1t is an old rule, and as authoritative
as it lis old, that " He that hath friends
must show himself friendly" II our
friends seem inactive in the interchange
of little attentions, uncommunicative end
Indifferent, pass it by. If we have been
misunderstood, or have wounded the
feelings OF another, we should make ali
necessary explanations and offer such
apology as the occasion may demand.
Nothing is more indicative of noble and
generous nature. A wise person will
make haste to forgive, because he knows
the true value Of time, and will not suf-
fer it to pass in unnecessary pain.
Common business life generally tests a
mans integrity. By a man of integrity
is popularity understood square man."
"a man you can count on every time" a
gentleman true as steel, "a fellow YOU
can vouch for;" and nothing more
quickly Greats for an individual fair
and advantageous reputation than such
life and speech as impress a community
with conviction Of his moral soundness.
The best thing every business man can
do for himself is to so arrange and order
his affairs that his conscience will never
trouble him. Well would it be for our
land and nation if every man would OBJ
serve this principle in dealing with his
fellow man.
Not being correspondent of the News,
allow me, Mr.. Editor, to insert few
lines in the Irvington column. Thanks
giving Day is memorable and very dear
one to the hearts of all Americans. 1t is
a very beautiful and appropriate idea to
set aside one day annually on which t.
lift up our hearts in prayer, and return
thanks to our Creator for His many
benefcent gifts bestowed upon our coun-
try, and that priceless one of Liberty.
1t was my pleasure, by invitation, to
spend that day with my friends Mr.. and
Mrs. Piggott. When the hostess an
nounced dinner, the host very courte-
ously presented his arm to escort me to
the table Il being the elderly lady Of
the party, and how could l reject such
gallantry? All, no, l very gratefully &C.
cepted the compliment, and at table was
assigned place of honor on one side OF
the host, and his mother, Mrs. Jolly, on
the other. AS you entered the dining
room you almost felt you were under a
| tropical sun, filed with 80 many
beautiful plants, and most conspicuous
of all was the jardineire which occupied
the center OF the table, filed with the
English maiden-hair fern brought from
England wrapped in the embrace OF our
national colors-very suggestive of an
Anglo-American alliance. Just before
dinner, we partook of the Puritan
Thanksgiving dinner of parcbed corn,
then came the sumptuous, bounteous
dinner of our dav and time. After din
ing we repaired to the parlor to enjoy
music. We had that soul-stirring song,
America" and the beautiful "God be
With You Till we Meet Again" The
suns declining rays admonished us our
pleasures must end, and with reluctance
we took our departure arriving at our
home by moonlight. This pleasant and
cheerfully spent day will be treasured
among other "reminiscences to brighten
and cheer in travelling down the hill OF
life. Nothing 30 sweet, lovely and
soothing as friends. Without them life
would be dreary, barren waste.
