NEW 1OKk, OCT. I6.-Ine eNecutlNe cOm-
mittee this evening at the request of
Mr.. Gibson voted that Washington be
given the preference on the question as
to location of the regatta of '91. The re-
quest was suggested by the successful manage
ment of the games of the a. A. U. on Analostan
Island last Saturday. The regatta was asked
for '91, because in 1872 it would be impolitic to
undertake it, and Chicago has the option for '93.

Golden Thoughts.

The error of the m oment becomes the
the sorrow Of a whole life time.
Life is a beautiful night III which as
some stars 80 down others rise.
A beautiful and chaste woman is the
'erfect workmanship Of the true glory
fangels.
Never fear to bring the sublmest
,lotive to the smallest duty. and the
.ost infinite comfort to the smallest
vuble.
People to live happily with each 9TH
+, must fit in, as 1t were-the proud to
mated with the meek, the irritable
Nth the gentle, and so forth.
Cultivate the mercy that sees in 9th
ers only their good points-the truth
that clings to things as they are not as
represented by others.
One who is never busy can never en-
JOY rest; for it implies a relief from
precious labor, and, if our whole time
,ere spent in amusing ourselves. we
nould find it more wearisome than the
hardest days work.
Cherish your hearts best affections.
Indulge in warm emotions of tilial, pa
yental, fraternal love. Think it not
weakness. Love everything and every
body that is lovely. You cannot make
he cord of love too strong.
Never tell people several faults at
,nce You will profit them nothing,
but discourage them greatly. Rather
get their faults gradually before them,
as you see they have the courage to
bear the sight with advantage.
Unselfshncss and thought for others
characterize the really polite person.
He gets out of his "insular point in
space and looks with the keen eyes of
kindly observation aided by magma
ton at other people, and he endeavors
to treat them as he himself would wish
10 be served. So as we reflect on those
who have this very great charm, we
may consider a few points in which
many people are deficient in it.

Words Of Wisdom.

IT, you want to be happy be thankful
Words with gold in them are never
wasted.
Grumblers and GROWERS have no lift
ing power.
We often pay the most for what we
need the least.
We never really know thing until
we can tell it to others.
The man who is always looking for
mud never sees the sky.
Nobody has ever built house that
time couldn't overthrow.
The man who has high opinion of
himself don't know himself.
The man who lives only for what be
can see is very short sighted.
Look out for the man who is always
boasting Of his own goodness.
If you seek the worlds blessing you
will be sure to get its leprosy.
If we would always succeed, we must
always love. Love meyer fails.
Any fool can ask questions, but 1t
takes a wise man to answer them.
We are al. the time making charac-
ter, whether We are dong anything else
or not.
We are not ignorant because we do
not learn, but because we forget so
much.
TO run on rock ignorantly will
wreck ship Just as surely as to do it
purposely.
1t won't do any good to whitewash
the we'll curb so long as there is poison
IN the water.
The easiest way to bear vour own
troubles Is to try to Tighten those Of
other people.
Some men can do more with jack
knife than others can do with full set
of carpenters tools.
