The Genevieve Who Has Jus* ived
and Loved 1
James’ hair was silvery, and the
locks of Genevieve were white as
snow.
James’ hair was all a mass of curls,
utterly uninvaded by a bald spot.
Genevieve wore her snowy crown in
a French twist. Don’t you know, you
benighted youngsters, what a French
twist may be? Well, you just ask
I mother if she—or grandmother—-will
| show you what it is. And then gaze
upon it in admiration for the really
miraculous slickness at the sides and
the space it gives for garniture of the
upper reaches of the brain-cover.
So Genevieve had her white locks in
a French twist. And she lifted bright,
dark eyes to James when he came into
the rest room of the big department
store and stood before her, hat in
hand, with that indescribable air of
breeding which no half-shabby gar
ments could for a moment dim.
James carried a tissue paper par
cel in his hand, a very long parcel, in
deed, and very much bigger at one end
than at the other. In fact, James with
the silvery curls was bringing roses
to Genevieve of the snowy French
twist.
Genevieve lifted bright dark eyes
and her mouth took the sweetest
curve —just every bit as sweet as the
curve it used to take <lver and ever so
many years ago when James used to
come to the steps of her father’s home
in the village when the moon shone in
those wonderful summer nights—
when James stood at the foot of the
steps and looked up, worshipping, into
the dark eyes of Genevieve, gazing
| down upon him from the topmost step.
In those wonderful, white, moonlit
nights it had seemed to James that
the eyes of Genevieve were twin stars,
glowing with heavenly beauty and
maiden love. And after all these
years, they look the same way to
James today. And her mouth takes
the same sweetest of a 1 curves —the
curve that comes to tl a lips of the
woman who is well lov d.
James is bringing rc es to Gene
vieve today, just as he Irought them

he used to slip down into his mother’s {
garden and pull the sweet, pink blos
! sons, one by one. He used to look at
' them and think of Genevieve’s cheeks.
, Then he used to turn to another rose
• bush and pull the great, heavy blooms
‘ of the red, red rose and think of bis
Genevieve’s wonderful red mouth —
i and maybe he would hum a little
j about his love being like the red, red
rose, till his voice—he never had much
i of a voice—would miss a note, and
then he would fall silent from sheer
; happiness.
Because now he would be standing
: before the white rose bush and think-
I ing of the snow’ white soul of his owm
j Genevieve, his own girl, and of her |
' pure love that crowned his life with a :
wreath of white roses, sweeter than
any flower this earth in all its gardens
I ever bore.
Then, in that wonderful evening,
James would gather up the roses
plucked in his own dear mother’s gar
den and carry them to his own dear
. girl. And her dark eyes would smile
; at him and in the dark hair he loved
would be set, presently, a blossom
from the white rose bush, and it would
shine there like a spirit all the moon-
I lit evening long. And later Gene
vieve would put it in a little vase all
to itself because James gave her, es
! pecially, just that one rose.
James bought the roses of a florist
tonight, but they were pink and red
j and white just as they used to be.

I No, indeed. They were just in a tis

j looked at the three kinds of roses, and .
I then she smiled at James again, and j

