August 11

“This is true philanthropy, that buries not its gold in ostentatious charity, but builds its hospital in the human heart.”

HARLEY

“In his day men gave themselves, not a guinea, when an appeal was made. Love had not then found out that it could buy itself off for an annual subscription; it was mad enough to toil and suffer in the heat of the day. Only spiritual insolvents think of compounding with God for a guinea when they owe him their whole life.”

Dr. PARKER

“I am more and more convinced that the best of institutions must be a poor apology for all of us doing our duty to our neighbour as he comes along; though our diseased state needs them – as we needed Christ to die.”

E. B. BAYLY
