The Warm Haud Of Sympathy,

Till we have reflected upon it We
are scarcely aware now much the
sum o. human happiness in the
world is indebted to this one feel
ing sympathy. We get cheerful
ness and vigor, we scarcely know
how or when, from mere associa-
tion with our fellow men, and from
the looks reflected on us Of glad
ness and enjoyment We catch
inspiration and power to go on
from human presence and from
cheerful looks The workman
works with added energy from hav-
ing others by, The full family cir
Gle has a strength and life peculiar
to its own The substantial good
and cffectual relief which men ex-
tend to one is trifling. It is not by
those, but by something tar less
costly. that the work is done. God
has insured it by much more sim
pie machinery. He has given the
weakest and poorest power to con
tribute largely to the common stock
of gladness. The child's smile
and laugh are mighty powers liz
this world When bereavement
has left you desolate, what substan-
tial benefit is there which make
condolences acceptable? It can
not replace the loved ones you
have lost. 1t can bestow upon you
nothing permanent. But a warm
hand has touched yours, and its
thrill told you that there was a liv
ing response there to your emo
ton. One look, one human sigh.
has done more for you than the
costliest present could convey.

THE CHARACTER.

Who shall judge man from his mannsrs
Who shall know him by his dress7
Paupers may be fit for princes,
Princes fit for something less.
Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thoughts and feelings
Satin vests can do no more.
There are streams of crystal nectar
Ever flowing out of stone;
There are purple beds and golden,
Hidden, crushed, and overthrow.
God, who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves and prosper you and me.
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man upraised above his fellows
Oft forgets his fellows then;
Masters rulers lords, remember
That your meanest kinds are men!
Men OF labor, men of feeling,
Men of thought and men of fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine
In mans ennobling name.
There are foam-embroipered oceuns,
There are little wood-clad rills;
There are feeble inch-high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills.
God, wao counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prosper you aud me;
For to him all vain distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
Of a nations wealth aid fame,
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fattened On the same;
By the sweat of Others foreheads,
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Vainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with lovliness and light;
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is sunny right.
God, whose worldwide voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Links oppression with its titles
But as pebbles in the sea.

Never too Late to Mend.

Popular proverbs are the essence
of wisdom. They are the gems of
thought-portable jewels-embrac
ing in a moderate compass a mine
of moral wealth. Franklin, the
most practical of philosophers,
we'll knew the value OF these golden
truths, and put a vast number of
these small coins of thought in
circulation. Poor Richards Max
inns have made an impression on
hundreds Of thousands of memo
ries that never would nave retained
an atom of hundred long homi-
lies on the same subject. Among
the many pithy sayings which are
common property in more than
one nation, there is world of
truth in the proverbial phrase,
"Its never too late to mend" 1t
has been the text of sermons,
dramas. plays and essays, and the
changes have been rung upon it in
a hundred ways, yet not once too
often. 1t is an anchor Of hope and
trust that no one can afford to lose
his hold of. Its truth srstains us
in the darkest trial of life. Some
have called it an anchor. We
might style it a beacon light, shin
ing forth in the darkness TO call
the wanderer back to the Path from
which he has strayed.
Look at yonder inebriate-the
victim of passion for the fatal
cup. He has lost friends, reputa-
ton, strength his mental and
moral faculties are ohscured his
trembling limbs scarcely sustain
body which is a satire on the hu
man form. Yet that man may not
be#entirely lost. To a lingering
glimmering of reason a friendly
voice, modulated to sympathy, may
in some bright moment effectively
appeal, and, whispering the golden
truth, sit is never too late Ito
mend,' rouse the slumbering man
hood, the latent strength, the bur-
dened self-respect OF the victim,
and bring him back to usefulness
and as much happiness as can be
consistent with a stained record.
The experiment has been tried in
numberless cases, and in the sim
pie words we have chosen for our
text lies the secret of the success
of SO many philanthropic associa-
tiOns.
"Never too late to mend!" The
sick man ponders the words as he
lies upon his couch of languor, and
they give him strength to struggle
with and overcome his disease.
Many an invalid has been more
benefited by these words than by
the prescriptions Of his physicians.
Instead Of surrendering at dis
erection, he has faith in the recuper.
alive powers CT his system, and
that faith is half the victory.
1t is the fashion to decry tru-
'sms. There are men who, if you
call their attention to an important
moral truth, will tell you, '.Oh,
hats old, everybody knows that!"
And yet the truth is one which, il
they recognized its existence and
force, they never acted on, though
standing in the most extreme need
of its application. The thirst for
novelty is as pernicious in morals
So in every other sphere Great
political revolutions become neces-
sary, and are carried out on self
evident propositions. The world
busics itself with fine-spun, hair
Drained theories, neglecting essen
tial truths simply because they are
familiar or old.
