GL - SEN TIN, •OUGLASVi* 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 Rubbing Eases Pain Rubbing sends the liniment tingling through the flesh and quickly rftops pain.
