Although the idea of comradeship

living within ourselves We bear with
little grace the small misfortunes that
creep Into the tiny circle of our shel

The story Is told of Kisa (iotnmi,
the mother, wild with grief, who
brought her dead child to the great
teacher, Ruddha, and begged him to
give it life again, and he, with great
wisdom and compassion in his ejes.

from a home wherein there had been
no death. When she returned there
was great peace on iter face and tears
in her eyes for she said, "My search

house replied, 'Nay we have lost a

and the surge of strong emotion in
the heart; to be lifted, only for a brief
moment, out of the meanness and the
pettiness of a half-lived life and feel
the wave-beat and surge of immensi

moments small successes when our
little hopes and plans and lows are
fulfilled, and yet there must be a cer

On the Titanic were men whose hands

and whose hearts were aching with
the loss of petty human hopes and the
quick cutting of all thingB left undone,
and yet, after the last lifeboat had

THE TITANIC.
"O. T "
Monday morning before the night
mist had lifted from the sea. the
Titanic went down What quiet
handB in the tide and tho wind brought
tho ice down before its time to meet
and cut the thin thread of life she
drew across tho Atlantic, and how
that severed thread let fly a great
circle of pitiful waving ends as if Home
miBchievouB linger hnd been thrust
into the delicate spider web of life!
Yet we are accustomed to tragedies;
a few lives more or lesB make little
difference; tho web will mend again
and wo will turn to the next sensa
tional murder to have our finely strung
emotions tickled with the Injustice of
Things. What worth these things
have is perhaps to keep us from be
coming too pessimistic, too sensitive
to our troubles Often, like children
we think that our Binall Joy or sorrow
is the one thing of moment in all the
world. A child unaware of the mean
ing of things about him, unconscious
of his llkenoBB to those about him.
