Ere we utter words of blame • It we would, how many might we Turn from paths of sin and shame Ah . the wrongs that might be righted If we would but see the way ! Ah ! the pains that might be light ened Every hour and every day, If we would but hear the pleadings Oi the hearts that go antra v. Let us step outside the stronghold Of our selfishness and pride; E t- t us lift our fainting brother* ; Let'.us strengthen ere we chide; Let us, ere we blame the fallen. Hold a light to cheer and guide. \h . how blessed ah ! how blessed Earth would be if wed but trv Thus to aid and right the weaker, 1 ii LJ !-> to check each brother H si ,r h • n I hus to talk of duty's pathway To our better life on hndi. n In each life, however lowlv, I here are seeds of mightv good ; Still we shrink from souls appealing With a timid "if we could ; ' But a God who judgeth all things Knows the truth is, "if we would.'"

In the United States we have -,- :uu;,000,000 acres of land, and only ei>dit individuals in each hundred of our population who are owners of the soil.

There is a feverish tendency übroa 1 to set aside the aged and to demand ; the services of the young. Now we have i.o objection to this course pro vided it is based upon Christian wis dom. But to underrate the useful ness of a man simply because he is old, is decidedly wrong. The age of usefulness is wonderfully prolonged with many men. We tiud many striking illustrations of this fact in history. The late Emperor William of (iormanv conducted vigorously the complicated afTairs of his empire until he was ninety-one years old. Leopold Von Ranke, (lermany'.i greatest historian, was an activr worker at ninety one. Banerott. tin luminous historian of America, now about eighty eight, i- still acti\el\ engaged in writing.
