WISPS OF WISDOM.
You have no iden how bigtlie oilier fellow's irouhies are. You may give until you are rich and keep until you are poor. The most troublesome load to carry is a bundle ol bad habits. Some people are not liars, they are .just economical with the truth. The best day for doing your best ir> the one that comes seven times a week. bio job should he easy, bio job is easy if you put all your mind and might into it. \Ye seldom lorget the favours we bestow upon others; let us he equally mindful of those we receive. It is heller to say a good thing about a had fellow than to say a bad thing about a good fellow. “Wild oats" take .something out of the soil of a man's life that no system of crop rotation can restore. Genius is one part inspiration and two parts perspiration. It is no good being clever if you don't work. Humility does not consist in telling our faults, but in bearing to be told of them; in hearing them patiently, and even thankfully.
