How great these profits must be can
be Imagined from the following fact
About 80 years ago the firm Of Noyello,
which used to print the companys
hymn-books ceased TO do so, owing to
some difference Of opinion, and soon
afterwards brought out u collection on
It's own account. That experiment was
a comparative failure, as the rival book
was adopted IN only a few churches In
this country Even so, however. no loss
was incurred by the publisher Now

idea OF what II produces.
Except IN the form OF private Chari-
ties on the part Of the owners OF

from Il Is received by the church, and
many people IN this country feel that
that institution ought 10 own It's hymn

which case, Il IS pointed out the i'm

devoted to religious work.

The history OF this company Is rather
an odd one II began business about

LIFE AND DEATH.

So he died for his faith That is fine
More than most OF us do.
But stay can YOU add to that line
That he lived for it. too;
It is easy to die Men have died
For a wish or a whim--
For brayado or passion or pride.
Was it harder for him.
But to live every day to live out
An the truth that he dreamt,
While his friends met his conduct with doubt,
And the world with contempt
Was it thus that be plodded ahead,
Never turning aside
Then Wen talk OF the life that he led
Never mind how he died.
