You Won t Lose BY It.

1t is exactly so in every other
department. If you make your
employer do half your thinking
for you, you only earn half your
money.
Your life may seem a hard one,
and his easy; yet you will never
make your lot better by shifting
the duties he pays you to do upon
his shoulders.
Even if you are working for an
unappreciative employer, you are
not losing anything by doing all
your duty, mentally and physical
ly; you are building your own
character, and that will lead to
better positions for you by and
by.
Think about whatever you are
doing, and if you are merely sent
upon an errand, let nothing pre-
vent your accomplishing it short
of an earthquake or a tidal wave.
And every morning of your life
say little prayer of gratitude to
the Invisible Powers for giving
you something to do. No matter
how distasteful the work, how in
ferior to the employment of your
imagination, be thankful for it;
and know by this sense of graft
tude that you are preparing your
mental ground for better things.
Horticulturists and tillers of the
ground fish in the salt water for
seaweed and cast it on the earth
to fertilize it.
Cast your net into the ocean of
infinity, and bring up the seaweed
Of thanks for what you have; and
from the soil of your soul will
grow rich new harvests.

GONE
. . .
By WILLIAM F. KIRK.

STIS a word all men must hear
When they stand beside a bier
That contains a lily stem
Ger a form once dear to them.
Gone. a dream that was too sweet:
Gone, a soul to seek the Seat;
Gone, a smile that tripled mirth;
Gone forevermore from earth:
King or beggar, prince or pawn,
Gone.
TITS a word with meaning fraught,
Giving birth to somber thought.
Gone, a friend through anger lost:
Gone, chance you spurned and tossed /:
Gone, some high ideal you priced.
Some belief you idolized;
Gone, your childhood with its truth;
Gone, alas. your golden youth.
What a word to give us pause
Ere we act with scanty cause.
What word to dwell upon
Gone"

the work before you to-day
in the best manner and with as
much perfection as is possible
for you.
1t may be work you feel is be-

must be done, and rise by the ac-

your life full of hardships.
