Maxims for Kverybody. 
The fortitude of wise men is only the art 
of concealing their agitations in the heart. 
Nature, who has so wisely arranged the 
organs of our body to make us happy, gave 
us also the pride to spare us the shame of 
knowing our imperfections. 
Sincerety is the opening of the heart. 
Few men have it. Ordinarily it is only a 
fine dissimulation to attract the confidence 
of others. 
We often bestow personal praises which 
disclose by a counter-stroke faults in those 
we praise that we dare not discern in any 
other way. 
Gravity is a mystery of the body invented 
to conceal the defects of the soul. 
Littleness of mind makes one obstinate. 
One is unwilling to believe what lies beyond 
his sight. 
Self-interest, which we accuse of all our 
faults, often merits the praise of all our 
good acts. 
We are never so ridiculous lor the quali¬ 
ties we have, as for those we affect to nare. 
It is with certain good qualities as with 
the senses—those who are entirely deprived 
of them, cannot understand them. 
The great fault of penetration is not that 
of going to the end, but of passing it. 
Few things are necessary to make a wise 
man happy. Nothing contents a fool, and 
this is why most men are miserable. 
Occasion makes us know others, and still 
more — ourselves. 
Every one complains of his memory, but 
no one complains of his judgment. 
If one judges of love by many of its 
effects, it resembles hatred more than 
friendship. 
There is more of self-love than love in 
ealousy. 
Absence diminishes small passions and 
augments great ones, as the wind blows 
out candles and fans the fire. 
One pardons in the measure that one 
loves. 
Politeness of the mind consists in think- 
i ng delicate and chaste thoughts. 
—La Rochefoucauld.

“I am going a hunting to-morrow,” said first , 
“And my second are just about gone; 
So to-day I must buy me another sunply, 
For we start at the peep of the dawn. 
It isn’t third while, so I always have thought. 
When a fifth can buy them so cheap, 
To bother to make them, though many fifths d?,_ 
You can buy for a quarter a heap.” 
“Ho w fourth will it take you to go to the store?

Get the prettiest book that you can.”
