CHARACTER SHOWN BY BELIEF.

By S. S. Times

CHARACTER is shown by what one believes rather than in what one disbelieves. It takes less of a man to sneer than to praise. Trust is a higher attainment than doubt. Even hatred of evil is no credit to a man who does not love goodness, and show his love for it. Yet how often we see a man seeming to pride himself on the number of his disbeliefs, and on his hostility to things which he dislikes! Being positive and earnest in support of something which one deems worth living for is a surer sign of high manhood than being opposed to forty forms of evil as he sees evil. —S. S. Times.
