Geniuses are scarce.

Geniuses are scarce.
Everyday, average men are plenty
You see men every day who can do certain
things fairly well. Occasionally you find
man who does the same kind or rather
the same line of work, but he does IL
better. The everyday, ordinary
man who is satisfied with a little and
hardly gets that, is very numerous, espec-
tally in large cities. There are athousand
orators, bnt only an occasional Ingersoll or
Depew. There are ministers by the score
but few Moodys and an occasional Tai
mage.
And so II goes.
Every man seems TO have little talent,
and OF course it is just rig hit that IL should
be as it is, unless it would be different
SO do not find fault IL you are not as
smart as the other fellow. Just hoe your
row out with the hoe you have. You
may be shoemaker for Is years and then
wish you was a blacksmith. As black
smith you might be a rank failure.
Home decoration is the proper thing.
For very little money you can obtain
Japanese oddities which, when tastefully
arranged, make the home look pleasant.
The bright colors please the eye and re-
lieve the sameness OF the wall. In their
place they are better than pictures.
Madame Taylor, 414 Westminster street,
carries a large stock of japanese goods
especially adapted for decoration. Jap
snese cups and saucers for O'Clock teas,
vases for corners and places where they
will look the best, are TO be found in
numerous quantities. At this emporium.
the only one of the kind In the city, may
also be found those accommodating
screens which come in so handy. Plenty
OF novelties may be found for favors for
whist parties, while the Japanese doll
baby will always be acceptable for the
BOBBY prize. Drop in there as you are |
going by and see for yourself. Remember
the number, Ala Westminster street.
