FRIENDLY COUNSEL
OPPORTUNITY. , There is a tide in the affairs of men, , Which, taken, at the hood, leads on to | fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in, shallows and in miseries ; And we must take the current when it serves, Or lose our ventures. WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE. ******* Aim at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattainable. However, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unattainable. LORD CHESTERFIELD. 9 * * * # * Men are born with two eyes, but with one tongue, in order that they should see twice as much as they say. CALEB C. COLTON*.
