A kiud word costs but little,
but it may bless all day the one to
whom it is spoken. Nay, have
not kind words been spoken to
you which have lived in your heart
through years, and borne fruit of
joy and hopel Let us speak kind
ly to one and another. We have
burdens and worries, but let us
not, therefore, rasp and irritate
those we love, those whom Christ
would have us save. Speak kind
ly in the morniDg; it lightens the
cares of the day, and makes the
household and all its affairs move
along smoothly. Speak kindly at
night, for it may be before dawn
some loved one may finish his or
her space of life for this world,
and it will be too late to ask for
giveness.
