pom. I.ools ON the BARK side of Things.

1t is only when a man is so constituted
that he worries over what he cannot help
that there is danger of self murder. This
kind Of worry has tendency to unbalanee
a mans mind, and then he is liable 10 do
anything. An intensely, nervous man,
with disposition to look on the dark side
of life, will worry himself about anything
Sometimes it is business, again it is some
pet object, or it may be some trifiing thing.
Whether his suicide is preceded by dis
appointment, the loss of money, or some
small annoyance, the fact should be con-
sidered that he was from the first victim
of the worrying habit, and therefore on the
road to insanity.
When a man finds the habit OF worry
growing upon him lie should make Wig
orous effort to throw it off. Let him cul-
tivate philosophical Indifference. He
will find that the best way to keep trouble
at a distance is to go through the world
with a smile on his face. No great harm
will ever come to such man. He may
never be very rich or successful, but be
will always get along, and live ont his
allotted time upon the earth. This may
not be very bright prospect, but it is in
finitely better than tie fate in store for the
man who worries himself over everything
that goes wrong.

then money is not principal with him; but
If having enough to live upon in the mar
ner befitting his character and rank, he
still wants to make more, and to die rich,
then money is the principal object with
him, and it becomes a curse to himself, and
generally to those who spend it after him.
For you know it must be spent some day;
the only question is whether the man who
makes it shall spend it or some one else.
And generally it is better for the maker to
spend it, for he will know best its value

KEEP OUT OF DEBT.

Half the perplexity, annoyance aud
trouble that men have in this world is in
consequence of getting into debt. 1t seems
to be natural for some people to buy and
incur obligations without measure, so long
as they can avoid paying ready cash. Give
one of this sort chance to buy on credit,
and the question Of price and conditions
of payment are matters that he cares but
little about. But what crop of trouble
springs from the seed of debt. How many
sleepless nights result from it? How
many gray hairs it brings, and how often
it shortens life-sometimes leading men to
commit suicide or murder, And yet, how
easy a thing it is to keep clear Of this ter
rble monster. Every young man should
form fixed an unalterable determination,
before commencing his active business ca
reer, not to incur one penny of indebtedness
under any circumstances. Never borrow.
Never buy anything unless you have the
money to pay for it at once. Pay no at
tention to splendid opportunities, 'bar-
gains, laiS CAAuCSs, anu tuS AlhS. SuSH
affairs are only traps which debt sets to
catch victims. If you see anything yoa
would like to buy, or if any offer is made
that you would like to accept, look first at
your money pile, and make the answer de-
pend upon that. Always pay as you go.
If you are short of money, gauge your
demands aecordinely

THE CHEERFUL FARM KITCHEN.

A spacious farm kitchen, when there's
clean and loving mother presiding over it,
is about as pleasant as any spot on earth.

kettle. the smooth painted floor, tic braid

squeaking rocking chair in which she knits
and sews, the geraniums and petunias ard
other easy growing plants in the windows,
the big long table--on which are served
such meals as only ''mother" can prepare.
All. we are sorry for the poor child that
does not get a iife-start in such room.
1t is to this big, pleasant-atmosphered
kitchen that the children can look for COM
fort and pleasure in this growing Novem-

Think deliberately of the house you live

you, defend yourself. Do not take cold,

POETRY AND A GOOD PRONUNCIA-
TION.

Professor James Russell Lowell, whom
Emerson and other good judges have voted
the greatest American poet, is probably
also the best pronuncer of English. 1t is
not likely that he has superior IN En-
gland, and l,e certainly has not in the Uni
ted States. He says ''stat-yueD for statue,
and he does not say "Franche' or
"Frawnce'' for France.
Poets like Lowell and DIR. Holmes have
to be very particular about these things,
because the length or brevIty Of vowel Is
the very essence of rhythm and meter
For this reason, good pronunciation and
correct accents are more easily learned
from good poetry than from ordinary prose.
1t is worth long journey to hear Or.
Holmes or Mr.. Lowell read their Own
poems. DIR. Holmes is specially good at
reading his witty verses, and Mt. L0Eeh
ia reading his serious poems. - I,ftrot fs'ss

Men don't believe in devil now, as their
fathers use to do;
They've forced the door OF the broadcast creed
to let his majesty through;
There isn't a print of his cloveu foot, ora liery
dart from his bow.
To be found in earth or ar to-day, for the
world has voted SO.
Bnt who is mixing the fatal dlaught that pal
sizes heart and brain,
And loads the earth of each passing year with
ten hundred thousand slain?
Who blights the bloom OF the land to-day with
the fiery breath of hell,
II the devil isn't and never was? Won't some
BODY rise and tell?
Who dogs the steps of the toiling saint, and
digs the pits for his feet?
Who sows the tares in the field of time wher-
ever God sows his wheat?
The devil is voted not TO be, and of course the
thing is true;
But who is doing the kind of work the devil
alone should do?
We are told he does not go about as a roaring
lion now;
But whom shall we hold responsible for the
everlasting row
To be heard III home, in church, in state to
earths remotest bound,
the devil, by a unanimous vote, is nowhere
TO be found.
Won't somebody step to the front forthwith,
and make his bow and show
How The frauds and the crimes of the day
spring up, for surely we want to know?

We find the above in the Home Com.
panion of Oct. /, 1886, and we wish to add
the following:
Q yes, dear friend, there's devil now, as
there was in days of yore,
And he is just as busy with his work OF death
as he ever was before.
But this is an age Of progress and he IS not so
great a fool,
As TO soil his hands with dirty work. when he
can find a ready tool.
That all the deyii has to do is to get behind the
screen,
And plan the work for willing tools, is clearly
10 be seen.
1t seems little hard 10 say, and yet it is quite
true,
That men are doing the kind of work that
devils alone should do.
Brewers and distillers mix the draught that
palsies heart and brain,
And loads the earth each passing year, with a
hundred thousand slain.
Who authorizes men to blight the land, with
the fiery breath of he'll,
And share with them the price of blood, will
somebody rise and tell?
Who says, for two hundred dollars tax, men
may take the DEVILS place,
And do the kind of fendish work that would
his majesty disgrace?
Who says that city aldermen may open wide
the gates ofhelI,
And desecrate Gods Holy Day, will somebody
rise and tell?
Won't some one step to the front forthwith,
and make his bow and show
How Christians can endorse such laws, for
surely we want to know?
The devil voted in instead of out, ana be sure
he has not gone.
But he leaves the job to church and state to
carry his business on,
Now, Christian friends take my advice, and
give the devil his due,
And do not charge the sins TO him, that be-
long to me and you;
If by our votes we aid the work that devils
love so well,
Then can we escape the mark of Cain, win
somebody rise and tell?
