GRAINS OF TRUTH.

Wisdom ana virtue make poor men
rich
| A promise is just debt, which should
always be paid, for honor and honesty
are it's security.
Tne neglect OF the habit Of accuracy
seriously limits mans personal influ-
ence. and also his personal enjoyment.
| Never eve any man more than you are
able to pay, and allow no man to owe
you more than you are able to lose.
Do not all that you can; spend not all
Shat you have; believe not all that you
lear; and tell not all that you know
The man who is in the wrong uses
hard words and soft arguments, while
the man who is the right uses soft words
and hard arguments
The noblest spirits are chose which
turn to heaven not in the hour of sorrow,
but in that Of JOY; like the lark, they
wait for the clouds to dispense, to soar
up into their native element
II there is one habit more than another
that should be cultivated, by him who
would succeed in life. it is punctuality.
If there is one that should be avoided,
it is that of being "behind time
There never vet existed perfect man
--one possessed of that moral excellence
in which there is no haw-who was not
distinguished by simplicity Of character
and lille OF seF-denial.-REv. B.
O'REILLY.
see not step before me
AS tread the days of the year,
But the past is still in Gods keeping,
The future his mercy shall clear;
But what looks dark in the distance
May brighten as it draws near.
Man may realize that the wickedness
of his heart is always exposed to God.
without shudder, but if one little fault
becomes exposed to his neighbor, he is
cast down INTO the bottomless depths Of
despair.
Austin Flint, Nj. D., late professor #
the principles of practice of medicine
and of clinical medicine in the Belle
vue Hospital Medical College, says of
Bright's disease: s'Pain in the loins is
rarely a prominent symptom, and is of
ten wanting. This statement also ap-
plies to tenderness on pressure over
kidneys" 1t is not safe, therefore. to
argue that you have not kidney disease
because you have no local symptoms Of
it. Your only sure plan is to use War
ner's Safe Cure as soon as the most re-
mote symptoms appear.

DR.. NJ. W. Taylor. al English physic-

Two distinguished Catholics of the
Syro- Malabar rite III the East Indies,
the brothers George and Ormisdas, be-
longing to the princely E. m1ly OF Parrai,
were last year created Commentator of
the Order of st. Sylvester by the Sover-
eign Pontih, in recognition Of the GER
vices TO the Church. AS mark Of their
gratitude and, at the same time, to per-
petuate the memory Of the jubilee Of
His Holiness, they erected and endowed
college, to which they have given the
name of Leo XIII. His Holiness has
Just conferred on them the grand cross
Of the same order.
One strong reason for the esteem and
veneration in which the shamrock is
held by the Irish people is that when
preaching the doctrine Of the Trinity to
the pagan Irish, st. Patrick used this
plant, bearing three leaves upon one
stem, as q symbol Of illustration Of the
great mystery. In view of the good
SAINTS association with the shamrock
and with snakes it is worthy OF note
that the Latin writer Pliny, in his ''Nat~
ural History says that serpents are
never seen upon the three leaved plant,
and that it is az antidote to the stings
of snakes and scorpions.

DR.. David D. Stewart declares in
E'The Medical News" OF Philadelphia
that hundreds Of people are annually
sent to their graves by chrome yellow in
pastry. Two years ago g number o
people in Philadelphia were poisoned iii

hen the bakers had stopped using
chrome yellow. 1t seems, however that
hey have not. and DR.. Stewart says
hat many people who are supposed to

tance. It might be we'll for some ona
whose duty it is to find out if any bakers

worth. In the cours6 of | few hours per emptory telegram from her father sum moned Miss Lightfoot home. Miss Oracrof accompanied her back to London. On the following morning this epistle reached George Oracroft:
 Dear Sir :--.I am utterly astonished at the information which have just received from my brother. That you should not merely have persuaded my daughter to en. gage herself to you behind my back, but actually introduced her publicly as your future wife, without even reference to me, seems to me piece of unparalleled |impertinence. It astonishes me the more, inasmuch as had no idea that you could consider yourself in position to keep a wife.
 However, will not waste time in re- crimination. presume you have some in- tention of consulting me in this matter sooner or hter, and wait to hear what yon have to say on the subject. Yours [ faithfully, HAROLD LIGHTFooT. sGreat Scott ]" exclaimed Cracroft, as he finished the letter. .eThis is worse than Papa Jackman. must go over and see Kate about it.
 CHATTER HI. - CONFUSION WORSE CON. He started for town accordingly as soon as he could make the necessary arrange ment. He spent the journey chiefly lh meditating upon MT. Lightfoot's letter.
 He had got Daisy into a very embarrass
 ing position-that was clear. l The Tubworth escapade might pass fol
 a mere harmless joke between themselves Hong as no one outside knew the truth
 but if the facts came to be known and talk ed about Daisy's name would be seriously compromised. That much George saw
 clearly. He saw, too, that Daisy's father
 would look at it in the same light. Wha ] was his duty under the circumstances
 After all, he was very fond of Daisy. if onl!
 in brotherly sort of way. If her fathe insisted, and she consented, how could h'
 refuse to marry her
 He hinted as much to his sister, as h.
 handed her Mir. Lightfoot's letter.
 "No, George. I am sorry to say that
 won't do at all, said Kate, rather ruefully
 for she would gladly have given difteren
 answer.
 "And why ?" asked George, in som
 surprise.
 . 'sIt is rather long story, but will ez plain as briefly as I can. In the first place I1 Daisy has no desire to marry you-wouldn' do so at any price. !"
 ooh, thank you!" interjected George ,f "And why wouldn't she ?" Because, my dear boy, she has the ba taste to prefer somebody else." "Hillyard ?" suggested George, after {. moments pause.
 "Yes, Frank Hillyard. The fact is ths she as good as accepted him twelvemont 7 ago; but, as you know, he has hardly penny to bless himself with-you are millionaire by comparison-and Mir. Ligh 3 foot peremptorily vetoed the engagemer and forbade Frank the house. Dais. however, will not give him up. They hay met from time to time since, and it is ul : derstood between them that she is to wa

