THE BEAUTIFUL AT HOME.

A MAN once resolved to seek and find the beautiful. He thought of the mountains of Switzerland and the beautiful plains of Italy and the forests of America, and other wonders of the world; but, before his plans were settled, a voice seemed to say to him, “Begin at home.” Yes, the beautiful is always with us. You can make the place where God has put you beautiful. If it is but an attic in a poor-house, or a fireside, or a bench in a workshop, or a seat in school, or a place in your mother's heart—make it beautiful. And the sadder and the darker the place, be the more eager to make it beautiful. Love which loves others unselfishly is the great beautifier.—Ruth's Horn.
