FRIENDLY COUNSEL
OLD FRIENDS. The years. ... Have taught some sweet, some bitter lessons, none Wiser than this, —to spend in all tilings else, But of old friends to he most miserly. Each year to ancient friendship adds a ring, As to an oak, and precious more and more, Without deservingness or help of ours, They grow, and, silent, wider spread each year, Their unbought ring of shelter or of shade. —James Russell Lowell. * - * -xThe best part of beauty is that which a picture cannot express. * * * * A healthy body is good ; but a soul in right health—is. . . the blessedest thing this earth receives of Heaven. —Thomas Carlyle. * * * Ceremonies are different in every country; but true politeness is everywhere the same. —Oliver Goldsmith.
