Let us be of good cheer, remember that the misfortunes hardest to bear are those which never come. It is not a difficult matter to find the good in othersand there is some good in every onesome ray from the divine countenance illuminates the face of every creature made to the “image and likeness.”— Mary Doran. Nothing in human experience is more significant or more beautiful than the gradual transformation of things, persons, and experiences at first slighted or passed by as common and uninteresting into things, persons, and experiences noble and inspiring. The young world dreamed of its Christ as coming in majesty of form and clothed with all the visible signs of sovereignty ; but the Christ came in guise so humble and in conditions so obscure that they only discerned the divinity who had caught the great truth that in .the human the divine is veiled and hidden.—Mabie,
