from him as to his possibly becom¬

Do You Lean or Lift.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox, who writes
some Rood things sometimes, has a
]»«n ou two kinds of people—
those who lift and those who lean.
She says there are twenty lean
e s where there is one wh.t lifts.
She is right, says the Memphis
Scimitar.
In every household there is
some one who is the main depen¬
dence. That one goes ahead with
the work, carries the burden and
the worry, while the others lean.
Usually it is the mother—more’s
tho pity—who does the lifting?
In every business it is so. One
takes the initiative, does the plan¬
ing. He seems cut out tor his
task of leadership and voluntarily
assumes it. The others depend on
him. It is so much easier to fol¬
low than to had.
In the church a very few do the
work and make the sacrifices of
time and energy The others lean
on the leaders.
Are you lifting or leaning?
There is a lot of work to do in
the world—not merely big tasks—
common everyday work. And
some do more than their share be¬
cause so many shirk, There are
tired, over-wrought eouls who
break under the strain because so
many lean upon them.
Is there some man near you who
is lifting more than his share of
the load? Roll up your sleeves
and give him a lift.
Is there some tired, worn, ner¬
vous woman upon whom—f< r
shame 1—you have leaned too long?
Turn in and help the overtaxed
brave one.
Quit leaning.
Lift!
