--SAMUEL SMILES.
To make a young couple love each other, it is only necessary to
oppose and separate them.--GOETHE.

ORDER.--Order is heaven's first law.--POPE.
Order is to arrangement what the soul is to the body, and what mind is
to matter.--JOUBERT.
Order is the sanity of the mind, the health of the body, the peace of
the city, the security of the State. As the beams to a house, as the
bones to the microcosm of man, so is order to all things.--SOUTHEY.
The heavens themselves, the planets, and this centre,
Observe degree, priority, and place,
Insisture, course, proportion, season, form,
Office, and custom, in all line of order.
--SHAKESPEARE.
Fretfulness of temper will generally characterize those who are
negligent of order.--BLAIR.
Let all things be done decently and in order.--1 CORINTHIANS 14:40.

PARADISE.--Every man has a paradise around him till he sins, and the
angel of an accusing conscience drives him from his Eden.--LONGFELLOW.
Gentleness and kindness will make our homes a paradise upon earth.
--BARTOL.

PARENTS.--The sacred books of the ancient Persians say: "If you would
be holy instruct your children, because all the good acts they perform
will be imputed to you."--MONTESQUIEU.
Of all hardness of heart there is none so inexcusable as that of
parents toward their children. An obstinate, inflexible, unforgiving
temper is odious upon all occasions; but here it is unnatural.
