Hasty Words.

The evil that is in this world, that
rushes down our streets, devastating
home, running happiness, and laying
waste the pleasant place, has many
fountains. Sin does its deadly work
in many ways, and sorrow comes from
a variety Of sources. Hasty words
have much to answer for, among the
rest We are apt to think that a word
or two does not matter; that we need
not trouble ourselves TO be over par
ticular tbout what we say. But this
is only one Of our many mistakes -
Hasty words are always sure to have
little sense and less kindness in them.
They are not the offspring of meek
and quiet spirits, but Of hot, passion
ate tempers. "All men are liars =
Who but man in q passion would
have said that? The assertion is so
sweeping and unjust, that if David had
not confession, II said it in my haste, y
we should not have understood it
Perhaps the reason why such words
are spoken is, that the speaker feels
himself aggrieved. We often do in
this life OF ours; we cannot have all
we wish from our brothers and sisters,
and so grow fretful and angry. We
are unreasonable enough to suppose
that all things should be ours, and
when We find only few things com
ing to our share, then we become dis
contented and pcevish, and speak
hustv words.

The late interview between the cor

when he was but eighteen years Of
age. This was in 1914 Being a
great admirer Of Henry Clay, his
pithy and earnest support Of that gen
tleman soon attracted the attention Of
some prominent Wings Of Franklin
county, Pa, and he was induced to
become the editor Of the CHowLerablpu
Repository. Whilst editing this paper
he studied law and entered into part

Among the manuscripts which were
