SCRIPTURE.

A good name is better than pre-

than the day of ones birth.
1t is better to go to the house OF
mourning, than to go to the house
of feasting: for that is the end OF
all men; and the living will lay it
to his heart.
Sorrow is better than laughter: for
by the sadness of the countenance
the heart is made better
The heart of the wise is in the
house of mourning; but the heart OF
fools is in the house of mirth.
1t is better to hear the rebuke of
the wise, han for man TO hear the
song of fools.
For as the cracking of thorns un-
der a pot, so is the laughter of the
fool; this also is vanity.
Surely oppression maketh a wise
man mad; and gift destroyeth the
