The other day, says NJ. Quad, a man

one passing along here could have dropped
such a bill, but it seems more reasonable to
think that the money was lost by you."
"Don't talk quite so lond,' she said as
she leaned over the stand. GU are an
honest man, and IN have your name put in
the papers so that. all may know it, I'm a
hardworkiRg widow, and if you hadn't
brought back that money it would have
gone hard with my poor little children?"

OF the stools.
"That's right-that's honest" she Ehis
rered. "Draw right up here and have some

He needed no second invitation. The
way he went for cold ham, fried sausage,
biscuit and coffee was terrific to the woman.

Good Morning.

Don't forget to say good morning.
Say it to your parents, your brothers and
sisters, TO your children, or your fellow
workrnen; and say it cheerfully and with a
smile; it will do You good, and your
friends good There is kind of an in
lily and smilingy spoken, that helps to
make hope fresher and work lighter. 1t
seems, really see ms to make the morning
good, and to be prophecy Of good day
TO come after it. And is this be true of
the good mornings" it is SO also of all
kind, heartsome greetings. They cheer
the discouraged, rest tee tired one, and
make the wheels f fe run more

He who frets is never the one who
mends, heals, who repairs evils; more,
he discourages, enfeebles, and too often
disables those around him, who. but
for the gloom and depression of his
company, would do good work'and keep
up brave cheer. And when the frettet
is one who is beloved, whose nearne.s ef
relation to US makes his frettng, even
at the weather, seem alnost like a per-
sonal reproach to u, then the misery
of it becomes indeedu nsupportabie. Most
men call fretting a minor fault, fol-
Bile, and not vice. There is nothing
except drunkness which can so utterly
destroy the peace, the happiness Of
a home. Helen Hun'.

The marble WAS pure and white
Though only block at best,
But the artist with inward sight,
Looked further than all the rest,
And saw in the hard rough stone
The loveliest statue the sun shone on,
So he set TO work with care
And chiseed a form of grace
A figure diyinely fair;
With a tender, beautiful face
But the blows were hard and fast
That brought from the marble that work'at last
So think that human lives
Must bear Gods chissl keen,
If the spirit yearns and strives
For the better life unseen.
For men are only blocks at hest.
Till the chiselins brings ont all the rest.
