FRIENDLY COUNSEL
CHEERFULNESS. What, indeed, does not that word “ cheerfulness ” 1 imply? It means a contented spirit; it means a pure heart; it means a kind and loving disposition; it means humility and charity; it means a generous appreciation of others, and a modest opinion of stupid people, people who do not know how to laugh, are always pompous and self-conceited; that is bigoted; that is cruel; that is ungentle, uncharitable, unchristian. —W. M. Thackeray. -x- -x- -x- -XA good man is the best friend, and therefore soonest to be chosen, longer to he retained, and indeed never to he parted with. —.Jeremy Tayior. •x- -x- -x- -xThough joy itself by transient and fleeting, it is preceded by long hope, and followed by yet longer recollections. —Jean Paul Richter. ■x- * * # Th rough wilds and forests let me range; My joys shall pomp and power outmst— The voice of nature cannot change. —Robert Bloomfield.
