It does its own particular work, singing as it works, going in bands and working in unity for the filling of the hivewith honey. Gos- pel bees fulfil the same laws. A bee has power, mind and joy.

All true courtesy springs from the heart. A happy fireside is better than a, big bank account.. We follow example much more readily than we obey command. No entertainment is so cheap as reading nor any pleasure so lasting. Vigorous minds very rarely sink into imbecility, even in extreme age. Be what you are. This is the first steptoward becoming better than you are. An ounce of solid home work is worth more than a pound of conven- tion enthusiasm.

Vain is it, at wide intervals, to say, "I'll save this year," if at each narrow interval you do not say, "I'll save this hour." There is a great deal of talking that means but little and ends In. nothing. Not consciously insincere, it yet poorly represents the true feel- ings ; it merely dilutes the will• arid weakens the purpose. Despondency is not a state of humility. On the contrary, it is the vexation and despair of a cowardly pride. Nothing is worse. Whether we stumble or whether we fall, we must think only of rising again and going on in our course. Happy is the man whose courage. is equal to his knowledge, and is not merely an occasional stimulus to pre- eminent deeds but a continual factor in his daily fife, enabling him to realise in practical action his best thoughts and highest aspirations. .
