The great busy world is constant
ly calling for volunteers. The faith
full, the inilexible pupose, the idom-
table will, always finds field of
labor. In the professions, in every
mart of trade, in every avenue of
industry there is an increasing de-
mand for young men of energy,
ability and char tor. No Idlers
wanted. No Micuwbers waiting for
something to turn up, are ever
sought for. None but those who
are anxious to roll up their sleeves
and put their shoulders to the wheel
need ever venture to apply. Lead
ers are wanted. They who now
rule and manage, will soon pass
away, and their places must be fill
ed from the ranks of the young
men to-day. And who shall the
lucky one be? There is no royal
road to SUCCESS. He who would
win must work. Then arise, young
man, and look about you. Quit the
society of the idle and shun the
haunts of the prohigate Educate
yourself for a life of usefulness.
Choose an honorable calling and
rest not until you become leader
in that calling, whatever it may be.

experiences in their travels. A young
man relates with great gusto the fol
lowing incident;
Calling one Saturday at house in
small country town in New Hamp-
shire, he began at once to set forth
the good qualities of his wares, and,
after the. manner of his tribe, soon
waxed warm in his subject The good
housewife, wiping her hands on her
apron, sat chair for him, and hoping
he would excuse her looks and her
house, for seem twas bakin' day, she
hadn't got things set to rights, y was
soon deeply interested in his book.
The agent talked on. His sharp eyes
took in at a glance the appointments
Of the old-fashioned kitchen. His
mental comment was something after
this fasion:
'Tisn't over and above nice, that
fact. Floor is dirty as pig-pen.
But she'll wash it up, maybe. There's
an appetizing odor of brown bread
and Indian pudding. Baked beans,
real country baked beans, too. I'm
tired to death. There's no house
near Guess I'll stay here and rest
over Sunday. can stand the dirt
one day"
just here his attention was called
to a small black-and- tan dog that
seemed to be frantically jumping in
and out of the stove oven. Being
somewhat curious to observe the dog
more closely, he moved his chair
around where he could do so, and be-
held just inside the open oven door a
pot of beans steaming hot. and emit
ting the sayory smell which it seemed
he was not alone in approaching
At every jump into the oven the
little black-and-tan would catch n
mouthful of the beans, drop them on
the floor until they were cool, and
then devour them. The poor dog was
EVIDENTLY half-starved, and the book
agent kept on talking up" his wares
and telling no tales.
This went on for some time, the
woman being unconscious of the havoc
made with her Sunday-morning
breakfast
At last the dog, giving two or three
conyulsive jumps into the pot, brought
out huge piece of boiling hot pork
upon the floor. The young man
could stand it no longer, but burst
into n loud laugh which, with the
yelping of the dog, who had sadly
burned his mouth, called the woman's
attention to the state of her bean-pot /;
then she exclaimed.
''That ere plaguey dog is the tor
ment of my life balin' days for he
knows beans just as well as folks do,

Back again into the bean-pot went
that unfortunate bit of pork, and the
book agent went his way, concluding
he would not stop over Sunday, ant
meditating on "ways that me darl
