Suddenly there wai;.A scream of delight -15 she looked in-at the open door; "Well, J ' I do declare. Did 1 ever." That is all 1 she said just then, for she turned and jen'me hastily to me and kissed me. * She took me by surprise, for she quit . kissing me yearn ago. That kiss more than paid for the paint and the painting. These-little sweet surprises are ' . the best part of domestie life. They beat wealth and high life and 'political honors and fame and are the next thing to religion, fusr they are Sounded in ih?ve. ''All thoughts, rill passions, all delights Whatever stirs this mortal frame.. All are hut ministers of love \*xA f.uw I Wo fl .tr.il " These are the songs of birds hi live trees?the flowers by the waysidt that j comtort us in the jcwrwy of life. Song birds *nd flowers! There iB nothing iu the wide world that given such eraphneis to the love of (iod for His creatures. We need food and raiment and. of course, the human family would perish ' without them. But bird* and flowers the extra gifts to minister to our senses. our emotions. How fortunate for us that as we grow older we love them better. When 1 was a very busy inaa and had ambition to rise in the world and advance my wife and children I rarcd little for birds or flowers, but now they are my especial pleasure. Now I understand the meaning of that beautiful verse, "Consider the lilies how they grow. They toil not. neither , do they spin, yet Solomon in all Ins j - glory waa not arrayed like one of ! these." -lie who providelh food for ravens and takes notice of every sparrow that falls to the ground will suiely take care of us if we trust Him. 1 believe there are hut two kinds of flowers named in the Bible?the rose of Sharon and the lily of thh valley?and these two stand preeminent today for beauty and fragrance. Of late I have . been watching the rosebuds as they unfold their leaves and open into beau ty. mow wonuerruuy uiey are lorot-u upon the little cone nnd every layer is waiting for its time and turn to come forth and breath the air and take on colors from Clod's sunlight. No human Angers could refold them and make a hud nirnln. The birth of a beautiful rose is a miracle. It- passes comprehension and excites our wonder only. Just so is the feather of a bird. Toe microscope shows tho most Wonderful mechanism in its delicately woven fabric?its strength nnd Its gossamer lightness. Then look carefully at the frame work of the seed pods that shoot rip from the dandelion. Human fingers cannot approach them In s'ructure. They arc exquisite and must come from the hand of (rod. There is a limit to the perfec: tlorv of everything that Is made by m/in. but there Is none to the works of nature." The finest cambric needle looks like a blunt pointed Alo under the microscope, but the point of a bee's sting Is Invisible. 1 wish that the young folks would sometimes stop and think and study nature. It would refine them In thought and feeling and sxclts a t " \ H F< reverence for their Creator. How beautifully the great poets wrote ah nit I flowers. Ons says, "The humbli st flower that blooms sometimes gives thought too deep for tears." "And 'tis my faith that every flower enjoys tin? air it breaths.' Some flowers seem vain and sonic are modest. From my window 1 see the rainbow cannas and the proud and lofty dahlias struttintg to the moming sun and not far away are the humble violets half hiding from the light. Tennyson says. "Any nose can ravage the scent of a flower, hut only the oure in heart have a right to." I am an early riser and every bright morning I visit the garden and inspect the flowers that the night has oprne I and cut enough for a fresh v ise at the breakfast table.
