Taere a muck trutn in the old saying tuat "kind aras - is better and nearer ...,n goldi' 4i we all would hate more kind thouguts of one anotner, w..en any one doea or says any thing about us, we do not like, we should not trt our Bi nd dwell on what we would like to ssy to tbem or iiow we would like to punish them. Uut should banish all evil tiiougnta from onr minds about tucm. For God will give tneia junt punishment at his wui. Hov. many of -yon believe anything happens for the test I I do for one. No muter how hard it way seem to Us at Ihe present time, 1 believe if we are doing the best we can in the si -t of God. He surely wnl do what is best for us. 8 when every to.ng that seems bad seems to be coming our way. we should not get discouraged but say some day I .will ace w.iere this waa best and loigel our troubles and go about speak ing kind words to othera and we will soon find we hare been made happy by making others happy. We shnald always be km. . o. dear parents, for when we have' lost a- good father and mother, we hate !mt fun world's sweetest gilt, lint when we lank dpr-n their ilesr fares and knew lint niin worn will tbey kpeak to us in this world, it a a tomfott to know of no unkind words we nave sain io mem in Ihe past. On tue oth er band, parents should be kind in their rhil drcn. "Give them j-vrry reasonable pleas ure. So when thjr. have homes of their own tney ran recall tun many nappy hrs t.. have been spent at home, aweet home." There no pleasure without krndneu. no loKlter where We go. I have in aund iod a few basbands woo after working hard all Jav actually dread for the lime to rome when they must return nome as they kno they will only be met by a scolding wife. Oh, wbst we need is kind wives in nr homes. It is ia bis. heart that she- ia a queen. All that ia dark in him she ran purge into purity. From her through all the world rlnmor he must win hia praise. In her through 'all the world'a warfare he must find his place. Better than gold is a peareful home, - Now while we are speak ing of wives, what about some of thoee hus bands f There are plenty of good wives who after toiling all day with rbiblren and onsetiold duties , tremble at the aound of husband'a - footsteps. Oh. the curses and soroetimea the blows she will receive from this brute of a husband, when, instead, hr should have all kind words and smiles for his dear wife. God has given him a good wife and some day when he has. taken her away from hint-, too Iste he will -realise what hlessiag she could have been to him. A woman is a Weak venae!, so we are told, aad without kindness- she-, will become sirk of the world. She loses interest in everything and like some pure flower, she will gradu ally fade !. to the shadow ot death. But first of all. dear rousins, let's be kind t' our loving Heavenly Esther who has been so good to us. - May ihe ImtA be nor watrh word through Ihe coming year. Then we ned not fear bat that happineaa will come. MARKI. WIlODri.I. Box 125, Ashboro. X. C. From ft 8haUott Kid. IM-al Editor: Here comes , a classy kid from western Brunswick roanty.
