A young girl was passing her aged great aunt
one day when she suddenly stopped, laid her
hand gently on the white head beside her, and
said allow pretty and curly your hair is, Aunt
Mary / wish had such pretty hair" The simple
words brought quick flush of pleasure to the
wrinkled face. and there was joyous culver in
the brief acknowledgment of the spontaneous
little courtesy.
Few of US realize the Gearth of such after lions
which the old suffer. Many of them have been
persons of consequences in their prime. As H.
ness and sorrow gradually weaken their spirit,
they retire into the background. They are no
longer pursued by the honeyed words which in

often they lipger on in more less cherries

On the brow of the Acropolis in
Athens. guarding the approach to the
famous and matchless Parthenon,
stands a little temple. based on the
solid rock. 1t commands a wide pros
pect-the sweep of the Attic noun
tains and the stretch Of sea at Salamis.
The Athenian of old felt within him a
thrill of pride as he stood upon this
height and surveyed the prospect. The
little temple was named the Temple
of the Wingiess Victory. II proudly
proclaimed that victory should never
take its flight from the fair city be-
meath. A touch of this indomitable
spirit and unconquerabie hope is need
ed in our Christian life and work to-
day. We are too faint hearted. We
are too easily discouraged. Every
Christian heart should have in it a
temple of the Wingless Victory and
should look out upon the rugged noun

determination to conquer.-Baptist In
