A Little Enthusiasm.

1T is such bad form to become enthusi-
astic over anything" said one of those icily
regular, splendidly null women who could
not get up any animation no matter how
hard she might try, and therefore regard
the absence of the power to Ice tlemoustra-
tive rs an indication of superior refinement
OIL their part.
Ones true nature will crop ont some
time, no matter how we try to school it
otherwise. OF course the cool, unchanging
demeanor of a woman of the world helps
her to pass over those embarrassing con-
tretemps that will occur in society. and
which SO upset the novice i'll this great
school, yet how rluch more enjoyment does
the one derive who can genuinely cnthusc
over the little happenings of life that the
calm and gracious hostess fails to recoy-
nize, or If she does unbend as far rs that
altogether fails to appreciate. If we wait
for something truly grand to rouse our
dormant powers of enthusiasm we may
never once be called upon in an entire life
time, and will spend our days in n colorless
existence, absolutely neutral MS regards
the sensations of pain or Joy, but 1--WE only
could. with childish simplicity, enter
into all minor pleasures with the wild en-
thusiasm of youth we would find SO much
to enjoy and so much to appreciate that we
would say to ourselves. what beautiful
world it is.''
When we urge to enthusiasm we by no
means commend the restless energy that
prompts one to continual action. There
can be quite as much enjoyment derived
from the quiet perusal of good book or
the contemplation of glorious sunset ms

elevating ways of passing the timc.-Phils-
