VIRTUE COUNTS ONLY WHEN ACTIVE
A noted Divine Lends Comfort TO
Lots of us Weary ones.

AOtS VI ub Ut0ty VnCss
The chief virtue of some persons
seems to be in their freedom frou
vices. To abstain from such appears
to be their ideal. They are too busy
with the avoidance of fault and
error to take time to do positive
good. No one deserves credit fol-
goodness unless he has strength to
face the bad.
Virtue is an activity, and the
person who has no other record than
the negative one of avoidance will
make poor showing in the great
day of accounts. The vice that is
simply omitted, leaving mere
vacancy in the souls existence, at the
hest counts only z-ro. But the vir-
tue that crowds vice ont and puts
itself into the soul as a vital force
counts, at least, one.
There are some whose difficulties
seem comparatively light, aud on
whom prosperity waits al every turn,
while there are others whose battle
Is ways in defeat and whose emer-
gence flom oGe trial is only the prep.
aration for their gliding into another.
What, then, is the true standard of
peoples DIoral worth? They are to
he Judged rot merely 10y the evils
they refrain from committing, but
also by the temptations they over
comt; they are hot TO be judged by
the victories alone, but by the de-
teats AS well. Many pass through
life with srotless characters but who,
notwithstanding, never struggle so
braveIy as ibuse who felt aud were
disgraced. The latter may have
called to their aid more principle
and overcome more evil before they
yielded than the former, either from
circumstances or physical constitu-
ton, was ever called to do.
Victory is nothing; it depends on
the nature of the conflict aud the
odds overcome. Greater generalship,
cooler bravery and loftier effort NAV
be shown in one defeat than in a
hundred victories.
OF course We are all clever at shift.
ing responsibility, and are readily
persuaded that we are to be pitied
rather than blamed. We are archi-
tects of circumstance, not the victims
of it. We may defy it, we may sub.
due it, We may "breast the blows of
circumstance and grapple with our
evil STAR" and yet there is much
truth in those well-known lines of
Burns:
Who made the heart, tits He alone
Decidedly can try us;
He knows each chord, each different tone.
Each spring, each various bias.
'And at the balance we are mute.
We never can adjust it;
What's done we partly may compute;
We know not what's resisted"
