CLOSING YEARS OF LIFE.
The Writer, Approaching go, Finds Con-
ISOLATION In the Church.

ISOLATION In the Church..
Il have read the Spectator many
years, but l do not remember an ar
ticle having impressed me more than
the one published in your issue Of the
18th inst. on The Things Beyond the
Tomb There are abundant reasons
in favor Of anonymous writing, but
one feels really anxious personally to
thank the writer for this paper, so full
of insight and sympathy. l was most
struck with his observations on the
views men take of death. l believe it
to be quite correct that no sane man
would like to live his life over again.
AT my age approaching Coz l can, as
it were, see the end of my life APP
preaching. The prospect gives me no
fear. AS one grows older the outlook
becomes clearer and calmer. | have
been a doubter. but like my forefath-
ers, / can now find consolation in the
services of the church. 1t is astonish-
ing how the ordinary affairs Of life
seem to adapt themselves to your add
ed years. Ones pleasures are quieter
but quite as enjoyable. To live in the
lives of your children, to watch their
progress, the development of their
minds, is n great source Of pleasure.
Then one has music, reading, garden
ing, etc. May 1 also add that I took
the advice Of an oF@ friend some years
ago, who said the two things most
likely to give pleasure in declining life
were to learn whist and play the yio-
loncello. These are simple things and
within the reach of all but the very
poor. The writer of the article quoted
with approval a verse from one Of
Bakers hymns. There is, however, a
verse in the same hymn still more ap-
propriate to my state of mind:
IF life be long, o make me glad.
The longer to obey;
If short, no laborer is sad
To end the toilsome day."
Letter in London Spectator.
