Flowers will not respond to every body who ventures to work Tn the gar den. An ignorant person, or person of habitua carelessness does not make successful gardener. There are times when plants need something more than care, for they need nurs- ing; and good nursing requires pa tience as well as intelligent care. It is 1 just as necessary to transplant some
 plants as it is to let other plants alone, and they will not do their best without it. Plants are tender and they never do well with their roots in an unnat- ural position. They must be set with care in soil that has been fertilized with judgment and be nursed over any , weakness they may show. Growing plants is not fools job. One must be as sensitive to their needs as to a birds and see that they are well met It requires skill when you come to think of it to do the simplest thing right.

l saw a robin that had built it's nest right in sight of the highway and eZ cry passing boy the other day and I immediately thought: What fool ishness!" Within an hour I was asking myself why I had said that. when What confidence!" would have been a better thought? Being conscious of the peril because of the evil in man. we placed folly where perhaps trust would have done better service. I am aware some one may rise to say the bird is incapable of fOolishness or confidence. and all that I saw was the result of instinct and habit. I have no dispute with such a one; but believing that all life to the limit of it's capacity par takes of the divine spirit. I feel like recognizing the spirit of action wher- ever I am capable. To recognize it's trust ought in a. sense to touch our honor and prompt us to protect the bird, while to think of It's folly is to blame it for not having a low esti- mate of us which arouses suspicion and prompts it to hide itself and It's young. Heaven seems to have planned some things to awaken in man Q sense of shame. but man is too dull to al- ways get his lesson.

You may think spirit of revenge pays, but I do not. There is not a bit of evidence in the world that any one ever made a cent by it. There Is plen- ty of proof that people have been so intent upon making life hot for others that they have scorched themselves. Getting into furore or a sweat about the wrongs which have been done you is a fools occupation. Nothing affords so mach pleasure to the mean soul as to know the enemy is writhing,: and no disappointment is so deep as that of a reVengeful person when his mean ness shows no sting. It takes two to create real savage conditions. and any man can decline to be a partner with out saying a word. Your enemy does not know where he is at if you take no notice of him. Rage unnoticed quick ly spends it's force. Don't be too spir- ited-let the testy fret and fume. For 1000 years it has been known that wrath originates in folly and ends in repentance.

lt has always seemed to me an amaz- ing pity that so few people seem to get real and definite help from their religion. They have the form of God Illness without the power. Instead of being source of energy and inspira- ton faith becomes a mere decorum. Religion means to them apparently d certain set of observations and duties rather than q mighty spirit of power that is to quicken their wills and warm their hearts and strengthen both moral and physical muscles. They seem not to find themselves better both in mind and body because they believe in God. They come to church not expecting much and thelr expectations are met.
 One who really makes the test will arrive at quite a different experience. He will find his Christian faith im- mensely helpful at every point. \ new found source of energy permsates cv- cry department of his being. He will prove the truth of the ancient word: They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up on wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint That fife be given just this touch of victory and power IS the craving in millions of hearts at this hour. They are all about us whose strength is spent, not only weary with running. but faint with walking. They will follow any leader and subscribe to any cult that will give them courage for the daily task.
 We are recovering in our time a sense of religion as a ministry to the whole man. his body as well as his spirit. We are gbing to tell men that God is with us for the cure of all the ills from which we suffer. There is no therapeutic known equal to faith. Nothing can so drive out the demons of worry and temptation and disease and set the uplifted soul in a clean and new furnished physical house. Nothing can so set one free from the bondage of evil habit and make him in truth the master of his fate. We have held it true in theory, but have not always acted on it in practice.
 One may not always realize what burdens can be carried if the stars are hitched to our wagon.
