Trees Known by Fruit.

Every tree is known by its fruit. A good tree is not that one which is merely capable of bearing fruit; it is that which does bear it. One may be e.idowed by nature and by education with qualities that make him capable of great usefulness, but he is judged, not by his capacity for usefulness, but by his exercise of usefulness. —Presbyterian.
