GOOD
A Father of a young son is in a
very responsible position and many
such person Hnds thin with the ad
dition or a son to his family he
needs must change his habits.
Such an cne I recently met, once
he was an inveterute smoker and
occasionally an oath came out even
when things were going fairly
well. I found him at this lime en
tirely changed, smoking and swear
ing entirely gone and a demeanor
of most refined elegance in place
of (he old manner. I remarked
on the change and was told the
following story :
"Well, you remember how
much a cigar meant to me, and
how I could not express myself
forcibly without a good 'damn,' it
just seemed necessary to me and I
could not break myself of the
smoking habit. One day I came
upon my young son. I stood where
he could not see me and watched
him. He had a make-believe ci
gar in his mouth and removed it
frequently to expectorate. His
hat lilted on his head, he was car
rying on a animated soliloquy in
which was frequently such words
'hell' and 'damn' and ii did not
take me more than half a minute
to decide he was imitating me and
I'll tell you I surely got a jolt. I
sneaked away and that night I
talked to him. "Son, when you
get grown what are you going to
do? What are you going to be?"
'I'm going to be just what my
daddy is. I'm going to be as like
him as 1 can," and so I decided I
had to make myself as worthy of
imitation as possible. Breaking
myself of smoking was harder
than I'd like to confess to that
five year-old chap and that was
easier than remembering not to
curse, but I've done those and
many other things too, and yet I
find it a pretty strenuous thing to
be a model for your own son."
NOT UNUSUAL.
Mitirj Sweetgirl wan engaged
to the curate, and took it upon
herself to look after him, aa all
nice women will.
He wua going off to officiate
at a funeral, and she stood at
th garden gate, seeing liim off.
"Take care of yourself, dear,"
aid she.
"Yes, yes 1 will," suid the
curate.
"Do," suid the girl, still anx
ious. "And remember: Don't
stand with your bare head on
tho (lamp ground."
If you have a horseshoe over
the door and it doesn't fall on your
head, you are lucky.

"THY WILL BE DONE,'J
If all fair lands would utterance give
To thoughts engendered by a theme so grave,
No need that human mind devise
Plans that all future strife would save.
The "conference" now on foreign shores
To promulgate a lasting peace,
Is all in vain, unless our Lord
Says "Peace be still!" Wars shall ceasel
Troubles heap themselves upon a world
When it ignores the All-wise God,
"History but repeats itself."
When we walk in ways our fathers trod.
We need to revolutionize a world
Not by sword, or gun, or human blood,
But by a "tidal wave" of righteousness
With which we would the whole world flood.
If nations which have felt God's hand
In recent horrors to the bitter core,
Would place their all at Jesus' feet
Such troubles would be felt no more.
God cannot, will not, never bows
To waywardness in any form,
And "would be" conceited conquerors,
Have always, down, before Him gone.
No usurper, with an evil heart
Might e'er expect a world to fall,
No one man power can e'er prevail
'Tis God alone, who can rule us all.
Thus in the bitter strife that swayed
A world in grief when millions fell,
The German king "reckoned without his host"
And for a scanty morsel (perhaps his soul did sell
No need to say, what duty is,
'Tis plainly seen from shore to shore,
Our own fair land is in ihe fight
We'll win for Christ forevermore.
Oh, make us humble, make us wise!
And grant oh God when victory's won
We may with loud acclaim, praise Him
Who answered to "Thy Will Be Done."

PUT "BAD LUCK" IN DISCARD.
When the (lame of Life Is Anal-
yzed. There la No Such Thing
To Bo Found.
There is no such thing as "bad
luck." The belief in it is a gross
superstition. It is claimed there is
a lot of luck in poker. My obser
vation has been ihat the man who
wins at poker consistently is merely
the best player ot poker. There
are some who have a "run of
luck." But if ths "run" lasts
three minutes the opposite "run"
generally lasts equally as long. If
the good luck holds up for a year,
the bad luck appears during the
next year. Any habitual card play
er, unless he is a very poor player
or an unusually good one, will fell
you that his winnings and losses
just about counterbalance.
In poker, as in life, the final de
termining factor is skill, knowledge
of the game, patience, taking ad
vantage of opportunities. If you
have a promonuion that you are
promising yourself disaster in ad
vance, you are merely saying to
yourself: "I'll fall down on it
sure." Dismiss the premonition
Throw away the "charms" and
talismans. Get on the job. James
Hay, Jr., in McClure's Magazine.

Cause of Headache.
Ily knowing the cause, a disease may
often be avoided. This is particularly
true of headache. The most common
cause of headache is a disordored stom
ach, or constipation, which may be cor
rected by taking a few doses of Cham
berlain's Tablets. Try it. Many others

Tii-hs is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, aud until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. Kor
a great many yeais doctors pronounced
it a local disease aud prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proveu Catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treat
ment. Hall'sl'aUrrli Medicine manufac
tured by F. J. Cheney A Co., Toledo,

The Tree. 1 think that I shall
never see a poem lovely as
a tree,
A tree whose hungry mouth is
prest against the earth's
sweet flowing breast.
A tree that looks at God all day
and lifts her leafy arms to
pray,
A tree that may in summer wear a
nest or robins in her hair.
Upon whose bosom snow has lain,
who intimately lives with
rain.
Poems are made by tools like me,
but only God can make
tree.
