THE KAISER'S RULE OF LIFE.
Ihe "Outlook," of New York, publishes the following translations from a German paper of sentences that hang in the workroom of the Kaiser, so arranged that His Majesty has them always before him when sitting at his desk:—"Be strong in pain." To wish for anything that if. unattainable is worthless." "Be content with the day as it is; look for the good in everything." "Rejoice in nature and people, and take them as they are." "For a thousand bitter hours, console yourself with one that is "beautiful." Give from your heart and mind always the bast, even if you do not receive thanks. He who can learn and practice this is indeed a happy, free, and proud one; his life will always be beautiful. He who is mistrusting wrongs others and harms himself." "It is our duty to believe every one to be good-as long as we have not the proof to the contrary; the world is so large and we ourselves so small that everything cannot revolve around us." "If something damages us, hurts us, who can tell if that is not necessary to the welfare of creation." "In everything of this world, whether dead or alive, lives the mighty, wise will of the Almighty and All-knowing Creaitor; we little peoole only lack the reason to comprehend it." "As everything is so it has to be in this world, and, however it may be, should always seem good to the mind of the creature."
