George Reynolds did not sink. 1t was
hard struggle, but the storm passed By

The good which we have done ne Shall

shadows and mists, have we also to sow
day by day our small seeds of gentle and

take root, or expecting to behold their
unfolding into blossoms on the river of
time.
o, ye who sigh to set your lives with
the arabesques Of great and noble deeds
who pant for broader horizons, and high
err opportunities, God has appointed you
work where you are.
Every day lifts up its white chalice out
of the night, and is held down to you
through all the solemn, sient-footed hours
for those small labors Of love, whose true
significance and relations we shall only
understand in eternity.
And in this small daily labor lies much
Of woman's work, and her sweet home in

her,
She may little comprehend what 81

ening influences she is exerting, and pc
RODS of unrest and dependency may fill
many hours with shadows, which would
be illuminated with JOY and thanksgiving,
if she could only "know as she is known"
But tie pictures of all lives are locked
up in the eternal galleries, and the angels
hold the keys, and when Gods voice
speaks the word, the door shall be open
ed, and wien we go in we shall all ''be-
