HELPING OTHERS.

How pleasant and agreeable life
would be. dear boys and girls, if every
day of your lives you would extend
a helping hand to others. There are
many ways in which you can be use
full even going and returning from
school The good boy or girl never
lets an occasion pass in which the
golden rule may be put into practice}
Here is an example worthy of imita-
tom
The wind was blowing q gale. Peo-
pie were hurrying to and fro, appar-
entity thinking only of themselves-aS
people usually do when a storm is
about to burst upon them. The city
crossings were in a shameful condi-
tion-what was the matter with the
city authorities 1 cannot tell. There
was loose snow on the top of what
might be called a lake of slush, the
lake in this instance, at any rate, be-
ing deep enough to submerge the
"crossers' F" rubbers, and sometimes
his or her shoes.
From around a corner, almost blown
along by the strength of the rising
wind, came an old woman with her
arms full of bundles. She certainly did
look comical with her hat pushed back
on one side and her gray hair flying
over her face, but there was pathetic
side to the picture. She was trying to
make her umbrella act as a cane, but
the wind made it contrary, so it Topped
about in an aimless way, and finally
fell down The old woman was dis
couraged, but she struggled to pick up
the umbrella, accomplishing the task
with difficulty, and while doing so
dropped one of her bundles. Endeavor-
ing to get this, all the others fell, with
the total depravity of inanimate
things.

the old woman in her perplexity? Oh,
no. that was not his way.

packages together, and made a sort of

response.

BOOK 2. CHAPTER XII.


That the desires of our heart are to
be examined and moderated.
Son, it behooves thee to learn many
things, that thou hast not yet learned.
What are these, Lord?
That thou confirm in all things thy
desire to My good pleasure; and that
thou be not a lover Of myself, but en-
deavor earnestly that My will be done.
Desires often inf1ame thee, and We
hementIy impeI thee: but consider
whether it be for My honor or thy own
interest that thou art most moved.
If l am the cause, thou wilt be well
contented with whatever 1 shall or
dain; but if there Turk in thee any
self-seeking, behold, this it is that him
dereth thee and weigheth thee down.
rake care, then, not to rely too much
upon any preconceived desire before
thou hast consulted Me; lest perhaps
afterwards thou repent. or be dis
pleased with that which at first pleased
thee, and which thou vast jealous for
as the best.
For not every inclination which ap-
peareth good is wherefore at once to
be followed; nor is every contrary af-
lection at once to be rejected.
Even in good intentions and desires
it is ezpedient sometimes to use some
restraint; lest by too much eagerness
thou incur distraction of mind; lest
for want of discipline thou generate
scandal to others; or by opposition
from others thou be suddenly disturbed
and fall.
Sometimes, indeed, we must use vio-
lence and manfully resist the sensual
appetite, and not regard what the flesh
liketh or disliketh. but rather endeavor
that, even against it's will, it may be
subject to the spirit.
And so long must it be chastised and
kept under servitude. till it readily
obey in all things, and learn to be con-
tent with a little. and to be pleased
with simplicity, and not to murmur at
any inconvenience.

against concupiscence.
o Lord God. patience, as perceive,
is very necessary for me, for many
adverse things happen to us in this
life.

THE LAND OF NOD.

All, mother, how pleasant it used to be
In the years that have passed away,
When the darkness came upon weary me
At the close of the hours of day.
When the prayers you taught me to say
were said
To God and the saints of God,
And soon as the candle was gone, l
To the wonderful Land of Nod,
In that fairy land where girls and boys,
And no older face but yours,
And no one to brighten our laughing and
noise
Or to keep us unwilling indoors.
We found the tits eggs wherever We
And the lark's wherever we trod.
And the thrush, II we whistled, would fly
to our side.
In the marvellous Land of Nod.
The flowers were every month in bloom,
And all of them filed with scent;
The hills were yellow with furze and
broom,
And the hedges by which we went
Were gaily Gecked with the trailing rose
And in meadow and field the sod
Was covered with many a blossom that
In the beautiful Land of Nod.
All, mother. those years have faded away,
And the gates of that land are fast,
Nor ever again my feet shall stray
Where they strayed at will in the past:
But l trust that some hour IN the times
unscanned.
When they lay me down under the clod
I shall see your face in a lovelier land
Than that lovely Land of Nod.

