hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are gone forever!--HORACE MANN. As every thread of gold is valuable, so is every minute of time.--MASON. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time, who never loses any.--THOMAS JEFFERSON. Make use of time, if thou valuest eternity. Yesterday cannot be recalled; to-morrow cannot be assured; to-day only is thine, which, if thou procrastinatest, thou losest; which loss is lost forever.--JEREMY TAYLOR. He is a good time-server that improves the present for God's glory and his own salvation.--THOMAS FULLER.
