GIyE A LITTLE There IL nothing
harder for man with strong will and
stronger won't" in his composition,
than to make up his mind not always TO
have his own way-,to submit to a thou
sand little wrongs and suppositions rather
than quarrel with bis neighbours A man
who had been clergyman, physician
and lawyer, was asked which profession
was the most profitable. lie replied in
substance that where man would be will
ing to pay twenty-five cents TO secure his
salvation, and fifty cents to he made we'll
when he is sick, he would willingly give
five dollars to hayo his own way
Now this willfulness is, of all kinds of
business, the most Improbable. One
well says TINT man needs a long purse
who determines, come what will, to have
his own way. We must learn to turn
sharp corners quietly, or we shall be con
stantly hurting ourselves. Two men
with mills on the Same stream, quarrcled
over the water power There was pro-
badly not five dollars difference between
them at the start, but neither would yield
an inch. The case was thrown into the
hands Of smart lawyers. who aggravated
the difficulty for their own ends, and
worried the case long year after, till
one lawyer took the upper mill for his
dues, and the other The lower. They
probably were contcntcd not TO quarrel
over the triacs that proved 50 disastrous
to their clients.
Before you 60 into a lawsuit, carefully
calculate your cost if you should
gain it, and SEQ if you had not better put
your money into sheep, new carriage
for your family, d COW for your son or
daughter, or II thousand other things
that might give you much more profit
and happincss. The malicious delight
You feel in gloating over neighbours
discomfitures is not happiness, but only
its miserable counterfeit. II is dispo-
sition near akin to that which lost spirits
feel. Root this out Of your heart, if you
would not be forever miserable.

nothing to do with the Cardiff humbug fur
