FRIENDLY COUNSEL
LIFE SWEET OR BITTER. Happiness is not what we are to look for. Let us do right, and then whether happiness come, or unhappiness, it is no very mighty matter. If it come, life will be sweet; if it do not come, life will be bitter —bitter, not sweet, and yet to be borne. JAMES A. FROUDE. Selfishness is the only real atheism ; aspiration, unselfishness, the. only real religion. ISRAEL ZANGWILL. -x- -x- *■ * Toil is polished man’s vocation; Praises are the meed of skill; Kings may vaunt their crown and station, ; We will vaunt our labour still. ■ i ' MANGAU. -x- . * *’ Luxury is an enticing pleasure, a bastard mirth, which has honey in her mouth, gall in her heart, and a sting in her tail. VICTOR HUGO.
