SENTENCE SERMONS
By Henry F. Cope.
Self shrinks the soul.
The keen eye needs the kindly
heart.
There's no argument equal to a
happy smile.
Imaginary evils have more the im
aginary effects.
You never find truth by losing the
temper.
Menial work may be noblest service.
Homes are often closest knit abont
some grave of separation.
Weapons that fly off the handle have
little effect on the walls of sin.
The leaders of men are not the ones
who are trying to get ahead of their
fellows.
The life that would be fruitful seeks
shower as well as sunshine.
You cannot travel toward heaven
with your back turned to honor.
Earthly prudence is a large part cf
heavenly providence.
When two churches find a bone cf
contention you may be sure the devil
has the meat.
Many a man thinks that taking a
lease on a front pew gives him a free
hold on a corner lot in heaven ;
Success is not in an endeavor to do
a great thing, but in repeated endeav
ors to do greater things.
In the European cathedrals they
gather the dust of the dead, but in the
American churches the great thing
is to get the dust of the living
When a man says "I will," some
thing may be done, but when a woman
says "I will," something has got to be
done.
