THE (10SSI11.
The passage or scripture "Keep your
tongue from evil and your lips from speaking
guile" qnolidby one of our pastors a few
Sablath morulugs since renjlnds us of one of
the Vices certainly Implied la these words
namitl; "gossip" a word which originally
meant a "familiar and customary acquaint-
ance" but wblcb now through misuse and
abuse does duty In Utllnlng a multitude of
small alns and too often each little letter of
the six Ischsrged with the venom of malice
and becomes the mother of "slander" the
acme or social evils. No town neighborhood
or vicinity Is exempt from this evil and we are
prone to wonder wby It Is not more often de-
nounced by the ministers In the pulpit together
with the greater vices drinking gambling
stealing etc. Are they not akin In the sense
that each Is a prlnclpsl factor as a social and
moral enemjl
"Who steals my purse steals trash bcl be
who Blcnee from me my good name robs m of
that wblcjl not enriches him and makes me
poor Indeed." Another of Webster's dsnnl-
tlona of Ibe word Is an "Idle tattler" and IWa
of this ugly but expresslvo signification we
wish to speak. What person la more v.orlhy
orcontempt tban an originator of strife and
dissension among friends and neighbors? one
sample of whom can sow more discord and
misunderstanding In an alternoon than a
whole community can unravel In a twelve
month people who care nothing for reading
and who seemingly have not an Idea about
their own and their neighbors' private affairs
(more especially tbelr neighbors') and who
measure the mental calibre of their acquaint-
ance by the number and style of their gowns)
people of whom they know nothing or whom
they haven't an Idea In common and who have
probably forgotten more tban they are capable
of learning. Imagine a person with a mind
to narrow a soul so small as to And edifica-
tion In carrying "neighborhood news" In
misrepresenting one friend to another with
the malicious design of Injury. No town Is
free from these pests but we are proud to say
they are In the minority with us. Snch ex-
amples are bad enough at all times and In all
places but they appear worse If possible.
when composed as tbey often are of the tran-
sient element of a commnnlty. Whenever a
successful method I attalnsd for silencing
a "news-monger" the evil Itself will cease
and not til I -then. It seems tbsre ought to be
some protection against tbls social plague.
While they are deserving tho ostracism of
all right thinking people tbey also deserve
tbelr commiseration No wall bred Intelli-
gent person csn afford to merit that Ignoble
but significant title of tattler' a word al-
most beneath the dignity of common usage
bnt which circumstances somellmts call
Into requisition.
