AUTUMN REVERIES 
(Continued from first page, third column) 
“When a man finds some habit or 
indulgence, no matter how harmless 
in itself, is getting the mastery of 
him, it is time to swear’ off,” said 
a man of strong passions and equal- 
ly strong will; “all things are law- 
ful to me, but I will not be brought 
under the power of any.” 
We hear much of double person- 
ality, sub-liminal consciousness, 
and so forth; but these are simply 
new names for mental phenomena 
that have long been subjects of 
speculation; it does not explain 
things to describe them or to name 
them; the mysteries remain and are 
likely to, though high-sounding 
names deceive many with the idea. 
that they understand. them. 
It would seem that much philan- 
thropic and Christian work must 
have a good deal of trumpet-blow- 
ing in order to success; it is won- 
derful how noiselessly the great 
works of Nature go, on, and how 
calmly and quietly the greatest 
souls have gone about their task. 
Our work, if it be worthy of 
praise, will sooner or later speak 
for itself; we need not herald it or 
’ report it; the stones of the field and 
the birds of the air will proclaim 
it. 
Even November, with its chilling 
winds and naked woods and mead- 
ows brown and sere, has its com- 
penstions; indoor comforts and 
‘fireside pleasures are never so at- 
tractive as in these shortening days 
and waning light when the snow- 
flakes begin to sift down from the 
gray sky and the wild geese with 
noisy clang or drive their black 
wedge through the air. And then 
there is that home festival, Thanks- 
giving, the cheeriest, gladdest holi- 
day of the whole year. 
With what tenacity some of our 
habits cling to us like the last 
leaves on the branch from which 
the others have been storm-swept 
or have loosened their hold and 
dropped to the ground; and some 
will yield only when new life pulses 
through trunk and bough and out- 
most twig, and pushes them off to 
make room for the new growth; to 
get a new life within is better than 
all mere external reform and disci- 
pline. 
The few flowers that still bravely 
lift their heads in sheltered nooks 
and smile to November skies re- 
mind us how beautiful are the 
graces that bloom in _ adversity, 
more beautiful than those which 
need the garish light of prosperity 
to unfold in.
