BEMoANING THE PAST.

1t is not unusual to meet people who are
always bemoaning the past. There are
many such who spend more energy in
thinking what they ought to have done,
and chiding themselves fer not having done
it, than in thinking what they ought to do,
and planning how to do it.
Life is really too short for this sort OF
thing; there is too much to be achieved in
the present and in the future to justify con-
tinuous dwelling on unimproved opportuni-
ties in the East. It is ALWAYS in order and in
time to turn over q new leaf to begin again,
to make steppng-stones of the sins and
errors and mistakes of the past, remember
ing them only so much and so long as to
learn how to avoid and overcome them IN
the future.
"Oh, if could live my life over again"
says one, "how differently 1 would act"
But you cannot live it over again. The
only thing you can do is to live today
rs we'll as you can, to straighten your lines
of action, and see that they all point up
ward, away from the wrong, toward the
right. Time spent in mere idle regret is
worse than wasted.
The atmosphere of regret is debilitating,
enervating aspbyxiating. 1t should be
avoided by us as we would avoid malarial
atmospheres an those saturated with infec-
ton. A great purpose will lift one out Of
regrets, and failing a great purpose many
smaller ones will accomplish the same end.
In such a world as this there is always
enough affirm atiye, positive good to be done
to oc cupy all ones time and thought, all
ones capacity of doing and willing.-E1-

RELIGIOUS READING.
LOVE IS LIGHT.


My little girl, so brave by day.
Grows timid as the shadows fall
I cannot charm her fears away;
My reasons have no force at all.
She pleads with all her childish might,
That she may have light.
I calm her fears, and stroke her hair;
tell her of the angels near
Of God, whose love is everywhere,
And Christ, to whom each child is dear.
Shs hears, but only clasps me tight,
And begs me for light.
But when I say it cannot be,
And strive to make her understand
Just why, she makes another plea
That will stay and hold her hand.
She whispers, as we kiss good night,
That's better than light"
And thus, content, she falls asleep.
My clasp grows closer on her hand;
Musing: God doth bis wisdom keep
In childish lips. I understand,
That, in that other, darker night,
IT'S love that makes it light.
I, too, have shrunk in childish dread
From that dumb darkaess that doth creep
And thcken round the dying bed,
And, fearful, felt could not sleep
Without light. I understand,
IT'S light to hold Loves hand.

EXPOSING THEMsELYh

The various branches of the liquo>,
have q refreshing way of telling the faae
about one another occasionally. The ND
York Vine and Spirit Gazette quotes a
statement that certain prominent life in
surance company will not insure any lager
beer brewer or employe of brewery, be
cause they die before they reach the age that
insurance companies call the age of e1-
pectancy" And the Gazette adds this re-
mark: =.
This would seem to bear out the assertion
so often heard that in appearance the beer
'rinker may be the picture of health, but IN
reality he is most incapable of resisting dis
ease"
Therefore drink whisky, is, Of course, our
spurious contemporaries inference. Com

THE papers report IN uncommon
number of cases of men who become
suddenly insane and attack their
wives and children with murderous in
tent. The omission of an unmistakable
sign of homicidal mania, whereby the
victim might be secured before disas'
ter occurs, seems to be an oversight Of
Providence. Come to think of it,
though, the sign may be there in each
case, if the unscientifc mind could but
read it.

facts about divorce. During the past
twenty years 25,371 couples sought di-

GOOD COOKING VS.. WHISKY.

Mrs. Sallie Joy White has contributed q
very interesting series of articles 10 Wide-
Atrake, on Cooking in the Public Schools, y,
the conclusion of which is given in recant
number. Referring to results realized from
the experiment in Boston, she says:
If you could see into some of the homes,
and know what amount of comfort has come
to them since the girls have learned how TO-
there Is a moral o ss we'll as = nrsct;cas sidstn
the matter. At least one man has been Isd
to give up his practice of going daily to-
the saloon at eleven o'clock, for the drink Or
whisky to "set him up" by the nice cup d
chocolate and the corn-cake which bis dttfl
daughter gives him for breakfast in place
of the sloppy tea and dry bakers bread which;
he used to have. Tt is much easier to bs
good when one Is comfortably fed than when
one Is put OFF with insufficient and illy-cooked
food - SElr@

THE schoolma'ams of st. Paul not

sewing to the girls under their charge
and the horrible fact came out that
few if any of the teachers could do any
kind of sewing whatever.
