Without doubt, the secrets open to all
In business. II well followed, are most
sure to lead to suficiency. which Is sue
cess enough These are: Tenacity of pur-
pose, courage of convictions, strict at
tention to your own business and letting
that of others alone; knowing when to
say no and meaning 1T when said; allow
ing thought to precede words and action;
placing a high value on truth; rating the
respect of mankind higher than wealth;
living within your means; wearing an old
coat until you can pay for a new one; hay,
ing n firm belief that this life Is not all
there is to work for. There are other
secrets" which seem to lead to success,
and one called booming +" but it Is doubt
full If they should be encouraged or re-
commended to the rising generation, as
they are based o deception, supported
by f%alsehood. and lead to but a glitter of
success, likely to tarnish.-J. Il. Nc
Wicker in Chicago Journal.

To the human understanding tho vast
stretches of time involved in geological
history are utterly incomprehensible. 1t
Is not easy, indeed, to form an idea of
what a period even n million Of years Is,
though Croll tells US how a striking i'm
preston of such q lApsemay be conveyed to
the mind. Stretch a piece of paper eighty
three feet four inches long around the
walls of n room somewhat over twenty
feet square, recall the events of life to
give some conception of q hundred years,
and then consider that u mark one-tenth
of an inch broad at one end of the p
represents the century, while the whole
strip gives place for only u million years.
This Illustration is worth trying.
Could we stand, continues the author
of Climate and Time" upon tho edge of
a gorge, a mile and n half in depth, that
had been cut out of the solid rock by n
tiny stream scarcely visible at tho bottom
of this terrible abyss, and were we Informed
that this little streamlet was able to wear
off annually only one-tenth of an nch from
its rocky bed, what would our conception
be of the p%rodlgious length Of
time that this stream must nave
taken to ~excavate the gorge2 We
should certainly feel startled on finding
that the stream had performed this enor
nous amount of work In something less
than a million of years. Arkpnsaw

Tho Tramp to bis pard.

There is residing In the suburbs a gen
tleman who is the owner of a very large
amount of real estate, but who is one Of
the most negligent of persons In regard to
dress, his clothing being almost invaria-
bly, Of the shabbiest description. This
negligence is an eccentricity, and is not
due to penuriousness, for he is generous
and of a warm and genial nature. Not
many days ago, a tramp called at his
house during the owners absence, and, as
1t was the noon hour, the latter's wife, a
very sympathetic and kind hearted
woman, gave the nomad a good dinner.
Having finished the meal and thanked the
giver of the same, the tramp started of,
but just as he got to the gate he met the
owner Of the premises, and judging by his
dress that they were of the same frater-
nifty, the wanderer said: Look here,
pard, it's a leetle rough for two O. us to
work the same house durin' the same

Some millions of Frcnchmen have re-
ceived n shock; not an electric nor an
earthquake one. 1t belongs to the moral
order of phenomena, but It has none the
less spread CONSERVATION. The highest
court in France-the Cour de Cessation
whose function is to decide knotty ques-
tons of law by a direct appeal to tho
moral principles from which all laws arc
in theory derived, has declared that a man,
having promised marriage to a woman,
incurs the liability to pay her u pecuniary
indemnity in the event of his refusing to
keep his promise. The shock is contained
in his decision, for which the public
mind was quite unprepared. A breach has
been made In a fortress that was held to
be impregnable and everlasting, and
through this breach 1t Is feared the whole
army of Frenchwomen will march, feathers
and ribbons flying, and that they will re-
fuse TO lay down their arms-there are no
longer distaffs-until n new revolution
has been proclaimed in favor of their sex.
Breach of promise cases in other coun-
tries, especially In England, have hitherto
proved mn i~nexhaustible mine of humor to
the French journalists. They have told
us ngain and again that the principle Of
assessing a pecuniary indemnity for sen
timental damage may seem natural
enough to John Bull, to whom time Is
A"hgS hholASl' hlcluulnB Inc Ilne spent
in unsuccessful love making, but that it
is much too revolving to the instinct of
Frenchmen for 1t ever to be admitted In
judicial practice here. Revolving to
F%renchmen the principle undoubtedly is,
but not so to Frenchwomen. They hold
that all weapons that can be used against
the male who profits In many ways by the
unfair division of power between the
exes are good to keep in reserve. Paris

Greeley was n revelation to California
/ was in Sacramento when the great edi.
tor appeared on the scene from the over.
land trip in the early fall think 1t was
In 1859. He had been advertised to speak,
and went direct from the stage coach to
the hall, where q large audience was i'm
patiently awaiting him.
Without removing his hat, which
perched as usual on the back of his head,
Mr.. Greeley, in his long white overcoat,
strobe down the aisle amid thunders of
applause. Still keeping his hat upon his
head, he was introduced to the chairman
of the meeting, and turned to speak. As
he did SO he took off his hat, but began
talking as he did so, and not knowing ex-
actly where to place It, put 1t on the desk
before him. The sight of this uncouth.
odd, earnest man, queerly CARRIED, with
odd gestures, instructing and entertain
ing u large mass of his fellow men for an
hour and n half, was most suggestive.
AS he proceeded, warming with his sub
ject, continuing his talk, he took off his
overcoat. and tossed it on a chair in the
rear.
He made a great hit, with the old timers,
especially, and during his brief stay was
lionized to his hearts content. / say to
his hearts content because there was n
great deal of human natur in Greeley.
He was much more partial TO praise, and
much moro easily affected by it han many
people imagine.-Joo Howard in Once a
