FRIENDLY COUNSEL
SERVICES OF A FRIEND. A blessed thing it is for any man or woman to have a friend; one human soul whom we can trust utterly ; who knWs the best and the worst of us, and who loves us, j in spite of all our faults; who will speak the honest truth to us, while the world fhuters us to our face, and laughs at us behind our back; who will give us counsel and reproof in the day of prosperity and selfconceit ; hut who, again, will comfort and encourage us in the day of diificulty and sorrow, when the world leaves us alone to fight our own battle as we can. CHARLES KINGSLEY. . -X- -X- -X- -XBeautiful is the love of a sister—the kiss that hath no guile, and no passion ; the touch of purity, and bringeth peace, satisfaction to the heart, and no fever to the pulse.; Beautiful is the love of a sister! it is moon-light on our path, it hath light, but no heat, it is of heaven, and sheds its peace upon the earth.
