Don't Find Fault.

In the first place, does it pay to be contin-
ually finding fault? 1t is very easy matter
to pick flaws in any piece of work, for no
ones work is perfect. Fault-finding often
becomes chronic and grows on man just as
an evil habit does, increasing day by day.
There is nothing so disagieeable as to visit a
home where ult.finding is continually going
on where, at the breakfast, dinner and tea
table, no pleasant word is spoken, but instead
each one is finding fanlt with the other for
some tritling error. | do not mean that error
should not be rebuked, but when the evening
twilight is gathering, when the work of the
day is over, then kindly call the little ones
around you and gently and so!emply tell
them of their wrongs, and see if you are not
much better repaid than if the little heads had
dropped all day at the angry glances and
frowns on your face. There are many
things every day that annoy us, but don't
make life sadder by finding fault. The world
might seem much pleasanter at all times il
We would forget to fret, frown and find fault

WHAT usE,

What is the use of this impetuous hasie?
The end is certain. Let us take our time
Aud hoard the vital forces that we waste
Before our day has reached its golden prime
what is the use of rushing with spent breath
After old age, its burrows, its white hair2 :
Why need we hurry 80 to welcome Death,
Or go half way TO hands stretched out &c
Care? .N
There is no use. Dear heart, IL we but wait
All things will find us. Let us pause, l say,
We cannot go beyond the silent gate
That lies a short days journey down the way
So let us take our time in youths fair bowers;
The summer season is so brief at best,
Let us look on the stars and pluck the flowers.
And when our feet grow weary let us rest.
