Show The best of us are hampered in every effort at improvement, not alone by our -own faults, but by those of our neighbors. We inhale the moral atmosphere at-mosphere around us quite as surely as natural air, and the impurity of the one will poison the character as certainly cer-tainly as that of the other will poison the blood. Not congratulations therefore, there-fore, but deep regret should follow the discovery of faults and defects in other people, and if we have not enough sympathy sym-pathy in us to mourn on their account, ac-count, we at least have sufficient rea- json for regret on our own behalf. |
