GOLDEN SANDS OF THOUGHT,

Some one says there is nothing so pro-
life as little, known well,' and there is
weight in the remark.
Love is humble, and secures the res
pect and friendship of others but a
naughty man is disagreeable to all.
The delicate hand of princess may
launch man of war, and TIE voice of a
peasant bring down an avalanche.
The three most difficult things are, to
keep secret, to forget an injury, and to
make good use oil ones leisure.
Life is a soap bubble that arises out OF
the abyss of nothing; hutters moment
upon the margin of the gulf, pelishes be-
fore the breath of death.
A mans reputation has been very aptly
compared to a sheet of white paper; if it
be once blotted, it can hardly ever be
made TO look as white as before Apol-
ogis;s of yauthlul immoralities should
think of this.
Never find fault with girls, very young
girls in particular. if they are decided
romps; but be thankful that they have
the health and spirits for romping. Bet.
ter be romp, than have narrow chest
and flushed check.

TO BOYS AND GIRLS.

Never tell whole lie, or half lie, or
any part of lie. Many boys, who know
we'll enough what sneaking, dirty thing
it is to lie, will yet twist the truth, or de-
ceive little bit. This is about as bad,
and a good deal more cowardly than
plnmp falsehood. If a boy does some
thing wrong, either through ignorance.
carelessness or accident, and then tells
one half truth, and one half lie about it,
he might as well have told the whole un-
truth that he didn't do it at all. Now
see how the spirited, manly, true heart
hearted, clear-tongued boy will do after
an error; he resolutely determines to ac-
knowledge it without being afraid of any
body's anger-to tell it just as it was
I never in my life knew any one to be
injured for telling the truth in this way;
but l have seen many boy and man. too
who was looked upon with contempt, and
thought poorly of, because he would tell

The worst of untruths, are those that are
deliberately made up-stories about peo-

impure, and mean person. The liar is
indeed despicable both to God and good

more beautiful than strictly tru.h-tel-
ling young person--one who never varies
from the truth--who is open, candid and
above deceit. To become so, a boy should
strive hard should determine to become
so--aud he agM become so. Besides, il
is so easy always to speak the truth-and
50 very hard to arrange plausible false

A BROTHERS. ENDORSEMENT.

From the Ironton Register.
I have been asked several times, "Is
the above j. B. Dumble brother of
yours?' 1 answer, Eyes, certainly
why not?" In olden times. tire twelve
Apostles, surrounded by the most glori-
Gus association that ever hallowed this
earth, were unfortunate enough to have
one Internal traitor in their midst
There is full half dozen voters of us;
and we have one traitor. Nothing as
tonishing in that. 1t only demonstrates
that human nature is about the same now
that it was eighteen hundred and sixty
two years ago. l can write j. BIS his
tory very briefly:
When quite young he left the home
and counsels of good Christian father,
and threw himself under the fostering
care and teachings of Sam Medary-- to
whose coat tails he has clung eyer since,
through evil and good report. The result
is, he takes to trason as young pup takes
to new milk. He is dwarf physically,
Intellectually, morally-weighs about a
hundred-possesses thimble- full OF
brains, stuck between eyes an eighth of an
inch apart--and has now dishonored the
grave Of his father before the cold clay
that fills it is sodded over. Enough for
me that l don't do as my elder brother
does; and nobody can make me feel bad
by saying, ''Yo brother is traitor. -
