BITS OF WISDOM.

The question Is. Who are the
old and who are the young? or
individuals living ut the same
period the oldest has. of course,
the greatest experience, but
among generations Of men the
reverse Of this Is true. Those
who came first tour ancestorst
IRE the young people and have
the least experience. We have
added to their experience the
experience Of many centuries
and therefore. as far as expert
eHce goes. are wiser and more
capable Of forming an opinion
than they were.-Sydney Smith.
