The Touch of a Friendly Hand A gentleman went into a jeweler's jewel-er's shop and asked to be shown some precious stones. The shopkeeper shop-keeper brought forth a tray containing, con-taining, among other stones, an opal. As it lay beside the others it appeared dull and altogether of little value. Then the jeweler took it in his hand and held it for some mo ments, and again showed it to his customer. Now it shone and flashed with all the hues of the rainbow. It needed the warm touch of a human hand to bring out its color and beauty. There are human lives about us that seem cold and dull and lusterless. Perhaps because they need a help-' help-' ing hand from some of us!
