SENTENCE SERMONS.


elncerity is never self-conscious.
Grumbling is the CHILD of greed.
Sin is never healed by humoring 1t.
1t takes all of life to know all of
love.
Faith is the greatest force in the
world.
You cannot feed the soul on frozen
truths.
Style is no substitute for sterling
strength.
Character may be sold. but It can.
not be bought.
The life that does no good is guilty
OF much harm.
Some people fear to try lest they
should succeed.
Character is what we are when we
haven't time to calculate.
No man moves this world until he Is
profoundly moved himself.
People who borrow trouble are al
ways ready to lend advice.
The hope of this world is in the
hard things we have to do.
AS soon as man is good enough
he is no longer any good.
The devil needs to do nothing for
the man who has nothing to do.
1t takes more than bellows in the
pulpit to start fire in the church.
They who laugh at another's dis
tress have no ability to share an
others Joy.
The soundness of a mans faith does
not depend on the amount OF noise he
makes.
If you do not give your riches
wings for good works they will take
to themselves wings for good and all.
Chicago Tribune.

mony is the most hazardous.
When man is his own worst enemy
he is apt to love his enemies.
Many man is so cool in the hour

When some people do good deeds
there are extenuating circumstances.

A compliment makes a woman feel
good, even when she knows 1t is only

Nothing pleases the average woman
so much as her ability to reverse
mans opinion.
Men never gossip. They simply men,

Some women would rather marry

SAYS THE OWL.

Intense love intoxicates like the
headiest wine.
We are never blase so long as we
retain a single ideal.
Women seldom live in the future;
they are happy in the reign of to-day.
A woman's friendship is priceless.
but In retaining 1t you may lose her
love.
We may know how to cauterize a
wound but often find difficulty in
treating the sting of a phrase.
Most people who give good refer
ences for anybody do 1t because they
are so awful glad to be rid of them.
The tragedies of the world are
worked out in the silence of a wom-
ans heart; tragedies that only women
may understand.
Moods are luxury: they should go
with a life wholly free from ordinary
cares. SO that one may enjoy an entire
abandonment to their sway.
