There are lot) of girls who osnnot gat loTers; but why ? They are nioe enough girls. And all their friends like them; good-looking too, perhaps, yet lovers they oanoot got, For all that they de sire lovers every girl does and marvel why they should ba left out in the eold. The probability is that tbey have them selves to blame; they may not go the ight way about it. It takei s deal ol soienee to really attraot a man in these mes. Oo the other hand, their tongues may be responsible; their style of dress ing may keep the young men away. Re garding this latter the dressing jou may wonder bow that can keep a man from classing a ceitain girl as a sweet heart. Well I will try to eiplain. Some girls, no matter what their posi tion be, spend paclieally every penny they get or earn oo dress; they appear id a new "rig-out far too frequently. A new fashion in furs sets in they must have a muff and neoklet of that fur, even though it be imitation. Well, young men are after all a discerning set. Gills usually don't give them the credit they really deserve for observation. Now, suppose a youth is earning cer tain salary perhaps enough to keep himself and a wifa in comparative com fort, yet not sufficient to permit of any exiravagance. What ia he apt to con clude if be observes tha girl he would like to make his wife everlastingly ap pearing in new clothes ? If he is sensi ble he will readily deoide that she is not fur him. His salary could not stand a constant supplyiog of new desses, and very likely he comes to another conclu sion thst the girl, did she marry bim, ould be discontented with her lot if be did not keep her in the style to which abe bad been accustomed. Perhaps not ooe girl in twenty hss ever dreamed that the too frequent new gows she is proud of sre actually des troying her chaoce of getting a husband, nd she should know for a fact that it is has been so and will be so. N. Y American. IF. If you want to be interesting, don't talk much about yourself. If we ba j more good heareis, we would have more good aermoos. If yon are in the wrong place, your right place is empty. If you waut to be strong n trial, don't forget to pray when you are prosperous, If there is some msn you hate, begin to pray for bim, aod you will get ashamed of yourself, and try to help bim. If you can't be rich, yon can beoome better off by being contented. If you can't do the work you like to do, try to like the work you have to do, If you are a ChiiB'ian, tha devil will ne'er get in front of you unless you turn sround.

Dr. Pierce, chief con sulting surgeon, started experiments, some three years ago, with the Fin sen light in con 1 unction with the X-ray in the treat. ment of diseases. He got excellent results therefrom, and was among the 6rst to adapt this remarkable cure to many cases which it was formerly supposed must of necessity be treated dt the unite. Not only is Dr. R. V. Pierce notable for his surgical achievements at bis hospital in Buffalo, but nearly a third of a century ago be discovered certain roots and herbs which were nature's remedies, and suc ceeded in putting them up in a form that wouia oe easily procurea ana reaay io use. This he called Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It maintains the patient's nu t rit ion by enabling him to eat, retain, digest and assimilate nutritious food. It ov r comes gsstric irritability and symptom- ot indigestion, and in this way fever, nit " sweats, headaches, etc., are done away wnl .

It's very touching, and you'll make a hit with him If you should slsp bim on the shoulder and mention casually That you know the value of a "matrimonial agency." You see, Jim loved Miranda in a speechless sort of way And had loved her sinoe he was a boy, how much he couldn't say, For be never got his nerve up to propose, and so st last He gsve it up, resolved that he would just forget the past. - Then one day he found a paper whioh eontcined a fetching ad. Of a "matrimonial agency," and that made Jimmy glad. He began to correspond with them, snd inside one short week He had picked out by description the girl his heart would seek. He didn't sec her picture, snd he didn't know her nsme, ' But he thought, from what abe So the matrimonial agency arranged that they should meet At their office in the oity, wo, re his vows be eould repeat. When be started for the city he was quite put out to see Thst Mirsnda had an errand there; he wished that he oould see Where her pretty face and figure wouldn't disooncert his mind (This thing of changing sweethearts is a ticklish thing, you'll find). But be hastened to the office where they made a business of Discovering the mate you want grand managers of love And they introduoed him presently, with a triumphant air To tha girl he'd won with their assistsnce, Miss Miranda Fair I Of course that answered, then and there, the question, never asked, That be bad longed to put to her; his heart was quite unmasked.

THOUSANDS OF YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THEN; DOT MEN STILL LIKE To TKLL TnE STORY, All Grceco was in danger. A mighty army, led by the groat ting of Persia, had come from ihe east. It was march ing along I lie seashore, and in a few days would be In Greece- That great king, Xerxes, sent messengers into every city and slate, bidding (hem give water and earth in token that the land and the sea were his. But ihey paid, "No; we will be free." And so there was a gre it stir through out the land. The men armed themselves, aod made haste to go out aod drive back their foe; and the women stayed at home, weeping, waiting, and ticuibliog with fear. .. There was ool) one way by which the I'tr-i.in uruij cruM get imo Greeee on that si le, and that was by a narrow pass betneeo the mountains and the sea. This p 's was guarded by Leonidas, Ihe king ol the Spartan's with three hundred Spjriao soldiers. Soon ihe Persian soldiers were scon coming. I here were so many cf them that no man oould oount them, lion eould a handful of men hope to stand against so great a host ? And yet Loonidas and his Spartans held their ground. They had made up their minds to die at their post. Some one brought them word that there were many Persians that their arrows darkened the sun. "So much the better," said the Spar tan)'; "we shall fight in the shade." Bravely they stood in the narrow pass, Bravely they faced their foes. To Spar tans there was no such thing as fear. lbe remans oame forward, only to meet death at the points of their spears, But one by one the Sparluns fell. At last their spears were broken yet still they stood side by aide, fighting to the last, borne tought witn swords, some with daggers, nod souo odIv with their fi8 and teeth. All day long the army of the Persians were kept at bay. But when tko sun went down, there was not one Spartan left alive. Where they had stood there was only a heap of the s'aio, all bristled over with spears and arrows. Twenty thousand Persian soldiers had fallen before that handful of men Greece was saved, for the pcrsians soon retired. Thousands of years have passed since then; but men still like to tell the story of Leonidas and the brave three hundred who died for their oountry's sake. THE SUNRISE. Straight by an eastern road I went to meet the golden day, I saw the laughing sunbeams come kiss earth's tears away, And crown the npland's misty brow with soarlet leafage gay. I drank the amber brew of dawn, eaoh eager sense a thrill; I merged me in the Infinite, brooding on vale and hill, The sun of peace within my soul uprose is shining still 1 A SUGGESTION.
