The Better Time,

The man in rags, the drunkard and
the man in good circumstances, all
hope for better time. The wretch,
who believes, after repeated trials,
that he has not the strength to mas
ter his alcoholic appetite, will, as he
tremblingly lifts his glass, say !:
swell, here's hoping" Hoping for
what? A better time, he says. What
good can better time do him? The
world might be full of happiness,
wages might be ten times as high and
the necessaries of life ten times as
cheap, and still, so long as he yields
to his appetite, there is no hope for
him. The ragged tramp hopes for q
better time; not a time when work
shall be more plentiful, but a time
when servants shall be little more
prompt in handing out something
through the kitchen window, or may
hap, for time when people after
giving him clothes, shall insist upon
his taking dinner with them. The
man who is comfortably situated, who
has a fair business, hopes for a bet
ter time. What better time does he
want? He provides well for his fam
lily, dresses we'll and goes to places
of amusement when his business for
the day is closed, yet he is waiting
and hoping for better time. That
better time usually comes with the
undertaken at one end of it. A little
philosophy, the philosophy of resig-
nation, should be literally mixed with
hope. Hope is nearly always disap-
pointed: philosophy never is. Hope
is extravaganza philosophy is eco
Let the man in rags, the
drunkard and the man in good cir
think of these things.
Well, here's hoping.

Rules For Pleasant Lines.

A book published year age" The
Five Talents of Woman gave the
following rules for beauty of express
sion, which the writer of the book
claimed was much more attractive
than beauty of features:
Learn to govern yourselves and be
gentle and patient.
Guard your tempers, especially in
seasons of i'll health, irritation, and
trouble, and soften them by prayers
and sense of your own shortcomings
and errors.
Never speak or act in anger until
you have prayed over your words or
acts.
Remember that, valuable as is the
gift of speech, silence is often more
valuable.
Do not expect too much from 9TH
ers, but forbear and forgive, as you
desire forbearance and forgiveness
yourself.
Never retort a sharp or angry word.
It is the second word that makes the
quarrel.
Beware of the first disagreement.
Learn to speak in a gentle tone of
voice.
Learn to say kind and pleasant
things whenever opportunity offers.
Study the characters of each, and
sympathize with all in their troubles,
however small.
Do not neglect little things if they
can affect the comfort of others in
the smallest degree.
Avoid moods and pets and fits of
sulkiness.
Learn to deny yourself and prefer
others.
Beware of meddlers and talebear-
ers.
Never charge bad motive if a
good one is conceivable.
Be gentle and firm with children.

Keeping at 1t.

1t is a great mistake to suppose
that the best work of the world is
done by people of great strength and
great opportunities. 1t is unquestion-
ably an advantage to have both these
things, but neither of them is ne
cessity to the man who has the spirit
and the pluck to achieve great results
Some of the greatest work of our
time has been done by men of physi-
cal feebleness. No man has left a
more distinct impression of himself
On this generation than Charles OAR
win, and there have been few men
who have had to struggle against
such prostrating i'll health. Darwin
was rarely able to work long at a
time. He accomplished his great
work by having a single aim, and
putting every ounce of his force and
every hour of his time into the task
which he had set before him. He
never scattered his energy, he never
wasted an hour, and by steadily
keeping at it, in spite of continual
ill-health and of long intervals of
semi-invalidism, he did great work,
and has left the impression upon the
world of man of extraordinary en-
ergy and working capacity. Success
is rarely matter of accident, always
a matter of character. The reason
why SO many men fail is that so few
men are willing to pay the price of
self-denial and hard work which sue
cess exacts.

A Colorado Episode.

In the northern or central part of
Colorado one scarcely sees a Next
can, but in the southern portion of
the state, there are q great many, land
one cannot go many miles in any di-
rection, without coming to little
adobe village, or pueblo. They are
always built on the same plan, III the
form of hollow square or ''plaza"
with only two openings in the solid
walls or mud bricks, laid up so Sc
curely and plastered with more mud,
until the walls are as smooth as our
plastered houses inside. They are
mostly mud color on the outside, but
inside are as white as lime can make
them, and occasionally one sees a
house whitewashed on the outside,
which adds greatly to their beauty.
These little towns are always built
near one of the little mountain
which serve them in several ways, as
they obtain the water they use from
them, and the women always do the
washing standing in the water, and
rubbing the clothes against a rock,
until clean, then spreading them out
to dry, while the pebbly bottoms of
the clear streams are fairly alive with
speckled trout that are constantly
darting here and there and which add
in no small way to their somewhat
meagre fare. / could not relish the
cool snow water of these mountain
streams, after seeing the women at
their washing, unless it was brought
from at least mile up the river, and
even then the thought that perhaps
it had just passed through some other
Mexican town, reduced my thirst
very perceptibly.
We kept a store in one of the new
towns that follow the building of the
railroads, and spring up like Jonah's

The Color-Bearer.

The standards faded and folded away;
No longer the echoing strain
OF the buge is calling, at break of the day,
Into lines or to battle again;
But the standards cleaning in letters of gold
With luster that never can fade,
And the bugle re-echoes the story of old,
The history heroes have made.
Let the standard be folded; disturb not a star
OF its fold, llet-ridded and red
For its glory in the battle affair,
Shining over the patriot dead.
And to-day we return the field and the fray,
Where foated the flag to the sky,
And sing of the bearer who bore it away,
In the front of the battle to die,
On the banks of the Neuse, in the forest see,
In the enemy's fortified line,
A building unsightly, yet grander to
Than imperial palaces fine;
For over their works in the battles red glow,
My hero marched forward alone,
And planted the standard high over the foe,
And made the old building his throne.
The columns that followed this conquering king
Asked no other order sign,
But charged with cheer thar forever shall ring,
And swept through the enemy's line!
You may sing if you will OF your brave brigadier,
And loud of his bravery brag;
But the soldier deserving the old battle-cheer
Is the sergeant who carried the flag.
Proud standard, abide in the glory of old;
Renowned in the ragged arrayl
No people thy beauty can ever behold
But the heroes who bore it away.
They gone-their names we have registere
here,
On the roll of the heroic dead;
But in glory, L fancy, the old battle-cheer
Will be heard when the story is read.
