THE DAY'S RESULT.
Is anybody happier because yjTu passed his way ? Does anyone remember that you spoke to him to-day This day is almost over and its.toiling time is through; Is there any one to utter now. a kindly word of you Did you give a cheerful greeting to the friend who came along, Or a churlish sort of "howdy" and then vanish in the throng Were you selfish, pure and simple, as you rushed along the way, Or is some one mighty grateful for a deed you did to-day ? ' ~f Can you say to-night, in parting with the day that's slipping fast, That you helped a single brother of the many that you passed ? Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said ? Does a man whose hopes were fading now with courage look ahead ? y Did you waste the day or lose it; was it well or poorly spent , Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent ? As you close your eyes in slumber do you think that God would say You have earned one more to-morrow by the work you did to-day ?
