OncofBrowning'sgreatestser vices to his generation in the way c f mora i impulse is the clearness w Rh which he has presented the a i m 0 f pf e ils the development of the individual soul. Life to him means, above all things, intense a nd continuous activity; the out of the emotions, the gray¬ pling of thought with themost dif ticult questions, the answer of ac tion to opportunity, and the irresistible impetus which a great affection or a great passion gives to the whole movement of one’s nature. It seems to be the theory of many people that the aim of life is to keep out things, to hold care at a distance, to shun responsibili ty to get away from work, to shield themselves from all painful am j trying experiences, and to spend .\ theiv days on some quiet /, ls bunl . in . the ,, gieat , steam , of hu man action. Those who hold and act upon gucll a creed, defeat the very ends of tllciv life - hold that liar bor-bound which was mean for the seas; they keep that in tlie seed which was mean to come to flower and fruit; they imprison in the va gp the fragrance that was mean for the free air Life is to be sought, not to be shunned; and the things by Avhich it is developed—work, responsi bility, care, groat burdens—are to accepted joyfully, not to be sedulously avoided. He is the most happy servant in whom the greatest trust is reposed, upon whose shoulders the Ai eightiest responsibilities are placed; and he ought to be the most unhappy servant to Avliom is given, for lack of capacity, the smallest place and the lightest duty. That Avhich more than anything else makes great souls is passion for life; an intense and irresistible desire to drink the cup to the bottom, to find out all that life has to teach, to receive all that life lias to give, and to pour out iu exchange all that there is locked up in one’s oavii soul. The greatest lives have been those which have been most com¬ pletely developed, Avliose growth has gone on Avithout hasting and Avitliout resting to the very end and this is the only life worthy of those avIio Avere born for eternity. —Christian Union.
