IrresOintiOn.

lresolution is a fatal habit; it is not
vicious in itself, but it leads to vice,
creeping upon its victims with fatal
facility, the penalty of which many
fine heart has paid at the scafTold. The
idler, tho spendthrift, the epicure, and
the drunkard are among its victims.
Perhaps in the latter its effect appears in
the most hideous form. He knows that
the goblet nc is about to drain is poison,
yet he swallows it, He knows-for the
example of thousands has painted it in
glaring colors-that it will deaden all his
faculties, take the strength from his
heart, oppress him with disease, and hur-
ry his progress to a dishonored grave, yet
he drains it. How beautiful, on the con
trary, is the power of resolution, enabling
the one who possesses it to pass through
perils and dang ers, trials and tempta-
tions! Avoid the contraction of the
habit of irresolution. Strive against it
to the end.

A Well.KnOwn Type of Man.

In Gilbert and Sullivan's new opera,
''Princess Ida" one of the characters
King Gama-introduces himself in a
song which capitally describes a charac-
ter found in every community. We give
the song:
If you give me your attention L will tell you
what am:
I'm genuine philanthropist-a other kinds
are sham.
Each little fault of temper and each social
defect
In my erring fellow creatures l endeavor to
correct.
To all their little weaknesses l open peoples
eyes,
And little plans to snnb the self.suf1icient
devise;
I love my fellow creatures, do all the good
l can,
Yet everybody says Pm such disagreeable
AMI can't think why
To compliments inflated I've withering re-
ply,
And vanity l always do my best to mortify:
A charitable action can skilfully dissect,
And interested motives Pm delighted to de-
tect;
l know everybody's income and what every
body earns
And carefully compare it with the income
tax returns:
But to benefit humanity, however much 1
plan,
Yet everybody says I'm such disagreeable
man
And l can't think why

BROTHER eARpNER's pHrLosoPuY.

After the stove-pipe had been knocked
down by the efforts of Giveadam Jones to
rest both his feet on the hearth at once,
and Judge CadavG, Pickles Smith and
Blossom johnson had heroically restored
1t to place. Brother Gardner arose and
said:
zone great cause of human misery am
de fack dat mankind expects too much
of Providence. Take de case of Elder
Toots, fur instance. Fur de las sixty
y'ars he has been waitin' fur Providence
to stop de leaks in his cabin roof an he
am waitin' yit. He somehow expecks dat
Providence am going to furnish him pie,
an cake, an oyster soup, an when he sots
down to cold taters an tuff meat he feels
as if he had been wronged.
''Take de case of Bradawl Jalap. He
has allus had de idea dat he would some
day be rich, an as a conscience he sots
on de fence an plans new houses, an
drives fast hosses, an WARS good clothes,
while his wife goes ragged, and his chill
dren have cold toes. What he might
airn by honest labor he won't airn, be-
kase he hopes to git fortune widout
work.

waits fur to-morrer to sharpen his ak am
sartin to do poo chopin. De man who
sots on de fence to wait fur legacy will
h'ar his wife scrapin' de bottom OBJ de

THE cnwRoY,s ORDER

A typical cowboy, fresh from his herd,
went in Elitch's chop house last night.
The tables were all filled with the ex-
ception of one, at which the terror of
the plains seated himself. AS he pulled
off hls hat and united the red bandanna
handkerchief from around his throat, he
looked disdainfully around.
The nimble waiter brushed an imagin-
ary bread crumb from the cloth, whisked
bill of fare from the castor, and placed
it before the festive and untamed youth.
Take it away" he snarled. 81 can't
cat that. want rattlesnake on toast"
'Rattlesnake on toastn yelled the
waiter.
'Rattlesnake on toastm responded the
cook.
There was a slight flutter among the
guests at this strange order, and the cow
boy was scanned by many curious eyes.
He looked a little disconnected at
having his order so promptly taken, and
glanced furtively toward the front of
the house. He saw the cooks and wait
ers engaged in filling orders, and looking
as solemn as graveyards after midnight.
lie assumed nonchalant air and picked
his teeth with his fork.
A cook deftly removed the skin from

The waiter who had taken the order
came tripping back to the bold bucca-

''Will you have your snake well done
or rare!"
Rare, with oodles of milk gravy on
it."
"Gimme that snake rare-milk gravy
on the side, was hallood to the cook

shouted back.
''Sayn' said the bovine steerer, as the
waiter passed him. '1'll take it well

snake it well done"
Make it well done, was answered
back.
The lariat wrestler began to grow ner-
vous. The deyil-may care expression had
left his eyes, and a soft, subdued, melan-
choly shade had taken its place. He
hdgeted in his chair, and seemed to be
nerving himself for an ordeal.
Here you are, sir, said the culinary
