orator declares that he sees nothing

Such an insensibility to worldly OBJ

men-certainly not without something

SY M PATTY.

The highest genius predicts the
most universal sympathy. A shut-up
soul and a shut-up oyster are nearer
the same level than the soul believes.
One can be exclusive on small intel
ectual capital; but only broad, far
ysighted minds can be inclusive.
What we call lack of charity is
usually lack of perception. II we

THE WORLD.

The years are passing faster than
they used; the milestones seem to
recur more often We travel, MANY
Of us in the evening shadows; We
look out on life and see 1t softer in
outline. more mellow in coloring, than
| of old. We are tired often now, when
we used never to be weary; the rest
seems as though 1t would be SWEEPER
when we reach the end; we are less
eager about the passing things along
the wayside than we were. But ever
growing in our hearts is the abiding
sense that though we see much around
us to dishearten and to make us sad.
though we can see no visible means
to right the wrong, no immediate help
fer much that has made life's journey
nexpressibly sorrowful, God will not
fail The eventfu triumph of right
is as certain as that the light which
falls upon us today has its being in
the sun.
We dimly begin to see that this
infant school of world is but the
training ground. We are passing on
to see the unfolding of Gods pur.
poses, not the finality; our very fail
ures are like the child's tottering
steps. The fall does not mean that
the little one will never walk erect;
but only the process of time can teach
the lessons of gravitation. We need
not despair because good seems as
yet held down by ill., God can make
no failure. But our lives must be the
current of his will, for then only can
we develop and help forward his
plans and learn the lessons that he
will teach us here.
II is this sense of the evolving pro-
cess of life that can alone bring us
courage-the absolute, blind belief
that, though we see it not, God is
carrying out his plans and purposes,
not only for the individual. but for
the great mass of toiling, suffering
humanity.
May we, when we are called to
pass to the next standard. look loving.
ly into the faces of our classmates
and feel we helped to make their les.
sons easier, as we go out. to learn
more of the will and mini of Cod

SUCCESS.

The success of mankind all depends
upon three things: The discovery of
the laws of its well-being. its freedom
to obey those laws, and the goodness
that will render obedience. No one OF
these three elements can alone secure
good for man. Freedom to follow law
is vain. unless man knows what are
the laws OF his nature. knowledge is
vain without freedom; and both
knowledge and freedom are useless
unless the heart has the goodness that
will make it's knowledge and liberty
pass into action. The Indians have
freedom, but they do not what are the
highest aims of the human spirit. The
criminal and the yagabond have both
the information and the liberty, but
they are wanting in that goodness
which can turn truth and freedom In
10 the actually OF being. Three ingre
dents must, therefore, meet to com
pose valuable sooiety-knowledg
freedom and goodness. Swing.
