Autumnal Reflections.

We find ourselves now amid the red and
yellow leaves of Autumn. 'Tis not much
frosty yet, but what cool weather we have had
has given the woodland thousands Of pleasant
tnts. Spring is beautiful. It's growth is
fresh and gay, but it is all alike. Summer is
beautiful. All nature has got on its full
strength and size. But Autumn is bee utltull
for all the varieties of color We may see often
within the range of ones own yard. Nature
has fine Painter. He knows all the neces.
sary touches, and spares not to put them on
And each one is suggestive. We do not think
it we'll for man to live all the time amid gale
~ ard life. Nor is it well for US TO spend all
cur moments in scenes which might cali for
the exhbl, Of our strength. But it is well
that while we have that IN the plcturlng of our
Father in heaven upon natures great canvass
which anlmates US TO higher efforts here, and
also that which inspires Us 10 the exhibitions OF
our mightest efforts, that we have something
to tell us OF our weakness and our end. 1t is
not well for life to be all a struggle. 1t is not
well for this kind of emotion to fill our bosom
Away. 1t is good for us to feel at rest, to feel
that the object of our ambition is gained. 1t Is
| then that the mind settles down into satlsfac-
ton and quiet. In Summer, natures end Is
gained in the full grown foliage and irni; aud
IN Autumn the truIt falls into our lap and the
foliage pictures to US our own end And the
| suggestions OF Autumn are not sad, really. Au-
tumn is as beautiful Spring tIme or harvest
Aud who can open his eye without seeing II
And age is as beautiful as youth. Aye, while
juvenile eyes and lips are watched with de
light, toltering uge, smuing as 1t goes, cheer
and blesses. +.
