LIFE’S DAILY ROUND.
FROM AFAR.
More tlinii clouds of purple trail In the gold of setting day; More than gleam of wing or sail Beckon Ifrom the sen-mist gray Glimpses of immortal voutli. Gleams and glories seen and flown, Far-heard voices sweet with truth, Airs trim viewless Eden blown. —J. G. Whittier.
Few things are /impracticable in themselves; and it is for want of application rather than of means, that men fail of success.
—Rochefoucauld
A jewel is a jewel still, though lying in the dust, And sand is sand, though up to.heaven by tempest thrust.
Let mystery have its place in you ; do not be always turning up your whole soil with the ploughshare of selfexamination, but leave a fallow corner in your heart ready for any seed the winds may bring, and reserve a nook of shadow for the passing bird.
—Amiel
