the character. rs cs,s.
THE hardest trial OF the heart Is
whether IL can bear.a rivals failure
without triumph. ,4.sr
THERE is a paradox In pride; IL
makes some men ridiculous, but pre-
vents others from becoming so.
WHEN moral courage feels that 1t
is In the right there is no personal
daring OF which 1t is incapable.
HONOR hath three things In 1t:
The vantage to do good; the APP
proach to kings and principal persons,
and the raising OF mans own fort
unes. ~
| "A GENTLEMAN is one who under
stands and shows every mark OF def
erence to the claims OF self-love In
Others, and exacts 1t in return from
them.
THERE are many women who have
never intrigued, and many men VINO
have never gained; but those VINO
have done either but once are very
extraordinary animals.
MONUMENTS may be builded to ex-
press the affection or pride OF friends,
or to display their wealth, but they
are only valuable for the characters
which they perpetuate.
In a mans hands, silence Is the
most terrible Of all protests TO th'
woman who loves him. Violence sh'
can endure. Words she Is always
ready to meet with words on her side
But silence conquers her.
If you want knowledge, you mus
toll for it; and IL pleasure, you mus
toll for it. Toll is the law. Pleas
ure comes through toll, and not o.
self-indulgence and Incidence. Wnel
one gets to love work his life Is
! happy one.
THERE is no labor so productive a
that which we give to an object 10
: its own sake. The more we forge
! ourselves in our doings the create
; the returns they will yield. Th
? more we are willing to lose our III
; In our pursuits the more surely "
2 shall find 1t In the fruit Of our worl
4 If a man finds that he is ever.
q where esteemed, considered honor'
lble and trustworthy, he will be stln
r. lulated to become still more so. III
q finds every one suspecting him,
Il Twill much more easily succumD
n temptation. And so with all otn
N merits and dement's, showing no
! powerful factor in human life Is u
n emphasis we use.
Iy WE touch one another In all life
ID associations; we impress more or lie
Of all with whom we come in contac
a In the home, In society, in bushes
ID we leave our mark. 1t becomes
w all then to inquire what kind OF
ip impression we are making upon chill
is hood and manhood in our sever
be spheres of influence. Is 1T for go
- or for i'll? II for good, then our Il
I is worth living; If for evil, then 1t
a failure.
NEVER be influenced by extern
n appearances in forming your JUG
vi ment of person. This Is an imp
M tant rule, for many noble spirit
IA covered by habiliments of power
u while not infrequently snowy
~ terror conceals a villain OF the bas
b kind. Dean Swift said that natl
M had given every man capacity
~ being agreeable, though not SHIN
in company; and there are h
- dred men sufficiently qualified
M both who by a very few faults q
sD they can correct in half an hour
not so much as tolerable.
in WE must never forget that, WI
tie ever be the circumference VIII
mr. claims our allegiance, we are still
,ow center, and must remain selfspol
the and resolute. He who despises h
Iau self, who neglects himself, who
idly conforms himself In all thing
other people and has no respect
his own individuality, can never
erb force in the world. This 1ndee'
rap only another form Of seltishne
am, loving ease and hating toll, lily
af- without energy or purpose, and
t be ing like a dead weight on who'
% is will bear it. 1t is perhaps DIM
ing at once to preserve our centrality
to identify ourselves with each
var, conference; but WAT is there OF
ons, highest and the best that does
tice present difficulty? Emerson says,
Ill is easy In the world to live after
urn worlds opinion; it Is easy in soil
e of to live after our own; but the &
Iriv- man is he who in the midst OF
us crowd keeps with perfect sweet
the independence of solitude. F"
