How O., Serve siapderers.

The best way to destroy the "yarns' spun hy
industrious gOssip-niOngors is to keep straight
on in the even tenor of your way and let their
backbitincs die natural death from neglect.
IL you pay attention TO the unkind remarks Of
false friends, or If you lie awake nights brood
ing over sanders, that run through your brain
like iurkcd lightDings, you arc only pleasing
those malicious persons the more, and assisting
them in their object; for, after all, their pur-
pose generally is more to annoy you-in re-
vcnge for some petty spite or jealousy or envy
than to do you serious injury. Besides,
WHAT IS THE USE
ofygetting into worry about II? Ifa bee
should sting you would you rush to the hive
and stir it up TO destroy the one who attacked
your Would not a thousand venomed tongues
then come swarning upon you who would other
wise. have never molested you? Depend upon
II, that discretion is the better part Of valor'
in these cases and there Is also u passage Of
Scripture which might be here quoted to good
advantage, but which you will doubtless recall
to mind without further mention.
The meddlcsomc busy body Is generally
| person with little or no character of his own,
| and with nothing In life to do and is there
fore Of very small consequence. The worthy
| workers In this busy, bustling world find no
time for nonsense, and their industry elevates
them far above such littlcncss. II what
the gosiips sly of you perchance be true,
sec to II that you set yourself right
at once, and be grateful for the correction,
however unkindly given, and thus in due
course of time you may retrieve yourself and
live 1t down; :" but If II be false, land ninety
nine times in q hundred it isl let II go for
what 1t is WORTH and hold yourself so high
that all the poisoned shafts Of malice will fall
far below the mark to wound. If we pause to
bicker with back k-biters, and to reIute all the
ISLANDERS we encounter by the waysidc, we
shall soon have both hands and heart full, and
| inevitably come out losers in the end. To be
| sure, unjust criticisms and accusations Of
which we are innocent are exceedingly annoy
ing but they are never dangerous unless by
scolding AID combating We give them charao,
ter aud standing.
| CHARACTERS
are not sudden acquisitions, nor do they bios
| som like the ccrcuS, in u night, for either good
or i'll; but rather, like religion, they arc of
slow aud gradual growth, proceeding from the
heart outward, and pernlrating ones whole
existence. They are formed and sustained by
our own purposes and actions from year to
| year, not by the hasty and superficial COM
mcnts Of others. Calumniators are oftencr ac-
tuatcd by envy than any other motive. Re-
member that slmder, like death "lovcs a
shining mark" and that, ii innocent, you
have no need to fret, but marching straight
ahead may safely trust your cause to the slow
but sure justice of public opinion and to time,
who makes all things even"
