it is for smiling wife to meet her husband at the

SHORT BUT EFFECTUAL DIRECTIONS
FOR VARIOUS ENDS.

To embitter domestic life-maintan your opin.
ion on small matters at the point Of the bayonet.
To secure yourself against candid hearing
call men hard names before you have sgnifed
To keep yourself in state Of discomfort
set your heart on having everything exactly to
your mind.
To involve yourself in inextricable difficulty
shape your course of action not by fixed princi-
pies, but by temporary expedients. b
To provide for yourself abundant matter for
shame and repentance-act under the influence
Of passion t..ssg
To die without accomplishing anything-al-
ways intend to do something great hereafter, but
neglect the present humble opportunity of use-
fulness. T9i m aa mS5a ;r
To gain extensive usefulness--seize the pre-
sent opportunity great or small, and improve it to
the utmost.
To govern children (and men too>--commend
them oftener than you blame them.r9ic
To be a successful reproyer-first convince
men by substantial deeds of kindness that you
love them.
To be always contented--consider that you will
never in this life be free from annoyances, and
that you may as well bear them patiently as fret
about them. lub gn.lS f7a8 gGl MH I,
When religion is made science, there s no.
thing more intricate; when duty, there is no.
thing more easy
We love women a little for what we do know
Of them, and great deal more for what we donot.
Let no man ever expect to prosper in this life,
or gain the respect and esteem Of others, without
on Undertaking course of integrity and virtue.
Never look for ancestors Of your titles, in the
imperfect records of antiquity look into your
own virtues and the history of those who lived to
be benefactors Of society. NJ ss Ef9y
