The Value of a Sweet Temper

“THROUGHOUT the many vicissitudes of life, a sweet temper is found to be a valuable asset and a panacea for most ills. It is a Christian virtue of great worth and merit, and its moral influence is boundless. It is graceful, and sits well on old and young. It is the best of all good company, and adorns the wearer more than rubies and diamonds set in gold. How delightful does it make social converse. Here it looks on the bright side of human nature, and is kind in its judgments of others. It is charitable, gentle, and truthful; it scatters comforting words, which produce others in return; and thus good thoughts are cherished and deeds of kindness done.”
