THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
After am.— Happiness. “As a man’s footsteps in tho dew of the morning are the labours of the minor artist; hut if he challenge surer feet and greater strength to pursue his quest before the dews are dried and his passing forgotten, then he also has played a part. The masters flash lightning through our clouds of human passion, ignorance and error, or hang rainbows of promise upon their gloom -, but for us of tbo rank and file, it is enough that wo make happy such ns have only head of happincs and waken the dayspring of courage in fearful hearts; it is enough if we kindle one valley mist with a gleam of beauty, or pour some few pure drops, of hope into tho thirsty and precipient soul.”—Eden Philpotts.
