Making a Stir.

People who are continually sighing over wrongs never mend them. But those who actively resent injustice of any kind, and exert themselves to do away with it, will often force other people Into activity in sheer self-de-fense. The other people would like to sit quiet and take it out in sighing, but these energetic fussers will not let them. At last, to get rid of the agitators, they rouse up, go to work with a will, and accomplish what is asked of them for the sake of the peace they obtain thereby. But whatever their motive, all mankind has the benefit. It is not only well to get wrongs righted, it is also well to get sluggish people stirred up occasionally. When a woman is in a hurry, she ties a ribbon around the center of her night gown and wears it down town. People think it is a white dress.
