True Manliness: From the Writings of Thomas Hughes
Hughes, Thomas
Conduct of life
No two men take a thing just alike, and very few can sit down quietly
when they have lost a fall in life’s wrestle, and say, “Well, here I
am, beaten no doubt this time. By my own fault too. Now, take a good
look at me, my good friends, as I know you all want to do, and say your
say out, for I mean getting up again directly and having another turn
at it.”
CLIV.
No man who is worth his salt can leave a place where he has gone
through hard and searching discipline, and been tried in the very
depths of his heart, without regret, however much he may have winced
under the discipline. It is no light thing to fold up and lay by for
ever a portion of one’s life, even when it can be laid by with honor
and in thankfulness.

FROM DIFFERENT STANDPOINTS.
By _Pansy_ and _Faye Huntington_. 12mo. Price $1.50, Boston: D. Lothrop
& Co.,
If there is any better writer of Sunday School books than “Pansy,” we
should like to make her acquaintance, she has a rare tact in story
telling, and knows quite as well what to omit as what to say. Even the
sternest critics, of S. S. Literature surrender to Pansy, in spite of
themselves, and confess that her books are worth reading.
