INSPIRING THOUGHTS
FORGIVENESS. The fairest action of our human life Is. scorning to revenge an injury; For who forgives without further strife His 1 adversary’s heart to h;m doth tie. And 'tis a firmer conquest, truly said, To win the heart than overthrown the head. Lady E. Can w. * * * * What an interpreter of Scripture is affliction! How many stars in its heaven shine out brightly in the night of sorrow and pain, which were unperceived or ov ilookd in the garuh day of prosperity. Archbishop Trench. * * * Do not express contempt for, nor pass by, small things; Notice every little thing which presents itself to you, for from small things proceed large things. Notice, that by small things many of our great men found out large things. Thus Newton discover, d the law of gravitation by the falling of an apple before his feet. S. Smiles.
