He did deed, a gracious deed
He ministered to men in need;
He bound wound, he spoke word
That God and every angel heard.

If you are blue morbid respondent and
discouraged, get out of doors-into the
fresh air and take long walk. Fresh air
Is a wonderful tonic and a great braeeT; eT;
doses once a day, but a thing to live on
1t is as important to vigor and vitality as
food.
Take more leisure Don't willingly be-
come a drudge. This is largely in you
own hands. Take care of yourself. Don't
wait to be coaXed to do it, for that viii
never come; do it yourself.
Every nation has its sacred books, but
Saxon possesses in its Bible. What says
the Bible-the> Book of Books-regarding
love? In its Song of Songs the wise man
sings:
Love is strong as death,
jealousy is cruel as the grave;
The Goals thereof are Goals of fire
Which hath almost vehement flame.
Many waters cannot quench love,
Neither can the floods drown it.
In the first epistle the disciple, be-
loved of the Lord, writes; Beloved, let
US love one another for love Is of God;
he that loveth not knoweth not God; for
God is love-"
We all know or should know that real
life lies in service; that is to say. to be Of
some use in the world, to make other peo-
pie happier and better by our presence
among them, is the only way of being
happy and of improving ourselves, Ind
that not as an occasional thing for day
or for a month, but as the settled habit
of our life.
Hope Is Never In Vain.
Perhaps today is dismal day,
With never a joy in sight;
But tomorrow may dawn in splendid
way
And scatter your woes in flight.
Tomorrow may come with blessings rare
To lay at your feet, and you
May wonder why men sit down in despair
When the world is SO fair to view.
Perhaps there Is sorrow within your
heart,
AS your struggle along today
But tomorrow may rend the clouds apart
And fortune may turn your way.
Hope on. for hope is never in vain;
Though tomorrow be dark and drear,
Each hope of today is precious gain
To help till the skies are clear.
