Htackie, in tlie Young Man. Ail high
pressnru is dangerous. Study to think
as easily as yon breathe. N'ver force
yourself to learn what you have no talent
for. Knowledge without love will re
main a lifeless mauufac ure—not a living
growth. Bo content to be ignorant of
many things, that you may know one
t hing well, and that the thing God special
ly endowed you to know. It requires
tire to fuse the material of thinking, no
loss than to melt ih- iron in the foundry.
Bat remember this —however strong
you may lie physically, to strike a blow,
and however sharp, intellectually, to re
cognize a fact and discern a difference,
your success in the gaud of life ciep.uO
on the serious culture which you give to
the third formative force in human
character—your moral nature; and of the
rightful supremacy of this clement, tlie
comprehensive expression is found in tha
single word, love. On this all prophe e,
pne sand philosophers are agreed. St.
Paul says: “Love is the fulfilling of tlie
law.” Burns says:
The heart's aye. the part aye.
That makes us richt or wrung.
And Clue he more largely :
The I zir on splendid trail
Tempts the buyer to s end his cash.
He who g ies to learned college
< oines home crammed w ith empty knowledge;
Hut if true bliss you wish to brook.
Leant to live in quiet no tk;
ll your every veil you strain.
To till the mind witii various lore,
Tis well; but how to use your lore
The lietter wisdom - this to g in.
You must knock at another door.
Nor have you far lolsearch and reek;
Let the tied vs it hill you speak:
Luve a 1 things that love-y lie.
