Coming out of the land office Monday,

Pearls.

Care for what you say, or what you
say will make you care.
Better soft heart and an iron hand
than an iron heart and soft hand.
Suspicious among thoughts are like
bats among birds-they ever fly by twi-
light.
knowledge is proud that he knows SO
much; wisdom is humble that ne knows
no more.

"Why is it" asked lady, "that
people lose their interest in church
going now-a-days2" "Because they
have lost their principle" was the witty
reply.
No man or woman of the humblest
sort can really be gentle, pure and good,
without the world being better for 1t,
without somebody being helped and
comforted by the very existence OF that
goodness.
Truth never uses perfume, while false
hood often smells sweeter than rose.
Truth is naked, but falsehood wears
mask. Truth is a stranger, but false
hood is we'll known. Truth travels fast,
vet it can never overtake falsehood.
Truth is found at the bottom OF many
other places. A little truth is like yeast,
it will cause a batch of lies to rise.
Truth is the diamond point to falsehood's
pen. Truth has ears with which to hear
about falsehood's vice, while falsehood
has no eyes with which to see truths
virtues.
There is one social dishonor about
which no one thinks it worth while to
say much in reprobation, but which does
more harm than any other known to US
we mean the dishonor of repeating
conversations, opinions, circumstances,
not made under promise OF secrecy Dut
which high sense of honor would treat
as confidential, if haply high sense OF
honor was the rule. 1t is odd that one
of the best things boy learns at school
is to eschew tale-bearing and keep faith
with his companions, while one OF the
most common practices of society is
quite the reverse, namely, to betray the
trust contained in talk, and repeat to
all what has been told in implied conn
dence to one. The habit of repeating
what we hear is as fatal to the best IN
tercourse of minds as to the inner teef
ings of integrity.
