THE TEST OF LOVE.
o
’E often long to do some
heroic thing to prove our
love. Especially in youth
when the blood flows rapid
ly and warmly and we are richer in
enthusiasm than in wisdom, do we
desire by one exalted moment of self
sacrifice to prove that our love is in
eftable. As the years bring experience
we learn that it requires greater cour
age, endurance and nobility of charac
ter to live conscientiously and kindly
day after day for a lifetime, than it
does to accomplish the one heroic
deed whose very splendor is an in
spiration to its achievement.
Love is not for a moment and its
proving is not in a day. It is for
time and eternity; for fair weather an and
foul; for riches and for poverty: for
sickness and for health; for sorrow
and for joy, and the true test ot love
is service.
We serve those we love. We serve
them consciously and unconsciously, j
The lover dedicates his life to his be-'
loved and as long as love lasts he,
serves her. Love is the one emotion
stronger than selfishness that impels
the true lover to place his love first
iu all things.
“Love took up the harp of life,land smote
on all its voids with might;
Smote tlie cord of Self, that tremb'ing,
passed iu music out of sisrht.”
The lover's service is a preparation
for a more unselfish service in the
tuture. The youth and the maiden
find in courtship a school for marriage
which demands above every other
relation unselfish, devoted service.
The instinct to love and to serve is
born in man. We seldom see an un
loving or an unwilling child, unless he
has been made indifferent and lazy
by unwise treatment. To help,
and to serve those he loves is
one of the most characteristic traits of
childhood. The little feet never
weary in service and the little hands
are tireless when a word of apprecia
tion helps the child to understand the
pleasure and assistance he is giving.
This service is almost involuntary on
the child's part, and is the result of
training as well as of aftection. The
well-bred child serves not only be
cause he loves, but because he has
been taught to obey those set in au
thority over him. In them he wor
ships wisdom and tenderness which
seem to him infallible, and he has no
thought apart from the relation in
which he find; himself placed.
The growing boy and girl, looking
out into the world that will some day
claim them, realize that the paternal
home does not contain all of life for
them. Gradually they withdraw from
the unquestioning obedience of child
hood and its joyous unselfish service
of others into what seems a selfish
preoccupation and indifference. Na
ture is preparing them for the dissolu
tion of the bonds of kinship and for
the forming of new ties that shall
make them citizens ot the world and
active members of society.
One by one the old tiesjare severed
and the youth abandons the service
of those who are bound to him by
nature for the service of choice; the
service of the maiden whom he loves,
of the friend to whom he is drawn, of
the community in which he dwells,
and so he founds anew home, con
tinues the race and makes social and
municipal life possible.
A higher type of service is that of
the parent, who gives all and asks
nothing in return. The lover demands
love for love, joy for joy, and life for
life. He gives that he may receive,
and all his rights and privileges are
most jealously guarded. If he offers
himself unreservedly, he demands all
in recompense. Not so the father
and the mother. They give from the
pure joy of giving and demand noth
ing in return. They know they are
educating their child for a life apart
from their own, yet they spare no
pains and yield him freely to his des
tiny, satisfied if he shall have made
the most of what is in him. Only one
who has been blessed with children
can realize the sublime unselfishness,
the infinite patience, the exquisite
tenderness, the unfailing courage and
devotion of true fatherhood and moth
erhood.
It is a joy to serve those we love
because it is an opportunity to show
them in a practical way our devotion
to them. There are many kinds of
service, but men serve best by their
nobility. In conversation with the
wise we gain new thoughts and a
more complete possession of our own.
In intercourse with the good and pure
we find new incentives to upright liv
ing. The sublime deeds of heroes
stir us to emulation. The sweetness
and patience that shine from the faces
of many mothers fill us with admira
tion and a steadfast faith in humanity.
The inspiration that comes from
contact with a noble character is the
highest gift from man to man.

“War is war, and someone is going
to get hurt right along. There is no j
room for grief. We owe everything
to the government we live under.”
This was the the homely epigram ut
ttered by Henry A. Pixton, a citizen
of Washington for over thirty years,
and who has given two sons to the
defense of the country's flag. One of
the boys fell before Santiago and the
other is now in the Pearl of the An
tilles under the Stars and Stripes. Mr.
Pixton was born in England, as was
also his wife, who has been dead for
seven years, but no more loyal citizen
it is safe to say can be found within
the confines ot the country.
“Yes.” he said to a Post reporter,
“my eldest boy is dead. He died
right, too, 1 am sure, although just
where he fell and the circumstances
surrounding his death are unknown
to me. I saw his name among the
dead in the list published in the news
papers, and have tried ever since to
get some further information from the
war department. They can tell me
nothing, and the last time I called
they did not have an official report of
the muster roll ot the troop to which
my son belonged.
“I have another son, Harry by
name, who belongs to the Fifth Unit
ted States cavalry, and is now serving
his country. I have seen war and
know what it is. I served three years
and four months in the First New
Jersey infantry during the war of the
rebellion under Gen. Phil Kearney. I
had rather lose all my sons on the
field of battle than to have them do
as that poor fellow out at Camp Alger
has done. There seems to lie noth
ing before him but disgrace. What
must his parents feel ? I bad rather
have my hoys come back to me with
out arms or legs. But they are in a
noble cause, and Will died an honor
able death.”
There were traces of tears in the
old gentleman’s eyes as he spoke, but
be smiled as he said : “Oh, well, we
have all got to die after a while, and
it s better to die an honorable death.

Helpful Thoughts.
Every moment spent in idleness or
foolish vanities if spent in study and
self-improvement would be the means
of accomplishing much good for others
as well as for ourselves, for the reason
that by doing right ourselves others
are influenced to do likewise. How
careful then ought we to be in our
daily lives, knowing that we are by
every act exerting an influence for
good or evil. It is the duty ot every
person to cultivate a spirit of cheerful
ness and submission to the will of our
heavenly Father in order that we
may find as many pleasant things as
possible in life, and be enabled to
help smooth over the rough places in
the lives of those with whom we come
in contact. Each day presents to us
opportunities from which much good
may result if we will only look about
us and discern them, using them to
the best of our ability. We should
ever cultivate a love of the good and
beautiful, and strive to emulate the
virtues of others, whi'e scorning all
manner of meanness and vice. Each
of our lives is an open page, upon
which we are continually making im
pressions. How cautious should we
be that these impressions be beautiful.
Let us then at eventide scan the page
of our life during the day, discovering
all mistakes, and ever afterward strive
to avoid a repetition of them.
