The man who has not Justice IN his
moral composition can never be accu-
rstely elassed as an optimist. No matter
how apparently sunshining his nature. Il
he be lacking In respect for vhe great
principle Of equity, he Is 10 more than
hsppy-go-lucky rascal The true opti-
mist sees good in everything because
there is good IN himself. Whoever heard
Of an unjust optimlst? do unto others
as ye would have them DO unto you is
not only q leading text Of al the eminent
religions Of the world. but also suggested
the laws OF mankind. Justice. Ike viz
tue. is Its Own reward. For nObly using
il in behalf Of thousands Of miserable
blacks no man CT modern times was
showered with such bitter OpprObrium as
Abraham Lincoln Yet in his unmeritsd
suffering he vas sustained By the thought
that he could stand without shame before
Heaven, before upright people, and be-
fore the court Of his own conscience.
