lhinrs To be Avoided.

There are many ways in which we can
annoy our friends without intending to
do so. A few of these are easily stated.
Never call upon people out of season.
in business hours Idle persons are apt
to have too little consideration for those
who are busy. Call upon business people
on business in business hours, but not tor
a long friendly chat on matters and things
in general. Call upon your neighbors in
their homes at such hours as they will be
prepared to receive you, and not before
they are down stairs in the morning, or
while they are at dinner, or just as they
are going to bed. Never stop people
upon the street if they appear to be in
a hurry, and buttonhole them for ten
or twenty minutes. Neither is it good
taste, when you see two persons engaged
in earnest talk, to step in and enter upon
miscellaneous conversation, A mans
ordinary instincts ought to know at once
when his company is desired and when
it is a nuisance. it is also a great i'm
pertinence to strike in with something
entirely foreign to the subject when one
is in the midst of 4 story or q statement,
or an argument, and to persist in talking
about "this, that and everything " to
one WHO is trying to read the morning
paper, or a book or anything else. When
ever a man is SO absorbed that he does
not care to reply to what you say, it is
time to stop talking. There are a legion
of other annoyances, equally trying
Carelessness in keeping appointments
keeping other people waiting your own
convenience coming in late to church
or the concerty or the lecture, and alwayI
in creaking boots; delay in answering
important letters; borrowing new book
from the owner before he has had time t.
read them, and returning the same at
late date, perhapsnever; scribbling foolisl
comments on the margin always de
pending upon a neighbor for a sight o
the daily or weekly paper when you ar
! as well able to pay for it as he is; learn
; ing to play on musical instruments i
; the full hearing of sensitive and nervou
people. But we may as well stop here
From your own experience you can con
: plete the list.

A BIT of Married EXnerienCe.

l married my wife about thirty-ive
years ago. The ceremony was performed
about seven o'clock in the morning. Be-
fore retiring that evening we had a good
talk with each other, and the result has
sweetened our entire lives. We agreed
that each should always be watchtul
and careful, never, by word or act to
hurt the feelings OF the other. We were
both young, hot-tempered, both positive
in our likes and dislikes, and both some-
what exacting and i~niexible-iust the
material for a life of coniugal warfare.
Well, fol a few years we found it hard
work to always live by our agreement.
Occasionally (not often) a word or look
would slip off the tongue or face before
it could be caught or suppressed but we
never allowed the sun to go down upon
our wrath. Before retiring at night on
such occasions there was always con-
fesAion and forgiveness, and the culprit
would become more careful in future,
Our tempers and dispositions became
gradually more c%oDgenial, 50 that after
a few years we cam to be one in reality.
az the martial ceremony had pronounce
us nomiually. In thinking back we fine
that Tor more than twenty years oui
little agreement has been unbroken, anc
there has been no occasion for confession
and forgiveness. In business we hav'
had adversely and prosperity, failure an(
success. We raised a family of childrel
about US, and we are simple enough t.
believe that we have better children, an'
better grandchildren because Of our littl
agreement. Under such contract rel
giousIy kept, no ill-natured children wi
Lie reared. and no boys will find tn

Mineral Wealth of Montana.

tul ard well behaved and feel very friend
" toward the whites. A prominent otd.
Ger predicts that if the territory Is free
from Indian troubles for three years, it
will make wonderful progress and rank
in its resources and promise for the future
among the first OF the territories. Every
day the mining resources OF the territory
are found to be still more wonderful.
Authentic accounts from men who have
seen the mines are, in many respects, more
wonderful than the fictitious ideas told
of this and some other mining regions.A
o . man secured possession not long
since of q small undeveioped mine about
seven miles from Helena, Although
called a mine it consisted simply of a hole
in the ground about ten feet square on
the surface and now about 10 feet deep.
During the month of March the mine
yielded its owner q profit OF S15, OO0, and
at the present time has averaged $4,000
per day. This immense yield of gold was
obtained by the most primitive means,
the metal being found in rotten, quartz,
which was dotted and spangled with it,in
a free state. The implements with which
the gold wa obtained were simply a lot
of heavy stones, with which it wac
pounded out of the quartz, Other mines
have been discovered almost equally
rich, the gold existing in Il free state in
rotten quartz, which is readily crushed.
Specimens of the ore have been brought
to Omaha and exhibited here. Montans
is making equally rapid progress in it
agricultural interests. The country i
filling up with great herds of cattle anC
sheep, and several new ranges have beer
recently located there by cattle men
There is an immense amount of valuable
product of different kinds destined tt
come out of Montana, and the merchant
OF Omaha should secure their share of tn
business. 1t is worth looking after
