True peace of mind does not depend, as some seeni,
to suppose, on the external incidents of riches and
poverty, of health and sickness, of friendships and
enmities. It has no necessary dependence upon so
ciety or seclusion; upon dwelling in eitWor in the
desert. Let the heart be right, lt il be fully united
with the will of God, and we shall be. entirely con
tented with those circumstances in which Providence
has seen fit to place us, however unpropitious they
may be in a worldly point of view. He who gainsj
the victory over himself gains .the victory over, all his

The erowa jewel of character is sineerity. On that
depends, our ability to believe tftiat people say, not!
only, bet to interpret fittingly Jtheir aetins.; . An
insineere person is like a flawed crystal, fatally mar
red, and every other brilliant or fine quality is rend
ered worthless by the shocking defect in the grain,
which no excellence of anotehr kind can condone.
In our own lives, in speech, in deed, in thought, a
prime endeavor should be to cultivate a noble candor
an unshrinking fidelity to truth, and an unbroken
sincerity. Temptations come, in social intercourse
to be politely acquiescent in what we do not approve,
to make excuses which we only half believe, to violate
the truth; and we suffer insincerity to eat into our
souls, as "'a corroding rust. ; Truth need never be
brutally spoken! The Bible speaks of the union of
truth and love in our conversation. It is worth much
effort, humility and prayer to attain sincerity in all
things. -' " ...
IIow can aiiy one use the 'scriptures Irreverently 1
We might think that the slightest realization of ' what
they contain'would check every attempt at making
merry with its words or incidents. We are no con
sidering now that irreverent use which indicates ut
let unbelief and hatred, and which becomes shocking,
but simply the quotation of the words and incidents
of the' scriptures to point a jest and raise a laugh, a
In many instances no harm is intended, but harm
is done all the same. Without going very far into tha
subject, and without the many reasons against this
species of irreverence, let it be said that if there were
no other reasan for omitting it, it would be sufficient
to know that when ludicrous aossociation is mads
with a text or an incident it is apt to stick to it
Whenever you think of the text the other, is recalled
Lei it be part of our reverence, then, to treat the
aacerd scriptures as tontaing God's revelation of
truth and life to luen. S.S.Magaaine.
