A SALUTARY THouGHr.--When ] was
young, there lived in our neighborhood who
was universally reported to be very liberal
and uncommonly upright in his dealings
When he had any ofthe produce of his farm
to dispose, of, he made it an inyariable rule
to give good measure, over good, rather
more than could be required Of him, One
of his friends observing hls frequently doing
so, questioned him why he did it--told him
he give too much, and said it would not
be to his advantage. Now, my friends, marx
the answer. 'God Almighty has permitted
me but one journey throgh the world, and
when gone, cannot return to rectify mis-
takes" Think of this, friends only one
journey through the world a.az
