WINGED ARROWS.
SINCERITY. Let us then be what we are, and speak what we thinii, and in all things keep ourselves loyal to truth. . —H. W. Longfellow. * * * * Get knowledge all you can; and the more you get, the more you breathe upon its nearer heights their invigorating air and enjoy the widening prospect, the more you will know and feel how small is the elevation you have reached in comparison with the immeasurable altitudes that yet remain unsealed. Be thorough in all you do, and remember that, though ignorance often may be innocent, pretention is always despicable. Quit you like men be strong, and the exercise of your strength to-day will give you more strength to-morrow. Work onwards, and work upwards; and may the blessing of the Most High soothe your cares, clear your vision, and crown your labours with reward. • —W. E. Gladstone. * * -x- * Because your house has cellars, It does not follow that you must choose to live in them. On the same principle .1 am determined to live in the upper chambers of being. J. B.
