OF what are you thinking, my little lad with
the honest eyes Of blue,
As you watch the vessels that slowly glide
DER the level ocean fioOrf
Beautiful, graceful, silent as dreams, they pass

And down the slope Of the world they go, 10

They seem to be scattered abroad by chance, to
move at the breezes' viii,
Aimlessly wandering hither and yon, and
melting in distance gray;
But each one moves to purpose firm, and the
wind their sails that IN
Like faithful servants speed them all on their
appointed way.
For each has a rudder, my dear little lad, with
stanch man at the wheel,
And the rudder is never left to itself, but the
viii Of the man is there;
There is never moment, lday or night, that the
vessel doe feel
The force Of the purpose that shapes her course
and the helmsnans watchful care.
Some day you viii launch your ship, my boy,
on life wide, treacherous sea-
Be sure your rudder is wrought Of strength 10
stand the stress Of the gale,
And your hand on the wheel don't let it finch,

THE WOMAN OF FORTY.
A Tribute to the Matured Female by Ono
Who Has studied Her.


Who Has Studied Her.
At forty, ifever the ladies know how
TO make the most of themselves, which
is untrue of the vast majorities in the
twenties. Perhaps at no other age is
the best type of woman more striking
ly beautiful She understands how to
exercise her gifts and charms in most
effective fashion.
The grace of perfect self-possession,
often wanting in young women, is hers,
says the Troy Press. If she was diff
dent awkward and inexperienced, con-
tact with society has removed these inn
projections; if she was gushing, emo
tional affected and too talkative, she
has corrected these faults and is warily
winsome where before she was posi-
lively wearisome. In the normal evo-
luton of taste she has acquired the
rare art of dressing faultlessly and so
avoiding the detracting .infelicities of
earlier years. Her selections of style,
color and material harmonic with her
figure, complexion and the OCCASION
and she doesn't look day over thirty"
The woman of forty is infinitely
more attractive to men than she will be
in later life, when her fine complexion
fades wrinkles leave their year-marlxs
across her brow, silver threads in her
glossy hair, her eyes lose their luster
and her step its sprightliness She
may always be agreeable, but never
again so fascinating.
The woman OF forty! She is dis
tracing, delightful. divine. Her So
ciety is a solace which robs remem-
brance of all remorse and poverty of
all pain The spell of her dark, depth
less eyes wakens intent emotions into
ecstatic life, while the music of her
voice thrills and fills the soul with Joy
unspealable Grace, goodness and
gentleness supplement the rare and
ravishing beauty of face and figure,
and her welcoming smile is precious
prize, beside which wealth and learn
ing and kingdoms are but drosS Lux
uriant nature in the infinite plentitude
of her blessings has bequeathed to
man naught else so Intoxicating and
incompatible as the woman of forty

Toistol's Noble Character.


The Countess Sophia Tolstoi is said
to be one of the most truly feminine
heroes who was ever cast into shadow
by brilliant light close by.
When the count married he brought
his beautiful bride of half his age to
the lonely manor house which he had
just erected on one of his estates and
there she lived for seventeen years
The horrible loneliness of it, especially
in winter, with not q neighbor for
miles, unless one reckon the village at
the park gate, which could not have
furnished anything but human beings,
and never a congenial companion for
her
Needless to say that he never had on
a low bodied gown, never went to the
theater or ball in all her fair young
life, and to the loneliness of the coun-
try must be added the absolute loneli-
ness during the absence of the count,
who had much reading to do in Moscow
for the historical portions of his great
war drama.
When hes got tired of his village
school, of his experiments upon the
infant peasant mind, of things in gem
eral, he could and did go away for
rest.
The countess did not.
