The pink apple blossom Is Just out Of reach.
Though you stand on the tips OF your
toes
A lesson has nature she wishes to teach
You VIII learn II before autumn goes
strive not for the blossom. nor weep at de-
feat,
But patiently wait for awhile
All things come In time-and the moments
are feet.
Soon your frown viii give place to smile.
The blossoms will die. but the good fruit
will grow,
IL VIII ripen in sun and In rain,
The weight of the apple will bend the bough
low
And the waiting will be TO your gain.
Seek not the bright buds that will fade in
a day,
But await the sweet fruit God will send
The buds may be high and be out Of your
way,
While the boughs at the harvest viii bend.

Russian Railway Chapels.

The railway now being built across
Siberia is by far the longest in the
world, and is destined to become a
great highway of the human race,
connecting the east and west. The
long distances across the steppes and
the religious character of the people
have given rise to the chapel railway
carriages for divine service. These
rolling churches are fitted up like an
ordinary Russian church inside, and
they serve not only for travellers by
rail, but for periodical worship of the
Inhabitants of remote villages on the
great plains.
