He had
never curbed his temper before. Here he had been forced to overcome the
fury of a building all in flames. The lesson sank deep into his heart.
To-day nobody knows he has any temper at all.
THE SISTER'S INFLUENCE.
Again, as you are influential in the matter of the future prospects of
your sister, and can probably elevate her lot by your aid in forming
her character, so, too is she often, though to a smaller degree, potent
in turning the tides of your life. She has dear friends of her own sex.
They are at your house. They may come to see you by coming to see her.
You meet these girls at your home, and, perhaps, some day you wake up in
love. Now, if your sister, who admits these maidens into your home, has
that true womanhood which is so admirable, you are certain to have
fallen in love with one of the finest young women in town, and it is
A LUCKY DAY FOR YOU,
for young women usually keep away from young men for whose character
they have no regard. Do not, however, get into the opinion that you are
irresistible, or anywise attractive. It will give you many wounds.
