The nil need never say, "1 am bright." t Language is • abused -whed we talk of the faultsa and failings of others, unit* it is done to proteot the innocent. Speech to the scandal monger or; gosiip- bearer is worse than vitriol in the hands of a fool; used only for evil, without the least counterbalancing good. it de- stroys; blindly, just tor the love of de- stroying the good- nameand- lid,ppiness of others. If all scandal mongers and gossips, were struck dumb the world would be !better for it. Speak - only good of -people, unless duty requires' es to expose. their faults. Language is abused when used to enhance our own troubles by nesking them known to others to awaken -sympathy. If wife scolds and neglects her household; if husband is unkind; if friends neglect you, it is far better to keep it to your- self than to fan the fleme of, sorrow in your own bosom by giving yent to the tire within; The more completely a fire is smothered the sooner and easier it is extinguished.
