CHARACTER REVEALED.
The characier of the creature,
whether high or low, is revealed
in the things which satisfy him.
The bird and the beast are satisfied
with Food and shelter and kind
treatment Their wants can be
satisfied in the world of material
things; but when a man has all
his physical needs satisfied, when
he has enjoyed fond and raiment
and slither and the affection of his
friends and loved ones, there is
still within him a great hunger for
the things which are intellectual
and eternal He cannot idle con
tent until he has found God and
the hope of life eternal. It is the
hunger of the soul that proclaims
man's high lineage.
SPOILED HIS ' POEM."
The average printer considers
poetry a nuisance. Much so-called
poetry is all of that and worse. It
takes longer to set verse than
straight prose and there are more
chances for errors. A newspaper
versifier recently wrote a few
stanzas about his little son, the first
one beginning with the line, "My
son! my pigmy counterpart !" It
appeared in the paper, "My son,
my pig, my counterpart," and the
poet was mad about it.
THE CONVENTIONAL THINU.
Romantic youth "Why do you
hesitate, darling? We could easily
run away and gel married."
His Fancy "My dear boy,
you're too impossible! Why, the
only photographs 1 could leave be
hind me were taken before I had
my hair bobbed!"
A BOAT-ROCKER.
"Only a fool rocks the boat."
"1 suppose so," assented Mr.
Growcher. "But when the boal
contains a couple of guitars and an
off-the-key tenor, there comes
terrible temptation."

PRACTICE MAKES IMPERHECT
"What crime did you commit to

visitor.
"I guess it must have been be
cause I attended too many wed-
dines."
"I see ! You stole the gifts or
drank too much champagne?"
"No. it was just because I was
always the bridegroom," answered
the arch-bigamist.
NOT WORTH TRYING.
AT THE CROSS-ROADS
. "This road and that road neither one 1 know I
Which way is the true way that my feet should gc?"
Answered he, the old man, dreaming by the way,
"Blind the road of life is; bide a while and pray !"
"This way or that way down each road 1 see
Silent hills before me, vales of mystery !"
Murmured he, the graybeard, in a musing tone,
"O'er the hills and far away, go not, lass, alone."
"This way or that way one may lead to tears;
One to joy and laughter all the happy years I"
Answered he, the old man, smiling tenderly,
"Wait until adown the road Love shall beckon thee !"

B FOR YOUR BLOOD 1
Tipe Why not try a home
brew receipt ?
Taps -It's this way. If I met a
friend, under the influence of the
forbidden, I'm afraid he isn't able
to give the receipt correctly, and
when 1 meet a man who has had a
few drinks and doesn't feel any
happier. I ll be darned if I want
the receipt.
