SUNDAY THOUGHTS.
A judicious silence is better than truth

A judicious silence is better than truth
spoken without charity.
For most men, an ignorant enjoyment
is better than an informed one.
II good face is letter OF recon-
mendatiOn, a good heart is letter OF
credit.
A fool always wants to shorten space
and time; wise man wants to lengthen
both.
We have little pity for others until
we are in situation to claim it for our
selves.
Poverty is the only burden which
grows heavier by being shared with those
we love.
Many people are only in this world
gathering together handful Of thorns
to sit upon.
The confession of error is the hardest
part of repentance, whether in man or
in q nation.
If the best mans faults were written
on his forehead, he would wear his hat
over his eyes.
True prudence is to see from the COM
mencement of an affair what is to be the
end of it.
Actions, looks, words, steps, form tho
letters by which we may spell charac-
ters.
Genius of the highest kind implies an
unusual intensity of the modifying
power.
five are faithful to the duties of the
present, God will provide for the future
The life which has borne no love is a
garden which has brought forth no
flowers.
The very best and kindest way in
which to look at the faults of your friend
is to shut your eyes.
Death to the christian is the funeral of
all his sorrows and evils, and the resur.
rection of all his joys.
When we are ready to do thing let
ns do it. Let us not wait for time or tide!
They never wait for US.
You may gain knowledge by reading
the chaf by thinking.
There is no condition so low but may
have hopes, nor any SO high that it is out
OF the reach of fears.
There are blessings and privileges in
every life; let us be thankful for all those
which fall to our lot.

The jamestown Alert speaking of flax

Porter Bros. have done on their farm
south of jamestown. They put two
teams at breaking four weeks ago. and
have 80 acres of flax up and growing
finely. This piece will probably yield
18 bushels to the acre, or total of l,44(
bushels. This is worth 80 cents pei

breaking, getting the ground ready fol
next spring.
