The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-10-25


your plausible philosophy goes to pieces.
Not so, my friend it has stood the test
of practice since the world began. If it
has failed in any instance, the fault is
not with the philosophy. Any one who
practices it constantly, day in and day
out, In storm and in sunshine, whether
the world smiles or frownS, will find that
it makes an armor impregnable to all 1.-The
sings and arrows of outrageous fortune"
Probably there are many people VINO do
the right thing, but may do it in the
wrong way; who will perform a kind ac-
ton. yet in such manner as to give
pain instead of pleasure; will grant
request or confer favor in manner
so gracious that the recipient almost
wishes that the request had been re-
fused or the favor withheld.
Words of love and tenderness
Words of truth and kindness,
Words of comfort for the sad
Words of gladneSS for the glad,
Words of counsel for the bad
Wisely write them down.
Our admiration is sometimes bespoken
for successful people who are said to have
"leaped over every obstacle" Biogra-
pliers of eminent men are particularly
fond of making their heroes arrive at the
goal of their hopes by this Steeplechase
process. But the truth is that impetu-
Gus spirits who charge at every impede
ment in their path on the Sink-or-SWim
survive -or-perish plan; unless favored
sink than to swim, to perish than to
survive. 1t is advisable to go round OBJ
stacles that you might break your neck
in attempting to take at flying leap.
In most cases policy is as necessary to
success as energy.

very serviceable. but are pretty. Ad-

Look for goodness. look for gladness;

If you bring a smiling visage
To the glass, you meet smile.
