THE POWER OF A GREAT EXAMPLE
There is nothing that will let the light
into the soul like personal influence:
nothing that can lift one up out of the
darkness, and lean one into the divine
and quickening light, and babtize one
in the spirit OF faith, hope, love, and
charity, like the magic rays of healing
and helping that beam out of the ewes
of noble men and women. If your life
has been deep aud broad in its experi-
ence, then you have seen lives that were
better then yours; lives whose pure
light shone upon you from serener nights
than you could reach, and touched YOU
and warmed you through and through:
Just as the dropping flowers, some chilly
morning, have looked up through the
thick fOgs and cOught glimpse of the
bright sun, which scatters the mists and
opens the glad blossoms to the warm.

Who has not looked up from his little
world and seen no cheering
sun above him-nOthing but a
heavy, leaden sky hanging over? And

clouds break away, the fOgs lift, and
doubt vanish before the beautiful radi-
