What Makes A Man

What is it that makes a man? Can you tell? We can tell you what does not. Good clothes do not ; money does not ; a handsome face does not ; learning does not. You must have something else to make a man of.” We have seen a very good description of a man which reads thus :
“A beautiful soul, a loving mind,
Full of affection for all kind ;
A helper of the human race,
A soul of beauty and of grace,
That truly speaks of God within,
And never makes a league with sin.”
This is the kind of man worth something in the world. We want a great many more such
men than we now have. Will you not strive to be such men ? – The British Workman, July 1, 1868
