His heart claims that sacred spot where the ashes of his fathers lie where his own cradle stood where he dreamed the happy dreams of youth, and where nature itself bears a mark of his manhood's toil. The idea were worse than the old migration of nations was. Nothing but despotism would rise out of such a fanatical strife of all mankind. And really it is very curious.
No!" continued Brandon, after a momentary pause, and in a tone milder and gayer, though not less characteristic of the man's stubbornness of will, "after losing all youth's enjoyments and manhood's leisure, in order that in age the mind, the all-conquering mind, should break its way at last into the applauding opinions of men, I should be an effeminate idler indeed, did I suffer, so long as its jarring parts hold together, or so long as I have the power to command its members, this weak body to frustrate the labour of its better and nobler portion, and command that which it is ordained to serve."
Blessed they who begin as 'little children, with the forgiveness of sin and the knowledge of the Father, and who go on, as 'young men, to overcome the Evil One, and end, as 'fathers, with the deeper knowledge of Him who is 'from the beginning, which is the reward of childhood's trust and manhood's struggles!
As once before this woman had aroused him to assert his manhood's strength, she called now to all that was finest and truest in the depth of his being. "You are always right, Helen," he said, almost reverently. "No, Larry," she answered quickly, "but you know that I am right in this." "I will free Kitty from her promise at once," he said, as though to end the matter. Helen answered quickly.
With one accord they ran forward to the net, pausing a second to glance about enquiringly, and then, one impulse guiding, kissed each other ecstatically. "The very first time I have beaten you, David," exulted the girl. "Isn't everything glorious?" she demanded, with all of youth's enthusiasm. "Just glorious," came the ready answer, with all of mature manhood's response to girlish youth.
How it qualifies her for being the priestess of the temple of home; the gentle nurse of helpless infancy, manhood's counsellor and comforter! "O Woman! Woman! thou wast made, Like heaven's own pure and lovely light, To cheer life's dark and desert shade, And guide man's erring footsteps right."
Perhaps, with manhood's love was also dawning manhood's pride. "There must be some reason for this," he said at last. "If I am dear to you, though ever so little, a stronger love for me might come in time. Will it be so?" "No, never!" "Are you quite sure?" "Quite sure." "Perhaps I am too late," he continued, bitterly. "You may already love some one else. Tell me, I have a right to know."
Emil Hahn, locking his front door after his full force of two women machine-stitchers, and opening a rear door upon his young manhood's estate. A modest-enough holding in the eyes of you or me as beholders; but for the past week not an evening upon opening that door but what tears rushed to his throat, which he laughed through, for shame of them.
In the full flush of his young manhood's vigor, there was the same modeling of the mouth, the same nose with finely turned nostrils, the same dark eyes under a breadth of forehead; while the determined chin and the well-squared jaw, together with a rather remarkable fineness of line, told of an inherited mental and spiritual strength and grace as charming as it is, in these days, rare.
It is a solemn duty to protest, with all the force of heart and conscience, against this dangerous gospel of sin, this "giving to manhood's vices the privilege of boyhood."
