INSPIRING THOUGHTS
SAD THINGS If I list to sing of sad things oft, It is that sad things in this life of breath. Are truest, sweetest, deepest.

X X * * Only a word of command but it loses or wins the field; Only n stroke of a pen but a heart is broken or healed. F. R. Havergal. * * The evening of life brings with it its own lamp. * " -X- * * A man’s virtues should be measured, not by his occasional exertions, but by the doings of his ordinary life. Conversation enriches the'understanding, hut solitude is the school of genius.
