Be Independent.

There is nothing in the wide world
that ensures success so completely as
does perfect independence. People
who are always waiting for help may
wait long time, as general thing.
A little assistance, little influence,
is not to be had for asking but there
is always something one can do for
himself. Do it, whatever it is, with
a will. One thing leads to another.
IF a young lady, don't sit still and
hope a rich man will marry you,
while your aged father tolls for your
daily bread. Learn how to help
yourself, and take care of yourself as
much as possible. Rather be one who
does things for others, than one who
must haye things done fol you. Two
hands, two feet, sight, and strength
these ought to enable you to dis
pense with help while young and
vigorous. Men who can defy adverse
circumstances, and can earn a living
in any quarter of the world in which
they are dropped down who can roll
up their sleeves, and set to work at
almost anything that offers and who
can even sew on their own buttons,
and make themselves a cup of tea
when deprived of the help of woman
kind, are the ones who are really in
dependent. The most helpful women
are kindest and truest; and as for a
man, never trust him in any capacity
if he has not within him the true
spirit ofindependence, without which
neither strength nor sweetness may
be hoped for. In the battle of life
there is but one way to succeed-fight
it out yourself. Give the helping
hand when you. may. Take it if, in
some sore strait, it is offered freely;
but never ask for it. Be independent
as far as man may be, if you would
honor yourself, or be honored by
others, or be happy.

A Beautiful Incident.

A young man who had been on a
three days. debauch wandered into
the reading room of hotel. where he
was well known, sat down, and stared
moodIly, into the street. Presently a
little girl of about ten years of age
came in, and looked timidly about the
room. She was dressed in rags, but
had sweet intelligent face that could
scarcely fail to excite sympathy.
There were FIVE persons in the room,
and she went to each begging. One
gentleman gave her five-cent piece,
and she went to the gentleman spok-
en- of and asked him for penny, adj
ding, 81 haven't had anything to eat
for whole day." The gentleman
was out of humor, and he said cross
ly, "Don't bother me; haven't had
anything to eat in three days." The
child opened her eyes in shy wonder,
and stared at him for moment, and
then walked slowly toward the door.
She turned the knob; and then, after
hesitating few seconds, walked up
to him, and gently laying the five
cents on his knee, said, with a
tone of girlish pity in her voice. eff
you haven't had anything to eat you
take this and go and buy some bread.
Perhaps / can get more somewhere
The young man blushed to the roots
of his hair and. lifting the child in
his arms, kissed her two or three
times in delight. Then he took her
to the persons in the room, and those
in the corridor and Office, and asked
contributions, himself giving all the
money he had with him. He sue.
ceeded in raising over forty dollars
and sent the little one on her way re-
jOicing.

"EXactly. You're right. 1t is mercy. But

suffering from appearing in the

in the course oil the debate, accused

called to order by the president. it
is rumored that Won Puttkamer,

lister of the interior, will prob
ably resign because of Schools re-
fusal to answer the question of Jo-
Jameson in the Reichstag on Tues

ical and government press that a

ullras continue to support the cler-
icals, government VIII lean for sup
port TO the federate liberals. 1t is
expected the present majority in
the Reichstag aud the conservatives
will soon be disputed. The free
conservatives are disposed to toll
low the government even in the
new differences with Rome. The
fedeTate liberals, however, are very
mlstrustful of the changeable policy
OF Bismarck and the seceSsionists
and members of Forrschritt's party
will always oppose government,
Therefore the centre VIII for a time
at least remain master of the STU
