We are all very much alike in this world as it regards faults and failings. We all have plenty of them. Each one of us has at least enough of his own to make him very modest in pointing out those of his neighbour. The trouble is, however, that most of us have eyes so constructed or so adjusted as to see the faults of others much more clearly than our own. It is not hard to get almost anybody started at criticising others and pointing out their infirmities. What a pity it is that we have not eyes for the beautiful things in others! What a relief it would be to hear everybody you meet speaking in commendation of his neighbours and praising their virtues! Would it not be worth while to try to turn the tides of talk into this new channel for a time?
