DARK Hours. =. There are hours that
mark the history of the brightest year
For not whole month in any Of the mil
lions of the past, perhaps, has the sun
shone brilliantly all the time. And there
have been cold and stormy days in eve
ry year. And yet the mists and sha-
dows of the darkest hours were dissipa-
ted, and fitted heedlcssly away. The
cruelest of the ice letters have been bros
ken and dissolved and the furious storm
loses IFS power to harm.
And what parable is this all of hu>
man life of our inside world, where the
heart works at its destined labJrs. Here
too, we have the oNershadowing OF dark
hours, and many cold blast chiIls the
heart to its core. But what matters il ?
Man is born hero, and it is only by dalk k
ness end storms that herolsm gains its
greatest and best development and illus,
tration--then it kindles the black cloud
into blaze of glory. and the storm bears
it more rapidly to its destiny. Despair
not then. Never give up; while one good
power is yours, use it. Disappointment
will be realized. Notifying failure may
attend this effort and that one but, only
be honest and struggle on, and it will all
work well.
