BE True TO Yourself"

Nothing hnrtsa man more than to

Always Right.

Most people ndhber among theii
Acqnaintances an infaliiblr man
one who never errs in bis opinions
lie may not announce the fact il,
general terms, lest it should seem
to SAVIOR somewhat OF pride. or sloul,
shock the proud constituencies OF
others, being taken as an invasion
Of their reserved rights. But the
truth comes out ia the individual
instances 10 which his intelligence
aud Judgment are put TO the test.
The particular case has not VET
been found in which he was read,
to acknowledge that he had erred.
1t is quite astonishing, considering
che liability of others to misjudg,.,
that he so exactly hits the mark
every time! His 81 told sou so ~ il
o poverb, and his "What | would
do' IN oft.repcated tale.
Unfortunately, such people are not
rs popular rs one might suppose
they would be. But then public
blessings are not often recognized
a. such. The difficulty seems to
grow out OF the fact that others are
no strangely unwilling to be guided
by their opinions; as if the very
object that Providence had in view.
IN bestowiDg an iutallible man on
any community, were not that he
might tell them what to believe and
TO do. And il they will not accept
his conclusions, what remains but
that he hold them in proper con.
tempt as dolts and tools, and suitably
express that opinion at all times
and seasons' The whole world may
DE wrong; but he is always right.
DO you recognize the picture.
