A LINE O. CHEER
BY John kendriek Bangs.

ITO PASS along what's given me
i Is not the test OF charity.
But II l view the errors of
Ny fellow-man with eyes of love,
And when he falls hold forth
hand
Enabling him once more to stand.
And from the depths of his dark
pain
To start Upon his road again.
To use the good that's In him still
To overcome his ways of III.
That truly seems to me to be
The richest sort of Charity.
