WISE WORDS.

Prosperity is blessing to the good,
but curse to the evil.
He who seems not to himself more
than he IS, is more than he seems.
When anger rushes unrestrained tc
action, like hot steed, it stumbles in
its way.
Bodily labor alleviates The pain of the
mind whence arises the happiness oil
the poor
The vanity of human life is like 8
river constantly passing away, and yet
constantly coming on.
1t is possible that man can be 81
hanged by love that one could not rec.
ognize him to he TIE same person.
When you talk to women you must
choose between lying and displeasing
them. There is no middle course unless
you say nothing.
To pronounce e man happy merely
because he is rich, is just as absurd te
cali a man healthy merely because he
has enough to eat.
And when We are in prosperity we are
ready to think our mountaln will never
be brought low, so when we are il
adversely we are ready to think that oul
valley will never be filed up.
Fight hard against a hasty temper
Anger will come, but resist it stoutlv. 4
spark may set a house on fire. A fit O
passion may give you cause to mourn al
your life. Never revenge an injury.
Happiness is evident to us in this life
by deliverance from evil. "Happy j:
he who sees the day!" said q biint
man; but man who sees clearly doe:
not say so. Happy is he who il
healthy!" said an invalid. When he i.
well he does not feel the happiness O
health.
