IL will always be nice and difficult
question to decide who are the most dis
agreeable people to live with. Our first
thoughts will be directed TO the more
ugly and yenomous passions, such rs
hatred, envy, jealousy and the like. II
will probably be found, however, that
those qualities which come under the
head of foibles rather than of vices rem
der people most intolerable as compan-
ions and coadjutors. For example, il
may be observed that those people have
more worn, jaded and dispiritcd look
than any Others, who have 70 live with
people who make difficulties on every
occasion, great or small. II is astonish-
ing 10 see how this practice Of making
difficulties grows into confirmed habit
Of mind, and what disheartcnment II oc-
casions. The SAVIOR Of life Is taken out Of
il when you know that nothing you pro-
pose or do or suggest, hope for Or en-
deavor, will meet with any response but
an enumeration Of the difficulties
that will lie in the path you wish 10
travel. The difficulty -monger i 70 be
met with not only in domestic and social
life, but also in business. II not unfre-
quently occurs in business relations that
the chief will never by any chance re-
ceive, without many objections and
much bringing forward Of possible diff
cultics, any thing that Is brought 70 him
by his subordinates. They AZ last cease
to take pains, knowing that no amount
Of pains will prevent their work being
dealt with in a spirit Of ingenious OBJ
iectiyenegs. Al last they say 10 them
selves, \" The better the thing we present,
the more opportunity he will have for
developing his unpleasant talent q OBJ
jectivencss and his imaginative power Of
invcnting difficulties.

Instead Of asking the blessing on
sitting down at a table, family up
town have for years been following the
custom n repeating verses from the BIZ

mencing with the head of the family.
A few days since young man in the
family brought up to dinner with him a

word Of merriment. When they sat
down at the table the young friend was
placed next to the head of the family,
who began 70 worship BY repeating
/" The love of money Is the root Of all
evil" The friend took II that the re-

Summer Separation.

June is the month of love, joy, and Au-
gust that of its agony. In June two hearts
knit together and become one. In August
two bodies separate. She goes away to
see her mothers aunt in the country, and
he stays at home, working the treadmill
of duty. This comes hard on all men,
but its weight is the heaviest on the gro
Gerry clerk. His heart is not in his work.
How can it be9 Where the treasure is
there will the heart be also, and the treas
ure is far away. He cannot smile on the
customer. He cannot counterfeit sue
cessfully that expression of all-absorbing
interest which makes clerkship thing
of beauty. Certainly his is most criti-
cal task. The variety and diversity of
the articles in which he deals requires
that be should keep his wits about him.
In this particular he is in almost as much
danger as the drug clerk, while the op-
portunities for shipping are hundred
fold. A Danbury man who went to a
drug store to have a prescription pre-
pared, seeing nobody but clerk present,
said:
"Young man, are you keeping company
with girl9"
Eyes, sir" answered the clerk with a
blush.
''Do you think the world of herr"
~ do, said the clerk firmly, although
blushing considerably.
''Is she in town." pursued the customer
anxiously.
mo, sir; she is away on visit"
"That will do" said the man decisive
ly. "You can't fool around any prescrip-
ton for me-" And he went away.
But it is the grocery clerk who has to
struggle from early morn till late at
night with a flood Of annoyances. When
be dips into the sugar barrel he thinks of
her lips and signs. In cutting the cheese
he is reminded of the strength of his de.
votion to her, and when be looks into the
butter firkin his thoughts stray to her
hair. When he would 60 away by him
self and give expression to his emotions
he is obliged to help lift a barrel of
corned beet, or roll cask of salt or open
a cask of lard. 1t is only when he is
among the mackerel that he feels as if
he had companion in his sorrow, a
sympathizer in grief. There is that soft
ened, subdued light in the eye Of salt
mackerel which touches responsive
chord in the heart of suffering and awak-
ems it to plaintive melody. How tenderly
he lifts it from the kit; how lovingly he
fingers in wrapping it up. Poor fellow
He may put up washing starch for baking
powder, draw mOlasses in the kerosene
can, and even attempt to palm of various
things for tea. He may do this. 1t is
more than likely that he will. Blu, the
expression Of = mAckerel's eve will not
change. The soft, subdUed light Of syn
patty still remains. LaIsbEry -No<,

the vicious animal on which our boy was
mounted undertook to obtain relief and

A skil!ful leap, however, saved the lad,
and the next stage of our journey was on

and consequent rarity of the air by this
time began to tell on both horses and

ant" A halt was called and the party
collected; it was decided to leave the
horses. where we were, in charge of the
guide. and push on, on foot, with Ser
geaut Hobbs. as our leader. After short
distance, the boy began to show unmis-
taxable and dangerous signs of distress;
his face was livid, his sensation dull, and
fearing serious trouble, the guide was
perem ptorily ordered back with him to
the Lake House. Faintness and dizzi-
ness affected others of the party, and four
rods was the longest distance any could
walk without resting. One called halt
at every second telegraph pole, but
pluckily insisted that the others should
90 on and not wait for him. Had the
day been clear and the trail visible, the
discomfort and apparent danger would
have been much less; but with no trail
over and up the snow-felds, and a fog
limiting vision to two rods in either d.
