Self UNDERSTANDING.

One of the hardest things to do, one
of the greatest tasks and problems OF
life, is to understand our own selves.
We complain oftentlmes of being mis-
understood by the world. Are we sure
that we have solved the problem our
selves? Are we sure that the world is
not right in its opinion Of usI It is not
possible that we have yet to learn the
very truth that so Ofends Until we
are sure that we have read the riddle Of
our own complex and deceptive person
atty, let US not complain too bitterly Of
the worlds judgment of US.
Take the verdict of others humbly.
Bear it patiently. unless you are deeply
sure in your own soul, from a perfect
understanding of yourself, that 1t can
not be right Think how patiently our
Lord Jesus Christ bore those long years
Of His earthly life, in which He was
persistently misunderstood by every
one else except His mother and the be-
loved disciples. Even though He KNEW
HIMSELF He was silent, and He loved
those who misunderstood Him even
while they could not understand.
Shall we, who are not sure even yet
that we know ourselves. be very pa
tient with those who see us dimly and
perhaps incorrectly? Shall we not walk
with them in love, awaiting the time
when the Divine verdict shall reveal
what we are in very truth Zion g

extended TO the County Commissioners
of the various counties to occupy stands
with county exhibits.

VIM to DO WLth a bad Temper.

Starve il. Give il nothing 10 feed on.
When something tempts you to grow
angry. do not yield to the temptation.
IL may for minute or two be difficult
70 control yourself. hut try IT, Force
yourself to do nothing, to say nothing,
and the rising temper will be obliged TO
go down, because IT, has nothing TO hold
it up. The person who can and does
control his tonge, hand and heart, in
in the face of great provocation, is a
hero. The world may not hold him or
her as such, but God does. The Bible
says that he that ruleth his spirit is bet
ter than he that taketh a city.
What sgained by yielding TO temper?
For moment there Is a feeling of re-
lief, but soon comes a sense Of sorrow
and shame with wish that the temper
had been controlled. Friends are sepa-
rated by bad temper, trouble is caused
by it. and the pain is given TO others as
well as self. That pain, too, often lasts
for, days, even years sometimes for
life An outburst Of temper is like the
bursting Of a steam boiler IL Is impOs-
sible TO tell beforehand what will be the
result. The evil done may never be
remedied. Starve your temper. II is
not worth keeping alive. Let il die. --
