FRIENDLY COUNSEL
NO IDLE WORD. What know ye of the gnawing grief That dims perchance our neighbour’s way, The fretting worry, secret pain That may he his from day to day? Then let no idle word of ours Sting his sad heart with more disriiay. We know so little of. the hearts That everywhere around us beat, So little of the inner lives Of those-whom day by day we greet; Oh, it behoves us one and all Gently to deal with those we meet. L. M. MONTGOMERY. .i* .* * . *. * That which we acquire with the most difficulty we retain the longest; as those who have earned a fortune are usually more careful of it than those who- have inherited one. CALEB C. COLTON. #**■»** The world is wide And boldest many a joyous thing.
