PlrH AND POINT.

1T is often an educated taste and
an ability to appreciate an object which
makes it valuable, while ignorance can
see in it Youths Companion
If you want to find out mans
real disposition, take him when he's
wet and hungry. If he is amiable
then, dry him and fill him up, and you
have an angel.
Never be afraid of criticism or
ridicule; always remember that opposi-
tion and calumny are often the bright
est tribute that vice and folly can pay
to virtue and wisdom. R b. Hayes.
When his animal strikes a 2:20
gait, the turfman knows that he's on
the road to wealth. But for the ordi-
nary farmer at the county fair the road
to wealth leads through the exit gate.
Don't keep on hand too many cut
and dried theories. A foot rule is a
convenient thing for a carpenter TO
carry about with him; but man who
is always "sizing up" other peoples
opinions by private rule of his own
is apt to be bore.
1t is the habitual thought that
frames itself into our life. 1t affects
us even more than our intimate, social
relations do. Our confidential friends
have not so much TO do in shaping our
lives as the thoughts have which we
harbor.
Many man seems reader to work
almost anywhere else than in his own
sphere. His proper and legitimate
work be counts as drudgery, while
there is certain fas cination to him in
work which is not his appointed task.
Yet, as a practical matter, the man
who will not do his own work is not
worth much in the doing of any body
elses work.
Some OF the simplest things in life
are the hardest to learn. Any man
who knows how to think, realizes the
fact that you can't by any possibility
add two and two and make six, and yet
hundreds of intelligent people work on
the principle that they can secure a
81 200 living out of 5000 in cash or its
equivalent
Life consists not of a series of illus
trious actions or elegant enjoyments;
the greater part of our time passes in
compliance with our necessities, in the
performance of daily duties, in the re-
moval of small inconvenience, in the
procurement of petty pleasures, and we
are well or ill at ease as the main
stream of life glides on smoothly or is
ruffied by small obstacles and frequent
