RETROSPECTION,
BY JOHN
From out tho mists of Tanished years
Fond memory's voice is stealing,
Raised by the sound that past appears
And wakes the fount of feeling,
It brings before my raptured gnio
The young, the fair, the tender,
And lights the scenes of childhood days
With melancholy splendor.
Through intervening time and space,
As if swift pinions bore mo,

While mcmrry flies before me.
Ag.in before mo lie spread out
Greco hills and woodland a'ley,
Again resounds the joyous shout
That echoed through the valley.
Again to early vows of faith
My iomost heart is thrilling,
Again before alHiotion's breath
My achiog eyes are 6lliog.
With joy my brother's voice I hear
Feel sister's fond caressing,
And smile to see my mother's tear,
And I hear my father's blesiogs.

CASH OR CHARACTER,
IT 18 CUARAOTKtt AND NOT OOI.D THAT
MUST HAVE THE WORl.l).
There is ao old English fable about a
barefooted boy who, while walking along
the highway, saw in the dust s bit of
gold. So irouscd was he by this piece
ol good fortune that, all tho rost of bis
life, ho walked slung to i good old ige and
accumulated quite i fortune, but he
never saw the stars at night, or tho bud,
or olouds of noonday; bo paid no itlcn
tion to tho flowers by the wayside snd in
tho meadows; he did not see the moun
tains, the rivers, tho lakes, tho trees or
the birds. All that life meant to him
was a dusty road where, over and anon,
among the dirt was to bo found a piece
of silver or gold. Life should moan far
more than that, Thero is something
vastly nobler and higher to be sought
than more gold, sod that is a character
that is unsullied, a mind that is pure,
and a heart that is free Irom sin,
One groat fallaoy oonneoted with the
idea of wealth is that in and of itself it
brings happiness Thero is no question
but that, with mooey, we may seoure
msny things that oonttibute to our osse
and happiness. Where people do not
hive enough wholesome food to eat, or
clothing to keep thorn warm, we call that
poverty, and s few hundred dollars would
bring much in the way of cimfort and
happiness; but the idea wo havo in mind
is that which seises tho minds of so many
of our young people thit one must be
as wealthy as a Pullman, a Vanderbilt,
or i Rockefeller before he can enjoy life.
Cash or character ? Mod put a crown
upon the head of a prinoe and call him a
king, but the orowo and glory of the
common man is an unimpeaohable char
acter. "A good name is rather to be
ohosen than great riches."
What the world needs everywhere to
day is men of oharioter. What our na
tion needs, what every Slate and every
oommunity needs is men of character.
For it is character and not gold that
must save the world.

"Why do you treat me with Buch cold

to observe every late comer at church, a

should always remember, however, that
this is bad manners, as bad as to be late
and thus annoy others.

disturbed by this bad habit in his con
