DY GLENN HERBERT, 
Op all the lessons we stand in need 
To learn while yet In our youth. 
The greatest is this, as I think,—* 1 Take heed,” 
If we would keep close to Truth. 
" Take heed I” There is never an hour goes by, 
But ?iri does our hearts beset. 
And wickedness, tempting, our strength will try,— 
•• Take heed,” or the Right forget. 
“ Take heed !” There are pitfalls along the way; 
Be sure that you Walk with care. 
Or down in their depths you will fall some day, 
And perish forever there ! 
11 Take heed ! ” There are thoughts that the mind 
debase, 
That picture some cherished sin ; 
” Take lived I that you zealously these efface 
N-'f harbor them e'er therein. 
** Take hec! | '* There are words that seer and burn 
That soli the lips of youth: 
11 Take heed” that never these words you learn, 
But ever speak kindest Truth.

BEGINNING AGAIN 
BY UNCLE rAUI, 
A Happy New Year to you all, young 
friends! May the very gladdest of all glad 
times make your lives pleasant, wherever 
you are! What could a kind old uncle wish 
for you more? Will not the gladdest time 
for each be full of what each most wants? 
the good things of many kinds which have 
most charm for little folks, and which make 
them happiest? 
Have you ever thought of one very useful 
lesson which the New Year always brings? 
It can he summed up in two words— Begin- 
ninff Again! It is a lesson young people 
especially should learn. They have more 
occasion than older persons to begin again. 
They are learning to do many things, and 
they may not always do them well, At 
every failure, partial or complete they must 
begin over. The second effort, may succeed, 
yet even that may count as nothing. But 
repeated trying will bring its reward. 
The seasons begin again, only to go 
through the same round of days they have 
gone through for ages. Are they not very 
patient ? Do you suppose they ever get 
weary, and dislike to begin again? Our 
lives are like them—they must start anew 
often, and repeat experiences that have be¬ 
come an old, old story. It is the same work, 
may be, day after day, year after year. Are 
our lives so patient? Do we not often get 
■weary, and feel that we would gladly take 
up some other labor? 
Yes, to the last question. We need to 
learn patience of the years. We need to 
learn so much patience that though we 
spend years, even, doing the same thing over 
and over again, we may try with each repe¬ 
tition to do it better and more perfectly. In 
this way the lesson of beginning again will 
do us very great good. Perfection is wlnit 
every boy and girl, and man and woman, 
should long for and strive for. Very likely 
it will never be attained here on earth, in 
any tiling, but we shall come nearer it for 
striving tiller it.
