One liar is more dangerous than a
dozen thieves, and he who upholds him
in his falsehoods is equally as bad as
the slanderer himself. Our village was
afflicted with the former for some
time, and the latter class are few. and
the evil they would cause does not ex-
tend outside their own worthless class.

Anybody can soil the reputation of
an individual, however pure and chaste,
by uttering suspicion that his or her
enemies will believe and his friends
never hear of. But no person only an
unprincipled and degraded falsifier
will stoop to such despicable act. A
puff of the idle wind can shake mil
lion seeds from the thistle and do a
world of mischief which the husband
man must labor long to undo. Such are
the seeds of the slanderer, so easily
sown, so difficult to gather up, and so
pernicious in their fruits.
Don't be loafer! II you have no
business of your own, don't loaf around
the place of another. Nothing gives a
business man poorer opinion of a
place than to see half dozen loafers
sitting or lounging around every time
he goes in. The owner or proprietor
may be too polite or forbearing to order
you away. but inwardly he will wish
you at the bottom of the sea. If he
hires hands he expects them to work in
business hours, and the man who hangs
around place of business hour after
hour talking to the workmen Is never q
welcome visitor to the proprietor. In
this busy world there is work enough
for all, and the man or boy who is con
tent to lie around and sponge off Others
will never amount to anything and had
better 60 off and die.
