The Sin of Frett;aC.

There is one sin which it seems to me
is everywhere by everybody under-esti-
mated, tolerated with undue tolerance,
and quite too much overlooked in our
valuations of character. 1t is the sin of
fretting. 1t is as common as air, as uni
.versal as speech $50 commons that unless
it rises aboveits usual monotone we'do
not even observe it. Watch any ordinary
coming together of people, and see how
many minutes it will be before somebody
frets-that Is, makes more or less COM
planning statement Of something Or 9TH
err which, most probably, every one in
the room, or stage, or the car, or the
street corner. as it may be, knew before,
and which, most probably. nobody can
help. Why say anything about it? It is
cold, it is hot, it is wet, it is dry; some
body has broken an appointment, ill
cooked q meal; stupidity or bad faith
somewhere has resulted i'm discomfort.
There are always plenty Of things to fret
about. The days will always have more
or less bad weather, Or.weather incOn-
venient to somebody's fixed plan. All
men 90 astray, speaking lies and making
blunders, as soon as they are born. 1t is
simply astonishing how much annoy
ance and discomfort may be found in the
course Of every days living, even at the
simplest, if one only keeps sharp eye
out on that side of things. Even Holy
Writ says we are born to trouble as the
sparks fly upward. But even to the
sparks flying upward in the blacklist of
smoke, there is blue sky above, and the
less time they waste on the road the soon
er they will reach it. Fretting is all
time wasted on the road.-Helen Hunt.

,Ir Is almost cruel TO disreoard a little

IT is almost cruel to disregard little
child's desire to crafty its natural and
innocent curiosity. Expense is often the
wretched reason given for the refusal.
Necessity for economy must frequently
forcea decisive mo" from parents lips;
but painful denials come sometimes from
a thOughtless mood, from an unsympa-
thizing temper, just at the moment the
request was made. / know a man whose
father 80 years ago refused,him ten cents,
when he was five years old.and to-day he
wildly recalls the bitter disappointment
which he endured in not seeing the ele.
plant which was on exhibition in his
native village. And it was so unlike his
father to deprive him of such pleasure!
He was kind and generous man: how
did it happen that the little golden-hair
ed boy went off from his fathers side
with his blue eyes full of tears? 1t is all
so distinct to his memory that he recalls
the busy and troubled look his father had
at the time land the strange carelessness
with which he listened to his request for
ten cents. Yet the man was in one of
those moods when friend or child could
be dismissed to endure unnecessary pain.
1t is easy to hurt tender spirits in our
rough way. Sometimes a child knows,
when his father says, II can't afford it,"
that it is not true; the assertion is only
intended for an excuse. The example
may bear its fruit some day in the false
excuses which the boy inyents.- Chris

A Woman.s Work.

A writerin the Cincinnati Commercia,
says: "rhere never was a time when
wOman's work, the fine, strong and in
spring kind. was worse needed in the
world than tits now. And, as Il rule in
nearly all, the kinds of work which
women do. the single woman can do
more and better work thai the married
one. 1t is stubborn fact which there
is no gainsaying. There is, after all, a
grain of solid common sense in the old
Roman Catholic notion of nuns and I'M
married workers. If freedom. culture,
an independent competence and life of
heroic usefulness are worth anything,
then let the single woman of to-day con-
sole herself.f Is sEf
From the beginning of time until now
the greatest of workers OH earth have
been those who intellectually and NOR
ally blended most completely the nature
of man and woman, and those few fine,
rare, glorious spirits shine upon the
world as often Jill one sex rs the other.

How to Dress so,. a -Photccraph.


10 the many who are puzzled how to
dress and what <colors tO2ehooses for a
Photograph, the following suggestions
will be valuable Orange color is for
certain optical reasons geographically
black. Blue is white, and other shades
or tones of color are propOrtiOnately
darker or lighter. rs they contain more
or less of these colors The progressive
scale of Photographic color commences
with the lightest The order stands
thus: White, light blue, violet, pink,
ma,,ve. slrab, aark Blue, lemon, blue
green, leather brown, cerise, magenta,
yellow-g green, purple, red amber, orange,
dead black. Complexion has much to
be considered in connection with the
dress. Blondes can wear much lighter
colors than brpnettes;i thea liter always
present better pictures III dark dresses,
but neither look well in pure white.
Violent contrasts of color should be
especially guarded against. In photo
g-s9lny brunettes possess asgreat aelyan-
tige over their faifer sisters. THE lovely
golden treSses lose all their brilliancy,
and are represented black: while the
''bonnie blue eye," theme of rapture to
the poet. is misery to the photographer,
for it is entirely put out. The simplest
and most affective way of removing the
yellow color from the hair is to powder
it nearly white it is thus brought to
about the same Photographic tint as in
nature. The same rule, of course, applies
to compilations. A freckle, quite invisi-
Bile at a short distance on account of its
yellow color, becomes most painfully dis
tinct when photographed. The powder
box must be called in to the assistance of
art. Here is an opportunity to obtrude
word of general advice. Blue, as has
been said, is the most readily affected by
light, and yellow the least. Therefore,
any one DESTROYS of keeping the complex
ion free from tan and frecHles should on
going out into the sunshine, discard the
customary blue veil and substitute a
green or yellow one instead. Blue gauze
offers no more obstruction to the rays of
the,sun than white. Half yard Of yell
low net, though not very becoming, will
be found more efficacious than any amount
of cosmetics. The cause Of freckles is
simple enough. 1t is nothing more than
heydarkening of the salts of iron con-
tanned in the blood blythe action of light
A freckled face is thus sort of animated
photograph.

An unfortunate man is he who can
only do one thing, especially if he has
otrlearned trade A gentleman who
could write five or six languages. but
who could do nothing else, found it i'm
possible to obtain employment during a
long, cold winter. Another man preached
for 25 years, until his throat failed him,
and he used to go round looking very,
very blue and sad, until people pitied
him and got up donation parties for him,
because he was good for nothing except
to preach. A lady taught school for 20
years, until she was a poor, nervous,
broken-dOwn woman, and didn't know
how to make dress for herself. Now,
boys and girls, every real man should
know how to do one thing right and
well. Every wise farmer has princi-
pal crop; but he has always little
something else to live on. Don't carry
all your eggs in, one, basket. Don't put
all your money i'm one lpocket. If you
want to get along right we'll. learn one
sort of work to get along by, and other
sorts of work to get living with when
your one sort gives out.
