Helpful Thoughts.

A thing of beauty is JOY forever.
Night brings out stars as sorrow
shows us truths.
A friend should bear his friends
infirmities.
However idle man may be, he
always has enough to think about,
There IS no grace in benefit that
sticks to the fingers.
To days work we'll done will
make tO-morrow's easier.
An error is the more dangerous in
proportion to the degree Of truth
which it contains.
1t is enough to do a good deal
without telling of it.
How many things we think we can
do till we try.
Sometimes we can excuse thing
in ourselves till we see it done by
others.
FalsehOods may be stated un der
impression that they are truths; but
living is characterized by the inten-
ton to deceive.
Between levity and cheerfulness
there is wide distinction; and the
mind which is most open to levity
is frequently stranger to cheerful
ness.
To reprove small faults with I'M
due vehemence is as absurd as if a
man should take a great hammer
because he saw fly on his friend
forehead.
Never hold any one by the button
or the hand in order to be heard out
for, if people are unwilling to hear
you, it is better to hold your tongue
than them.
Life is too short to nurse one s
misery. Hurry across the lowlands,
that yOu may spend more time on
the mountain tops.
