LOVE OF TRUTH.-If there is one
thing more than any other which we
should teach child, it would be a love
OF truth. All other things would be
worthless without that croWnino ex.
ceilency in human character. With
out 1t, the noblest structure is but q
Whited sepulchre. With all oualifica-
tons, man is to be Stunned wban
deficient in this. The beholder NAV
admire fabric of general beauty and
symmetry, but when the seam of false
hood is found running from cap-stone
to base, he will shun the dangerous
presence. There are few things more
painfully experiences in our inter-
course with men, thaii tefeel that thev
are unworthy of o1r c6inffidence-tbat 81
they are not what fIaey seem-tbat
they will betray- while they smile
that we tread upon i efater,s crest
where all is hollow beneath.
Teach the child to tell the tfrutlht-to
venerate and love it. Teach him. 50
that whatever wrong he may commit
he will promptly and frankly admit |
it all. Reward the honest Speech

HE SAcREDNEss OF TEARs.-There
is sacredness in tears. They are not
the marks of weakness nor of power.
They are the messengers of over
whelming grief, of deep contrition, of
unspeakable love. If there were any
arguments wanted to prove that man
is not mortal, would look for it in
the strong convulsive emotions of the
breast, when the soul had been deeply
agitated, and the fountains of feeling
are rising, and when the tears are
gushing forth in crystal streams. Oh,
speak not harshly to the stricken one
weeping in silence; break not the So
lemnity by rude laughter or intrusive
step. Despise not woman's tears
they are what makes her an angel.
Scoff not if the stern heart of man
hood is sometimes melted to tears of
sympathy-they are what elevate him
above the brute. 1 love to see tears of
affection. They are painful tokens.
but still most holy. There is pleasure
in tears-an awful pleasuse If there
were none on earth to shed tears for
me, l should be 10th to live; and if no
one to weep over my grave, 1 could
never die in peace.

HUNKS possesses a large interest, yet
he is afraid of coming to want. He

What an excellent member of society

honor of his citizenship In the soci-
