BE OF GOOD CHEER.
THE VALUE OF THOUGHT.
It is impossible to estimate the value of thought, and the profit to lie derived from its exercise and use. Thought gives value to everything, little market wit or wisdom is of little market value or personal, prifit. Works of skill are costly. Skilled labour commands the highest market price. Thought potentially so abun•dant, the actual scarcity of thought enhances its value. * * * * Those who cry the loudest have generally the least to sell. Expediency is men’s wisdom. Doing right is God’3
—C. Meredith

That hard road of self-denial, so uncongenial to us all in itself has proved to everyone who lias taken his way honestly along it, in very truth the way of light.
—E. Lyall
