THE social affections are the refiners
and softeners of life, the main sources
of happiness, the chief means by which
the beauty, the grace and the sweetness
of life are developed and nourished.

THE manly way is to treat lightly the
judgments passed on us by others, but tc
be honorably sensitive about the judg
ments we are compelled to pass on our
selves

WHEN certain persons abuse us. lei
us ask ourselves what descriptions OF
characters it is that they admire; We
shall often find this an exceedingly con-
solatory question.

A SHIP on the broad. boisterous and
open ocean needeth no pilot. But it
dare not venture alone on the placid
bosom of little river, lest it be wrecked
by some hidden rock. Thus it is with
life. 'Tis not in our open, exposed deeds
that we so much need the still voice of
the silent monitor as in the small, secret,
every day acts of our life.

A Million Friends.

A friend in need is a friend indeed
and not less than one million people have
found just such friend in DR.. Kings

AT all times kindness is better than
ill-nature, and courtesy is nobler thing
than disrespect. Nothing can be much
more foolish than to go out of our way
to make enemies for the mere sake of
making them, when very little patience,
forbearance and self restraint would
have given us instead a helper, a friend,
a panegyrist and backer.

WHERE every moment is absorbed in
existing business or feverish pleasures.
where no time is afforded for repose of
mind and scarcely enough for repose of
body, it is no wonder that letters of
friendship and good fellowship should
be first postponed and finally discontin
ued. The result of this neglect is always
disastrous.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1893-08-17

MEN do not make occasions. but oc
casions make men. Occasions give men
an opportunity to show themselves at
their fullest and best; but, unless the oc.
casion is reality by itself, it cannot be
made an opportunity for the wisest and
ablest men to exhibit his exceptional
powers. And the occasions that do most
for men of ability are occasions of spe
cial need, or of special trial, or of spe
cial bewilderment and perplexity.

PASSIONS are strong emotions of the
mind occasioned by the view Of ap-
preaching good or evil. These emotions
are planted in man by Providence in or
der to give him activity and fit him for
society. The directing of our passions
to improper objects or suffering them to
hurry us away with them is the great
danger in human life.

$50 Pounds of Trout.

Fishermen who are inclined to brag
should remember that B. G. Courser and
A. S. Mathews went to DiXville Notch in
July, 1872, and in II hours they caught
$50 pounds of trout. They brought them
into Lyndon village strung on pole which
they carried on their shoulders. 1t was
the handsomest string of trout ever seen in
the village up to that date, and it has never
been equaled. In size they varied from a
half pound to three pounds each.
