Fourteen Mistakes of Life. An English paper is said to have given what are called the fourteen mistakes of life’ as follows. 1. To set our own selves up ns standards of knowledge, and as sume that everybody else are idiots and fools. 2. Never to realize that other people are endowed with as liberal supply of intelligence as ourselves, and that they should lie so re spected . 55 That the personal pronoun “my” sounds bigger to the “first person” than the “second.” 4. To regard our own theories and ideas ns infalible, and that all others are worthless and not worth mentioning. 5. To endeavor to mould all dis positions alike. 0. To look for perfection in our own actions. 7. To worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied. 8. To refuse to yield in immate rial matters. 9. To refuse to alleviate so far as lies in our power, all which needs alleviation. 10. To refuse to make allow ances for infirmities of others. 11. To consider everything im possible that we cannot perform. 12. To believe only what our own finite mind can grasp. 18. To expect to be able to un derstand everything. 14. To live for time alone when any moment may launch us into eternity. The profit of a gold mine depends, not on the amount of roek crushed under the stains but upon the amount of gold which can be extracted from the roek. In a similar way the value of the food which is eaten does not depend on the quantity which is taken into the stomach but upon the amount of nourishment extracted from it by the organs of nutrition and digestion. When these organs are diseased they fail to extract the nourishment in suf ficient quantities to supply the needs of the several organs of the body, and these organs cannot work without nour ishment. The result is heart "trouble,” liver “trouble," and many another ail ment. 1 >r. l’ieree’s Golden Medical I Discovery, acting on ovey\ gun of the lEestiveand nutridv > n, restor. it health anil • ... r.
