Living Within Yourself.

You live within yourself, and you end
by bringing everything home to your
self. If you were a vain person or an
egotist, l should say it was a normal
condition. But, with you, SO good and
generous, 1T is an anomaly, an evil that
must be combated. Be certain that
life is badly arranged. painful, irritat-
ing for everybody, but do not misun-
derstand the immense compensations,
which it is uIgratefui to forget. If it
soothes you to fly into rage against
this one or that one, no matter, but
that you should remain furious, indig-
nant, for weeks, months, almost years,
is unjust and cruel to those who love
you. and would spare you every care
and deception. En- bien! why should
you not marry? To live alone is odi-
Gus. it is mortal, and it is cruel, too,
to those who love you. Allyour letters
are sad and wiring my heart. Is there
no woman whom y>u loye, or by whom
you would be loved with pleasure' Take
her with you.
To live within ones self is bad. The
possibility of re-entering when one has
been out long time furnishes an intel
lectual pleasure, but too always inhab-
it this moi. who is the most tyrannical,
the most exacting, the most fantastic

Admiral Foote and the Gun-Boats.

I'm the railway train gentleman
who sat in front of me, learning that l
had constructed Foote'S vessels, in
troduced himself as Judge Foote, Of
Cleveland, brother of the Admiral.
Among other interesting matters, he
related an anecdote of one of his little
daughters who was just learning to
read. After the capture of Fort Henry
the squadron was brought back to Cairo
for repairs, and. on the Sunday follow
ing, the crews, with their gallant flag
officer, attended one of the churches in
Cairo. Admiral Foote was thorough
Christian gentleman and excellent i'm
promptu speaker. Upon this occasion,
after the congregation had assembled,
some one whispered to him that the
minister was i'll and would be unable to
otficiate; whereupon the Admiral went
up into the pulpit himself, and after
the usual prayer and hymn, he selected
as the text John xiv. I, Let not your
neart be troubled: We believe in God,
believe also in me- Upon this text he
delivered what was declared to be an
'xcellent sermon, or eXhortation, after
which he dismissed the congregation.
An account of the sermon was widely
published in the papers at the time, and
came into the hands of the little niece
Just referred to, After she had read it,
she exclaimed to her father:
"'Uncle Foote did not say that
right
~"'Say what rightP' asked the father.
"'Why, when he preached
"'What did he say?'
".He said, Let not your heart be
troubled: We believe in God, believe also
me.
"'Well, what should you have saidP
inquired the father.
".Well. he ought to have said, Let
not your heart be troubled: ye believe
in God. believe also in the gun
boats. "'"-Jdmes B. Edds, in the Gem

MECHANICS WHO RISE.

There is Il Iarge.sized nugget OF
truth in this from DIR. j. NJ. Buck.
lc,'s series of Letters TO Young
Men, in the New York Christian
Advocate {:
BENJAMIN Franklin told the truth
when he said that the best knowl-
edge man could give to his son
was the mastery of good trade.
Such man is cosmopolitan. He
cin make himself useful anys
where, and can live anywhere. II
It should not be necessary always
to work at his trade, he feels the
ability within to support himself.
Between the average mechanic
and the great manufacturer or mer-
chant prince, great numbers can be
found who began as mechanics,
and who have taken positions by
their mechanical skill fully equal
to that of the average merchant,
and far superior to that of most
clerks and professional men. =
Always have in view rising above
the position of mere iourneyman.
Look ut things from a broad, busi-
ness point Of view. Consider that
some day you may not be a jour-
ueyman, and try to study the rela-
tions Of capital to labor, and to
master the principles Of business,
so that, if yon should ever form a
partnership with a business man,
you will not be at his mercy, and
50 that if you choose, you may
al any time enter upon business

Your life I'M vain effort to over.

A Noted Stage RObber,

One of the most notorious stage
robbers on the Pacific slope is
again on trial at San Francisco for
one of his characteristic offences,
after having been less than a week
outside of the pententiary. His
name is William Smith alias G. y.
Weibussh. Smith was convicted
of ri1ing Wells, Fargo y Co.'S
treasurer box on stage from Mil
ton to Sonora, Cal, Dec. %, 1881,
and sentenced to San Qnentine,
bnt was released the other day,
having completed his sentence, less
the allowance for good behavior.
lie was quickly rearrested toy the
United States marshal on "A war
rant charging him with having
robbed the mails on til same stage.
On being arraigned in the United
States District court he pleaded
not guilty.
Smiths greatest exploit was the
single.handed robbery of Wells,
Fargo & Co.'s express on the stage
from Sierra Valley to Trnckee on
June 20, 1881. While he was
waiting in ambush tor the stage, a
light wagon containing seven men
appeared. The robber captured
| the conveyance and stood the oc
cupants up for an hour and II hal
until the Sierra Valley stage arriv
| ed. This contained four pasSen-
GERS. all of whom were compelled
to get down, except the driver
who was obliged to break opel
Wells, Fargo & Co.'s box and hanC
| ont the contents. While this wa
going on two other vehicles ap
proached and the driver in eacl
was compelled to get down an'
mingle with the other prisoners
At the close OF the afternoons per
formance Smith had thirteen men
sixteen horses, and four vehicle
under control of his doublc.barrel
ed shot gun.
