Aurora heaved her orient head


ABOVE the waves that blushed with


early red,


With newborn day to glad the morsel
| sight,


And gild tee courts of heaven with


sacred light.


Need we wonder at the reverent wor-
ship which nations long ages ago gave to
the sun, and which thousands of people in
far off lands still give to that glorious
luminary, when we think of the many
blessings which it bestows upon the
human race The Sun is the very heart
of our whole Solar System. The source
and centre Of heat, life and light, without
it, our little group of planetary worlds
even could they still continue on revolv-
ing in their orbits-would be nothing but
a cluster Of. dead, black, useless balls roll
ing through regions of intense bold and
utter misunderstanding neither Vegetable
nor animal life upon them-but 10!

| Butafter all, revereDced and worshiped
as the sun has ever been. and enthusiastic
cally as it has been apostrophised, never
yet has there been meted out unto it, its
full need OF praise The world at large
has never yet known or appreciated its
full power to bless and to heal Some
few chosen ones there are, who have in
deed discovered this precious balm, which
is more valuable than silver or gold. Yet
free as the air we breathe. These few
have found out secret worth millions to
the world of life. Yet they have given it
to their race freely and without price l.
Still very few will even SO much as ac-
cept it, or give to it passing notice.
How many there are, especially among
women, and also among men of sedentnry
occupations. who seldom, if ever, let the
direct rays of the sun fall upon them, but



Come We oLt from these dark corners into
the free air and the sacred sun shine =
Come out into the living light-stand, sit,
run, walk, work or play in the blessed
purifying rays! Rollup your curtains,
open the blinds and. food your whole
house with the precious elixir of life =





Never live on the shady side of the street
where you cannot get any sunshine. For
even too much of this great iEvigorator is
far better than none at all. Plants will
not grow in the dark, and agriculturists
say that chickens cannot be raised in the
shade; and who is there that does not
know how much sweeter and better all
fruit is upon which the sun shine falls
while it is ripening, and what a soft. rich,
bright blush it gives to it, thus making it
doubly attractive to the eye and the taste.
Dio Lewis says the whole body should be
exposed to the direct rays of the sun, eve
~ day for an hour or two, in connexion
with some gentle, pleasant. and healthful
exercise, and he also mentions the account
of man who '.basked daily in its rays
who lived to be 100 years oldw Many
of our very best physicians have advised
sun baths as curatives Tor diseases, and
when all other remedies have failed this
has restored the sufferer to health and
strength.


Now ifsome one would give us such a
cheap. simple. pleasant, and easy rule by
which we could make our everlasting for
tune, what rush there would be for the
precious receipt. Yet how much more
valuable is health than money. ltis bet
ter than any other treasure the world can
give for we cannot enjoy anything else
without this. Indeed it is only partly
living, where one is all the time ailing.-
We only live full life when we are who
ly and entirely well, and have yet to see
the man or woman who is thus exempt
from pain. even for six months at a time!
By far the majority Of people, have some
one or two particular chronic diseases all
the time hanging around them. But the
day will come, when people will be as
much ashamed of being sick as they now
are of committing some other wrong, sin
or crime 1t is very rarely sickness
comes upon any one that cannot be traced
to some error in!his manner or mode of life
or diet, and when all learn how to live,
learn to take due sanitary precautions.
and live temperately and hygenically, all
will be well and consequently happy
One great step towards this reformation
is to become with the far-seeing souls
who have discovered this light and point
ed it out to us. Veritaole Sun-worship-
