The End of Summer. The days with speeding wings are flying past. Summer is at an end. Autumn comes touched with beauty and with a promise ful filled, and autumn will bring to us the garnered fruits of the field. Autumn comes with the energies of men burned out and with the earth parched and dry —with list less woods and drooping flowers awaiting the final call which will come in a few brief weeks. So strenuous have been the days of summer that we almost forgot hew rapidly the season passed. We have complained of the heat just as we will complain of Ihe cold in January, forgetful of the manifold blessings that come to us clothed in the hot rays ot the sun. Summer is necessary. Typhoid is a dreadful disease. It is many times fatal in its finish, hut the man or woman who recovers be comes a new body in the world. All of the physical impurities are away. The tire of fever does its work. 11 burns slowly, but if we withstand the torture we have much to be thankful for, and wd can take up the threads of our tangled yesterdays, remade and rejuvenated. So it is with the world. When the days of July and August are counted among the yesterdays, while we still suffer from the heat that inevitably lingers on through September, we can feel content that the firce heat of sum mer has purged the earth —that the ground lias been parched for a purpose—and when the chilly winds of winter come and the warm rains of spring fall the scheme of nature will have been fulfili d, and theearth onceiagain will 'ft a tier bou ’ y for the sustenahete vk man kind. Summer is gone. We view the end with gratification and with re gret. We Tnstrnctively feel that our lives are passing like the days of summer. Some of us have en tered the autumn season of life; some of us still linger in the dy ing days of summer. To such the passing season will appeal, be cause it is so like the passing of youth and the silent approach of the time that marshals us into the grey-haired days of winter. — Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
