CAN YOU THINK OF ANYTHING BETTER?
The best law-the Golden Rule.
The best education-self-knowledge.
The best philosophy-a contented mind.
The best war-to war against one's weaknesses.
The best theology-a pure and beneficent life.
The best medicine-cheerfulness and temperance.
The best music-laughter of innocent childhood.
The best science+xtracting sunshine from a cloudy day'
The best art-painting a smile upon the brow of childhood.
The best journalism-printing the true and beautiful on memory's tablet.
The best telegraphing-flashing a ray of sunshine into a gloomy heart.
The best biography-that life which writes CHARITY in largest letters.
The best mathematics-that which doubles the most joys and divides the most sorrows.
The best navigation-steering clear of the lacerating rock of personal contention.
The best diplomacy-effecting a treaty of peace with one's own conscience.
The best engineering-building a bridge of faith over the river of death.-World Call.

Private: "Yes, Sir."
Sergeant: "You sure about that, Soldier?"

Sergeant: "'Well, Soldier, tomorrow morning when you shave. stand a little closer to the razor, see?"
Another Day
King Hassan, well-beloved, was wont to say, When aught went wrong, or any labor failed, "Tomorrow, friends, will be another day." And in that faith he slept, and so prevailed.
Remarks
The supervision of a railroad received the follorying note from one of his track foremen: "Am sending the accident report on Casey's foot, when he hit it with the spike mallet. Now, under 'remarks,' do you want mine or Casey's?"
Just Like One
"Did Jones take his bad luck like a man?"
"He sure did. He blamed it all on his wife"'
