He that will not permit his wealth to do
any good to others while he is living prevents
it from doing any good to himself when he is
dead, and by an egotism that is suicidal and
has double edge, cuts himself off from the
truest pleasure here and the highest happi-
ness hereafter. -Colton

THE ErERNAL F1rNEss.

Finally, my son-for the weather is warm
and l omit Fin conclusion, ""but again, p ian
other thought, and lone word more"-the
purpose for which your hat is designed is to
cover your head; to protect your brain tank
from the heat Of the sun and the warp of the
drought, from the pelting hail and the driv-
ing rain. That do, therefore Not every
man can stand it to wear hard felt hat,
pulled far down straight across the brow.
when the Thermometer marks 80 in the shade
You know how to wear hat, and what kind
of a hat to wear. You wouldn't wear a Buff
falo Bill sombrero to church, and YOU
wouldn't go a fishing or into the surf in a
high, slick, shiny silk hat. You know how to
cultivate a good conscience. do mean that
fellow should have an adjustable conscience
that he changes to suit himselfl" Don't be
foolish, my son. You don't whistle the "Raz-
zle Dazzle" at a funeral, do youa You don't
open a baseball match with prayerl You
don't sing THE Babies on Our Blockn at a
christening, do you?
When you pay fifty cents for ten cent
lunch at a railway restaurant and have five
minutes to eat it in, you don't insist upon the
hungry mob remaining quiet until you have
asked Gods blessing on the food, / hope?
When you are called upon to take part in
prayer meeting, | trust you never recite
"How the Old Horse Won the Bet.n And
yet, all these things are right at the right
time and in the right place, and you can do
them all, heartily, earnestly and reverently,
without changing or readjusting your con-
science. That Is, if you have conscience of
your own. If you allow another man to
fasten his conscience on you, it will be just
about as useful as a steam gauge to a wind
mill, or a sun dial in a coal mine, and you
will have TO send for the man who owns it
every time you want to start it, or every
time circumstances and your surroundings
change. Wear your own hat, my boy; wear
it sensibly, properly, correctly, with due
regard for the eternal fitness Of hats and
things, but put it on yourself.-Bob Burdette
in Brooklyn Eagle.

ModiesI,a,s Pnrtraits-

Altogether, a curious woman is Modjeska.
You know all about her as an actress, nc
doubt, and probably admire her. In social
intercourse she is remarkable for culture
and intellect, and she also possesses that self
complacent estimate of her own abilities
without which, l suppose, no actress could
attain much success. l met her few days
ago in the studio of Frank Fowler, an artist,
who had invited a company to see a portrait
which he had painted Of her. If a lady in
private life had thus put her real face under
inspection alongside a picture Of it, she
would be open to the charge Of immodesty;
but Modjeska is accustomed to publicity.
The work isn't a likeness at all, remarked
somebody gazing at the original and then at
the painting
Eat ees true, seel zare ees noting similar
Look at US both We are not efen seesters
But look at US now"
She took a place close by the picture
struck the attitude in which it represented
her, and, behold, the faces were one in like
ness She had readily put her features into
exactly the combination shown on the cam
vas Subsequently, saw her give an odd
exhibition of an album full of her photo
graphs. There were over twenty radically
different views of her face, ranging from
grave to gay. She made herself like each Of
them at win.-Pr0vidence Pres.