What Is It to Be a
Christian?
By Dr. H. T. MUSSELLMAN,
of Philadelphia
TEXT—How often shall my brother sin
against me and I forgive him?—Matt.
XVIII, 21.
What Is it to be a Christian? It Is
to possess the spirit of Jesus. Jesus
was greater than the things he did.
Every Christian must be greater than
the things he does. lam a Christian
In so far as 1 possess the spirit of
Christ. Ido not possess it complete
ly. If I did, I would be a second
Christ. I cannot possess the spirit of
Christ completely. But I am a Chris
tian In so far as I possess this spirit
of Christ.
What was the spirit of Christ? I
must seek to have the mind of Jesus.
In the first place, Jesus Christ pos
sessed the spirit of trust. He never
was afraid. Then the first thing in
Christian spirit is trust. There were
n.ghts when lie wen: out under the
eastern stars and gazed up at the
cerulean blue and talked to God in
prayer. Yet even in the garden of
Gethsemane as he prayed, “Father, fl
it be possible let this cup pass from
my lips,” he was not afraid. It was
his heavenly Father’s world. A man
is a Christian Insofar as he possesses
the spirit of trust. Why should we
be afraid in this world, when “the
heavens declare the glory of God?”
It is God’s world. When calamities
come they should not dismay. I am
not sure that even God could develop
us into the kind of characters he
wants us to be without the aid of
trouble.
Jesus Christ also possessed the
spirit of trust in men. He felt that
people are worth while. “Let him who
has not sinned cast the first stone.”
This petty jealousy, this crooking the
finger of scorn, this lack of trust and
faith in men, is almost as bad as the
lack of trust in God.
Christ possessed the spirit of in
finite pity, and I, too, if I am to be a
Christian, must possess the spirit of
pity. He came to save the lost and
his great heart went out in yearning
pity for all humanity. Even as he
sat and looked at Jerusalem, the city
which was to crucify him, he said,
"O, Jerusalem, Jerusalem, how oft
would I have gathered you as a hen
gathereth her brood, but you would
not,” even then overcome with com
passion. Without pity Christianity is
defective. You may get to heaven. I
am not hollering so much about
’>>■■ ' earn--f heave#,..
Christian insofar aa wb possess tut
spirit of forgiveness. Every man who
is worth anything makes some ene
mies. We have ample opportunity to
display the spirit of forgiveness. Look
j how injustice came to Jesus. They
j said he performed his works because
I he was a devil, and see how he met
it. With the great spirit of forgive
ness, and when he had "lost out," as
the world said, but had succeeded in
' a greater manner, he offered up the
j prayer of forgiveness on the cross,
j saying, “Father, forgive them; they
know not what they do." His great
I heart broke with compassion and for
giveness. I don’t care how much you
J have been sinned against, you cannot
afford to have any other but the spirit
of forgiveness.
If I am a Christian I possess the
i spirit of love. The very climax of the
I acts that make up human life is the
! touch of affection. Only as I love men
■ can I have the power over men. If
; a man finds that my heart beats atune
I w’ith him he opens his heart to me.
j As w’e possess the spirit of love we
' are Christians. "Though I speak with
i the tongues of men and of angels,
and have not love, I have become as
sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.”
i In my humble judgment, much of the
I talk that comes from pulpits and plat
! forms fails to inspire the hearers with
j the determination to live nobler be
i cause there is not that current of love.
A Christian is one who renders the
! humble service of Christ ahd possesses
. the spirit of Jesus. Are there per
fect Christians? No. If there, were
i there would be so many Christs. There
I are no perfect Christians. We are all
1 simply partial Christians, and for this
reason we ought to be kindly disposed
to the shortcomings of others.
Christ the Light and Life.
It is said that the sweetest side of
any fruit is the side which grows
toward the sun. There is no doubt
that the sun has a great deal to A>'
with the beauty and flavor of tfie
fruits which are the delight of min.
In this casual observation, as ir so
many facts from nature, rests a-'beau
tiful spiritual lesson for us all. What
the sun is to the natural world, that,
and much more, is Christ to tl a'world
of spiritual things. As the am Influ
ences the fruits of the ear®, giving
them beauty and lusciTisness, so
Christ sheds an influence over the
lives of many and gives them beauty
of character and purity of heart.
And as the sweetest side of a fruit is
the side toward the ,/un, so the best
side of man is the side toward Christ.
An Active Nothing.
The origin/' of sin is hid in mys
tery. home is in the darkness.
Nobody knows from whence it comes.
Je?.m never mentioned the subject.
S ne affirm that there is no such
thing as sin. If so, sin Is a very ac
tive nothing.—Rev. H. E. Purinton.
