again. He said the wounds might heal,
but that the gentle creature had been too
much frightened to recover. At sun
down she died, and then the doctor found
that her broken leg was healing rapidly,
and said it was a pity she couldn't have
lived to run about again. She was buried
under the blues grass where she had been
so happy.
Billie was so lonely without her that
for the lack of something better to do be
began to destroy the vegetable garden.
This sealed his doom. He was given to

fenced in all around. Here he became
friends with beautiful greyhound, and
spent his days chasing him about as he
had once chased his little sister Mamie.

PROUD OF HIS SISTER.

The Chicago Tribune relates the case
Of young man who was regarded as a
phenomenon, because he took his sister
to all the best entertainments, and actu-
ally devoted himself to her during the
lecture and concert season. Being prais-
ed for his unusual attention to his sister,
the young man promptly and proudly
replied:
"No, there's nothing wonderful or ex-
traordinary about it. She is the only
woman know in whom have the most
thorough confidence. She ia always the
same, always pleased and affectionate,
and to tell you the candid truth, I'm
afraid she'll go and marry some of these
imitation men around here and be unhap.
Ply all her life.
"She has nobody else to look to, and
I'll take care she does not have to look
to any body else. suppose some day a
genuine man will come along. If he is q
genuine man wont object. Until he
does come, she's good enough for me;
and if 1 ever find as good girl I'll marry
her."
The example is most commendable. A
20 ing man would do well to seek his sis
ter's society until he finds another lady
as good as his sister.

CHOOSING AN OCCUPATION.


The choice of an occupation depends
partly upon the individual preference
and partly upon circumstances. 1t may
be that you are debarred from entering
upon that business for which you are
best adapted. In that case make the
best choice in your power, apply yourself
faithfully and earnestly to whatever you
undertake, and you cannot we'll help
achieving success. Patient application
sometimes leads to great results. No man
should be discouraged because he does
not get on rapidly in his calling from the
start. In the more intellectual profess
sions especially it should be remembered
that a solid character is not the growth OF
a day, that the mental faculties are not
matured except by long and laborious
culture.
Ever remember that it is not your
trade .or profession that makes you re-
spectacle. Manhood and profession or
handicraft, are entirely different things
An occupation is never an end Of life. It
is an instrument put into our hands by
which to gain for the body the means of
living until sickness or old age robs it of
life, and we pass on to the world for
which this in preparation. The great
purpose of living is twofold in character.
The one should never change from the
time reason takes the helm. 1t is to live
life of manliness, of purity and honor,
to live such life, whether rich or poor,
that your neighbors will honor and re-
spect You as man of sterling principles.
The other is to have some business, in
the due performance of which you are to
put forth all your exertions. 1t matters
not SO much what it is, as whether it be
honorable; and it may change to suit the
varying change of circumstances. When
these two objects and high
aim are fairly before youth, what
then? He must strive to attain those OBJ
jecte. He must ork as we'll as dream
labor as well as pray. His hand must be
as stout as his heart. Purpose must be
followed by action. Then els living and
acting worthily as becomes human be-
ing with great destinies in store for him.

An old resident of the city narrates the
following story as current about forty years
ago, during the early days Of the present
parish church Every one who has had his
hat blown off on the plaza in front of that
edifice will appreciate its flavor and give it
its merited place as q legend:
The Devil diabolus locl was one day
walking along NOtre Dame street with a
priest, bOaSting upon the extent of his
power in this neighborhOod As they dis
puted they came to the church. Come in,
said the priest, and l will show you that
here you will lose all your power" The
Devi consented, but, as he was accompanied
by a wind, he turned TO the latter and said:
You stay there till | come out" As the
Devil has not made his appearance, the wind
has been hanging about there ever since.
