WISE AND OTHERWISE.

Modesty is the conscience OF the body.
Nothing makes men sharper than
want.
Fly the pleasure that bites to,mor-
row.
The man who knows the most IS not
an owning man.
Worldly faces never look so worldly
as at funeral.
Proud hearts and lofty mountains are
always barren.
A man may suffer without SHINING; he
cannot sin without suffering.
Ragged clothing cannot debase man
as much as a frayed reputation.
We shall be free from evil desires
only when We are pure in heart.
He who can suppress moments an
ger may prevent DAY OF sorrow.
He that wrestles with us strengthens
oar nerves and sharpeDs our Skill.
In ourselves, rather than in material
nature, lie the true source and lie OF the
beautiful.
The power to do great things general
ly arises from the willingness to do
small things.
A smile costs the giver nothing, yet it
is beyond all price to the erring and re-
pentant, the sad and cherries, the lost
aud forsaken. 1t disarms malice, sub
dues temper, turns enmity to love, re-
venge 10 kindness and paves the darkest
paths with gems Of sunlight.

The Prayer of Faith.

Independent.
What does the PRAYER OF faith mean?
1t is not the opinionated petition OF a
seli-conceited suppliant, who is sure OF
his own conclusions, and who, when he
pravs. presumes to make merit before
God of his own self sufficient confidence.
1t is not the narrow, selfish cry OF a
blind heart, who knows only that he
wants this one thing and wants it so
much that he cares for nothing else in
all the universe but TO get it. The faith
required in prayer is faith in God, and
faith in God is large principle, which
means much. 1t means faith in Gods
laws, in his system OF nature as well as
of grace, in bis providence as much as
his love and mercy, and in all these to-
gether as the grand foundation OF hope
and promise. When the believer goes
to God, his faith does not fill his heart
with the feeling. II have a case here. l
know have. God must see It as l do;
and, If he does not, il will upset ali my
philosophy of PRAYER and faith" True
PRAYER carries in il reserve OF submls-
sion and Difference and tender, gener-
GUS remembrance Of all other souls. 1t
il the mingling of deep desire with a
vet deeper aad broader faith; and the
faith is the more commanding principle
OF the two-so much more commanding
that It ia not disturbed il the petition is
denied; so much more commanding that
il will bid us pray and bring us peace
bv prayer, though we hardly dare hope
for the thing We ask for.

MOSAICS.
Concentration alone conqucrs.

Concentration alone conqucrs.
The fewer words the better prayer.
Chance generally favors the prudent.
The brightest exercise Of charity is
charity toward the uncharitab!e.
In this world Of change naught which
comes stays, and naught which goes IS
lost.
Circumstances are the rulers of the
weak; they are but the instruments OF
the wise.
Christianity il the companion OF lib
erty in all its coniiicts-tho cradle Of its
infancy and the divine source OF its
claims.
Character is not cut in marble-it is
not something solid and unalterable. 1t
is something living and changing, and
NAV become diseased as our bodies do.
Ii is better to meet danger than 10
wait for it. He that is on Il lee shore,
and forCSecs hurricane, stands ont to
sea and encounters storm to avoid q
Shipwreck.
A person who is too nice an ob'erver
of the business OF a crowd, like one who
is too curious in observing the labor Of
the bees, will often be sturg for his
curiosity.
The beautiful must ever rest in the
arms OF the sublime. The gentle needs
the strong to sustain it, as much as the
rock-flowers need rocks to grow on, or
the ivy the rugged wall which it EN-
braces.
What sculpture is to block OF mar
bic, education is to human soul. The
philosopher, the saint and the hero
the wise, the good and the great man,
very often lie hid and concealed under
plebeian surface, which a proper edu-
cation might have disinterred and
brOuyht to light.

ATrue Cause for Regret.

1t makes the heart OF every phi.an-
thropist sad to see so many wO thieSs
patent medicines pulled and advertised
Tor the cure of chronic diseases. Usual
lv the remedy is some vile CathartlC
compound or alcoholic preparation COM
bined with bucbu, turpenLine or other
severe diuretic that affords the invalid
ONLY temporary relief, but which has no
lastlng effect, and IN truth eventually
brings on a complication Of diseases
arising from state of wornout and eX-
hausted digestive and urinary organs
that nothing but death eau relieve.
Invalids should trust more to
nature for their recovery. A gentle
medicinal tonic that stimulates entee-
bled digestion and strengthens every
part of the system by its soothing and
refreshing effect on both mind ana body,
is natures truest and best assistant.
Such a remedy is Browns Iron Bitters,
q medicine surpa sing the sale oil all
other remedies whenever its merits be-
come known, for It acts in such perfect
harmony with the laws oil life aud health,
that all pulmonary, urinary AID dlges-
tive troubles are prevented and perma'
nentlv cured by its timely Use. 1t con-
ta,ns 10 alcohol, and will not btacSen

WOMAN'S TACT.
No Rad Father-in-Law.

No Bad Father-in-Law.
No doubt it is more difficult for a wo-
man to suppress her indignation, to con-
ceal irritation, to ignore unpleasantness'
to feel or affect Indifference; but you
see, Madame, we are not inquiriag into
causes. but as to the fact. Women are
declared TO have more tact than men; so
thew have IN some social things, but IN
important things think not. 1t Is, for
instance, the lack of tact on the part Of
wogen that sets clique against Clique
in congregations and IN church societies
of all kinds; that causes almost all as
sociations organized by women to break
mn in differences; that keeps so many
people i'm hot water in family hotels and
or wherever lovely wo-
man predominates. 1t is to lack oil
tact that we owe the traditional mother.
in-Iaw. Fathers-in-law have no bad
regulations anywhere, May l not say
this is because they have too much tsct
10 interfere, too much tact to notice
rifles. too much tact to be ;ussy and
jr, i.s,ing in matters that should be
widely let alone? Does not any woman
realize how much tact men are found TO
exhibit in order to successfully keep
their places in life? 1t has been
shrewdly doubted, you know, whether
clubs would be possible with ladies =
not merely because they have not the
club disposition, but because they can
not abide together without getting into
hostile divisions. 1t takes good deal
of tact to meet daily on familiar and
equal terms with numerous persons and
keep all irritating things ont OF s'gnt
The club is possible in the highest
civilization only because nothing but
the selt-repression that comes OF the
highest social training permits men OF
diverse interests and tastes 10 come to-
gether harmoniousl". The club sttords
an excellent test OF tact, and if men are
better adapted than women for club life
If they can live together in this way
without collisions-they have establish
ed the possession OF tact more etfectually
than even the requirements OF the
