WORDS OF THE WISE.

God oft has great share in a little house.
He who stays in the valley will never get
over the hill
The shortest way TO do many things is to
do only one thing at once.-Cecil.
Every one is weary; the poet in seeking, the
rich in keeping, the good in learning.
OF making many books there is no end; and
much study is a WEAKNESS of the flesh.
The slothful man saith: "There is a lion
without; | shall be slain in the street. ~
In months of sun so live that months of
rain shall still be happy. G. Whittier.
Though the Lord be high, yet hath he re-
spect unto the lowly; but the proud he
knoweth afar off.
Many people are sincere without being sim
pie They do not wish to be taken for other
than what they ars; but they are always
fearing lest they should be taken for what
they are not.-Penelon.

There were the old veterans, grown
grey in the public service, surrounded
by the younger limbs of the law-the
flower ana the hope of the common
wealth. The arrangements for the
banquet were elegant and appropriate.
The menu card was particularly happy.

the tables, they were confronted by a
