THE ERRING.

Think kindly Of the erring!
Ye know not OF the power
From which the dark temptation came
In some unguarded hour.
We may not know how earnestly
They struggled or how WELL
Until the hour of weakness came,
And sadly thus they fell.
Think kindly Of the erring!
Oh! do not thou forget,
However darkly stained by sin,
He is thy brother yet.
Heir of the self-same heritage,
Child of the selfsame God,
He hath but stumbled in the path
Thou hast in weakness trod.
Speak gently TO the erring!
For Is it not enough
That innocence and peace are gone,
without thy censure rough?
1t sure must be a weary lot
The sin-crushed heart to bear;
And they who have a happier lot,
Their chidings well may spare.
Speak kindly to the erring!
And thou mayst lead them back,
With holy words and tones of love
From misery's thorny track.
Forget not thou hast often sinned,
And sinful vet NAV he.
Deal gently with the erring one,
AS God" hast dealt with thee

THE MASTER.

There's an artist greater far
Than any child of earth:
His touch made bright the Christmas
star,
And glorifies each mortal's birth.
He draws the deep and vital lines
On childhood's careless face;
On brows and lips he sets his signs,
The hard won battles lasting trace.
He holds the throbbing heart Of man
In strong and tender hands:
He molds il as no other can,
Until at last it understands.
And all who win on earth below,
And all who losing, gain,
Must, dying, all his beauty know.
And bless the loving master Pain"
