The Little Things Of Life
Rerder, if you weve asked to
name the most popular man in
town, whom would designate?
Perhaps you think, on the spur
of the moment, you would indi
cate some great lawyer, or some
favorite minister, or pethaps
some old fomily doctor, or any
one of a dozen or more notable
personages in the community.
But on second thought you are
not so sure, and after mature
reflection you are ready to dis
card then: all.
Then you begin to cast about
among the less notable ones.
Now you are "getting warm” as
the children say.
Now you have located him, and
you are surprised, because he is
never associated in your mind
with the great, or even the near
great, nevertheless, as you study
him, his popul rity and the rea
sons therefor are brought forci
bly to your attention.
In the first place you study
him as he comes down town
in the morning. His prog
ress is slow, as he seems to l,e
sto ped bv every person he
meets, and he has a warm hand
shake and a cheerful “Good
Morning” for all. You follow
him to his place of business and
see him radiating the same sun
shine and cheerful gree.ing, and
you find he is known to eveiy
employe on the place as "Uncle.”
Waieh nim, if he is a merch
ant, as the store begins to fill
with customers. Each receives
the same cordial welcome. To
the ladies he is especially cour
teous and you are surprised to see
that courtesy unshaken even
when confronted by one whom
you by no stretch of the imagina
tion could term a lady. He sees
your surprise and— “for the sake
of the sex,” he smiles.
Now watch him as he starts
for home toward n i g h t f a I 1.1
School is out and the children
are on the streets. Here he
must stop to shoot a marble with ;
a crowd of urchans, and they 1
hail his coming with shouts of
glee. Another must persuade
him to have a try at his top. On
account o his avordupoise he has
to draw the line at the hoop
which ano her offers him, but he
starts it ofr for the youngsters
to pursue.
A little further on he is ac-|
costed by a bevy of small girls,
who are in their element as they
swarm around him, clamoring
for a story, teasing him to jump
rope, or even rifling lus pockets
for suspected sweets.
You see him as he reaches his
home, when the good wife meets
him at the gate. She has a sad
tale for his ear. Sorrow has
entered a neighbor’s home. At
once he is all sympathy, and
without waiting to enter his own
door he passes on to the house
of sorrow. Perhaps he can offer
nought but sympathy, but this
comes so plainly from the heart
and is accompanied by such a
warm clasp of the hand, that it
carries its blessed message of
comfort and sympathy.
Now you’re beginning toappre-
ciate the true reason for his pop
ularity. He is a man of innu
merable small deeds of kindness,
but those deeds are such as touch
the h.unstrings of the people
about him. He, himself has
nev.r aspired to great things,
being content to occupy himself
w.th ihe small affairs of life,
know.ng full well, wise man that
he is, thatofsuch s human life
composed. He would smile with
incredulity were you to hint to
him of his great popularity, be
cause he is essentially one of the
humble ones o, earth.
And his great popularity—
whence comes it?
In his heart he has caught and
held the echne of a voice from
the far off past- "and the second
is like unto this: Thou shalt love

Why Not Have
Perfect Lenses? -
Improvements and better
ments in glasses are just as
frequent as in anything else.
Until a few years ago all
lenses were flat, because no
one had thought of a better
way to make them.
Today nearly 90 per cent of
lenses fitted are Toric lenses,
curved to follow the shape of
ihe eyeball.
Tories give a perfect range of vis
ion from every angle—the edges do
not confuse you when looking from
the corner of the eye.
Lot us demonstrate the many ad
vantages of Tories made hy us.

Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark.,
says: “I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth,

spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and
as strong as I ever did, and can eat most anything.”
