bad wishes might ,be, blown into, the air,
bad blood spent, and thus all the care
and trouble, expended would be thrown
away. 1t is a good plan to keep in mind,
and, in a certain fashion celebrate the
anniversaries Of ofpartichlar. griefs, losses,
Insults or injuries. + If necessary, make
entries in your diary to and your memo
rE, for some, people are absurdly loose
on this head, and when, they grant a
pardon forget the offence, as we'll as the
cause and date. Even if you forgive a
wrong you are not bound to forget it, or
to refrain from referring to il when so
inclined, adding the fact of the pardon
accorded as an extra shaft of pain. Re-
pining and hahitual discomfort are less
unamiable,. but still very serviceable
qualities. They should be steadily in
dulged, constantly, fed, and the causes
must be often silently reviewed and
dwelt on, so that nothing may be over
looked or forgotten. This group, i. e.
envy. yindictiveness, repining, and dis
content in general, have this clear ad-
vantage: by cultivating them you not
only create your own special atmosphere
of neutral tint or India ink, but you
positively obtain a solid rest and full

peculiar, power of c0rrOsion. They eat

spread their roots, and so on, as GER

NATIONAL HOLIDAYS.

TO the student of history, the rise and
fall of commemorative observanceS is
very suggestive. Festal days are rooted
in the necessities of every people. Not
merely as relaxations from toll as pleas
ure seasons, bl eaking the monotony of
care; but as. expressions of those feel
ings which rise above the selfish instinct
they are valuable to all true national
life. They cannot be made-they grow.
When they have done growing, they
remain for while fair, but fragile, and
touched with an inward dropping. Then
they die, and remain as mere dead
stalks, garlanded with wretched rem
nants of persisted blossoms, clinging to
them here and there.
There is strong tendency to keep up
usages long after the meaning has gone
out of them. The everyday language
of men is vast cemetery of dead beliefs
in which the words stand as gravestones
with inscriptions which only the antiqu
ary can decipher. The days of the week
are known by names of which not one
in ten is aware of the sense, or even has
heard of Odin and Tho and Frega. So
it fares with many public observances.
The events they commemorate are for
gotten, because newer things have taken
| their places. For 4 season the Fourth of
July was IA very great national holiday.
| While there were Il few veterans of the
revolution to be paraded upon the plat
form, while the thought of the great
crisis in American history was fresh
there was life in the annual reading OF
the Declaration of Independence, and
the annual platitudes of the aspiring or.
ator. But no spent rocket or exploded
Chinese cracker could be more forlorn
and wearisome than these ceremonies
now. 1t is because there Is less of patri
otic feeling than fifty years ago? No
in the least; but the issue which thei
called it forth has long since passed
away. There is no outward look in the
observance; itpoints to no future. Nay
more, the issue then present ed-th'
struggle between loyalty and liberty-is
one which no one can wish to see RAISED
again. England's peers might as wei
assemble at an annual dinner to com
memorate the Day of Runymede, Il
the Americans to strive to keep up TIL
feelings which separated the thirteel
colonies from the mother country. !

OUR HOMES.

There exists a very beautiful ideal of
what home should be, but somehow men
and women have fallen into the habit of
showing the world their best side; of
exerting themselves to be amiable and
agreeable to the people who care least
for them while to those TO whom their
interest, honor and happiness are OF vi
tai concern they display all of their most
ilnho1y aud disagrecabic traits.
Some men use their homes as escape
valves for all the ill-humor generated by
friction with The world. 1t will not do
to storm and fume at that, but at home
ah, there one has a. right to do as We has
a mild to! 1t is his home, ana he is
bound to have his own way there, which
lie undoubtedly conld-only there hap
penf to be one or more others there in

way, this s'having' ones own way'' is a
very difficult thing in a world like this.
where every life is SO linked with every
other life.
| There are women, too, set down in the
calendar of the world us patterns oi

commentary upon the wisdom of the

STRENGTH IN ADvERs1TY

On thy Lord thy bnfden roll; .

