Ube 1l nbeg qw 1 hilosophic Sayings from res. ompkins. 9 The most ditiicult thing' tor a man to do is to lose his life in order to iind it. Did Thomas at Chickamauga choose Snod-grass Hill in order to correlate His- tory and Geography? Geography cannot say to History. Keep oi? the grass. The blessing' ofthe mosquito is to keep folks who have nothing' else to do-busy. Heaven is conceived of as having' an abundance ot what we have not. The deed never returns to the doer-the trouble is. it never leaves the doer. Seek ye tirst the Kingdom ot Heaven -and Heading' and Numbers shall be added unto you.

It ex- tends to the bones and digestion as well. Anything' is beautitiilessxvlietliei' it be a cancer. a cyclone. or a corpse. When matches are made for revenue only, they never prove a success. Figures never lie. but liars sometimes tigure. Two half-teachers never make a whole teacher.
