The Present MoMENT.--There is but
one moment fully in our hands, and
that is the present. If we lose it, it is
gone forever, and with it has flown the
opportunity il brought. The next has
it's own mission, an cannot bear the
burdens Of the past. We must move
quickly il we would keep ourselves fresh
and bright for the labors of love that
lie before us. They come in series,
each linz Of which presents, itself once
and no more. If we do not seize il. il
vanishes; another may rise in it's place,
but the one VIC have dropped we can
never restore. Life demands in all its
phases prompt, decisive action, and in
no respect more than in fulfilling good
intentions. To loitcr in this is TO fritter
them away; to postpone them, is to
Danish them.

BE careful how you allow yourself to

there was bright, talented boy coming

in by his teacher For bad conduct. As
he stepped into the street, a friend of
