THE YOUNG WORLD.
From the outlook.

From the Outlook.
One sometimes hears the phrase. HI
Is beginning to take the old mans view
of things" 1t is not a pleasant phrase;
but 1t stands for a TACT in the lives OF
many people. What is the old mans
view? 1t ig the view of one who has
ceased to grow. whose ideas have all
crystallized. the sutures Of whose
brain. so to speak. have closed. who is
no longer accessible to the teaching Of
new experience. There are old men
n women of whom this is never true.
The physicians say that old age is not
q matter of years. but Of the condition
of III arteries; that a man may be old
at 40 or young at 80. Age is largely
q matter of loss ct interest: Of the
closing Of the mind. This may take
place very early In life. There are men
who In their youth are so old that their
emotions no longer respond to any APP
peal from without: for them the morn
ing has already passed into MONDAY.
When Dumas the elder was asked how
he grew old SO gracefully. he made the
memorable reply. Madame. l give all
my time to It,"
significant by experience. Some men
live In duration only; they do not at
tain the dignity of living in time. A
man who can give all his time to
growing old, will not grow old. That is
to say. life will never lose its interest
because experiences. will never cease
to touch him: because the wonderful
procession of things will always be
passing in front OF him and he will
stand at the window with undated
curiosity until his eys are closed by
what we in our ignorance call death.

AN ANGEL.

/ know not if an angel walks
Forever by my side,
With shining brow and hair of gold,
And wings SO white and wide;

With oul so crystal clear,

No evil can come near.
I know not II an angel guards
The bed whereon ! sleep,
Nor If whenever l do wrong
He turns aside to weep;
l only know her loving heart
Doth supplication make,
And when ] fail her eyes are diimned
With shadows for my sake.
l know not if when dangers near
HE shields me with his wings,
Nor II through all my falls he keeps
A hope of better things:
l only know that she has tarowa
Her hearts door open wide.
And taken me with all my enults
And weaknesses inside.
1 know not il he ever stoops
To lay his cheek on mine,
The while he seeks some human word
To tell of love divine;
i only NOW that when she speaks
Her accents pure Il FOND
Transport my thoughts into the world
OF heavenly love beyond.
I know not if an angel pleads
For me before the throne.
Nor II among SO many souls
He. claims mine for his own;
l only know whate'er befalls
My friend will hold me dear:
In this sweet thought 1 rest content
l have an angel here.
