In that simple and beautiful recoed of a holy life, the Journal of Jon Woolman, there is a passage of which I have been more than once remindsd in my intercourse with my fellow- beings: “Some glances of real beauty may be seen In their faces who dwell in true meckness.

On the other hand, there are faces which the multitude at the first glance pronounce homely, un- attractive, and such as “pature fash- fons by the gross,” which I always rec- ognize with a warm heart-thrill; not for the world would I have one fest- ure changed; they please me as (hey are; they are hallowed by kind memo ries: they are beautiful through thelr associations ; nor are they any the less welcome that with my admiration of them “the stranger intermeddieth not.” ~-Whittier.
