THE CHEERFUL TRAVELLER
INFECTIOUS GOODNESS, There is contagion in a sweet and beautiful character for health is contagious as well as disease. We are all the time giving to ‘others either wholesome or unwliftlesome moods—poisoning their atmosphere with doubt and suspicion or clearing it with helpfulness and good cheer. * * Many a man who thinks be bears a great enterprise on bis shoulders is simply round-shouldered Irom carrying a large load cf self-conceit. *'* * * When thou wishest to delight lby sc; l think of the >-irtues of tho.se who live with, thee: for instance, the activity of one, and the modesty of another, and the liberality of a third, and some other good quality of a fourth. hov nothing delights so much as the examples of virtues, when they are exhibited in the morals of those who live with us, and present themselves in abundance. Wherefore, we must keep them before us. M. Antoninus.
