Father of mercies God of truth and love.
Another century Thou dost unroll
Before our wondering eyes. while soft bells toll
The funeral of the past. and from above
The changeless stars their eternal courses move
Around the dimness of the central pole.
We pray TO Thee.
With penitential soul
We ask Thy help. Oh. show how TO prove
Our penitence by grand new century deeds!
Forgive blunders. Father, show us how
To help the heart that in Its anguish bleedS!
Oh, heal the wounds of passion. May we grow
Better and purer the past recedes,
And in the path Thou leadest gladly go.

A NEW YEARS SUGGESTION.

II is hoped the following happy suggestion from
a Boston T. s. S. member will find favor with the
members of the society. There hardly be any
who will not remember one day of special JOY
when "she, too dwelt in Already, and no more
fitting memorial of that day could be made than by
contributing to the happiness OF some one else:
President of the T. s. s.. was greatly inter
ested in paragraph in The Tribune one day last
week. in which mention made of an actress
in Paris who suggested as a means for raising a
fund for an Orphanage in which she is interested
that people who had reason to remember any par
ticular day having brought great happi-
ness to them should send something in memory OF
that day. Now, would like to suggest that the
same idea might be made useful for the T. s. s.
If every member of the society would send a con-
tribution of sunshine of some kind on some cher
ished anniversary, just think how many people
would be made happy! And why not carry II fur
ther and send something the sad anniversary,
too. i'm that way Frightening the day for ones
self by making some happy?
Yours I'm good wishes for sunshiny year,
