Absent-Minded Benevolence.
A believer in organized charity
cites the following as an example
of mlsdlrocted tender-heartedness:
A very benevolent but absent
minded old gentleman, riding In his
carriage one hqt July day, noticed a
toad In tho dusty road gasping with
the heat. In tho kindness of hi
heart he climbed down, tenderly
moved the poor toad Into the shado
of his carriage, and then, thoroughly
satisfied with his good deed, climbed
