The man with principle should take some interest in politics. Thorough humility is tho best preparation for true greatness. A story unfit for ladies to hear is unfit for a gentleman to tell. A gift that depends upon its cost for favor is seldom remem bered. When a man starts out Jo look for trouble he doesn’t get enough walking to start his blood to going good. Now that the frost is thick upon his windows the average man is yearning for an opportunity to make garden. A man who will listen to the troubles of others is seldom idle; the man who wants to tell his troubles has a busy time finding a listener. When doubt enters hope shivers. Christianity consists of doing, not saying.
