ffubtisher's fflepurtmmt.
The sting of reproach is the truth of it.
Dabb to be true ; nothing can need a lie.
George Herbert.
An ill nntured old man or Woman is a
pitiable object.
Hk that reverences nothing, has at the
same time no worth.
He needs no other rosary whoso thread of
life is strung with beads of love and thought.
C'rkatk inme a dean heart, O God; and
renew n right spirit.within me. I’saims, 51;
10.
Sorrows are our best educators. A man
may see farther through a tear than a tcle-
scope.
No one is entirely surrounded by labor
but that he can talk with God at the same
time in his heart.
WKare not. what we are, nor do we treat
or esteem eacli other for such, but for that
we are capable of being.
“last men laugh when you sacrifice desire
to duty, if they will. You have time and
eternity to rejoice in.”
We should have all our communications
with men as in the presence of God; and
with God as in the presence of men.
Contkntmknt is a pearl of great price, and
whoever procures it at the expense of ten
thousand desires makes a wise and happy
purchase.
He who is false to the present duty,
breaks a thread in the loom, and will see the
effect when the weaving of a life-time is un
raveled.
To try to doother work than that to which
God has adapted us, is simply to break and
ruin some of God's tools and leave our
work undone.
Nothing so increases reverence for others
as a great sorrow to one's self. It teaches
one the depths of human nature. In linppi-
ness wo are happy and deem others so.—
Ciiari.es Buxton.
The more obedient you are to God, the
more obedient will your children be to you.
Thus in his childhood the wise Solomon
asked of the Lord “An obedient heart” in
order to govern his people.
He up and doing. “Life is real, life is
earnest.” Negligence now may place the
invaluable prize of immortality beyond your
reach forever, no matter how much you
might desire or strive hereafter to attain it.
The little dole
Of an humble soul,
In all sincereness given.
Is tike tlie wings
or the lark, as It springs,
Hinging clear, to the gate ot heaven.
There is no contending against necessity,
and we should be very tender how we cen
sure those that submit to it. It is one
thing to be at liberty to do what you will,
and another tiling to be tied up and do
wlint you must.
Kind words are the bright flowers of
earthly existence; use them, and especially
around the fireside circle. They are the
jewels beyond price, and powerful to heal
the wounded heart, and make the welghed-
down spirit glad.
Let us serve God in the sunshine, while,
He makes the sun shine. Wo shall then
serve him better in the durk when He sends
the darkness. It is sure to come. Only let
our light be God’s light, and our darkness
God's darkness, and we shall be safe at home
when the great night-fall comes.
Not only does all life liavo its poetry, but
in that very poetry may be found the best,
the fullest, and the sweetest parts of life.
He will discover this who is himself true
and bruve, faithful and patient, earnest and
loving: and of such a one it may be truly
said, “ His life is a poem.”
Humility Is the most ’natural cure for
anger in the world; for ho that by daily con
sidering his own infirmities makes the er
rors of his neighbors to be his own case, and
remembers that he daily needs God and his
brother's charity, will not be apt to rage at
the faults of another, not greater than those
which he feels that he is frequently and In
excusably guilty of.
An extract from a letter by ex-president
Hays is published in which lie says lie de
termined to exclude liquors from the White
House because of the danger of using them
especially in political and official life, and
although when he became president he was
not a total abstainer, he soon saw there wns
no half way course in the matter and during
the last three years of his term he was a to
tal abstainer in practice and shall continue
to be so.
