After asking the readers To pardon our

would lay upon the lap of the new year, our
offering. in the form of the following original
and unsophisticated lines
II you cannot speak well of your neighbors
SPEAK not of your neighbOrS at all,
On! grumble not when they are rising
And do not exult when they fall
Jealousy is only the shadow
or others success you well know
And enUy is a hurtful companion
NO matter what road you may 90
When your neighbors are climbing the ladder
On! give them lift if you can;
GU Will know from the feel of your conscience
mat you are happier man.
kneel closely beside them in sorrow,
Your prayers will your neighbors uphold:
SGreJcn forth both your hands to the needy
ana the Lor1 will I'LL them with gold
