THE HEART’S DESIRE
ACTS, NOT WORDS. A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man that actions, not words, are the true criterion .of the attachment of friends; and that the most liberal professions of good-will are very far from being the surest marks of it. —Georgc Washington. * * * -£ Whoso neglects a thing which he suspects he ought to do, because it seems to him too small a tiling, is deceiving ,himself: it is not too little, but too great for him, that he doetli it not. -X- -X- -X- -XWhen our souls shall leave this dwelling, The glory of one Hair and virtuous action Is above all the ’scutcheons on our tomb, Or silken banners over us. —Shirley. -X- * _ * * In children a great euriousness be well, Who have to learn themselves and all the world.
