Right Attitude Of Soul.

Prayer is above everything else the
waiting Of the soul before its God; II is
worship. The sweetest ex-
perience of soul oft is when one comes
to the Father with only the unutter-
able yearning of heart after commun-
ion with Him. Sweet is the compan-
ionship of those we love. Just to be
with them-just to feel the fellowship
of their presence-this is delightful.
So the highest reach of prayer is when
the soul longs for companionship with
the Father of spirits. The longing of
soul we must believe was supreme in
the heart Of Jesus. With far more
spiritual consciousness ofits blessedness
than we can possibly know, His sinless
being must have been thrilled as He
waited in communion with God. And
they who are most spiritually minded,
most like Jesus, find most delight in
prayer. Like Peter on the transfigura-
ton mount the soul voices itself, "I ,ord
1t is good to be here" 1--WE kneel how
weak, we rise how full of powerw

"Yes, sorr," said Patt.
He was duly engaged, and gave satis-
faction. One day his master came to
him in hurry, telling him to hurry
up and go for doctor, as his mistress
was i'll. Pat was gone for long time,
and on his master grumhling at him
for his delay, he said:
"Sure, they're all here, sorr."
"All here?" said the master. "What
do you mean?"
