NEVER FORGEr ANrTHTSG.-Charge
your mind with your duty. That is
largely the true definition OF faithful
ness. bad memory and mistakes are
used as apologies a great deal oftener
than necessary. a boy beginning
business life viii generally lose his
place who pleads such an excuse more
than Onc or twice. A successful bus
iness man says there were two things
which he learned when he was eighteen,
which was afterwards of great benefit
to him, namely, ''never TO lose any
thing, and never 10 forget anything"
An old lawyer sent with him an i'm
portant paper, with certain instructions
what To do with it. But" inquired
the young man, "suppose | lose it;
what shall ! do them" The answer
waS with the utmost emphasis, lyon
must not lose i'll | shall make no such
provision for any such occurrence.
You must not lose it ]" This put a
new train of thought into the young
mans mind, and he found if he was
determined to do a thing he could do
it. lie made such provision against
ever contingency that he never lost
anything. lie found this equally true
about forgetting. If a certain matter
of importance was to be remembered,
he pinned it down on his mind, fasten-
ed it there and made it stay.

WEAR FLANNEL.-Put it on at once.
Winter or summer, nothing better can
be worn next the skin than a loose,
red, WOODEN shirt "loose," for it has
room to move on the skin, this causing
a titillatian which draws the blood TO
the surface and keeps it there, and,
when that is the case, no one can take
cold ; "red," for white flannel fulls up,
mats together and becomes tight, stiff,
heavy and impervious ~"woolcn," the
product of a sheep, not of cotton
wool, because that merely absorbs the
moisture from the surface, while wool
en- flannel conveys it from the skin
and deposits it in drops on the outside
Of the shirt, from which the ordinary
cotton shirt absorbs it, and, by its
nearer exposure TO the exterior air, it
is soon dried without injury to the
body. Having these properties, red
wooden flannel is worn by sailors even
in the midsummer of the hottest coun-
tries. Wear a thinner material in
summer.-HaPs Journal of Health.
