We know only life here in this world, and, therefore, if there 

 is a purpose in our life, it is also here in this world. — Tolstoi. 

 O, Son of Man, 



Neglect not My Laws if thou lovest My Beauty, an J 

 forget not My Counsels, if thou art hopeful 1>. 

 obtain My Will.— Baha Ullah. 



EVERY ONE SHOULD READ THE BOOK OF NATURE 

 This introductory relationship with Nature is a resource of 

 inexhaustible delight and enrichment ; to establish it ought to 

 be as much a part of every education as the teaching of the rudi- 

 ments of formal knowledge ; and it ought to be as great a 

 reproach to a man not to be able to read the open pages of the 

 world about him as not to be able to read the open page of the 

 book before him. — Hamilton Wright Mabic in "Essays on Nature 

 and Culture."
