WAYSIDE MINISTRIES.
WORTH LIVING FOR. Lot me to-day do .something that shall take A little sadness from the world’s vast store. And may Ihe 'so favoured as to make Of joy’s too scanty sum a little more. Let me not hurt, h.v any selfish deed Or thoughtless word, the heart of foe or friend; Nor would 1 pass, unseeing, worldly need, Or sin by silence when I should defend. , However meagre he my worldly wealth, Let me give something that shall aid my kind A word of courge, or a thought of health, Dropped as 1 pass for troubled hearts to find. Let me to-night iook hack across the span ’Twixt dawn and dark, and to my conscience say— Because of some good act to beast ' or man—“The'world is better that I lived to-day.”
