Many a man thinks he has found a mistake in the Bible Just because li" has run across soniothlng he doesn't want to believe. There aro two classes of men win never protlt by their mistakes tho.1 who blame It on their xvlves and those who lay P nil to Providence. The Loneliness of Ago, tfp kind to the aged. How fexv think of this and treat with due considera tion those who have outlived their gen eration, and x hose enrlx companions and friends have been taken from them. Enable to engage in ihe activi ties of life, they are no longer bronchi Into contact aud sympathy xvih those around them, and no tie of common in terest and mutual dependence binds theiu together. Their views nnd tas-es have naturally growu apart. They share but liuls in commoti with others. The future of th! life ba nothing to Inspire tholr ambition or evcite the'r hopes. What calls for'h tlie energies of others has no inspiration for them. They necessarily, to n great extent, live lu a world of their own. with xvlii' li those around are not familiar. The communion of ilie'.r licnrts Is with the scenes of the past, and the companions of other years who have long ago pass ed away. Lover and friend have been tnkon from them, and their acquaint ance laid In darkness. The forms they admired and loved are gone, and eyes that looked into theirs with the tender est nlleotlons are sitrlitWs. and the voices that cheered and stirred their souls have lone been sileui. Their parly world of hope and joy has be come a desolation, and they iu sileuce "ontemplnte the ruin that has been wro'ight. They have lei' llitle to Inter e? them in the world.

In the Intercourse of sym pathetic people they have a natural place, and It Is as pleasant to recog nize by word or look the charms of out friends as It Is to profit by them, rront w-e do, undoubtedly, as all that makes life fnlrcr makes It better, and a whole some discernment of good traits must add to our faith In human naturo and Its capabilities. Kigld moralists do dare that compliments are so akin to flattery that It Is wrong to use praise In any way.
