I Here is a good slice of advice for [ those of us who frequently feel that our work is too exacting. Some phil . osopher says you should thank God every morning when you get up that you have something to do during the day which must lie done whether you like it or not. Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will culti vate in you temperance and self-con-trol, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and contentment, and a hundred other virtues which the idle never know.
