Here are some of the queerest as well
as the grandest things that could ever
be sent to ruler. temporal or spiritual.
Gold and silver have been hewn bv the

of jewel that the enthusiastic mind

and Queens could not have sent more

Here are slippers. enough to have

things which people wonder what the

why Young Men who Nurse sensitiveaess
Are Rarely sucres@ful.

Many talented persons miss the road
tn fortune by want of humility and
patience. They think every thing must
depend on "a good start" and unless
they can make - good engagement"
they will remain out Of employment for
weeks and months They miss three
things-support for that time. the
practice that keeps talents improving,
and the furnishing of the best evidence
that they are willing tn work.
A man is far more likely to be called
from an humble To more advantage
Gus position than from idleness to the
place he desires.
The trouble with many young men is
foolish pride which seems to say that
idleness is more honorable than work
They have very delicate feelings-it
goes against their feelings to do this
and that, when there is nothing what

How Two l. yes Were severed and Two

1t was but a shy. retiring hammock
covered with dust; it had lain for
months in secluded garnet where the
silence WIS broken only by the scam
pering of the mice or the noisy odor of
the cockroach. Yet this hammock had
a mission in life. and when the hired
man came up and yanked it forth from
its lair of old linament bottles and
seatless chairs il knew that its time
for action hsd come.
Soon was it oscillating gently be-
meath the shadows of the great oak
trees. awaiting the coming of Algernon
and Mabel. who were soon seen stroll
Ing down from the front porch. Soon
the folds of the hammock no longer
swung listIess. Three hundred pounds
of avoirdupois is likely to take any
trace of listlessness out of the most in
dolent hammock.

music. listened and hung their heads in
