To Have No Eyes Except for

is the serious mistake of any life. To be sure,
mo mill no meal" mo sweat no sweet; but
the meal of the mill will be greater, and the
sweat of the labor will be sweeter, if we are
not coopered up with straps as if we were
barrels just to carry sugar or salt.
We must have eyes to see suffering,
hearts to feel the loneliness and sorrows, and
hands to alleviate the anxieties, accidents
and troubles of others.
Do not let spikes of selfishness grow in
