FLOWERS THAT BLESS YOU.

Flowers flourish in the gardens of
those who love them. A pleasant magic
would be, if you could only flush flowers
into a brighter bloom by a kind look
upon them; nay, more, if look had not
only the power to cheer but to guard
them. and this you would think great
thing. And do you think it not greater
thing that all this, and more than this,
you can do for fairer flowers than these
flowers that could bless you for having
blessed them and love you for having
loved them-howers that have eyes like
yours, and lives like yours?

GO INTO THE WOODS FOR FRESH AIR.

GO INTO THE WOODS FOR FRESH AIR.
Go into the woods for identification.
Get away from the hard pavements, the
stony buildings, the severe limits of the
CITY into the soft air and rounded out
lines of the country. The woods are the
fountain of youth, to the spirits held in
check by stone walls and narrow streets,
and to the memory, which carries one
back to his boyhood DAYS. The trees,
the stumps, and the PROSTATE trunks
have not changed while you have been
growing old. There is the same old
seat in the oaken crotch, and the messy
bed where you used to lie in the shade
and dream the summer afternoon away.
The chipmunks are just as festive as
though the gray was not creeping INTO
your locks. and the birds sing as
sweetly as though it had been perpetual
spring in the woods since you were there
so long ago All, how all things grow
old and gray, but nature and her chill
dren.

REFLECTIONS FROM A SERMON

Behold, | stand at the door and
knock. Rev. 500.
A polite thing to do-impossible to go
in unannounced. Some cannot help
being poor but all can be courteous.
Cultivate polIteness.
There are a number of knocks and
different knockers. A rap may usher in
some one with a bill to collect. Not
always a welcome guest but often in
no other way can bill be collected, and
some times this fails. Perhaps it is to
collect the preachers salary, but be it
what it may it is usually annoying and
unpleasant.
A rap may bring before you the pc
culiar parsonage denomnated as a
tramp" who travels all over creation
picking up a promising living without
work He appeals to your charity, and
even though undeserving, the benevolent
heart is loath to turn him away empty.
A rap may bring into your domain the
faithful family physician. He comes to
administer good-extend help, and then
perhaps 10 save the life of some dear
one. He is truly your benefactor and
very few realize what they really owe to
the skillful family physician.
A rap-it may bring the undertaken.
Death has entered, and he is there to
perform the last sad, mechanical duty.
There is vacant chair, hearts bereft,
sorrow and mourning.
A rap, perhaps a very dear friend en-
tiers to weep. to sympathize, to cheer,
and to help Not your social, fashion
able caller; with a few cold words of
gossip and hearsay and then is off,
never to return until you have treated
them the same and return the call. "
Fashionable tomfoolery. Be friendly,
and be sure and call in true friendship,
lay aside formality, be genuine, 60
| again, go often, be true.
A rap-at the door of your heart a
| Christ stands wlthout-presents His bill
"a long one-your misSpent life, all vour
sins to account for before God. Must be
paid. He lifts His hands, behold the
| wounds see the blood-one dash and al
that account may be blotted out Ac
knowledge the bill and His blood shall
cover it.
| He stands as a traveler-has come
from far-comes to minister unto-comes
to do you good-to bless, to cheer, ano
to save. He knocks for admission Il
sympathize, to help, and like the physi
clan, proffers His prescription, not in un
nteligb!e hieroglyphics, but in plain
simple, effective words. Knows you
case-exacts but little from you-"Lool
and live" No matter how dark ant
black the lie it IS simply look ano
live"
He knocks as your friend. Is ther'
to bless YOU in life's darkest hours. i
able to help, no matter how dark thu
sorrow. He can soothe How grea
the darkness; He can bring light. HI
will never leave nor forsake you.
He has been knocking long Let u
say come in" We become like thu
people we associate with. Admit Him
associate with Him, become like Him
But one requlrement-open the door
He is knocking.
The sunbeam is composed of million
of minute rays: so home light must b.
constituted Of little tendernesses, kind,
looks, sweet laughter and loving words
