In determining proper motives of conduct it is easy to perceive ' that the higher are more com- . mendubie than the lower and that even au act of justice and boneVolence loses sometuiug of its charm when known to be in spired by tbe soidsli desire of . human applause. It wus tbe gay poet of antiquity who said that - concealed 1 virtue differed little from sepnlchered sluggishness. But this is a heathen sentiment, alien to reason and to truth. It ' is hoped that men will be bon- . est. bu. from a higher motive, than because honesty Is the best policy. It Is boned tbnt they will be hnninne. but for a nobler cause than the fame ot buman- ; Hy. Charles Suniuec. " RIMED QUOTATIONS, i -Soar not too tiiii .o, fall, but stoop to rise; Massluger.