 We give our news of the store in the form of a letter, be- cause it lets us say "we" and .s'syou"- saves words. "You" means you who are reading.
 We work for no class or part of our western New England people; we mean you all; we have things for you all, such things as fit your wants; your purses, big and little. The lit tie purses shall be our particu- lar care. ---....-
 It doesn't pay to go forty or fifty miles for every bit of shop ping; we don't mean that. But you can write; why shouldn't you drop us a line whenever you wish you were here.
 This is what we are trying to do: to serve you. Not to get rich in a year. ~..
 It is true-there is scarcely a woman in western New Eng land who shouldn't consider this letter personal one.
 And those who read will be richer than those who save their money.
 We are aiming at nothing Felse but to make our store a good one, g. true one, a trusty one.
 What we care most for is, that it may be judged, not by tradition, not by heresay, not by random guess-by expert ence. We have mostly drop ped the ancient traditions .o1 trade; we do not recognize their binding force. We Aavm1 dropped the Golden Rule. On the other hand we may have found an almost new and profit able use for it; we are ambi- tious; we dream of setting up a better method of business, better than anybody's, better than anybody's thought; we dream of making this store a center of trade reform of west ern New England-wide trade itself; we dream of drawing trade from all over it, as fast as people find it worth their while to come or send to us.
 We recognize one means ot drawing trade and only. one the buyers advantage: The means of advertising are. inf nite.. Some are profitable; some are doubtful. Nothing short ot seeking the buyers advantage affords the requisite business basis for proper advertising ac- cording to our notion.

CdAfIEb 11s-1N AIN AWFUL ElCkAEs In this way it came about that Miss Daisy Lightfoot arrived at Tubworth in the character of George Oracroft' intended wife. She and Miss Cracroft stayed with Mrs. Hicks, the wife of Georges partner and not Mrs. Hicks alone, but all her friends who had an opportunity of observing it; were agreeably struck at the evidence oi mutual attachment afforded by the behav- for of George and his sweetheart. George fetched and carried for the young lady in the approved fashion, dangled d her heels, and gazed at her with fatuouf expression when he thought any one wal watching him. The pair were observed e squeeze one another's hands at every op. portunity, and were perpetually whispering together in corners and behind doors. Al together the performance was kept up with wonderful spirit until the hunt ball, when it was interrupted by contretemps of 6 most embarrassing character.
 The dance was in full swing when Miss Lightfoot and her supposed lover came up hurriedly to where Miss Cracroft happened to be sitting. for the moment by herself.
 Kate" said Daisy, with anxiety on he1 face and dismay in her voice, ''what am to do Uncle Dick is here. He has come over by accident with some friends, and has just been congratnlating George and me on our engagement.
 "Good gracious, how unfortunate r ex. claimed Kate. .'And what dld you, say ?'
 "For the first time on record l did not know what to say. Of course. he put down my silence to maiden bashfulness. But what is to be done He will be sending off his congratulations to papa by the first post"
 "Can't we take him into our confidenee now ?" Suggested Kate.
 "You don't know Uncle Dick, replied Daisy. ''He would be horribly shocked il he knew the truth, and would think it his duty to tell papa at once, which would make matters worse than ever.
 The three conspirators meditated in si- lence for time, and then it was agreed, on the suggestion of Oracroft, that Daisy should explain to her uncle that the en- gagement was a secret for the present, and entreat him to leave her to choose her own time for disclosing it to her fathe. It Is nof so easy, however, to find an opportun- ity for confidential Communication of this kind at public ball.
 Before Miss Lightfoot found the oppor- tunity, her uncle had left. As the next best course. she went home and. wrote an irresistible little note imploring her uncle to secrecy, and George took it to the post before he went to bed. But again fate was unkind. Before the letter reached him Uncle Dick had, or pretended he had, posted off his congratulations to Mi. Light fool, and the mischief was done.
 The result was soon apparent at Tub
