erroneous. Berry did not go within mile of

Choosing a Calling.
[Harper's Young People.


Find out early what nature designed you to
be-whether a lawyer. doctor, preacher, trader,
or mechanic-and strive assiduously to qualify
yourself for the discharge of the duties of your
calling. Be careful not to mistake a nasty i'm
pulse, shallow temporary liking, for a real
bent OF deep love for vocation, and, on the
other hand when you have pursued any bust
ness for some years, and found that it has many
difficulties, trials. and perplexties of which
you had not dreamed do not hastily abandon
it for another-thus throwing away most of the
knowledge and experience acquired-with the
expectation of finding your pathway in the
latter strewn with roses without any thorns
All callings that are worth pursuing alike
in this-that not one of them is easy. Only
after repeated failures following the most
earnest and persistent efforts to succeed should
a change be made Remember. too. that those

Mccarthy was summoned and instructed to in
spect the Mugs baggage and ascertain if there
were valuables enough to cover the hotel bill.
He proceeded to the room, and found that the
occupants were at breakfast. After hasty ex-
animation of the baggage he turned his atten-

pillow, then beneath the coverings. Suddenly
there was YELL and the chambermaid was
astonished to see the house officer rush into
