The Home Circle.

NOW.

If you have a kind word, say it; Throbbing hearts soon sink to rest. If you owe a kindness, pay it; Life's sun hurries to the west.
Can you do a kind deed? Do it, From despair a soul to save; Bless each day as you pass through it, Marching onward to the grave.
If some grand thing for to-morrow You are dreaming, do it now; From the future do not borrow; Frost soon gathers on the brow.
Speak thy word, perform thy duty; Night is coming deep with rest; Stars will gleam in fadeless beauty, Grasses whisper o'er thy breast.
Days for deeds are few, my brother; Then to-day fulfill thy vow. If you mean to help another, Do not dream it—do it now.
—(Glasgow) Christian.
