Is Spite of His. faults.

It te a grave error to expect too much of onr friends; human nature is not ideal. Every one has something the matter with him. Loye him In spite of his faults. Your best friend will do things sometimes that you cannot understand. You can write this in italics: You never will meet the exact counter-’ part of the creature of your imagination; you never will find, In this world, any person who will fully answer your desires—nor will you fully answer the desires of any person. Others have to put up with disagreeable traits and moods in you. You may often, consciously or unconsciously, offend; you may have annoying habits which you cannot help, or of which you are unaware, or there may be moments in which you do not feel like exerting yourself to be pleasant, or moments of surprise in which you give way to long resisted temptations—outburstsof irony or sarcasm. Bear in mind your own frailties and your own provocations, and let the recollection temper your judgment of others. Your neighbor’s way of sinning may not be yours; but it is generally the case that you sin equally, though the method be different. Your virtues may not be his; but he has virtues—perhaps of a superior quality to your own. Find these, recognize them, and let his shortcomings go. As you desire charity for yourself, be charitable to others, never forgetting that perfection does not exist on earth. St. Jacobs Qjl cores Rheumatism.
