FRIENDLY COUNSEL
FLOWERS. What a desolate place would be a world without a flower! It would be a face without a smile, —a feast without a welcome! Are not the flowers the stars of the earth? and are not our stars the flowers of heaven? Humility, that low, sweet root From which which all heavenly virtues shoot. ******* THOMAS MOORE. Much will always wanting be To him who much desires. Thrice happy he To whom the wise indulgency of Heaven, With sparing hand, but just enough has given. ABRAHAM A. COWLEY. •** * 1 A just and reasonable modesty does not only recommend eloquence, but sets off every talent which a man can be possessed df. It heightens all the virtues which it accompanies. JOSEPH ADDISON.
