Aud, for the first time in years and

long he remained in that bowed position
he knew not; but, when he arose, there
rcigncd in his heart holy calm. With
clearer eyes he read life duty and made
resolves to amend his deeds The wealth
aud power he once coveted WAS to him
now only to be used to do good, and to
alleviate ,as far as possible, che sufferings
OF others. He saw the world now with
different eyes, aud was surprised to find
how selfish and bigotcd he had been
through all his life. And, beside the
poor couch OF his dead, as the clear
chimes OF Tie Christmas bells sounded
in his ears, he cast away the DID, morosc,
narrow minded SELF, and determined, for
his own sake, and that of one still liv-
ing, to be better man And with the
resolve he felt an inner conviction that
in the future, which should be higher,
hoier, and therefore hoVpicr the Great
Master would aid him.
