We are so apt, when we realize that
we have made Il mistake, to sit down
and weep owe the spilled milk in
stead of picking up the pail and car
rying it mere carefully through the
rest # the Journey. 1t doesn't do a
bit Of good to fret over the past
worrying never helps in any case
and when one has irret ivably erred
in Judgment the lest plan is to for
get as soon as possible all about it
and set the face toward the future
rather than toward the past. Not
n Of us is perfect and even the
highest type OF manhood or woman
hood is liable INC in a while to prove
that it is only human after all.
Young wives and hOllSeKeepels are
inclined to make mountains out of
mole hills, and in this way keep their
minds in ii state Of torment that rem
ders them unfit to enjoy the good and
beauty OF life that is within the r
reach.
They aim for perfection and are
woefully disappointed when they find
that experience is the only ira ner
that a be relied UPON. Ii the
bread is burned they weep. if the
first dinner party is not ali entire
success they brood sOrrJwfuliy for
days over an incident that is apt To
happen to the best Of us. 1t is suf-
ticient to weep over the really great
trials, bat it is useless to wear ones
self out in unnecessary grieving over
what cannot be helped. Put on a
bright face, laugh instead of cry. keep
up Il brave heart and the world will
become so much more delightful to
live in and you will be mu h pleas
auter to live with.

If you r inviting an informal

every guest of the exact proportions
Of the affair and do not change your

OF those who go, believing in the
assurance that it is a ''small and

their confusion that those better in.

JACK oAwsoN's PILGRIMAGE.

Jack found the weevils in his wheat
Would neither parley nor retreat;
Then said Kansas was a place
Unsuited to the human race.
But twas q most de ightful State

And settles down to raj sing grapes.
When his yearly crop was lost
BY a hard premature frost,

Jack landed confident and proud.
But soon was missing in the crowd;
He mingled in the general swim,
And Gladstone never cal ed on him,
And still the Queen she sat alone,
Nor asked him up to share h'r THRONE.
He mingled in the million route,
And fate refused to sift him out.
