The FALSE BALANCE.-Alas ! what
narrow creatures we are, after all +
How distinctly we can see the "mote''
in other eyes, so imperceptible in our
own. How easy we can settle the
question of duty for tried: tempered,
discouraged fellow creature, and what
large margin we allow for our own
weaknesses and follies. How seldom
do We reflect that placed in the same
circumstances, we might be even more
reprehensible than they whom we so
uncharitably condemn. God help us
all-what if He should so unsparingly
and unrelentingly measure our motives
and our lives? What If unworthiness
was the measure Of His daily favors
and recognition T? May the thought
stlfle on our lips the harsh judgment,
and prompt the extended hand of sue
cor to the tempted and discouraged
Fanny Fern.
