demand The stock market to-day made the
nearest approach to absolute stagnation that
has been seen so far this year. There was no
news which mad any effect upon the
course of prices, and til e attendance at
the board was extremely limited, which
gave rise to a sort of deadlock between the
forces in the market. The traders, in alb
sence of the larger spectators, betrayed
disposition to help the list down. but there
was moderate demand for stocks at the
figures, and firm tone developed which was
sufficient to carry quotations slightly above
the opening prices. There was firm open
ing, with first sales at from 1s0ss per cent
above last nights prices, though large pro-
portion of the stocks traded in were I'M
where in the list except in st. Paul,
Lake Shore and Western Union, but the total
sales of Lake Shore, which led the list In
point of activity were only 4,l30 shares, and
the fluctuations for the entire session in no
stock exceeded 70 of per cent: Prices ad-
vanced slightly in the first half hour, after
which they remained stationary for the re-
mainder of the time, The close was
firm at the figures. The final changes
only, with most of the list higher, the
extreme advances beng ssc each in North

San Francisco preferred, however, was ex-
ceptional with a loss of 11s. The railroad
being unusually dull. The total sales ag-
gregated only S259,o0O. and the fluctuations
were scarcely perceptible and entirely insig-
nifcant. There was only one final change
for more than small fractions, which was in
Michigan Central fives, of 1881. which rose
to l12. The total sales of stocks to-day were
S2,242 shares, including: Delaware, Lacka-

Hidden troubles, securely locked in the
breast OF many man who goes about his
ordinary business with composed face,
constitute a large part of the tragedy OF
everyday life. The theme is one OF which
Thackeray, as his admirers do not require
to be told, never became tired; and / think
that the older one grows and the more one
sees and knows of his fellowmen, the
stronger becomes the impression of an
omnipresent skeleton in the closet. ! like
the sturdy Anglo-Saxon nature which,
keeping the skeleton well within his closet,
turns the key on him and confronts the
world with face which makes no sign.
Toward the more emotional characters. as
they are called, who yiAld to the desire for
expression and the craving for sympathy,
am afraid that / feel somewhat as do
those British barbarians who regard the
French rs so many ssshrieking, poor
devils. u--Taverner in Boston Post.

A member OF the official stenographic
corps Of the reichstRg, In writing Of Bis
marck as o speaker, says: 1T Il not the
speed with which he speaks that makes
the reporters task Of taking down his
words an especially difficult one, for there
are swifter takers than he; but Prince
Bismarck speaks &C very unequal rate,
and as rule Il is quickest at those very
places which are most 10 the point. Not
nnfreQuently, zoo, he interrupts himself
with intermediate sentences; and he has
peculiar style of his own, with quite I'M
expected turns Of speech3 In addition to
which he often interweaves quotations
sometimes in foreign languages-with his
remarks, and occasionally, toward the
end Of sentence, speaks so low as 10
make him difficult to be understood at our
desk, although it is in the immediate VI
entity Of where he stands. And then the
stenographer cannot altogether get rid OF
the feeling that he Is working under the
pressure OF the weight and importance OF
what he is taking down, as well as under
the consciousness that he Is preserving
the words of the man at whom all Europe
is looking. John p. jackson in New

Ono of the obstacles TO success Ia
the lack of that eager interest and un-

necessary TO the greatest usefulness.
Most men content themselves with
simple discharge Of the work laid be-
fore them; they do not endeavor to
devise new and better methods Of
doing it; they do not charge il with
indiyidu atty; they do not develop an
ovcsflow of energy which carries it on
strongly and intelligen,ly. The men
who achieve these things are the men
who mako themselves Indispensable;
they are rarely thrown ont of employ
mcnt. and when accident or the
chances of business temporarily throw
them out they are not long in
finding new opportunity. Such men
arc always in demand. and to such
men come the larger opportunities
which belong 10 every business II
has been said that fortunate accidents
come only TO men of genius; but this
Is n partial statement; they come also
TO men of great industry and earnest
ness A pcrfunctory doing Of ones
work is the great banc of life; 1t il
that which keeps men in respectable
positions who might fill eminent ones;
it is that which keeps host of men
out OF employment who might have
their hands full. The maxim Of tho
French writer: Put your heart into
your business" is the secret of sue
cess A mans work Is not something
to which he looks simply for bread
and butter; il Is the door which he
must continually expect 10 see opening
into something better; it Is oPportu-
nifty into which he ought to put his
whole strength II has moral and
spiritual as well rs o mere business
aspect to tho earnest man; he is not
satisfied with simply doing his work
and leaving his desk clear; he aspires
to individualizc II. TO put his whole
personality into it; in business rs in
every thing else. personality is the
prime factor. Machinery will do
much. but it will never do more than
n machine can do; there must be n
man behind it. II you wish success.
do not stint yourself; do not give hall
your force; put your whole self into
your opportunity; go to your task
every day as if that day were tho
critical day of your life; put your
heart into your business. ChristiaH
