For The Mirror.
Gems.

Gems.
Not all who seem to fail. have failed indeed;
Not all who fail have worked in vain.
Greatly begin! though thou have time
But for a line be that sublime:
Not failure, but low aim, is crime.
Go make thy garden fair as thou canst,
Thou workest never alone:
Perchance he whose plot is next to thine
Will see it, and mend his own.
Our little thoughtless deeds of every day
are the stumblingblocks on which the weak
are broken.
When we crave the privilege of doing for
others, it is we'll for US to realize the priv
ilege of being for others.
If you wish your nsighbors to see what
God is like, let them see what He can make
you like. Nothing is so infectious as ex-
ample.
Beyond all wealth, honor, or even health.
is the attachment we form for noble souls;
because to become one with the good, the
generous and true, is to become in meas
ure, good generous and true ourselves.
