A Good Name a Blessing.

A good name is better than precious ointment. ([Eccl. 7 : 1].)

A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches. ([Prov. 22 : 1].)

A Good Name is a Curse.

Woe unto you when all men shall speak well of you. ([Luke 6 : 26].)

Laughter Commended.

To everything there is a season, and a time.... A time to weep and a time to laugh. ([Eccl. 3 : 1, 4].)

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun than to eat and to drink, and to be merry. ([Eccl. 8 : 15].)

A merry heart doeth good, like a medicine. ([Prov. 17 : 22].)
