Faith in one's self is tlryeatest force in human character. There is an inherent power in you which only requires to be drawn out to demonstrate its possibilities. The steam engine is a formidable looking piece of machinery, but without the power of steam is use less scrap iron. So the power within you, if allowed to remain dormant, becomes worthless. Those who have forged to the front have implicitly believed in their own powers. Greatness con sists in going beyond your neigh bor in some particular line of en deavor. Your individuality is the product of your thought, and you control your own thought. What has made Edison the wiz ard of the twentieth century? A belief in himself. Too many peo ple sit down by the shore and await for the tide, and when it does not flow their way they be moan their fate. Fate had noth ing to do with it. Bad luck is bad pluck. Louise M. Alcott had faith in herself. When she sent her first manuscript to the Atlantic Monthly they returned it, saying that she had better slick to teaching. She kept on writing, and in spite of her sickness, earned $200,000 with her pen. Look at Helen Keller born deaf, dumb and blind. With that indefinable quality called grit and invincible determination she made herself one of the best educated women in America, and her op timism is cheering millions. When you speak from your divine self hood you are a goddess. Marie Corelli says, "If we choose to be no more than clods of clay, we shall be used as clods of clay j for braver feet to tread on." The thought that you are not as good as others will paralyze your j ability. The positive, optimistic J woman who takes hold with the inspirational impulses her divinity magnetizes conditions. The creative power of affirma tive thought brings success and happiness from the most adverse circumstances. Self-poise, inward concentration, personal reliance radiates assu rance and give toothersconfidence to trust you to encompass what you undertake. The affirmative belief in self banishes doubt and gains victories. You can go almost anywhere if you will. Swim off and don't wait for anybody to put a cork under you.

Could we but draw back the curtains That surround each other's lives See the naked heart and spirit, Know what spur the action gives Often we should find it better, Purer than we judge we should. We should love each other better If we only understood. Could we judge all deeds by motives See the good and bad within Often we should love the sinner All the while we loathe the sin. Could we know the powers working To o'erthrow integrity, We should judge each other's errors With more patient charity. If we knew the cares and trials Knew the efforts all in vain, And the bitter disappointment Understood the loss and gain Would the grim, eternal roughness Seem, I wonder, just the same, Should we help where now we hinder, Should we pity where we blame? Ah ! we judge each other harshly, . Knowing not life's hidden force Knowing not the fount of action Is less turbid at its source: Seeing not amid the evil All the golden grain of good; And we'd love each other better If we only understood.

TUAVIS, "You ought to have a burglar alarm system in your house," said the electrical supply agent, "so that you will be awakened if a bur glar raises one of the windows or opens a door at night." "No burglar can get in here while we are peacefully sleeping," replied Mr. Newpop. "We are weaning our baby." A DEVOTEE. "Who is Jane to marry?" "His name is Bridge."

OeWITT'S CARBOLLZED WITCH HAZEL SALVE For PUm, Burn tort THE CHILDREN LIRE IT KENNEDY'S LAXATIVE COUGH SYRUP BILIOUS? CONSTIPATED? HEADACHE? All wondering and eager eyed, within her portico, I made my plea to Hostess Life, one morning long ago. "Pray, show me this great house of thine, nor close a single door; But let me wander where I will and climb from floor to floor ! For many rooms, and curious things, and treasures great and small, Within your spacious mansion lie, and I would see them all." Then Hostess Life turned silently her searching gaze on me, And with no word she reached her hand and offered up the key, It opened first the door of Hope, and long I lingered there, Until I spied the room of Dreams, just higher by a stair. And then a door whereon the one word "Happiness" was writ, But when I tried the little key I could not make it fit. It turned the lock of Pleasure's room, where first all seemed so bright, But after I had stayed a while, it somewhat lost its light, And wondering down a lonely hall, I came upon a room Marked "Duty," and I entered it, to lose myself in gloom. Along the shadowy walls I groped my weary way about And found that from dull Duty's room a door of Toil led out. it led out to another door, whereon a crimson stain Made sullenly against the dark the words: "The Room of Pain." But, oh, the light ! the light ! the light ! that spilled down from above, And upward wound the stairs of Faith, right to the tower of Love. And when I came forth from that place, I tried the little key, And, lo I the door of Happiness swung open, wide and free. (Copyright, 1910, by the New York Evening Journal Publishing Company.) The Man Who Has Not Spent Some Time in the Country Has Missed a flreat Deal. That is just another way of ex claiming : "Down on the Farm." The is heard by many at this sea son of the year, when "spring has sprung," and the sunshine is getting warm and the birds are singing. 1 he oreenviiie News hears and writes : "This is the season of the year when one fairly yearns for the open country life; to see the cows in the pasture and watch the warm smoke rise from the soil as it is turned over by the farmer's plow." The other day a paper published in Georgia gave this good advice : Let the young man about town out of a job try a year on the farm. Plowing will give him a new con stitution, take the kinks out of his head, the frog out of his throat, the gas off his stomach, the weari ness out of his legs, the corn off his toes, and give him a good ap petite, an honest living and a sight of heaven. We feel sorry for any man who has not had the experience of at least one year in the country on a farm not as a visitor or a board er, but as a worker. There is no one year of work in any college in the land that will put as much of real stuff in a boy that he is going to need in the conflicts and trials of afterlife as one year of good, honest toil on the farm in the coun try. And this is not in depreca tion of a single day that a young man spends in school or college. He needs both; but if he can't get both, it is belter to cut out one school year and attend the greatest of all universities nature's. You know nothing of problems if you have never tried to drive a frisky pig back through the hole in the fence where he came out. And there is the joy of breaking a hard headed mule colt, and roping of the calf or holding him by the ears. You know it's easy; but just try it once; and then you will have no complaint to make of football's brutality. On a farm you can try cultivated skill against nature's own way of doing things. If you have never followed a plow all day until every muscle began to grow numb from fatigue, and felt the grateful pressure of the bed against your tired body as you retired for the night, you have missed one of the sweetest experiences nature has in store for you. Put in a year or two on a farm somewhere young man; and if you don't like it well enough to make it a lifetime business, you'll at least secure a benefit and a deal of experience that you can get no where else. And in after years, when you become acquainted with the ways of the world the great, grasping and greedy, world and feel its coldness and insincerity and selfishness, and have to fight for your honor as well as your for tune, if you are a real human you will recall your experience on the farm as the most valuable and the sweetest memory of your ex perience.

Will the manager of the St. Paul 1 find it necessary to forbid the play-' ing of "Dixie" provided, of course, i an orchestra is hidden behind that palm screen ? Out in Denver, in j the famous Hofhrau, it has been found that "Dixie" is as danger ous to Denverites as the "Mar selliaise" was to Frenchmen in the days of the revolution. Denver diners, particularly after-theatre diners, behave with the customary American lack of animation until "Dixie" happens to be played. Then the hundreds of men and women in the cafe rise to their feet and enact "Dixie." From then on, till closing hour. "Dixie" is in their blood, on the tips of fingers and toes, and repeated calls come for the song. The managers, in order to preserve order, have ordered "Dixie" omitted from the cafe menue.

He was in love with a fair being of suitable ago, but he would not tell her so, and though sho knew it she could not very well give him a hint on the situation. She was willing, because she had arrived ttl that tilno of life when a woman is not nearly so hard to please as she might have been at some other time; but he was stupid, and went away without a word. He was gone a long, long time, and when he came back he found her still ready. "I have come back after many years," he said to her, as he took her hand in greeting.
