' The Wind. He's a trumpeter In winter, And oh. how loud be peals! The yellow moon grows white and faint When after her he steals; Evens the forests deep and still Ring with bis music wild and shrill. He scares away all sturdy wings. The sparrows and the crows'; He shouts about the village doors Through ail the flying snows; He rouses the white, sleeping forms. And leads the wild dance of the storms. Id spring he drops his trumpet And plays a violin; And oh, how sweet his cadences. When sunny mists and thin brood o'er the hills and make day dim, And silvery bluebirds answer him! And weird and strange its music Is When night-rains sob and fret, And willows whisper witches' tales Down; in the marshes wet, And frogs, those minstrels most grotesque, Blend with his strains their wild burlesque. And then for summer's ear he pipes A flute as soft as sleep, Like the sweet syllables of bees Within the beam-flowers deep, But quickened to a waltz when show ers Beat suddenly upon the flowers. He blows to listening woodlands; He trills to fluttering corn; He plays to voices of the larks In the sweet flush of morn; And then within the grasses tall He sleeps, and lets the light flute fall.

A fault-finding, criticizing habit Is fatal to all excellence. Nothing will strangle growth quicker than a tend ency to hunt for flaws, to rejoice in the unlovely, like a hog, which al ways has his nose in the mud and rarely looks up. The direction in which we look Indicates the life aim, and people who are always looking for something to criticize, for the crooked and the ugly, who are al ways suspicious, who invariably look at the worst side of others, are but giving the world a picture of them selves. This disposition to see the worst Instead of the best grows on one very rapidly, until it ultimately strangles all that is beautiful and crushes out all that is good in himself. No mat ter how many times your confidence has been betrayed, do not allow your self to sour, do not lose your faith in people. The bad are the exception; most people are honest and true and mean to do what is right. Success. "Human flight Is a new physical and mental experience, and Its sensa tions and emotions are so unlike or are so much more intense than what Is felt on the earth's surface that go ing up In an airship for any length I sitting safe In nursery nooks. time Is really living in anotner woria. i Reading picture story books? We have all been so busy trying 10 fly and trying to imagine what ef fects flight will have upon life upon the earth, that we have failed to rec ord the effects of flight on those who fly." Capt. Thomas W. Baldwin, writes David F. St. Clair, In Harper's Week ly, whose dirigible balloon has been purchased by the United States Gov ernment for military purposes, pro nounces this opinion of the sensa tions of flying. Captain Baldwin has spent more than twenty years on the problem of aerial navigation, and during that period has made a hun dred ascensions and voyages In the unchartered realm of the air. The first experience of flight," CaDtain Baldwin continued, "is the most wracking mental and physical tension. Indeed, going into battle, facing a storm at sea, or struggling with a fire, does not equal It for try ing the nerves. There are, of course, situations of suspense when the ele ment of fear will more unman one than that felt during the first mo ments of flight by a beginner; but nowhere else is such Intense alert ness demanded, and nowhere else does one seem so helpless against a fatal accident. This feeling will be shared by every one on his first voy age in an airship. "But the reaction on the nerves of the aeronaut when he perceives that his machine is working and that he is not only actually flying, but con trolling his own flight, is simply in describable. Some of us know what the feelings of mastery is In driving an automobile seventy-five miles per hour on a smooth, clear road, or what It Is to drive a locomotive en gine at a like speed. Multiply this feeling by a hundredfold, and one may get a faint conception of what the guiding and driving of an air-car through space means. The sense of physical, mechanical, and mental mastery over one's machine, over! chills. 25c. at all druggists one's environment, and over one's self is so complete, so buoyant, exhlliaratlng, exalted, that one feels more fearless than he ever did with his feet on the firm earth. Indeed, one is in another and a higher world mentally as well as physically. One feels that a great weight has been lifted from his shoulders. His body is stronger, his mind Is infinitely clearer. He sees himself riding up on a sunbeam or a starbeam; there flashes across his vision the snow- flake or the raindrop In its helpless fall; by him passes the cloud at the mercy of the wind, and on the crest of the storm he walks as a god upon the waters." -Robert Louis' Stevenson. , How She Got Even. A certain lawyer, famed for high charges, had Incurred the enmity of an old lady, on account of the same. Wishing to get even with him, she consulted him about drafting her wIlL As she was a very wealthy old lady without near relatives, she had many charitable associations to ben-j efit, and the accurate draft of the will required much patience, skill and time. Among the provisions she made a generous bequest to this lawyer and nominated him executor. After the execution of the will, she called for her bill, whereupon the lawyer, with the vision of ample fees In the prospective settlement of the estate, and the memory of the gen erous bequest, told the old lady that under the circumstances he should charge nothing, but finally, to satisfy her business scruples, made out a re ceipt in full to date for one dollar, whereas the smallest sum he could have properly charged would have been one hundred dollars. The old lady marched home with her will, set herself to work, copied it out carefully word for word, leav ing out the bequest to the lawyer and nominating a new executor. In the course of time she died, and the disgust of the lawyer at the con tents of the will was so great that he inadvertently let out the secret, to the huge delight of his brother lawyers.

Meyer's biographer tells this story apropos of his early ambition to be a preacher: While he was still a child he long ed so earnestly for some certainty that this might be God's will for him mat one evening, unknown to any one, he carried out to his own little liot, in a far corner of his father's large garden, a piece of cotton-wool, which he spread on the ground and left out all night, praying, with a childish application of the story of National Customs. When Sir Charles Napier was ex ercising military rule in India, he showed extraordinary skill as an ad ministrator. He availed himself as much as possible of the framework of a government previously existing, and used a wonderful tact in answer ing the Hindu mind according to its own form of thought. "Make no avoidable change in the ancient laws and customs," he said to his subordinates. "The conquest of a country is sufficient convulsion A Boston firm recently offered a prize for the best definition of what constituted success. A Kansas wo man was awarded the prize, and this was her answer: "He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of lit tle children; who has filled his niche, has accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose money a benediction."
