Labor is somewhat like virtue in one respect—it is its own reward. YVhoever would be happy, must know what it is to toil. One of the sweetest things in the world is rest, and none can rest who is not weary and heavy laden, Jesus Christ was a busy man, and ten- elevenths of his life lie devoted to manue I labor, and the one-eleventh to giving forth whal was the best part of bis life. Mark shows what a busy life be led while he was healing the sick and teaching man, but Christ knew bow to rest, and his cureer shows how faithfully he subscribed to his faith in the laws of the physical being by ceasing wholly at times from his ardous la bors, and going apart to be alone and at rest. This was no doubt tq him one of the great privileges of. would Know what the world is and and wbut life is worth, must know whatft is to work and what it is to rest. A good many of the rich are supposed to be enjoying life, when in fact they are deprived of the pleasures of the rest, which the poor man earns, but which the rich cannot earn unless he work for it. Idleness is not rest, and youth is mistaking life who imag ines the doing of nothing is a boor in itself. That is rust. It is mor al stagnation, and breeds disease and death.
