompted her.
Then the little children came to
brighten the home and to fill the
early days with childish prattling
and to bestow love and comfort up
on their parents as they grew older.
Thus the maker of money" real
lied the wrong he had done his
worthy parents; he was uncomfort-
able in the thought of the joy of
which he deprived his dear old par
