think OF that expression ?' l will now
1give my answer. ! think your teacher
was off | think he has but little knowl-
edge of psychology, and less of metaphy-
sizes. Anything that gives us sensuous
delight produces love. We love a noble
horse, and that animal may in some de-
gree love us in return, or have liking for
aus. Perhaps this is instinct, but let it be
what 1t may, there is a fondness expressed
for us by the brute. We love the fra
grance Ofthe flowers; the beautiful leaves,
its pistils, its stamens, corolla; we admire
the beauty of a landscape, and the pictur-
esque scenery of the forest; these contrib
ute to our enjoyment, and by their ap-
pearance produce a sensuous delight.
They cannot love us, yet they uncon-
seiously contribute to our pleasure. We
love them, merely because God made
them for us to love. The pretty lake
embossed by hills and wood, and studded
with isles entrance us, the forest, filled
with the fragrant magnolia, and other
congenital flowers, produce pleasing eff

OF waving grain, the pastures green, and
the golden fruit, are not only things of
admiration, to the admirer OF beauty and
the connisseur in love, but a source of
profit to the owner of these pretty sur
rOundings. And we know from blessed
experience, that person can love some-
thing "that is incapable of returning
love-" But certainly is there pleasure
in bestowing a love that cannot be re-
turned, there is happiness in love that
is interchangeable, reciprocal, returnable.
There can be no greater pleasure in this
world, than for two loving hearts that
truly beat in unison to be united This
is the substance of which heaven is bsiit;
this is the magic lever that moves the
world; this is the power that overcomes
death and the grave.
'Tis love that drives my chariot wheels
And death must yield to love"
1t has been said, ''No one can be I'M
happy who has something to love" Pos
sibly this is true.
If there is another accomplishment

Rev. B. T. Coursey, it is his promptness.
Before the ringing of the church bell the
ecOnd time, Mr.. Coursey is usually in
lis pulpit; and when the last notes of
he bell haye died away, he commences
o announce his first hymn. This is a
rait we admire, as do all other persons.
