Thoughts FOR Young Men.

The way to get along in the
world is to make every step one
that il ahead, and each to follow
its predecessor. Full fifty per
cent. of the effort in the world ii
absolutely wasted on indirect, diff
fuse, indefinite Iabofs. Young men
start outin life without purpose or
point, neither casting a thought on
their fitness or unftness for par
ticular calling; now doing this
thing, now that, and after thi l
nothing; one day going on, another
on the right Or left, tie next back
ward, and then not going at all;
which is, perhaps. as bad as the
whole combined. The straight line
il life is the one that leads straight
ahead This almost always ~
cures success.

HEALTH OF CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE

Chase will be glad to learn that the
report of his serious ill-health Is with

lily residing in Philadelphia has re-
ceived letter dated Narragansett, Sep
TENDER /, which says: "The physician
in order to secure perfect quiet for him
(the Chief Justice) advised HIM to visit
Narragansett, and he is now recover
ing very rapidly. He does not con-
slider himself an invalid, and sc regret
very much that now he is almost well
any one should represent his condi-
ton as being so serious" The tele-
graph also informs us that the intellig-
ence of the Chief Justices illness was
entirely new to his family until they
learned it from the absurd rumOrs
above referred to- Phila. Inquirer.
