Kindness. Who has a kind and humble heart     Has greater gift bestown Than wealth obtained at honor's mart     Or power upon the throne.   The weary stranger, hungry, cold,     With thoughtful, low-bowed head, Is turned from mansions rich in gold     And from the cottage fed. __Colfax Burgoyne Harman
