GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



Jan. 15 



could be overturned, broke more or less of 

 the furniture, and left a wreck we did not 

 forget for almost a year. Do you think 

 those children were "born that way"? 

 That may have had something to do with it; 

 but I think painstaking bringing-up might 

 have made good careful men and women of 

 them, no matter how they were "born." 

 If I went through life scattering things right 

 and left, buying valuable property and then 

 throwing it away, and buying and wasting 

 food, clothing, and every thing else in the 

 same way that some people do, I am not 

 sure but I should get tired of this disorderly 

 world and want to die so as to get out of it. 

 I do not think I should commit suicide, but I 

 might wish death would come of itself. I 

 could not think of suicide in my right senses, 

 for that would be flinging back in the face 

 of my heavenly Father the greatest and 

 most precious gift he has ever given to you 

 or me or anybody else— a human life to live.
