There is a Chance Lor All If They Will See It and Take it nt the Right Time. It is said that ambition has ruined many souls, but it is only the most indolent beings w ho can sit down ; and be content, when they have every opportunity of improving- ! their condition, ' There is a chance for all if only they will see it and lake it at the : right time. All have heard of the ' crippled newsboy, who, from his , ' misfortune had every right to ex- , peel to be supported, and who, in-; ! stead, supported his mother, gave j his brothers the best education ob-1 j tainable, lining litem for responsi- j ' ble positions in life, and besides all ! this befriended and helped other j j newsboys, transforming them from ! worthless ragamuffins into useful . and self respecting creatures. 1 No one can be truly happy with : out some occupation, and since the days of Adam and live in the Gar- ' den of Eden, work has been the best panacea for all evils. The j ; mind stagnates under a continual j i round of idleness, and it is a very j ! weak mind even if the one poss- j esses great wealth, thai would be j i willing to spend the days in idle-, ness. j j Work has proved the salvation ! j of many a sorrow burdened soul. . When we meet with the great sor- j rows of life our first impulse is to give up and brood, and then the ! weak mind goes under while the ! stronger one seeks strength and help in occupation. The true road to happiness in any walk of life lies in keeping the mind busy and in getting complete ly away from self. At first it seems almost unbeara ble after spending years of study ! at any branch to be forced from ; any cause to give this up, ;iiul be gin over again tit something else: i when the lii'st shock is over the j strong mind will never think ofj giving up, but patiently begin again j at something else, determined to ! make the most of life in spite ofj the crippled condition. j Only those who have suffered a similar misfortune know how hard j it is, after devoting years to the 1 study of music to have all sounds j deadened, or even the partial loss . of hearing; how hard it is to have j the sounds we love locked away I from us, and hardest of all the hu- i man voice; still the great mind J does not give up as dark as it seems, but seeks some way out into the light and sunshine. No matter how well one may ; play l's part hi the world he never 1 j gets over the loss of a sense, even j in dreams, and only faith in the : ! heavenly Father and the knowl- i j edge that He knows will help one ! to bear such a misfortune. ! To make the most of lite one j must learn not to fret or worry: here is a rare bit of prose thai has i helped when restless and impatient j to know the end of things: ; "You can make the clock strike ! by putting your own hands upon j i it, but it will strike wrong; you can tear tne rose duo open oetore its ; time uui you mar tne oeauiy ot tne rose. So we may spoil many a gift or blessing which God is .pre paring for us by our own eager haste. Fie is weaving our lives into patterns of beauty and strength He has a perfect plan for each. Don't pull at the threads of life; God's love is the motive of all de lay, to give us unexpected and surprising blessings."

When heaven was at its bluest, our hearts w ere then the truest, When you and I, were little buys. Those blessed days tire gone now-- the school we loved so dear Has crumbled into nothingness - our schoolmates everywhere, Its old log ribs they kept us warm, they made light against many a storm, When our lives were full of cheer. The lost world that our restless hearts crave, Is buried here and yonder, in many a forgotten grave, With tender thoughts, daily yearning, our reveries are always turning, To the spot where you, and I first gazed. Those rugged hills we played upon, their bosoms hugged in glee, We walked there every foot of earth, and sung their melody. We rested at the spring nearby, the thought of home means a tear wet eye This dream of youth, you share with me. A voyage is before us, the past is left behind. The vision of a brighter day, brings pleasure to the mind, But the joy in our heart we cannot smother, those dear old days we romped with mother, When she in her loveliness, was our valentine. THE LITTLE GREEN TRAIL. Oh, the little green trail through the valley, Is calling me" on and away, Away from the hot, tired city, At the close of a hard, weary day; On and away toward the mountain, Over the hills to a dale, Where the water from nature's own fountain Cools the moss on the little green trail. Oh, the little green trail through the valley, Where the fairies and goblins dwell, And the dreamers worship in silence, To the sound of an Anp.ehis bell; At twilight to list to the singing, Of a soft-throated thrush in the vale, While calm, gentle zephyrs are bringing Sweet peace to the little green trail. Oh, the little green trail through the valley, That leads to the land of Forgot, Where day-dreams come true to a dreamer, And there's no such thing as regret; To live and to lind life worth living, Yea, succeed and never to fail, l-'or love is the prize they are giving ; At the end of the little green trail. 'Saijiius o f y'lrs. Solomon : Being the Confessions of the Seven Hundredth Wife and Translated by Helen Roland for the Washington Herald. Verily, verily, my daughter, one lover exceedeth a college education, ; and many flirtations are better than a course in a university ! Yea, she j that spendeth her time in a class room shall acquire knowledge, but she that spendeth it upon a moon-lit piaza shall acquire wisdom. j For behold, how willingly a youth giveth a damsel lessons in those things which he would not have her know.

