The Critical.

None but the initiated know the ac-
curacy required in a printing office.
The average reader who detects mis-
spelled word or a letter upside down
looks upon it as glaring defect. He
does not notice the thousands of let
tiers that are in place or the multitude
of words that are spelled correctly,
but his eagle eye is glued on tn at one
that is out of place. So 1T is with
our deeds. Man does a thousand good
deeds, and no attention is paid to
them, but let him make one mistake
and it is flashed all over the world
A lifetime may be spent in making
a reputation that may be wrecked In
one moment. The world is a harsh
critic, exacting to fault
Are you lacking in strength and
