INTRODUCTION

This book claims only to give "glimpses." In these hurried days many people have time to read only paragraphs.

Ofttimes it happens, too, that merely in a few well-chosen sentences, a lesson is taught or an inspiration given which helps and blesses a life for many days.

Many of the paragraphs here gathered contain incidents or illustrations through and by which the truth is presented.

Everyone knows the value of good illustrations . They help to make the teaching clear, and they help to fix the lesson in the memory.

For this purpose, among others, it is hoped that these "glimpses" may prove of value.

The book is sent out in the loving hope that its words may stimulate many to a truer, better, richer, holier life. In this earthly state, with its hindrances and weights, we need to be reminded continually that, "he most lives who . . .

thinks most,

feels the noblest,

acts the best."
