Little Mlnlstrlea. A single word is a little thing, But a soul may be dying before your eyes For lack of the comfort a word may bring, With its welcome help and sweet surprise. A kindly look costs nothing at all, But a heart may be starving for just one glance That shall show by the eyelids' tender fall The help of a pitying countenance. It is easy enough to bend the ear, To catch some tale of sore distress ; But men may be fainting beside us here For longing to share their weariness. These gifts nor silver nor gold may buy, Nor the wealth of the richest man bestow, But the comfort of word, or ear, or eye, The poorest may offer wherever he go. -C. F. Ricl,a,,-dso11
