CONSIDER WELL-BEFORE CHOOSING YOUR FRIENDS.
'Associate with, the go^d,/ says an old proverb, 'and -you will be esteemed as one of them.' A girl cannot be too, careful about her companionships. 4F s heM S careless in this- matter she' is sure to. deteriorate herself in the estimation of others. • Friendsh.ps that are- quickly formed, rarely- ripen ' with' the and are frequently the cause of much iinhappiness. .The thoughtful gn-L chooses her friends carefully and cultivates, their society in such a happy, well-bred vvay that , her friendships .are always a source of real pleasure. Just -as the least blemish spoils the beauty of ±Ke lily,, so the little mistakes that the careless girl makes r rob her-character of its charm, and leave her with a name that does not stand- for much in the estimation of others Opimons rule the world,' says -Carlyle, and happy, indeed, is the glrlg lr l who has made only 'and sweet" ones " *•'-'■ .
