WHAT WILL THE NEIGHBORS SAY? Keeping House lor One's Own Comfort. He was wise who wroie: "Half the siing of poverty or of small means is gone when one keeps house for one's own comfort, and not for the comment of one's own neighbors." Deny it as we will, few of us have the moral force to sei up a standard of our own, based upon our own incomes and our own particular house environ ments. We commit the Fully of regulating our expenses by the in come of some one else. If the Browns across the street hang yji expensive lace curtains, we are discontented until lace curtains have gone up to our windows, no matter how much smaller our in come may be than that of the browns. If the Smiths put down a velvet carpet onr neat and pretty ingrain becomes an eyesore to us. We are extremely mindful of what our neighbors will think about many things thatshould not concern them in the least. We have no standard of our own. Our dress and even our tables must be regulated by the standard, of others. We have not the courage nor the indepen dence to be different to the com ment of our neighbors. This form ot moral cowardice is causing many families to live beyond their incomes. They can face debt, and forfeit their self-respect easier than they can face the unfavorable com ment of their friends and neigh bors. The extent to which this imitation of others is carried would be ludicrous, if it did not bring so much unhappiness in its train. It is frequently the direct cause of discord and discontent and debt that have driven happiness from the family hearthstone. Let us have a standard of our own, based upon our needs, and let us bravely adhere to this standard, heedless of that dreadful bugbear: "What will the neighbors say?" SIIAKi;SHi:.l:AN l.ADII-S.

She stood at the bar of justice, A creature wan and wild, In form too small for a woman, In feature too old for a child. For a look so worn and pathetic Was stamped on that fair young face, It seemed, long years of suffering Musi have left their silent trace. "Your name?" said the judge, as he eyed her With kindly look, yet keen. "Is Mary Maguire, if you please, sir," "And your age?" "I have turned sixteen." "Well, Mary," and then from a paper He slowly and gravely read. "You are charged here, I am sorry to say ii, With stealing three loaves of bread. You look not like an offender And 1 trust that you can show The charge to be false; now tell me, Are you guilty of this, or no?" .A passionate burst of weeping Was at first her sole reply, But she dried her tears in a moment And looked in the judge's eye. "1 will tell you just how it was, sir, My father and mother are dead, And my linle brother and sisters Were hungry, and asked me for bread. At first I earned it for them By working hard all day, But somehow times were hard, sir, And the work all fell away. "I could get no more employment, The weather was bitter cold. The young ones cried and shivered, Little Johnnie's but three years old, So what was I to do, sir? I am guilty, but do not condemn: I took, oh, was it stealing? The bread to give to them." F.very man in the courtroom, Graybeard and thoughtless youth, Knew, as they looked upon her, That the prisoner spoke the truth, Out from their pockets came kerchiefs, And out from their eyes came tears, And out from old faded wallets Treasure's hoarded for years. The judge's face was a study. The strangest you ever saw, And he cleared his ilu o.ii and murmured Something about the law. Tor one so learned in such mailers, So wise in dealing wuh men, I le seemed on a simple ttiesiion Sorely puz.led just then. But no one blamed him or wondered, When al length these words were heard : "The sentence of ihis young prisoner Is for the present deferred." And no one blamed him or wondered When he went to her and smiled, And tenderly led from the courtroom, Himself the guiliy child. OUT OF IT ALL. Something will come to us out of it all, Something will come, though the shadows fall, To cheer and comlort and bring us hope; Something will come though we seem to grope Aimlessly round in the whirl of things -To lift us out of (he doubt on wings Of hope and courage and strength and might Something will lead us along to light! Something will come to us in good lime, Something of music and mirth and chime To pay for this pitiful, day by day Plodding and suffering sort of a way; Blinded travelers somewhere cast Between two peaks of To Come and Past; Something will come to us after awhile To heal with its everlasting smile ! Something will come to us out of this dream Of bolt and mallet and roar and steam; Hurly-burly, and up and down Myriad millions, threading the town As bees the pastures, to" starve or fly, To mount to the summits, or fall and die; Something will come in ihe end, no doubt, To prove that He knows what it's all about ! Something will come to us whither we crawl, Baffled and beaten and blind and dumb -Something more sweet than the dark will come, Something so beautiful tine and true, We don't know wh it in the world to do Willi ihe rolling Hood id its joy and sweet And its bloom and us beauiv around our feel !

Why sweat and stew, risk your heart, while all around you stand the Inevitables, biding their lime ! The Inevitables surround my life as the mountains are around about the valley. Over every man is some sword of Damocles. Death is the king of the Inevitables. Somewhere he stands waning; "I wonder the day of the year; "I wonder the hour of the day." ; Nature is inevitable.
