fused to do their part, the whole would
be failure not needle would be right.
You see it is pains-taking in little things
and in sluall parts which leads to excel
lence and success. We are apt to slight
bits of work, thinking it is matter of
no account. But it is not SO. The de-
tails of a plan must be faithfully carried
out i'll order to make the plan success.
If the parts of u work are all we'll done,
the whole will be complete, and only
then.
And it is just so in making and mould
ing character. 1t must be well done in
parts, faithfully finished in bits, in order
to make n complete and beautiful whole.

In Church.
BY John HAY.

never may know the peace that sleeps
In the light serene of your kindly eyes,
AS rae as the sentinel-star that keeps
His circlng tryst in the boreal skies
Unknown to me isthe faith they speak,
And strange the flash of their silent prayer,
And the sacred JOY that climbs your cheek
To hang its Auttcring signals there.
AS the star-beams light on the tossing brine
And mellow the surge of its wild unrest,
Your eyes intheir tender pity shine
To light the gloom of my doubling breast.
And hope springs forth at their earnest CLEANS
AS a flower that grows from the sun-kissed
sod,
And love their light rs a beacon that beams
To draw me trustingly up to God.
fever stand by the Jasper rca,
Whose bright wavcr Yash in their awful
pride,
The mingled strain of my thanks shall be
That you have lived and that Christ has died
BY the lifc-atrcam gnssng the Edcn-Aowers
l will walk with on under sliaiowless skies,
And on forever through amaranth bowers
will follow the light of your guiding eyes.

second row being composed of iullgrown

most storny undulntions Of the main are
formed by the movements Of nuxilarics
