There ii wide and deep philosophy contained in that phraseology of the street "Forget it." It it as important t forgot aa to remember. On it at difficult at th other. And ability along one lint it at hard at to acquire at the other. Both moat be cultivated. It it impoeaiblt to become an optimist without learning how to forget. Disa greeable things are bound t happen aod on most train one's self to wipe them off the wind as the boy wipes the figures from bit title. Having erased the ngly memories, it it easier to write the pleas ant things on th slate of the memory. The man who considers himself a nemesis, who treasures up a wrong, who nurses an injury, who lets ignoble hatreds faster in his heart, cannot be a happy man. Mia soul is like a eronobed tiger ready to spring upon the victim of his wrath. Learn how to forget. If it it easier for you to pat on record in your memory personal grievances and to bug an ugly feeling, it is beoauee you have chosen to do so. If yon hoard Dp ia your mind the unhappy episodes of life, it is beoause you have formed the habit of doing so. To persist jo that habit of mind will make yon miserable in the.disposition to remember. Learn to lortet. Let go th uninspiring, th depressing and weakening grievance. Hold on to the memories that cheer and brighten. There it not room for both. Wipe out the resentments. Write in the place of your hatreds the things that are pare and jurt aod lovely and of good report. Let no meaa thing ruffle the serenity of your tout. Forget it. FEMININE PHILOSOPHY. Womsn it more forgiving than msn, but she is not more forgetful. Th bashful man furnishet lots of amusement for womankind. Tne young woman s best weapon is beauty and the older ooe't tsot. The twentieth century matrimonial yoke seems to be made of paper. The aromas who has absolutely no sense of humor it oftentimes th moat amusing one. The average wife knows that to be perfectly happy aha must be blind to many of hubby's faults. Th modern msn who wsnta to suc ceed with modern woman doesn't rely solely upon flattery. A woman often makes a fool of her self because it it elpecled ol her ; man does tb tarn thing because he can't help himself. Every woman has a secret sorrow of which the world is unswsre, and often times her ssdneas it miataken far ooMuess- AIN'T IT THE TRUTH? A womsn limply mutt lov tomttbiog be it mtn or dog. Getting married it ea much of a gam ble as swopping horses. No modern grsss widow ia isciiaed to run to hayaeed. There ia a filed rnle for doing almost everything except making love. Some men think without talking and some talk without thinking. Gossips have no use for people who re fuse to furnish msterial for them. When a man criticises your sclions he eipecls yon to praise his. Perhaps more people would dwell in the state of mstrimony were it not for its variable atmosphere. Chios go News.

But it it a blessedness I A year ago I did not tee it tt I do today We are so dull and thsnkleat and too slow To catob the sunshine till it slips away, And now it seems surpsssiog strange to me That, while I wore the badge of motherhood, I did not kiss mote oft end tenderly The little child that brought me only good. And if some night, when you sit down to rest, You mia the elbow from your tired koee, This restless, ourling head from off your breast, This lisping tongue thst olatters constantly If from your own the dimpled hands had slipped, And ne'r would nestle in your pslm again ; If the white feet into their gra-e had tripped, I could not blame you for your heartache then I I wonder so that mothers fret At little obildreo clinging to their gown, Or thst the footprints, when the days sre wet, Are ever blsck enough to make them frown. If I oould kist a rosy, restless foot, Aod hear a patter in my home onoe more; If I could mend a broken cart today ; Tomorrow make a kite to reach the sky There it no woman in God't world could say She wat more blissfully oontent tbsn I.

Oj that road he met a traveler, of bright and amiling ennntenance, who entreated him to linger amid the violeta of the valleys. But the man of the sad heart pointed to the misty hills, and said: "No; my goal yonder, where the hills are high, and wreathed in mist snd lightning." And to they parted company. But when the man reaohed th misty summiis, th Spirit of th Hills said lo him: "The traveler you met on th way was Hippi noes, tnd hit home is in tht violets tb valleys. Th itan of heiven thin oo these heights, but they thin throngh i mist of tears I THE REfiltR S ADVANTAGES. "If we economise," said ihe husband. we win sooo have a house ol our own instead of having to live in rented prop- erty." "But I'm not aura I should like that, answered the wife.

UN ALWAYS TAKE A OIIIL AT HER OWN ESTIMATE. "I wish I oould make the girl who irts io the street sco herself it others tee her. Whon she makes eyes at a man he, ol course, returns ihe oomt.liment (?) ith interest. It docs not mean that ho thinks her pretty or attractive; he simply means that he thinks it this girl does not respect herself, why should I repeot her. Men always tske i gill st her own estimate If she is self-respecting, dignified snd ladylike, they will treat her accordingly. If the ia forward, bold-looking and ready to meet familiarity, they will meet her on her own ground. They will be free and easy and hail fel low well met with her, but they won't oare to introduce her to their sisters, snd tlioy niil never fall in love with her. Girls often complain that they can't walk dowo the slreet without being spoL co to by some men. As a rule it is en" ely a girl's own fault if she is spoken to or insulted in any. If she walks straight ahead, looking and behaving as a modest, ladylike girl should, she will be comparatively free from aonoyanoe. Men know peifectly well the gills to whom tbey osn speak. Another girl who is inding her own business may walk un molested from one end of the city to the other, "Ever since the world began woman as occupied Ihe enviable position of beiog the one sought after. Man has plaoed her on pedestal and has been content to worship her and work for her and woo her. Just as long ss she keeps her womanliness she will keep her place on the pedestal. When she, of her own accord, climbs down, making herself easy of conquest and, therefore, less desirable, she is in danger of losing her place on the pedestal for good and all. The girl who Silts and has men following her and speaking to her is laboring under the mistaken idea that she is receiving atten tion of a most objectionable tort and it dangerously near iosult."

WATCH AN INCH THICK. In these days of watches no thicker than I silvsr dollar, which jewelers show with pride to their fastidious customers, timepiece of two centuries sgone is rare curiosity. Such a one ia shown in the collection of th Bostonian society at the old state house, Uoston. It represented in its day, probsbly.tne height ot lasnion in watches Its case of silver it heavy, and ita thiok oiyBtal much crowned, with a flat disc at the top, the aiie of a dime. The dial ii silver, at well at the fob chain and charm. The entire thickness of ihe watch is more thsn an inch. This ancient timepiece waa made in 1676, in London, by Thomas Planner, So well did the maker do his work that after 223 years the watch probably oould be relied on to tell the time if properly cleaned and repaired.
