T h i girl had a tender heart, the mo bile temperament of her race, was tim id and very sensitive. At a dressmaker’s where she iirst found employment »lie chanced to say fconiething about “wairuck,” aud the other girls tittered and said, “You menu •woyck.* don’t you?’’ When the girl saw they were making fun of her •he left the place. She engaged at a department store, where again laughter greeted her ut terance. and the rude teasing wounded her sj irit. She labored hard to correct her English pronunciation, but the Limerick tongue would not twist easi ly. Going to another shop, she endured similar treatment and was In despair. Her face grew sad, and she brooded. One day she told her rulu lives she hud taken a life Insurance |*olley. “Why?” they asked. “I might die,” she said, with a far away look. "The money would be for you.” On her last Sunday the poor child dressed herself in her best clothes and went to a park. Here she stayed all day and all the nigiit following. She was debating the awful query, “To he or not to be?” What must have been the torture to the distrait mind and the sensitive soul? Monday morning at dawn she went to a clump of hushes and swallowed cftrbollc acid. A policeman found her writhing on the grass. And in the am bulance on the way to the hospital she gasped: “They’ll never make fuu of me again ” And then she died. No, lassie, they never will make fun of you again. And bitterly sorrowful must they be to know they hounded you unwittingly to destruction. You see, there’s more than one way to kill u poor girl! And, Kuthleeu, in the kinder land to which you have gone your limping mother tongue will trouble you no more. There will bo no rough sylla bles to pronounce. Where you have gone there is only one language spoken —a language used all too seldom here. It Is the language of love. Moral? Be careful lest you hurt some sensi tive soul by your careless gibes. What to you may seem a trivial Jest may prove In the heart of the easily affected a festering wound. U. S.

Hate Is expensive.” Which is true. Hate consumes vital force. It dissipates energy. And it profits nothing. If you hate some one you will show It. And thus you put it into the pow er of the one vou hate to make you miserable. Why hand over to your dearest foe a whip which he may use to scourge you? The late Paul Morton, president of one of the big insurance companies, when asked if lie did not like to "get even” with persons who had wronged him replied: “I haven’t time to get even. 1 am too busy.” Which Is philosophical. As we say on the street, the l>est thing to do in such a mutter Is to “forget It.” Life Is too short to pursue |>eople for the sake of revenge. Moreover— lit order to "get even” you must lower yourself to the level of him you seek to punish, which means that you shall add to the bitterness of your hatred the loss of your self respect. If you eaiinst do better you at least can say: ffcorn to bo scorned by one Whom 1 scorn— Is that n mutter to cause regret? Is that a matter to make mo fret? In other words, if you caunot frame a better philosophy “consider the source.** Better still - Live on a plaue where distress can not come to you bemuse of the hatred of any man. Lincoln was the best abused and most thoroughly bated muu of his gen oration, but Emerson says of him: “Ilis heart was as lurge ns the world, and yet it hod no room in it for the memory of a wrong." He lived ou the heights. To thus live high above a II iietty grutlx«- oml llttl«" iiiiinin.itlt"< is to live lu mi Atmosphere of "m alk t to ward none nml eliarlty for nil." Can't live up there? Well, It la miller hlith living for most of us We may *>'l up at times, but Ihe nlr of that alllttule is too rare- fled for our unaeelimated souls. Rut ?Ve cannot afford to live down ou the swamp level of passionate dis likes and personal hatreds. Mental «hills and fever prevail la the miasma of that level. If we cannot live ou the heights let us at leust abide ou the hillside, where we ntay learn to coasc to bate— and to furtive. At Great Reduction SOUTH BOUND. A.
