finally crown your efforts. If the
world despises you because you do not
follow its way, if you are right show it
by your life and finally the world will
turn to your way Of thinking and give
you credit.

self sacrifice, her love, her faith and
courage they will enter the promised
land that otherwise they might not
have reached. And not her children
only, but all with whom she comes in
contact, will be upiifled and strength
ened by her purity and steadfastness.
Be content then, to live each hour,
each day, gathering up the frag-

make those who come after you "bet.

BEAUTIFUL HANDS

Such beautiful, beautiful hands,
They're neither white nor small.
And you, know, would scarcely think
That they were fair at all.
I've looked on hands whose form and
hue
A sculptors dream might be,
Yet are these aged wrinkIed hands
Most beautiful to me.
Such beautiful, beautiful hands
Though heart were weary and sad
These patient hands kept toiIing on,
That the children might be glad.
almost weep, rs looking back
To childhood's distant day,
I think how these hands rested not
While mine were at their play.
Such beautiful, beautiful hands,
They're growing feeble now;
For time and pam have left their mark
On hand, and heart, and brow.
Alas! alas! the nearing time,
And the sad, sad day to me,
When meath The daisies, out Of sight,
These hands viii folded be.
But OH beyond this shadow.lamp,
Where all is bright and fair,
| know full well these dear old hands
VIII palms Of victory bear.
Where crystal streams, through
endless years,
Flow over golden sands,
And where the old grow young again,
III clasp my mothers hands.
