	To be honest, to be kind, to earn a little and spend a little less;

Loretta O. Douglass.

	No life can be pure in its purpose and strong in its strife

	And all life not be purer and stronger thereby.

	The spirits of just men made perfect on high,

	The army of martyrs who stand by the throne

	And gaze into the face that makes glorious their own.

	Know this surely at last.  Honest love, honest sorrow;

	Are these worth nothing more than the hand they make weary?

	The heart they have saddened; the life they leave dreary?

	Hush! The seven-fold heavens to the voice of the spirit

	Echo: He that o'ercometh shall all things inherit.

					--Owen Meredith.



Seward Zimmerman.

	Life is not a pain to be endured, nor a pleasure to be enjoyed, 

	but a business to be entered into with courage and a spirit of 

	self-sacrifice.	

					--De Tocqueville.



Mrs. Seward Zimmerman.

	Not in event, restriction, or release,

	But in ourselves are restlessness or peace.

	Rest where you are.

					--Anon.



Rev. A. C. Loucks.

	O weary ones! ye may not see

		Your helpers in their downward flight;

	Nor hear the sound of silver wings

		Slow beating through the hush of night.



	There are, who like the seers of old,

		Can see the helpers God has sent,

	And how life's rugged mountain side

		Is white with many an angel tent!

					--Whittier.



Mrs. A. C. Loucks.

	So let the eyes that fail on earth

	On thy eternal hills look forth;

	The dear ones whom we loved below.

					--Whittier.

					--Longfellow.	

						

Rev. A. S. Brown.

	"It does not take great gifts to tell good news in an acceptable 

	manner, or do good deeds in an agreeable way; but it does take 

	downright honesty of purpose, and  sincerety of heart, to do either."



Mrs. S. A. Brown.

	For the love of God is broader

	Than the measure of man's mind;

	And the heart of the eternal

	Is most wonderfully kind.



	But we make His love too narrow

	By false limits of our own;

	And we magnify this strictness

	With a zeal he will not own.

	We must have John Wesley, Pauline Pentescostal religion.  A religion 

	that will make a man sick of sin, and will cause him to abandon himself 

	to Jesus Christ, and be washed into Glory.

					--Bishop Joyce.



Mrs. D. W. Hendry.

	Fear thou not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy 

	God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will 

	uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

	And our lives would be all sunshine in the sweetness of our Lord."



Addie M. Pierce.

	Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love;

Mrs. E. L. Clark.

	Knowledge and wisdom, far from being one, have oft times no

	of other men.  Wisdom in minds attentive to their own.  

	Knowledge a rude unprofitable mass, the mere material with 

	which wisdom builds.  Till smoothed and squared and fitted 

	to its place, does but encumber whom it seems to enrich.  

	Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much.  Wisdom is 

	humble that he knows no more.

	Would it deprive your flame of light.

	Because another profits by it?

					--Lloyd.

		Eternity shall tell.

					--Langford.



Mrs. O. E. Joy.

	Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;

	Though all is silence in my heart,

	I know that Thou hast heard.

					--Francis Ridley Havergal.
