In tho hustle and bustle of this twentieth oenlury, when as lonio one hm said, "if one stops to tie bis shoe strings be is left behind," it is the tact ful pcrsoo who ii going to got most out of life. Tho woman who understands her own possibilities and limitations so well that she knows just when and wl.erc to sup- p'ement her own capabilities by using these of others, and who sees the limita tions of others and makes up for their lack with her own resources, has, after all, only herself to thank for any success she may obtain, The tactful woman knows that she oannot afford tn "out" even her "dearest enemy;" that she must lot many little things past by, and smile, and smile. blie cultivates the art of making people think she likes them and is interested, where she might Snd a ready excuse for being bored. PRESERVE YOUTH AND HEALTH. Avoid fear in all its varied forms of expression. It is the greatest enemy ot the human race. Avoid excesses of all kinds; they arc injurious. The long lifo must be a temperate, regular one. Don't live to eat; but eat to live. Many of our ills are due to overcreating, to eating the wrong things and to ir regular eating. Don't allow yourself to think on your birthday that you are a year older and so much nearer the end. Never look on the dark side; take sunny views of everything; a sunny thought drives away the shadows. Be a child; live simply and naturally and keep clear of entaogling alliances and complications of all kinds. Cullicuto tho spirit of contentment, all discoutent aod dissatisfaction bring furrows prematurely to the face. Form a habit of throwing off beforo going to bed at niht all the cares and anxieties of the day evciything which oao possibly eause mental wear and tear or deprive you of rest. REFEC1 IONS OF A BACHELOR. A woman can't help feeling proud of a husband who gets lots of telegrams. It docs seem the shorter a girl's legs are the longer the stockings she insists on wearing. It's curious that no general ever thought of terrifying the enemy by mak ing it face the cook. The woman who brags to others about her husband doifn't d i it to convince them, but herself. Very few women have any doubts that other men would envy their husbands it they knew what they know about them. An armful of girl is pretty exciting the first time. No woman was ever big enough to ov rleok social distinctions in a great cause, Habit may be one of our best allic ell as oop of our worst eiemies. MEW THOUGHTS.

When I was but a little child, how well I recollect How I would grieve my mother with my folly and negleot, And now that she has gone to heaven I miss her tender care, 0 angels, tell my mother I'll be there. Chorus: Tell mother I'll be there, in answer to her prayor, This message, guardian angels, to her bear ; Tell mother I'll be there, heaven's joys with her to share, Yes, tell my darling mother I'll be there, Though I was often wayward, she was always kind and good, So patient, gentle, loving, when I acted roufih and rude, My childhood griefs and trials, she would gladly with mesharo, 0 angels, tell my mother I'll be there. When I became a prodigal and left the old roof ttec, She almost broke bcr loving heart io mourning after me, And day and night she prayed to God to keep me in lis care, 0 angels, tell my mother I'il be there. One day a message came to me, it bade me quickly oonie, If I would soe my mother, tro the Saviour took hor home ; 1 promised her, before she died, for Heaven to prepare, 0 angels, tell my mother I'll lo there.

We thank Thee, 0 Father, for song and for feast, The harvest that glowed aud the wealth that increased ; For never a blessing encompassed earth's child But Thou in Thy mercy looked dowoward and smiled.

The Alchison (Kan ) Globe has an appeal to men to be good, first, because it pays lo be good, and seoonil, because 'it is eaner to be a good man than it is tobo a bad one." "lou must live," it aids; then thy not live in the easiest ay. The Globe defines a good man as cno who is "industiious, loyal, intelligent and well behaved." Aod it tells a story of such a man who formerly worked in bison lor 8100 a month, and is now receiving a salary of $10,000 a year lo uslrale its argument that uoodncfS p-iys "and thoic who ro patient arid work aiay iho lest they can ato always reen-ii.iz d and sub-tautiilly rewarded " 1 here ha two n great d al of that sort of talk io neme e.f li e n.aj;i Z'ms, ind inilic inl.nievis villi succi.s.-ful mi n iJUoii.hul io the newspapers. It k li nt gin s a very irroncous im pression in regard lo tho fact. Tho vast majority of our eitiiens are industrious, loyal, intelligent aud well-behaved, and yet a very large proportion of that ma jority havo not made and are not likely to make any great headway in tho direc tion of a $10,000-a-yoar incomo. The Globe makes tbe point that its typical good man who now gets $10,000 a year with less work than ho did when he was only getting $100 a month, is 'no great genius." That is very likely. The sucocsslul man is very often a man of very moderate mental capacity. But, unless his success has como through special influence or through what is com monly called good luck, he must have some quality that fits him for special effectiveners in the line in which he has achieved success. The money making or succcss produc- ing faculty is a thing by itself and often manifests itself in a very marked degree in a man whom no one would have pick ed as a winner beforo he achieved his first well-defined success. It is a mischiovous delusion to teach young men that they have a right to loot lor great success in Hie as the re ward of simple goodnefs industry. loyalty, intelligence and good behavior. These things are good in themselves, and they will give a man a very much better chance to get on in the world than lie could have without them, but even with them the great majoiity of men can only hope to make a moderate living, and per haps lay up a little every year against a rainy day, or for old ago, or for those who shall como after them. Goodness does pay; it pays tremen dous profits, but these profits are not measured by dollars and cents. The most valuable possession every man has is himself, and good conduct helps him to make the most and best of himself. That is true even ot the kind of good ness described by the Globe; it is infinite ly more true of the kind of goodness which tho Bible requires of us. The former is goodness in some of our rela tions with other men; the latter is good ness in our relatioos with God. This includes the other, of course. Wo can not be right with God unless we are try ing to do our duty toward man. But there is all the difference in tho world between the loyalty io our conduct to ward other men that springs only from a desire to win their approval and that of our own conscience and that which springs from love to Uod and lovo (0 man for God's sake. This latter kind of goodness seldom brings any great re ward in dollars and cents. It is its own reward It haB "the promise of the life which now is and of that whu-ri is to onme;" it fulfils that promise by enrich ing life aod beautifying it New York Witness.

HUT THE 1'I.NE WAS IN F.AKN1-ST An iutereatiog verdict was rendered in the disliict oourt ot Travis county, Tex., 1837. The defendant, Frank H, IUfer, at that time a well known citizjn of Aus tin, was accused of gambling, which was not regarded as a very serious effenso in 'exas in those early days, especially if he offendir chanced to ho a promiocnt citizen, The prosecuiiiu was generally treated as a pleasant j-st, but was nevertheless nrricd through in earnest, and a jury imposed of lawyers brought io tbe fol lowing verdict : Wo, the jury, lawful men. Fine the defeiidiir.1 dollars teo; A guilty man beyond all doubt, Let the defendant pay himself out. Tbus we've said this Irerziog morn, Your obedient servant, A. 0. Home, Foreman. The composition of this verdict is at tributed to A. W. Terrell, who at the time of his s.rvioo on the jury was a young lawyer. Afterward he attained great distinction in practice, served as a district court judge and was Uuitcd Slates minister to Turkey under Presi dent Cleveland. Other members of the same jury who ftorward achieved renown were Chirles West, who rose to be a ju tice of the Texas Supreme court, and F. W. Chan dcr, who became one of the leaders of tho Texas bar.
