"A GRKAT DAY."
"Great morning, isn't it?" called a
cheery business man to a passer-by
as he hurried down the steps of his
home to catch a train.
"Why, so It is," thought the man
hailed, looking up in surprise from
his moody contemplation of the side
walk. And unconsciously he straight
ened hl3 shoulders and stepped out
more briskly as he went on his way.
"Great morning, isn't it?" said the
business man to a bootblack as he
stopped for a shine. And the urchin
gave a vigrous polish to a spot on
the heel he had been minded to leave
unshined and whistled as he went his
way.
"Great day, isn't it," said the man
to the stenographer as he entered his
office. And the girl's fingers flew
faster and the keys clicked merrily
and the tired eyes smiled as she
worked that day.
"It has been a great day," said the
man to his wife as, business over,
he sank with a sigh of comfort Into
the easy chair at home.
And the recording angel, closing
the account of that man's day, smiled
and echoed softly, "A great day."

"THE SUN WILIi SHINE AGAIN."
By William T. McElroy.
A little newsboy, clad only in rags
and not many of those, stood on the
street corner one chilly morning. The
morning was a gloomy and rainy one,
and the newsboy was barefooted. Now
and then he had to lift up one fopt
or the other and place it against his
other leg to try to get a little warmth.
But his shout as he called the morn
ing' papers was cheery and shrill.
A gontleman, well clad in a heavy
overcoat and protected further by a
large umbrella, stopped to buy a pa
per. He noticed the poor clothing of
the little fellow at once. "This kind
of weather is pretty hard on you, my
lad," he said pleasantly.
"I don't mind it so much," said the
newsboy, looking up with r a smile.
"The sun will shine again after
a while."
The gentleman passed on. But the
more he thought of the boy's words
the' more they impressed themselves
upon him. In a few days the little
newsboy went into his office as office
boy. He is now a Junior partner. It
was his expression, "The sun will
shine again," that had gotten him his
place and that brought him success.
His thought was a good one. No
matter how gloomy or uncomfortable
the day was, he was sure that the
pleasant, sunshiny day would come.
All were silent and he began with
the first boy and thrashed everyone
in the class until finally he reached
the last one. Then he said: "Now,
if you will tell me who did this I
won't thrash you."
"All right, sir, I did it," was the
reply. Ideas.
Politics Killed Him.
A politician who was making a
house-to-house canvass came to a
farm-house, when he observed an el
derly woman standing at the gate,
and the candidate gracefully lifted
hiav hat and politely asked: "No
doubt, my dear madam, your hus
band is at home?"
"Yes," responded the woman.
"Might I have the pleasure of see
ing him?" inquired the politician.
"He's down in the pasture a-bury
ing the dog," was the reply from the
individual at the gate.
"Lam very sorry, indeed, to learn
of the death of your dog," came in
sympathizing tone from the candi
date. "What killed him?"
"He wore hisself out a-barklng at
the candidates," said the woman.
