FRIENDLY COUNSEL
CONTRASTED CHARACTERS. Angry and choleric men are as ungrateful and unsociable as thunder and lightning, being in themselves all storms and tempests; but quiet and easy natures are like fair weather, welcome to all, and acceptable to all men; they gather together what the other disperses, and reconcile all whom the other incenses; 'as they have the good will and the good wishes of all other men, so they have the full possession of themselves, have all their own thoughts at peace, and enjoy quiet and ease in their own fortunes how strait soever it may be. EARL OF CLARENDON. • **#*■» Be doing, and waste not life’s precious hours in idle rcv’rie. Get upon the line And dream not at the station all the day, Till every train has passed. S. W. PARTRIDGE. ****** Strive constantly to concentrate yourself; never dissipate your powers. J. W. VON-GOETHE.
