TOMORROW.

The setting sun, with diving beams,
Had walked the purple hill to fire,
And citadel and dome and spire
Were gilded by the far-off CLEAN;
And in and out the pine trees crept
Full many a slender line of gold;
Gold notes athwart the river swept.
And kissed it as it onward rolled;
And sunlight fingered. 10th 10 go.
All, well, it causeth SORROW
To part from those We love below;
And yet the sun as bright shall glow
Tomorrow,
The tide was ebbing on the strand.
And STOPPING low its silver crest;
The crimson seaweed lay at rest
Upon the amber-ribbed sand;
Dashed DER the rocks and on the sand
Flung parting wreaths of pearly spray,
Then fed away; vet turned once more
And sent a sigh across the bay,
As though it could not bear to 60.
Al well, IT causeth sorrow
To part with those we love below,
Yet thithei ward the tide shall flow
Tomorrow
Two heart, have met to say farewell
At even when the sun went down,
Each life-sound from the busy town
smote sadly as a passing bell.
One whispered: Parting is sweet pain
At morn and eve returns the tide :"
Nay, parting rends the heart in twain"
And i'll they linser, 10th to go.
All well. it causeth sorrow
To part from those We love below
For shall We ever meet or no
Tomorrow?

1t has been said, and truly, that a
man is bundle of habits. 1t may be
said, with equal truth, that bad habits
are our worst enemies. How they
steal on us almost unconsciously and
securely fasten themselves to US, What
tremendous efforts it takes to rid our
selves of them when once We have
yielded. In one of the great churches
of Naples / looked upon form of mar
bic that l shall never forget. The
statue is called "Viee Convinced" and
represents, in life size, a man strug-
Cling with tremendous efforts to break
loose from the network of evil habits

self-Reliance Necessary to Success.

Self-reliance, conjoined with promp-
titude in the execution of our under
takings, is indispensable to success.
And vet multitudes live a life of vacil-
lation and consequent failure because
they remain undetermined what to do,
or having decided that, have no conf
dence in themselves. Such person need
to be assured, but this assurance can be
obtained in no other way than by their
own successes in whatever they may
attempt themselves. If they lean upon
others, they not only become dissatisfied
with what they achieve, but the success
of one achievement, in which they are,
entitled to but partial credit, is no guar
anty to them, that, unaided, they will
not fail in their very next experiment.
