Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Safed the Sage, the famous parable-telling creation of William Eleazar Barton, emerges to dispense poignant portions of worldly wisdom. For the author, parables are an underappreciated method of tutoring others in morality, of introducing the comparisons and contrasts of life and its events, that they gain a grounding in dealing with affairs wisely and with discernment. For William Barton, gaining this insight via anecdotes is a stepping down to reflecting the condition of the heavenly kingdoms spoken about in the Christian lore. The origin of the Safed the Sage series ? which went on to span several books, that together had millions of readers in the USA and elsewhere ? is explained. Barton set about writing a modern take on old parables, wherein a man and wife travelling the country relate stories as they journey around by rail, steamboat or otherwise.

THE THREE HOLLYHOCKS NOW it came to pass on the day after the Municipal Mowing Machine had cut down the Hollyhock, that I went forth among men, and I met a man who hath much Worldly Wisdom, and my heart was heavy, and I communed with him. And I told him how I had found the Hollyhock, and had digged about it very early in the Morning, so that I did eat my Breakfast that day in the Sweat of my face, and how my Heart went out to the Hollyhock, and how I thought I should see Flowers blooming thereon, and how I returned at Night, and the Municipal Mowing Machine, which the Town had Procured, at the Request of the Civic League whereof he and I were both members, had cut down my Hollyhock, and left it to wither among the Thistles, and the Burdocks, and the Tall Grass. And he heard me, and thus he Spake: Even so is Life. There is no Law save Fate, and it Happeneth alike to the Evil and the Good. Thou hast spent Labor in Vain seeking in Thine own life to be a Hollyhock, for it is much More Fun to be a Burdock. The Blossom of the Burdock is quite as lovely as that of the Hollyhock, if thou only Thinkest so, and behold how much Farther thou Scatterest Thine Influence if thou art a Burdock than if thou art an Hollyhock. Not only dost thou Stick to people who pass, but People go out of their way, however much they Pretend the Contrary, to pick up Burrs and carry them away. And in the End, one Fate happeneth to all. The great, unseeing Municipal Mowing Machine called Fate cometh down the Concrete Walk of Time, scarring its Smooth Surface with the Calks on the Shoes of the Horses that drag the Chariot of the Inevitable, and it Cutteth down both the Good and the Evil. And who shall know, in an hundred years, whether thou wert an Hollyhock, bearing...

Book excerpt: The eloquent short stories and parables of Safed the sage - a character created by author William Barton - offer moral teachings and thought-provoking vignettes of humanity. Dozens of short yet memorable stories comprise this volume, which seeks to promote the virtues and good deeds that make a life worth living. Sometimes the tales are simple observations of life, of chance encounters and choices made that goes on to make a positive difference. Other times the stories highlight the worthiness of qualities such as kindness, reassurance, listening, and rendering assistance to those in crisis or need. Many of the parables in this text, while inspired by examples found in the Bible, are unique - not least for their setting in a time where railways and electricity were already a fact of life. In all, Safed the sage is a wise and eloquent guide, using his parabolic skills to demonstrate what constitutes the eternal attributes of human decency. Sadly, in the years following the death of the author, the Safed the Sage series of books went out-of-print and became rare. Today, a modest readership is claimed thanks to both chance discovery and the memories of the elder generation who, as youngsters, recall reading and benefitting from the values placed into these little stories. It is thus with a measure of pride that the publisher commissioned these tales for reprinting anew.
