There was much merriment THE PRAYER CORNER THOUGHTS FOR NOVEMB ER It does one good to be alone , sometimes, to throw care to the winds, and to walk among the rustling leaves, ana muse pt life? its changes, its beau ties and its mysteries. Come with me into the dying woods, look how fast the leaves are falling ? how the winds whis per of decy as they sing their melancholy dirge for the faded flowers. But wait! among the * leaves a bit of color peeps, half sheltered by a friendly bush, a dear memento of the Summer days. How loathe is nature yet to lose the flowers she wore upon her breast. Be diligent after thy power to do deeds of love. , Think nothing too little, nothing A too low to do lovingly for the sake of God. Bear with in firmities, ungentle tempers, contradictions, visit the sick, ^relieve the poor, forego thy self and thine own ways for' love, and He whom in them thou lovest, to whom in them thou ministered, will own thy love and will pour His own love unto thee. .4 . ?
