ment on the pleadings and resolye to do better next time. So
the slate is wiped off again and we begin anew with another
stock of good resolutions.
This' may seem farcial, but it has a serious and commendatory side. It is an evidence that man periodically turns to
the good and revolts at the bad. It may be only a temporary
moral revulsion, but lifting the eyes to higher aspirations]
and nobler ideals, if only in passing, refreshes the soul and
gives a stimulus for better things. It is good that the moral
nature crys out once in awhile in’ anguish for wasted opportunities and squandered talents. Resolving to do better is
an earnest confession of doing bad. Ifthe exemplification i is
not as noble as the promise, it is, at least, an impulse in the