Hath not Jesus said to thee,

Though thy prayer find no relief:
Bowed, forsaken, and forlorn,
Though thy sighs prevent the morn,
Tarrying long, he comes at length,
10 revive thy falling strength.
Though thy Saviour long forbear,
lie will hear his peoples prayer!
What though He, when sorrowlng. sought
Make rs though he heard thee not?
Watch, and without ceasing pray,
That thy strength be as thy day.
When temptation cometh in,
With surging flood of sin,
And the burning billOwS swell
From the lowest depths of he'll;
q my Saviour! say to me,
"As thy day, thy strength shall be!''
Some, listrustful of their Lord,
Fear to lean upon his word;
One day, bv the hand of Saul.
They were fearful they should fall,
Still that word is sweet to me,
"As thy day, thy strength shall be-
What though his approach be late?
1t Is good on God to wait:
He Will prove his promise true,
BY his gifts. not small, norfew,
His salvation thou shalt see,
As thy day, thy strength shall be-"
When wild winds thy vessel sweep
O'er the dreary, boisterous deep,
And thy prostrate strength shall fail.
AS the drivers before the gale,
Then cry nightly and say,
'tLet my strength he as my day!''
Dark may be the midnight honr,
With Deaths shadow creeping DER.
Yet. how drear soccer The night.

DOst thou sit alone and weep,
Doth thy heart sad yigils keep?
Weeping may endure night.
Joy will come with morning light.
AS Thy people once were fed
. With the heaven descended bread,
Feed me thus in righteousness
IN life's howling wilderness;

Let my strength be as thy day.

EXPLOSION Or Giant Powder.

The Marquette Mining Journal con.
tains the following account of fatal
accident at the Republic Nine: "About
5 o'clock on the morning of the 10th
Albert Andrews and John Jenkins,
Cornishmen and miners at the
Republic, went into the LACK
smith shop to warm up some
giant powder preparatory to blasting
at 6 o'clock The powder, five half
poun6 cartridges of No. 2 was placed
in the hot ashes for few minutes,
and when Albert Andrew went to
take it out, it had became so hot
that the pressure of his hand
upon it exploded to whole
amount. Andrews left hand was blown
off, and the shock tore the brain loose
from its coverings, producing conges-
tion of the brain. He lived but few
minutes. Jenkins was somewhat hurt
about the eyes, but is now about.
Richard Sanders, q blacksmith,
WIS thrown some distance but
not hurt. No others were in
he shop. The forge on whic |,
the powder was lying waa entirely de.
stroyed, and the building itself, not
witAstnnding it is large and airy, was
considerably shaken and torn, md the
windows all shattered. MIR. Andrews
was taken to Ishpeming for burial"

Another Of the Mysteries OF Paris.

"A mysterious crime has Just been
discovered. About ten days ago cab
driver, named Jacques Drouet, came in
with his vehicle, and reported that he
had been stopped by a woman, who
told him to drive her to the bridge of
Asnieres. On arriving, the woman got
out, and sad that she had no money to
pay her fare, but begged him to take
her gold watch and chain, and she,
having his number, would come and
redeem them. He did SO, and showed
the watch and chain. But soon after
he lett the service, in spite of the ex-
postulatjons of his employer, and has
not been seen since. A day or two ago
the body Of woman, young and eie-
gantly dressed, was found in the Seine,
and in her dress pocket was the num-
Der of this cabman. There was no
money or valuables. jacques Drouet
has been traced to Belgium by the po-
lice, but, if caught, it will not be easy,
perhaps, to convict him of the crime,

that the woman committed, suicide.

Dress Plainly.

Some one has given the following
reasona why people should dress plain
ly on Sunday. These reasons are at
valid any other day in the week
1t would lessen the burden of many
who now find it hard to maintain
their place in society.
1t would lessen the force of tempta
tions which often lead men to barte,
honesty and honor for display.
If there was less strife in dress al
church people in moderate circum.
stances would be more inclined to at
tend.
Universal moderation in dress al
church would improve the worship by
the removal of many wandering
thoughts.
1t would enable all classes of people
to attend church in unfavorable
weather.
It would lessen, on the part of the
rich, the temptation to vanity.
It would lessen, on the part of the
poor, the temptation to be envious and
malicious.
1t would save valuable time on the
Sabbath.
1t would relieve our means from Sc
rious pressure, and thus enable us tc
do more for good enterprises.

The 81. Louis Bridge.

The commission Of engineers ap-
pointed by the War Department some
time ago to examine and ascertain
whether the bridge now in process of
construction across the Mississippi
River at St. Louis will. when finished,
obstruct navigation, made IN elaborate
report, which has been published.
They find that the bridge, as at pres
ent designed, will prove serious OBJ
struction to navigation, and, as it is
impracticable to change the plans OF
the bridge or to raise it except at an
enormous cost, they recommend a
canal or open cut behind the eastern
abutment of the bridge, l2O feet wide,
extending from point 800 feet above
the bridge to 800 feet below it, with a
draw of the same width. They also
recommend that arch :russes like those
of this bridge BE in future prohibited
in plans for bridges over navigable
streams.
