not exhaustive in their treatment of each topic, are also in harmony with the method of study here advocated. The book of Doctrine and Covenants, if studied systematically, according to the plan suggested in this article, or any other well considered plan, would be found a most pleasing and instructive study for many Elders' and Seventies' quorums, that are seeking for means to arouse and maintain the interest of their members. It would also furnish an unexpected strength to the missionaries n the field, or at home. Every young man of Zion should take a pride in knowing with some degree of accuracy the revelations of God to the Latter-day Church; and he has the right to feel the exalted pleasure which comes to him who, as he reads the book of the revelations, hears for a moment the voice of t4ie Lord speaking to the Prophet.

THE WAY INFINITE.

(For the Improvement Era.)

Infinitude, thine is no mystery, When souls merged into thee by ways of grace, Outspeed the thraldom of ignoble birth, And heritage, and smirching ban of race;

Pre-natal test, innate nobility. And feal servitude of steadfast ones He hath remembered it who tests again, Nor godliness denies unto His sons.

He hath remembered it who moulds the orbs. And kindles them with impress of the years; And man's eternal faith is mirrored there, Nor reign of priests disrupted from the spheres. Decree and fate —a trite phase they of earth, Which souls may span— and iron destiny; Aye, cleave their fetters and soar unto Him Monarchs of peace and gods 'mid worlds to be. Bertha E. Anderson.
