Among the many good men and womeu who earnestly desire to build up their characters and increase the comforts and influ ence of their neighbors in the humbler walks of life, there are some who are so anxious to see immediate results that they defeat the main purpose of their lives.

The cutting will become a rose tree and delight the senses with its beauty and fragrance. But each must be given time -that cheapest of all things which comes whether we are or are not willing.
