14 THE SOUTHERN WORLD, MARCH 16,1882. §;tther L cd §emr>. ^skctl m\d Jftvswqred. 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.
