GRAINS OF GOLD.

Honest error Is to be pitied, not ridleuled. lu heaven’s arithmetic nothing counts but love. When you give others take some of It yourself. The enemies we should most fear are within us, not without Infidelity never wrote a> line that wa comforting on a deathbed. A baby aln has no more right to Un than one that is old enough to vote. No money can buy ®o much as th< dollar that has been honestly earned. No matter who has the floor, selfconceit will always find a way to speak All truth Is nonsense to the man who has let a lie make Its home In bls heart. The devil is proud of a grumbler; no matter whether he belongs to church or not Do not lose faith in mankind. He who doubts everybody Is himself to be doubted. We hate our own sins most when we see them walking around In the shoes of somebody else. Men are 4>ound in the devil’s ropes because they didn’t think it worth while to break his threads. Before you lose your soul In trying to gain wealth, ask the millionaire how much gold it takes to make ono rich. Courage to meet duty is power tc overcome difficulties; without this pr'nelple our strength is Indeed weakness. Listen not to a tale-bearer or Atnderer, for he tefls thee nothing Mi of good will;, but as he dlscoverei’.i of the secrets o 1 others, so be will or fnasa in turn. •
