PuIL,s NEW YEARS PRESENT.

In n of the big buildings in the down
town. of New York, whence the newspa-
pers emanate and the financial wheels that
move the whole country ~reyolve, there Is a
cigar store presided over by q young man
known as phil" He has n more preten-
tious name, no doubt, but the customers
who buy cigars there never heard it. His
face has been daily reflected in the glitter
inc show cases of that establishment for
live wears. In describing him it would be
enough to say that his principal apparent
possessions are a fiery and formidablem mus
tache and a kind heart.
The little newsboys and newsgirls in his
n~eighboorhood have learned to be very
fond of Phil in the five years they have
known him. When the weather is cold
they fit in and out of his place Of business
like stray birds seeking shelter, and they
are always welcome. Phil never said q
word or wore a look that would cause the
raCgedest and dirtiest of them to feel that
ltheir presence was an intrusion. They
kluttered in at all times with rags flying
Nike faglets over their shivering little
bodies and hair falling over their red and
| simy faces. They warmed their benumed
ibCers and chirruped together, feeling
perfectly at home in Pills shop, and ther
siuyly, or in groups, darted out into the
cold to pursue the difficult business o
earning their bread.
On last New Years eve, just before Phi
was ready to close the store, a party Of his
little friends rushed in. Their eyes wer,
glowing, and their manner indicated thai
something unusually exciting was in thu
wind. Thecompany was headed by a blacl
eyed, baby faced girl, who has no othel
name than Mary. She had been SELLING
papers on the corner for three years, ana
when she first began she was so little she
could not walk up the steps. Paddy
Haggerty was next in the procession
For years his father had q new!
stand on the corner Of Hickman street, and
Just four weeks before New Years haC
dropped dead there. Besides these there
were Mickey-the-Pig SNOWFALL Billy, afuz
~ headed blonde, Becky McGill. Oscar
the-Dude and wee little Bible Back, 81
called because he has q hump between hi:
shoulders resembling a family Bible. Yes
and ,Siplas Johnny was also one OF them
| He acquired his name from q chronic rasf
on his face resembling erysipelas.

New Thought for the New Year.

The new year ought to mean new
thought if the old has been oppressive.
The new years resolve has something OF
the divinity in it, early and often as it is
broken. Even the resolve to break of
some old habit is a stride forward, a step
upward. Every reform, every %upbuilding
must have its origin in q new thought. A
thought lies behind every action.
In making new resolve, nothing is more
necessary than to cultivate the art of for
getting. The reason some people are
chemically wretched is because, if they
had a sorrow, a burden or q disgrace, they
are forever thinking about, and so forever
remaining conscious of it. They carry it
in their mind, which is really keeping it
alive all the time. Did they but know it,
the world would o forget it if they
would allow it to. If they would throw
it put of. their mind and compel it to stay
out it would cease to exist. No human
soul ever grew upward who nursed his
former blunders, failures and sins in his
mind.
"How can | forget my wOes?" says one.
''They inhabit my mind necessarily, and
| can't get a minutes respite from their
torture" Yes you can. Bring into your
mind new, fresh, good thought and the old,
oppressive, soul destroying kind will leave,
because it will not feel at home with the
new. When you light up a room you
don't first try to drive the dark out. You
make a light and, 10! the dark is gone.
1t connot stay where the light is. 1t is the
very same with respondent and destruc-
tive thought leaves when there are no
dark corners in the mind for it to lurk in.
Thought is something more than larry
nothings of the brain 1t is substance,
the finest substance i'll the universe, the
/ invisible motor of mankind, mentally and
physically, for it is behind every move
ment, every action. Prentice Milford
says:
ITO learn to forget is as necessary and
useful as to learn to remember. We think
of many things every day which it would
I've more profitable not to think of at all.
To be able. to forget is to be able to drive
away the unseen force (thOught) which is
iniuring us, and change it for q force Tor
order of thought) to benefit us. To-
day thousands of thousands never
thinl; of controlling the character of
their thought. They allow their minds to
drift. They never say of thought that
is troubling them, 4 won't think OF it
UncOnsciouSly, then, they demand what
works them i'll, and their bodies are made
sick by the kind of thought which they
allow their minds to fasten on. An ugly
or melancholy mood of mind is a devil.
1t can make us sick, lose us friends and
lose US money"
So the resolves that abound on New
Years morning are wise and well. They
are the beginning of good action. They
but having once CntefeT TIC mind they
will come back again if encouraged.