GENTLE WORDS.

Like glittering pearls from springtide
showers,
Or sweet perfumes from rosy bowers,
Or as the bloom on summer flowers,
Are gentle words
More precious than the honeyed dew
From flowers distilled of saffron hue,
OF rosy tint, or azure blue,
Are gentle words.
More joyous than the merry thrill
When warbling sounds the woodlands fill,
Of parting stTeamlet, brook or rill,
Are gentle words.
Lighter than leaflets of the grove,
Or wings of gossamer that rove
In festive dance by fairies worn,
Are gentle words.
Fairer than autumn's varied stores,
Or flowing tide that daily pours
Its waves around our sea-girt shores,
Are gentle words.
Lively as childhoods lambent mirth,
BETTING scenes of heavenly birth,
AS lights, to cheer our path on earth,
Are gentle words.

range for my peace, my life cannot De
without war and sorrow.
My son, so it is; for I would not
have thee seek for such a peace as to
have no temptations, or to feel no adj
versity; but then, indeed, think thou
hast found peace, when thou shalt be
exercised in divers tribulatiOnS, and
tried in much adversely.
If thou shalt say thou art not able
to suffer much, how, then. wilt thou
endure the fire of purgatory?
OF two evils, one ought always to
choose the less.
That thou mayst, therefore, escape
the future eternal punishment, en-
deavor patiently TO endure present
evils for Gods sake
Thinkest thou that men of the world
suffer nothing or but little? Thou
shalt not find it so, though thou seek

thou, they follow after many delights.
and withal their own will. and there
fore make small account Of their trib-
ulationS?
Be it SO, that they have all they de-
sire; but how long thinkest thou this
will last?
Behold, as smoke shall they vanish
that abound in this world, and there
shall be no remembrance of their past
joys.
Nay, even whilst they live, they rest
not in the possession of them without
bitterness, WEAKNESS, and fear.
From the same thing whence they
conceive delight, thence frequently do
they derive the penalty of anguish.
1t is just with them it should be so,
that since they seek and follow inor-
dinately their pleasures, they should
not enjoy them without confusion and
bitterness.
Oh. how short, how deceitful, how
inordinate and shameful are all these
pleasures
But thou, My son. go not after thy
concupiscence, but turn away from thy
own will. Delight in the Lord, and He
will give thee the desires of thy heart.
The flesh will complain, but the fervour
of spirit shall it be refined in.
The old serpent will investigate thee,
and trouble the anew; but by prayer
he shall be put to flight; moreover, by
useful employment his greater access
to thee shall be prevented

GEMS OF WISDOM.

after years of maturity. a curse must
hover over us. Let us not consider
that because we have come to man.
or woman's estate, love is no longer
due the watchers of our blessed child
hood. We are still children, in Ger
tain sense, as long as God spares us
our protectors. Be mindful of your
actions toward them, for when they
are gone all these things will come
surging upon you tenfold. You will
then see what should have been seen
while they yet lived. Too much love
and tenderness cannot be shown them.

ways be happy.-Young People.

What strange voice is this impels me
Near to God in all | see?
BE thou faithful" thus it tells me,
God is ever watching thee
In my childhood, when wandered
Through the woods or by the sea,
Still ] heard that voice and pondered
On the words it spoke to me.
When alone-I best can hear it
This unseen but friendly guide
Surely tits some blessed spirit,
Ever watching at my side.
Oft in hours of silent sorrow
This kind voice l plainly hear
From whose words new strength Dor

When my soul, with pleasure firing,
Through life's ways, where ere trod,
Heard this voice too good inspiring,
Then l knew the voice of God.

A VOCATION.

A vocation is a call from God to en-
brace a state Of life that is pleasing
to Him. There are many whom God
destines to be instruments of grace to
others, and hence He requires them
to live a more perfect life. 1T is with
vocations," says Mgr. Segur, "as with
plants. IN order that the germ of a
plant may grow and unfold its leaves
