WORDS OF WISDOM.

sclr.denial is that which cXalts the
bccgar above the dignity Of king.
LIE. without the absolute use OF
the actual sweet therein, is death, not

Great causes are often made to ap-
pear as fanaticism through too much

He who always complains OF the

and deserves less.
In this world it is necessary to look
at things in their best light. Li1e IS
so beautiful and so short.
Slow natures are often, 1t critical
times. most decisive. Right ana
wrong stand out to them in dist!nc-
tive colors. There is no such thing as
self-deception.
1t is easier TO find an old friend than
an old mother. Friendship begins
with liking or gratitade-roots that
can be pulled up. Mothers love be-
gins deeper down.
If Il proneness to cgotism has been
brought about by too narrow n life,
the evident remedy is to widen 1t. To
come into frequent contact with many

The influence of good roads upon
