Be Careful in Choosing Your Associates.

One of the most endearing connec-
tions with thisllfe is to knowsthat we
have friends whom we have, tried and
can trust. Slch friends are very scarce,
and, perhaps, rarer still are, those peo-
pie who know or are capable OF iudg-
ing when they have such friends. Our
characters are formed for good or bad
from the company we keep. Conf
sdence IN our power to refrain from the
vices OF others too often inveig1es us
into the Tisksof mingling with associates
whom we know to be our interiors both
mentally and morally The daily influ-
ence OF such company will blind us to
what we know to be wrong, and we are
unconsciously led into acting in such q
manner as weswould have formerly con-
demned. .,,.,,y.s, .9assssf -'se
In forming friendships avoid these
lower types, and let your mode of liv-
ing be directed by comparing your
daily actions with the standard Of what
you conscientidlsly gconsider morally
right. Beware of the two-faced man.
A slur coming from one that is sup
posed to be your friend carries with it
more destruction than many things
equally suntruthful from every known
enemy You have. You had better make
such men your outright enemies rather
than have them continue as your appar-
ent friends. Simply ignore them and
waive all combativeness with them;
that is. SO far as your intuitiveIy re-
yengeful nature viii allow. ~ + =.
