Bits of Wisdom.
If lueif would hate themselves as they do
their neighbors, it would be a good step
toward loving their neighbor as they do
themselves.
Those who dejend on the merits of their
ancestors are like those who seek at the
roots of a tree to find the fruits which only
the branches can produce.
The essence of the true nobility is neg
lect of self. Let ths thought of self pass
in and the beauty of a great action is gone
like the bloom a soiled flower.
An evil mind will be sure to put the
worst construction on another’s actions.
But a mind full of charity will put on
them the best construction they will
bear.
God will excuse our prayers for our
selves, whenever 'we are prevented from
them by being occupied by such good
wo-iks as will entitle us to the prayers of
others.
Ifyou Tiate your enemies you will con
tract such a vicious habit of mind as by de
grees will breakout upon those who are
your friends or those who are indifferent
to you.
In all evils which admit a remedy, im
patience should be avoided, because it
wastes that time and attention in com
plaints which, if properly applied, might
remove the cause.
The frost which nips the foliage of the
mulberry tree kills the silk worm cradled
in its leaves; so Christian calamity blight
your bowers of case, but it can not destroy
you.
Without an Enemy.—No man cun
dodge onemiea by trying to please ev
erybody. If such an individual ever
succeeded, we should be glad of it —
not that one should be going through
the world trying to find the beams to
knock and thump against, disputing
every man’s opinion, lighting ami el
bowing, and crowding all who differ
from him. That, again, is another ex
treme. Other people have their opin
ion, so have you; don't tall into the
error of supposing that tiny will ru
speet you more for turning your eoat
everyday to match theirs. Wear your
own colors in spite of wind or weather
nforiu or sunshine. It costs the irres
olute an I vacillating ten times more
