WHICH WORLD?

A LADY was once urging upon a mother some fashionable mode of education for her daughter, and to enforce her appeal made this plea: “Without this your daughter will never succeed in this world.” The mother quietly and wisely replied, “I am not training my daughter for this world.” What a fitting rebuke to the low standard of the other! How few there are who maintain this purpose and are willing openly to avow it in the face of worldly influences! Let us take as the standard for ourselves and our children, not “worldliness,” but what the Christian Weekly very aptly styles “other-worldliness.”
