So beautiful as longing
The thing wc long for. that we are,
For one transcendent moment
Befjre the Piesent, pooi and bare.
Can make iissneering comment.
Still, through one paltry stir and strife?
Glows wn the wUheil ideal
And longing moulds in clny wLat life
Carves in ttie marble Ileal,
To let the new life in we know,
Desire must ope the poi tul
Perhaps the longing to b( so
Helps ninkt the soul immortal.
Longing in God's fresh heavenward *IU,
With our poor earthward striving
We quench it that we muy be still
Content with merely living
But would we learn that heart's full
Which we are hourly wtonging,
Our lives must climb from hope tobefO,
And realize our longing.

Madame Breton patented a system
of artificial nourishment for infants,in

iVt ^h e age of twenty four, and in
the year 1730, Elisabeth Blackwell,
of London, published a work on

volumes folio, will illustrated, and
was the first of its kind in any coun

Paiis, 1712, was the first lecturer
who used a manikin, which she her
