Selected Aphorisms.
For the Sunday Globe. |


Treasure the affections of those who
love you. After all, there is nothing else
in this world so valuable. 1t is the only
thing which money cannot buy.
Work for soma good, be it ever SO slow
~; labor, all labor is noble and holy.
Keep busy; idleness is the strength of
bad habits.
Death is the end of all things; a good
life and quiet conscience are the safest
weapons with which to meet this hungry
monster.
Through much tribulation ye must en-
ter into the kingdom of God.
Buy the truth and sell it not.
Life's field will yield, as we make it, q
harvest of thorns or flowers.
The angel and man are the most per-
feet creatures whom God has Gre
ated, because they alone are gifted with
intelligence, and capable of knowing and
loving their Creator, and also because they
are destined to be eternally happy in pos
sessing Him.
An humble man is like good tree; the
more full of fruit the branches are, the
lower they bend themselves.
A bright and beautiful bird is hope-it
will come to Us amid tae darkness, and
sing the sweetest songs when our spirits
are saddest, and when the soul is weary.
and longs to pass away, it MARBLES its sun
niest notes and tightens again the slender
fbres of our hearts that grief has been
tearing away.
This wogld is what we make it, so let us
be good. Whatever we do, let US do it for
the best. When we stand before God to
be judged, no one then can assist Us, if we
have not done the right. God ls 3 mercifuI
but just Judge; it IS only great souls that
know how much glory there is in being
good.
There are people whose very presence
seems to lift you into better, higher,
purer atmosphere. Choose such associ-
ates. He that walketh with wise men shall
be wise; but companion of evil shall be
destroyed.
Never do an act in life on which you
dare not first ask Gods blessing. We
make little actions great by performing
them with great desire of pleasing God.
''The patient man shall talk of vic
tories and to him that persevereth / will
give the crown"
The man who forgives his enemy is like
God.
The Lord is nigh unto those of contrite
heart.
Few love to hear the sins they love to act.
Tell the truth and shame the devil.
Look carefully into thine own faults and
thou will find little inclination to weigh
the actions of others.
The whole of human life consists in lit
tie actions which accomplish great duties
God weighs the heart and not the work,
that he looks not at what we do, but why
we do it.
Cultivate the soul; so pluck up the evil
weeds to prepare it for the good seed of
the good God. Do nothing bat what you
can offer to God. Love God, whose child
you are. Be faithful, more earnest, less
worldly, love God more and serve him
| better God would have you different.
Live for him. Go out of yourself.
Live more for others, do right because
| it is right, love the truth for the truths
sake, be purer. mere noble every way, and
all things shall be added unto you. Every
one ought to read in triple book-in the
| book of creatures, that he may find God
in the book of conscience, that he may
know himself; in the book of scripture,
that he may love his neighbor.
We should know and feel that our future
is to be beyond the stars in heaven, and
that if We lead virtuous lives here, we will
shine ''as stars for all eternity
Let Us remember that sublime words
\ make not man holy and just, but VIZ
tuous life maketh him dear to God.
