MRS FRY'S RULES.

1. Never lose any time: I do not think that lost which is spent in

amusement or recreation some time every day; but always be in the habit

of being employed. 2. Never err the least in truth. 3. Never say an

ill thing of a person when thou canst say a good thing of him; not

only speak charitably, but feel so. 4. Never be irritable or unkind to

anybody. 5. Never indulge thyself in luxuries that are not necessary.

6. Do all things with consideration, and when the path to act right is

most difficult, feel confidence in that Power alone which is able to

assist thee, and exert thy own powers as far as they go.--_Memoir of

Elizabeth Fry._
