JUDGING OTHERS.
To judge the actions and sayings of others without being fully acquainted with all the circumstances leading to them is, to say the least, unfair. In the ordinary course of life many things may be said or done which according to a striet code might be deemed blameworthy, yet it iB quite possible, if all the details were known, that the departure from the ordinary rule would be looked upon as one of those cases more honoured in the breach than the observance. Many human deeds and spoken words have to be judged on their merits only, but before expressing disapproval or contempt of any person or action great care should be exercised not to lay oneself open to the accusation of having distorted the truth. It is becoming that in passing judgment upon our neighbours' mistakes we should ghow not only feirnesa but generosity, r-L.C.
