WIT AND WISDOM.

Fortunes are made by taking oppor-
tunities character is made by making
them.
No man can answer for his own
valor or courage till he has been in
danger. -Rochetoucduld
Great men begin enterprises because
they think them great, and fools be-
cause they think them easy.
The time has been misapplied, de-
voted to mere self-indulgence, to the
qualification of unworthy appetites, il
lost, and tirae lost is not lived.-Johaa
B. cough.
What unthankfulness il is to forget
our consultations and to look upon mat
tiers of grievances; to think so much
upon two or three crosses as to forget a
hundred blessings.
An extravaganza man, who has
nothing else to recommend him but a
false generosity, is often more beloved
than person of much more finished
character, who is defective in this par
Naturalization.
Fear. above all things else, en-
plants decision by vacillation, and
opens the road to error. When one
seeks counsel Of ones fears judgment
ceases to obtrude advice.
Duty is the power which rises with
us in the morning, and goes to rest with
us at night. 1t is co-exIensive with the
act on of our intelligence. 1t is the
shadow which cleaves to us, go where
we will, and which only leaves us when
we leave the light of lie.
The willow which bends to the
tempest often escapes better than the
oak which resists it; and so in great
calalnities it sometimes happens that
light and frivolous spirits recover their
elasticity and presence of mind sooner
than those of loftier character. Sir
Waiter Scott
-True felicity does not consist in
possessing the frail favors of fortune,
but in knowledge and practice of wis
dom. The cultivation of various man.
ners is necessarily attended with pleas
ure as well as profit; the honest man
alone is happy, and it is very absurd to
separate things which are in their ma
ture so closely united as virtue and in
terest.- Socrates.
To be at work, to do things for the
world, to turn the currents Of the
things about us at our will, to make
our existence positive element, even
though it be no bigger than a grain of
sand. in this great system where we
live--that is a new JOY of which the
idle man knows no more than the mole
knows of the sunshine, or the serpent
Of the eagles triumphant fight into the
upper air. The man who knows indeed
what it is to act, to work, cries out:
This, this alone, II to live!"-Phitips

Red Tap in Russia.

How easy it is in Russia to get
high officials signature to any sort of a
document may be illustrated by an an
ecdote that have every reason to be-
lieve IS absolutely true. A ''stola-
nachalnik," or head of bureau, in the
provincial administration of Tobolsk,
while Boosting one day about his power
to shape and direct governmental
action, made wager with another
chinovnik that he could get the Gov
ernor of the province-the late Gov
ernor Lissogorski-to sign manuscript
copy of the Lords Prayer. He wrote
the prayer out in the form of an official
document on sheet of stamped paper,
numbered it, attached the proper seal
to it. and handed it to the Governor
with pile of other papers which re-
CURED signature. He won his wager.
The Governor duly signed the Lords
Prayer. and it was probably as harmless
an official document as ever came out
of his Office. George Kenna's, in
