THE GOLDEN RULE

The unhappiest mortals are those
who are always looking up the faults
OF others. This is explained by the
fact that they are trampiing all over
the Golden Rule, which enjoins upon
one friendly Interpretation of an
others life. II very often happens
that man viii shut his eyes to a
score Of virtues merely to see one
fault. and when he does that. and
hangs cloud over the others life. he
does the same for his own This IL
not speculation: 1t is experience. Just
notice how good you feel when you
see the good points OF a man and not
the bad ones. There Is a bank OF
flowers. Enjoy it-behoId its beau
ties and enjoy the fragrance: don't
go nosing among the tangled weeds
looking for a snake. There IL an old
adage: Look on the bright side. and
II there is no bright side. burnish up
the dark side" As to the Golden Rule
we would hate for a person to 90
shopping around. looking up our
faults: and SO we will not do It for an
other. When a great fault protrudes.
denounce 1t, but not the man. for he
may have a dozen virtues that out
weigh 1t ten to one. Besides. the
fault may not be the mans: and fur

 It Is q keynote that may not be glossed over as a beautiful thought, for the same idea bursts out some lines farther on, where he says of the world:

Not merely do we learn that Hamlet was fat man. but also that he was an un- happy fat man. Hamlet was man to whom his bulk was an adllctiOn. He was handicapped by 1t and knew that he was.
