In all this, but a poor fraction of the consciousness of hu minity is awakened ; 'and the sanctities still lumber which makes it most worth while to live. Knowledge, truth, love, beauty, goodness, faith,, alone call, give vitality to the mechanism of : existence ; the laugh of mirth which vibrates through the heart; the tears that freshen the dry waste within ; the musia that brings child hood balk; the prayer that calls the future near; the doubt which makes us meditate; the death that startles us with mystery; the anxiety that ends in trust are true nourishment of our natural being.
