SAY what you please, argue what

this haste to be rich in material things,
this attempt to enjoy without produc-

Some Evening Reveries.

Dld you ever realize that nothing
on earth can smile but a human
being. Gems may flash reflected
light, but what is a diamond flash?
A face that cannot smile is like a
bud that cannot blossom, and dies
upon the. stalk. Laughter is day
and sobriety is night, and a smile
is the twilight that hovers gently
between both, and more bewitching
than either.
One drop of ink will blacken a
whole glassful Of pure water. So
will one evil communication make
the whole world foul. Beware of
those evil words. You might drop
many, many drops of pure water
into the tumbler, but it would have
no perceptible influence. So it will
take thousands of good precepts
and good instructions to root out
this one evil word.
-
Don't harp on past troubles.
When we see a pale nervous wo-
man in the midst of her friends
preferring to entertain them with a
list of the racking pains she has
suffered to a saunter in Gods free
air and sunshine, we cannot wonder
that the rose returns not to the
blanched cheek. Why is it that to
some these memories are very meat
and drink? They consume them,
the bitter agony is acted over and
over again, the tears thrice shed,
the place cherished where such
dreadful thing occurred, the scar
fondly petted that tells of the
almost fatal knife.
-
Profanity never did any man the
least good. No man is the richer,
the happier or the wiser for it. It
commends no one to any society.
It IS disgusting TO the renned; s,t,~-
ominable to the good; insulting to
those with whom we associate: de-
grading to the mind; Improbable,
needless and injurious in society.
Young man, don't be profane.
Il
Lost wealth may be restored by
industry; the wreck of health re-
gained by temperance; forgotten
knowledge restored by study; alien
ated friendship smoothed into for
getfulness; even forfeited reputa-
ton recovered by penitence; but
whoever again looked upon his
vanished hours, recalled his slight
ed years, stamped them with wis
dom, or effaced from heavens rec
ord the fearful blot of wasted time?
