A man tliinks it is cowardly to ' shed tears;*and lie will do his utmost to keep them back. But , sometimes, try as he may, they will come, big, hot tears too. He cannot explain them always, hut he is certain of one thing - that his t soul has undergone a change. Now the little sentimental, gush- i : f ??lwv > lanrrlt frv lr \ 11 nnn ! ' 111$^ in|J, >?

Tears are mysterious, anyhow.} Tears that seem the overflowing of i a living soul that is tired or sick; [ the outburst of a sorrow; the offer-! ing of penitence; tears that atone ! for wrong - they are above little ! human things and even point us to : a greater atonement. And tears form the strongest j bonds that ever touch human j hearts. That great wcrd "sympa-j ' thy" stands out and above all words , dear to man. Wo sympathize with I each other in joy and happiness, that is easy; but let misfortune! come, let everything grow dark 1 i around us, then comes the test.) The force is greater, the strength then must he greater also. When man can stand to man in sorrow, and weep with himt then and there are enacted dot ds that touch heaven in their sublimity. And a touch of 'sorrow binds hearts closer to each j j other than any other force in the world; a clasp of the hand, and an J ! honest look into the face with eyes I already overflowing, and the transI action is done. About ninetei 11 hundred years ago, a certain man ' stood beside a woman before the 1 tomb of her brother, and he wept. ') Why did he weep.' Because she ? t . 1 1 1 . .1 I | was weeping, ana mat one ueeu rested and cased oFttieir pain, i Common is the old saying that when wo laugh the world laughs with us, hut when wo cry, we cry alone. It is the supreme test. He ; is indeed a friehd who will stand ' hy you in trouble, hut the one that deserts you then, does not know the meaning of friendship. But man's tears! We want to | talk about that inexplicable kind, I not when he is in trouble or sympa- i I thizing with a friend. Standing hy I the side of an old man in Columbia ; I during the reunion, the comment j I man was interested in the scenes i before him; hut soon his attention was attracted to the man's face, j An old soldier he was, feeble and j gray?too feeble to march with his I comrades in the parade, so he stood ; by and watched them. His hair ; was long and almost white, his eyes j I ! a steady steel gray, and his mouth tightly compressed with a show of! magnificent strength of character, so in contrast with his body. The' little girls, all in Confederate colors, J wore passing, and a half groan, half sigh, seemed to shake the old. nian's entire frame. His face was j i a study. A far-off, yearning look j affected every feature. Perhaps he was thinking of some sweet little urnnrt'liilfli'/'n f.ii* ntf onrvimiiVi/i... I dear ones, whose prattle had been 1 music to his old heart, whose petty wants, woes and joys had always! interested him, and on whom he: lavished his old heart's deepest, love. Or, perhaps lie had never known a child's love; perhaps no j tiny hands had ever caressed his brow, nor tiny asmsentwincd them-1 selves about nis nock. Maybe hisi heart was hungry?so hungry. ! And barren indeed is that man's heart, who never knew a child's love. So sweet, so simple and sp i pure! And when the little girls passed up on the steps of the State House, amid cheer after cheer, and took j their seats there, the old soldier i was hardlv able to control Ids feel- I ings. Then came the veterans, and | ] the hand played "Dixie," the [' thousands cheered, and the little | girls showered flowers down upon the gray heads that passed below j ^ them. Then it. was that this man, }, who had faced death a thousand ( times upon the battlefield, gave way, and the tears rolled in streams * down his weather-worn face. "Oh!" said he, "I thank God i there'll be little girls in heaven. I J. D. ARTHUR, Cashier. jjj E ters National Bank, ess at the "Old Stand."
