ALL IN CHRIST.

By Alice M. Smith

A STORY is told of a famous sculptor, who, after having worked several years upon a bust of the Christ, was asked to make a statue of the goddess of Venus.

“Nay!” cried he, in answer to the invitation. “After spending seven years in gazing at the face of my Lord and Master, do you think I would turn from him to a heathen goddess?”

So it will be with us. If we have learned to look upon Christ as our model, we will not turn away to seek human examples, but will be satisfied with nothing less than the perfect Pattern.—Alice M. Smith.
