it by being beautiful and infinitely desirable,
so that all men loved her and were unhappy.
All men but Stuart. Stuart and she had

each other so much that it had never occurred

both stood there and took it until it passed.

He got up, and the city was blaze of high
light around him, with the sidewalk hard
clacking pathway to nowhere. He pounded it
not seeing, not feeling and almost not
thinking. He was humping people. That went
on for awhile, until he brought up squarely
against brass buttons and blue coat. Then
the whole of life faded out for six merciful
hours.
With day again, there was the necessity
for him to stand up and face it. Take it on his
feet with his eyes front. He took it = and the
magistrate dished it out. He paid his fine and
cabbed to his club. 1t was in his mind to steam
and get rubbed, but as he walked in, the trap
of despair snapped shut again in his face and
he drank again that day. Don't talk cowardioe
and quitting, talk sense. He wasn't drinker;
he had a woman stamped on his soul and he
didn't know that alcohol wouldn t wash heroff.
He fooled the club servants because he kept
talking sense, so they let him go out at four
O'Clock. ALI he wanted was to walk again. He
collapsed at Forty-eighth Street and Sixth
Avenue and came to, twenty hours later. in
St. Vinoent's Hospital.
Very quietly he lay on his bed looking up at
the ceiling, listening to the abominable noise
of the ward. He had to have friends. One by
one he went over them and there wasn't one
man that had what he needed quiet loyalty
and no questions. So he couldn't go to any
one. Then he began to think of places. Some
where that he could get to quickly let it
take him. But there wasn't one place. Then he
knew it had him and the knowledge was
sudden white fright in his soul. He was done.
There was no one and no place. The life of
him was closed in tight around him.
He wasn't arrested again, by some miracle,
but he had two fingers broken once - and the

Indifference Blights
Many a Bud of Promise

Whenever you can conSclen-
tiously encourage anyone, do so.
You would not leave those plants
in your window without water, or
refuse to open the shutters that
the sunlight might fall upon them;
but you leave some human flower
to suffer from want of apprecia-
ton or the sunlight of encourage
ment. There are few hardy souls
that can struggle on stony soil,
shrubs that can wait for the dew
and the sunbeams, vines that will
climb without kindly training-but
only few. Utter the kind word,
when you can; give the helping
praise when you see that it is de-
served.
