I dreamed one night an angel came
And stood beside my bed.
In ecstasy I listened while
The angel softly said- "Strive not for golden wealth, alone,
But ever keep in mind,. The grandest wealth the world can know
1s love for all mankind!
"Seek not to fill thy coffers while
Thy brother tails in vain-
· Seek not to cast another down That you may reap the gain. A helping hand, or pleasant smile
Surpasses wealth untold, And loving words are richet, far,
Thao all earth's glittering gold!
"Far, far above the vanity of
fite Thy soul should lead-
. Beyond the sphere of selfishness— Beyond the scope of greed.”
The angel paused-then sweetly spoke
These treasured words to me.... "The measured wealth of every soul
is love and symp thy ("

THE TRUTH ALWAYS, ' "When you are in doubt tell the truth." It was an experienced old diplomat who said this to a beginner in the work. It may pass in somo u things, butol in business. Fraud and decep- tion are often profitable so long as concealed- yet detection is certain sooner or Inter; then comes the smash-up and the punishment. The best and safest way is to tell the truth all the time. Thus you make friends thai stick by you, and a reputation that is always worth twenty shillings to the pound everywhere your goods are offered for sale.
