A kind of discreet deafness saves
one from many insults and much blame;
therefore the art of not hearing should
be learned by all. 1t is quite as inn

money and time are expended. There
are so many things which it is painful
to hear, many which we ought not to
hear, very many which, if heard, would
disturb the temper, corrupt simplicity
and modesty, detract from content

should be educated to take in or shut
out sounds, according to his pleasure

Nothing can be greater mistake
than to spend life in making Christian

Christianity is good for any thing, it is
meant to be practiced.
Never open your purse for charity
if you can not open your heart, too.
Rather give no dole than give it with a
grudge. The Lord loveth cheerful

"A world without beauty would be

Our hardest battles are with our
selves; and our worst enemies are in
our own hearts. Some, however, have
no warfare of this sort, but give way
to every inclination, and speak and act
just alike. Can this be rightP Surely
not, if we go by the Bible.
The wisest Christian that ever
lived in this world becomes vastly
wiser the moment he enters the Heav-
emily world, and sees things 'face tc

hood. and the next, in comparison with
it, is our manhood. -Independent.
For each day God has appointed
just enough of trials and burdens fol

anxiety about the future, then there il
too much, and the temper and faitl

not being found, it was laid aside and
afterwards lost. When the money al

the order having been forgotten, nc
Mr.. Coach, while in New Orleans, took
the opportunity to inquire after the
missing money, and the matter was
promptly explained by the company
and the money offered him. This Mr.
