Isaiah 60:3 And the Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. Miss Florence Nightingale, as the result of her wide observation, remarks: — "One of the greatest observers of human things says, Where there is sun there is thought." All physiology goes to confirm this. Where is the shady side of deep valleys, there is cretinism. Where are cellars and the unsunned side of narrow streets, there is the degeneracy of the human race; mind and body equally degenerating. Put the pale, withering plant and human being into the sun, and, if not too far gone, each will recover heart and spirit. In France there are hospitals where they trust almost entirely to light for the cure of disease. Surely there is here an earthly analogue to a spiritual fact. (W. G. Horder.)