It is beautiful to give one day to the ideal to have one day apart. One day for generous deeds, good will, gladness. One day to forget the shadows, the rain, the storms of life; to re member the sunshine, the happi ness of youth and health. One day to forget the briars and thorns on the winding path, to remember the fruits and flowers. One day in which to forget your self and think lovingly of others. One day for the family, the fire side, for the wife and children, for the love and laughter, the joy and rapture ot home. One day in which bouks and slocks and deeds -and interest and mortgages, and all kinds of business and trade arc forgotten, and all stores and shops and factories, and offices and banks, and ledgers and accounts, and lawsuits are cast aside, put away and locked up, and the weary heart and brain are given a voyage to fairy-laud. look m-or u,.hni,i i, ..,n.irh : in Lo, I will marry one unto whom I woman more honor than a I'h. a husband than to get through a clever damsel faileih.

' To the unscientific citizen it is something of a surprise to learn that large parts of the body are alive and useful after the phenom enon popularly known as death has taken place. Few of us sus pect, for example, that our kidneys . and hearts after we have died our selves can in most cases be resus dialed and that if by some surgi . cal miracle they could be trans planted into another body they would quickly resume their func tions. This, however, is a well . demonstrated medical fact. The . human heart has been removed , ; from the body more than thirty : i hours after death and made to j beat again. Dr. Carrel himself! ! has taken the heart from one dog : I and inserted it in the neck of an- other, connecting the aorta with ' ; ilie carotid artery of the new heart : 1 and the vena cava with its jugular : ! vein. In a few moments the live ' dog had two hearts rhythmically beating, one recording a pulse of J eighty-eight and the oilier a nun- j j dred. ! Science lias yei framed no pre- i vise definition of death. The hu-1 ; man body teems and quivers with i life, only a small part of which be j conies a part of individual con sciousness. The healthy man hardly realizes the numerous and complex activities of his internal ! organs. The alimentary canal is i . the abiding place of millions of j micro organisms, the activities of ' which only occasionally influence l our daily life. Bodily tissue every where is constantly breaking down ; and constantly building up, and I yet it is only in the last few years l that even science has begun to un-i-derstand the beautiful chemical re i actions involved in the process. i McCIure's Magazine.

It is Speaker Cannon's book on early Christian ity." "Speaker Cannon's?" "Yes; have you got it ?" The clerk went to the rear of the store and held his head for a few minutes. Then he returned and said : "Possibly it is Cation l-'arrar's 'Farly Days of Chistiani ty' thai you are looking tor." "That's it I" Fxclaimed the fair inquirer.

We think we have seen more girls spoiled by beauty than by any other one thing. "She is beautiful and she knows it," is as much as to say she is spoiled. A beautiful girl is very likely to believe she was made to be looked at; and so she sets herself up for a show at every window, in every door, on every corner of the street, in every com pany at which opportunity offers for an exhibition of herself. And believing and acting thus, she soon becomes good for nothing else, and when she comes to be a middle I "Ke'd woman she is thai weakest, ! most sickening of all human things -a faded beauty.

The divorce rate in the United Stales ai present is something like six hundred and twelve out of ev ery ten thousand marriages. Ger many lags pitifully behind us with a bare one hundred and sixty-five and even France can show only eighty-six. The fact is, the do mestic life of this country is in an appalling condition, says the Rev. Madison C. Peters, 1). I)., in the April New Idea Womans' Maga zine. Excessive fashion is one great foe of home-making. Why the race for riches? For vulgar display, great houses so many houses as to have no home sumptuous furnishings, costly equipages these are the things that seem to constitute for many Americans a perfect paradise in prospect only; for when the liden is gained the hot breath of a si moon has withered the verdure and the flowers, dried up the foun tain, and slain the singing birds, and there is little or no domestic happiness or life. Many a woman would be willing to sacrifice for the sake of becoming a man's wife, but most men who do not marry on die pretext of econo my are persons who could marry if they were willing to sacrifice some of their luxurious habits and private vices and were content to begin life with simple, honest, wholesome comfort, to be increas- ed as life went on. But, no; ihey nut'd start where their parents left oft; they must cut a dash; they love their pleasure too much lo sacrifice any portion of it for domestic bliss. The sen timent has become prevalent that a man must make bis ioruine be foic he marries; that his wife must have no sympathy or share with him in ilie pursuit of it, in which most of the pleasure truly consists. This unfortunate altitude fills our country with bachelors who are waiting to make their fortunes, endangering virtue and promoting vice; it destroys the true economy and design of the marriage institu tion, encourages inefficiency among women, who are expected to be taken up by fortune and passively sustained w ithout any concern on their part. l.ove without esteem is almost as capricious as esteem without love. Women usually like to look on the bright side of things especially mirrors. He who reforms, God assists. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTOR IA AS USUAL. "Did you ever meet your affini ty?"
