Lessons for a Young Mans Life.

Lessons for a Young Mans Life.
Says the Review of Reviews: In the
Young Man for January Prof. John Stuart
Blackie publishes an interesting article
on "reminiscences of his youth. Like lady's
letter. the most important part of it is the
postscript. in which he sets down few of
the rules of conduct which have guided him
through life, and which he has no doubt
may have contributed largely to any praise.
worthy work that he has been able, in the
course of long life. to achieve.
II. Never indulge the notion that you
have any absolute right to choose the sphere
or the circumstances in which you are to
put forth your powers of social action; but
let your daily wisdom of life be in making
good use of the opportunities given you.
III. We live in real, and solid. and a
truthful world. In such world only truth,
in the long run, can hope to prosper. There
fore avoid lies, mere show and sham. and
hollow superfciality of all kinds. which is
at best a painted lie. Let whatever you are
and whatever you do, grow out of firm
root of truth and strong soil of reality.
LII. The nobility of life is work. We
live in working world. The lazy and idle
man does not count in the plan of campaign
My father worketh hitherto, and L work.
Let that text be enough.
Nv. Never forget St. Paurs sentence
Love is the fulfilling of the law This is
the steam of the social machine.
". But the steam requires regulation.
1t is regulated by intelligence and modera-
ton. Healthy action is always balance of
forces. and all extremes are dangerous; the
excess of good thing being often more
dangerous in its social consequences than
the excess of what is radically bad.
wi. Do one thing we'll. BE whole
man. as Chancellor ThurlOw said. To
one thing at one time.' Make clean work
and leave no tags. Allow no delays when
you are at thing; do it. and be done with it.
wi. Avoid miscellaneous reading.
Read nothing that you do not care to re.
member; and remember nothing you do not
mean to use.
Wi. Never desire to appear clever and
make show of your talents before men.
Be honest. loving, Kindly, and sympathetic
in all you say and do. Cleverness will
flow from you naturally, If you have it; and
applause will come to you unsOught from
those who know what to applaud; but the
applause of fools is to be Stunned.
Tx. Above all things avoid fault finding
and habit of criticism. Let your rule in
reference to your social sentiments be sim.
ply this: pray for the bad. pity the weak,
enjoy the good, and reverence both the
great and the small. as playing each his part
aptly in the divine symphony of the uni.

During the present literary famine the members
are urged to promptness in the circulation of the

with it in two nights that the other poor fellow
next on the list may satate his thirst before the
allotted day.
Now that ever accommodating Librarian is
forced (for the purpose Of completing and per.
secting his catalogue) to suspend for a, little
while, the library circulation it is hoped that the
members of the C. L. S. c. will accept the oppor-
tunity thereby afforded, and devote all the time
possible to the answering of the questions in the
membership books so that they all may be ready
to be forwarded to the parent Office not later than
July lst Any aid the Secretary can give in the
way of loaning or exchanging any of the text.
books will be gladly given, by the members con-
veying to him their wants through any of the
night guards.

Only those familiar with the facts

the situation in the upper Kanawha

bullets would be found among the
ballots deposited on the 9Th of No

a certain extent because of the calm
courage and determination of the

powers Of a Town Council.

/ r
Mr.. Bditor:-.It has always been
a question with me whether munich
pal authorities have the power to re-
ouirc the owner OF property abutting
ON a street to lay a pavement of Wit
rified brick, ordinary brick, artificial
stone, crushed stone, cinders. or OF
boards; to build curb, TO plant
a sewer pipe and to pave the street
to the centre in front of the property
with asphalt, rubhle stone, belgian
blocks or what not, and all for the
public use. 1t will be said that the
charter of town gives them the pow
CIR expressly. That may be. / never
read one. ! have read, however, the
constitutions of the United States
and of West Virginia, and they both
say that private property shallnot be
taken for public use without just
compensation. Very likely the char
ter of our town embodies the former
to do these things. But the ques-
ton is has the Legislature the con-
stitutional right to grant such a
power? Does the constitution of the
CldLG III VI JIIG lJllllGu .E1GdlGS SuIlC-
ton it? The usual course of pro-
cceding in cases where an order
of the council to improve in front
of ones property is not oheyed is
to direct the street committee to
do the work and then to go against
the property owner for the amount OF
the cost of the same-to sell the
property if need be-which I would
call taking private property for the
public use without just conpensa-
ton and without the Intervention of
jury. What would be thought OF
an act of the legislature of the State
authorizing the county court to re-
quire all farmers who own lands
abutting on the public road to Nc
Adamize the road and keep it in re-
pair for the public use? Where is
the difference between an act of this
kind and the charter of town with
similar powers? A charter of town
is nothing more than an act of the
Legislature.
Just after the above communities
had been handed in we picked up one
of our Virginia exchanges and came
across an item stating that the SUI
preme court of Virginia has decided
that the laws of that State authoriz,
ing city councils to assess the cost
of public improvements on abutting
property owners is unconstitutional.
The desision has caused consterna,
ton in the Richmond city council,
and wilIaffect municipal governments
very seriously.

The Cause of rheumatism

An acid which exists in sour milk and cider,
called tactic acid, is believed by physicians to
be the cause of Rheumatism Accommodating
in the blood, it attacks the fbrons tissues i'll
the joints. and causes agonzing pains. What
is needed is remedy to ncutralfze the acid,
and to so invigornte the kidneys and liver that
all waste will be carried off. Hoods Sarsapa-
rila is heartily recommended by many whom
it has cured of rheumatism. 1t possesses just
the desired qualities, and SO thoroughly puri-
tics the blood to prevent occurrence of
rheumatic attacks. We suggest trial of
Hoods Sarsaparilla by all who suffer from
rheumatism.
