CAN ANY NAvY-YARDs BE DISPENSED WITH?
WASHINGTON, August ga naval board
is to be appointed under the provisions OF
the naval appropriation bill to examine and
report whether, in their opinion, any navy

Obscure Men Happiest in WedIock.

No WOMAN will love a man the better
for being orprominent. Though
he be the first among men, she will be
prouder, not fonder; as is often the case,
she will not even be proud. But give her
love, appreciation, kindness, and there is
no sacrifice she would not make for his
cont Mt and comfort. The man who loves
her we'll is her hero and her king No
less u hero TO her, though he is not 20 any
other; no less a king, though his only
kingdom is her heart and home. 1t is a
mans own fault if he is unhappy with his
wife, in nine cases out Of ten. II is
very exceptional woman who will not be
all she can be to an attentive husband,
and a very exceptional one who will not
be very disagreeable if she finds herself
wilfullv neglected. 1t would be easy to
hate man who, having bound woman
to him, made no effort to- make her happy;
hard not to love one who is constant and
tender, and when woman loves. she al
ways strives to please. The great men of
this world have always been wretched in
common men have been exceedingly
happy. The reason is very plain. Alb
sorbed in themselves those who desire the
worlds applause were careless of the
little world at home, while those who had
none of this egotism strove to keep the
hearts that were their own and were happy
in their tenderness.-A Baptist.

The narrow-gauge railroad within the
Exposition grounds is proving a great
success, carrying thousands of passengers
from place to place and building to build
ing, with commendable rapidity, for the
moderate sum of five cents each. A ride
OF twenty-five minutes will take the visi-

The University of Hard Knocks,

A GREAT deal of useless sympathy is in
this day expended upon those who start
oct in life without social or monetary
help. Those are most to be congratulated
who have at the beginning a rough tussle
with circumstances. John Ruskin sets it
down as one of his calamities that in early
life he had nothing to endure" A pet
ted and handled childhood makes weak
and insip.d man You say that Ruskin
just quoted disproves the theory. No
He is showing in detected, splenetic and
irritable OLD age the need of the early
cudgeling of adversely. He seems fret
