A Beautiful Life.

The years come and go swiftly
and silently; we live our lives
and pass away. The looms of
our lives work steadily. The
marvellous work of Strangely min
gled yarn, is filled from the wea.
ver's shuttle with threads spun
from daily thoughts and deeds.
Theses too are strangely mingled
yarns. Life, the warp is given
US, the welt we give, the finished
product, the web, is what we
must account for when our
work is done. The shuttle
moves smoothly when good deeds
and high ideals are sent through
the wool, but when sinful, self
ish deeds, and dark, unkind
thoughts we seek to Intervene,
the beauty of the fabric is spoil
ed, threads are broken and
rough places appear. 1t is to
think how few perfect webs may
be laid at the Masters sad to
realize how few are trained to so
live that web of priceless value,
a veritable cloth of gold, reflect
ing the purity the love and the
goodness Of each weaver should
be the finished product of each
life's work Let us ponder over
these thoughts and then begin
afresh this work Of weaving and
may our labors in the future
bring forth this untarnished
cloth Of gold.
