Several Good Sugge stions.

There was the young man who was
heard to assure the elderly man to whom
he was presented that he was very glad,
indeed, to meet him. Now, no doubt he
was, for the elderly men was one of the
distinguished men of his State, and the
youn gster " as really very modest at heart,
and felt that the presentation honored
him. But would it not have been in bet
ter taste to let the kindly assurances come
from the man of years and distinction,
rather than from the untutored youth who
had nothing to offer?
Worse than he is the young fellow who
goes about among his women friends, as
long as he has any, apologizing profusely
for not having called upon them lately.

portance to me whether he ever calls or
not" said Genevieve. seornfully, few

Rounsaville Bros. for an advertisement.
J. w. Rounsavi!le replied: "Why. Grady,
nobody reads your paper; it is no use TO
advertise in it." A happy thought sug-
gested itself to Mr.. Grady. He went TO
his office and wrote out the following ad-
vertisement, which appeared next morning
in the Commercial: Wanted, 30 cats.
Liberal price paid for same Apply to the
Rounsaville Bros" Well, the picture that
presented itself next morning at Rounsa-
ville's corner beggars description. Boys
of all ages and sizes, boys of all tints, from
the fail. haired youth to the sable Ethio-
plan, barefoot boys and ragged boys, bare.
headed boys, freckled boys. town boys and
country boys, boys from all parts of Floyd
county, blocked up the sidewalks, door
ways and street with bags full of cats OF
every description, name and order, house
cats, yard cats, barn cats, church cats, fat
cats and lean cats, honest cats and thievlsh
cats. Well, to make long story short,
the Rounsavilles told Mr. Grady to reserve
column for their advertisement as long
as his paper continued +; and that was just
what Mr.. Grady wanted.

Character.

Every person, young and old, must
build his own character. If we be care
full to build our lives with pure noble
deeds, we will be honored in this life,
aud receive a rich reward in the next but
every dishonest, untruthful word or act
will leave an impression on our character
forever There is great building going
on within us, although we are uncon-
scious of it. 1t is building that must
stand, therefore be sure you lay foun-
dation that will endure. Be sure you are
all the time building upon it. Our minds
are given US, but our characters are not,
we should endeaver to improve our men
tai faculties. If we are all the time i'm
proving our minds we will be certain Of
good character,
Our minds sre no more our characters
than the seeds of the garden are its fruits.
The mind is the garden; the character is
the fruits. Cultivate the powers we'll
and they will make noble character.
Characters can not be made IN day
Great characters are made by many little
acts and efforts. A good character above
all things, and the work of making 1t Is
the grandest work ever accomplished
Character is formed by course of actions,
not actions by character. A person can
have no character before he las had &C
tions. An action, be it ever so great, in
itself ought never to pass for great, If it
be not the effect of good design. Great
actions carry their glory with them.
Characters formed by circumstances
will do for the sport of mirth, but they
are horrible things-they lack all that are
essential for good character. One brave
will to resist evil and so hold fast to good
is worth million Of them. Every one
is bound to aim at the possession of
good character. 1t is well to have high
standard of life whether we be able to
realize it or not.
This truth, sublime in its sim plicity
and powerful in it's beauty, is the first
that youth should learn and the last that
age should forget. The value OF
character is the standard of human prog
gress. The individual, the community :,
the nation tells it's standing, its advance
ments, it's worth, its true wealth and
glory in the eye of God by its estimation
of character.
That man or nation who or which
lightly esteems character is low.
groveling and bsrbarous. He who enters
upon any study, pursuit, amusement,
pleasure, habit or course of life without
considering its effect upon his character,
is not q trusty or an honest man. Just
as a man prizes his character SO is he.
| This is the true standard of man

How to Make Home Happy.

This is q subject of great Importance of
which few people know.
If you want your home happy be happy
and cheerful yourself. If you are cross
and i'll at home and to everybody, you will
cause everybody around you to feel the
same way.
Always have something pleasant and
cheerful to say, and when anyone comes
in feeling tired and lonely it will cheer
them up more than anything.
Have bright smile and pleasant word
for all who are thrown around you.
Learn to be Christian. Be Christian
at home and in everything. If you will
learn to be religious aud live true Christ
ian life you will be happy. You will be
happy in that if nothing else.
What can be happier than Christian
family living at home in perfect peace and
harmony? If one should come around they
would find some member of the family
humming tune, and others talking and
laughing cheerfully together
And what can be more unhappy than
family WHO are constantly quarreling
among themselves2 Always cross word
for every one they come in contact with.
The children always quarreling and fight
ing like heather, and not like children
raised Up in Christian land. There Is
nothing III re disgusting than that.
Nothing is more pleasant than neat
little cottage with its flowers and every
thing nice clean and pleasant around it,
and a nice Christian family occupying it.
So let US strew flowers every where we
go, brighten our homes and make them
happy If we would be happy we must
not allow ourselves to trouble about any
thing
Whatever comes on to disappoint or
annoy you do not dwell on the dark side,
but the bright only. If you will do this
you will form the habit of always dwell
ing on the sunny side and save troubling
and annoying about things.
We can Lessen trouble by the use Of the
will power. If you 60 around in gloomy
thought looking like you did not care for
Yourself or any body else, you will darken
the sunshine all around you; but on the
contrary, If you will always find the bright
side and dwell on that you will be cheer
full, and bring sunshine wherever you 60.
If you do that you will be made happy by
being welcomed by every one you meet.
s. wherever you go, whatever you do,
whoever you meet, always be cheerful.
have bri ght smile and pleasant word for
all. Try TO make yourself and all others
happy.
BE- Christian and live happy life in
this world and prepare to be happJ in the
world to come That should be our chief
study and aim in life.-EHd Jdnes. IN the
Wutchmdu.
