Personalities.

Keep clear of personalities in genera
conversation. Talk of things, objects
thoughts. The smallest minds occupy
themselves with personalities. Per-
sonalities must sometimes be talked,
because we have to learn and find out
mems characteristics for legitimate OBJ
jects; but it is to be with confidential
persons. Do not needlessly report i'll
of others. There are times when we
are compelled to say, " l do not think
Bouncer is a true and honest man -;
but when there is no need to express
an opinion let poor Bouncer swagger
away. Others will take his measure,
no doubt, and save you the trouble of
Analysing him and instructing them;
and as far as possible dwell on the good
side of human beings. There are fam
lily boards where constant process OF
depreciating, assigning motives, and
cutting up of character goes forward.
They are not pleasant places. One
who is healthy does not wish to dine at
dissecting table. There is evil enough
in man, God knows; but it is not the
mission of every young man or woman
to detail and report of it. Keep the
atmosphere as pure as possible, ana
fragrant with gentleness and charity.

Lay Aside Every Weight.

In the Christian race we are exhorted
to lay aside every weight and the sin
which doth SC easily beset u.s." There
are weights that are not necessarily
sins. There are pursuits which are
lawful, and, rightly used, beneficial, but
they may 30 engross our thought and
occupy our time as to become hind
rance to the progress of our religious
life. Recreation, instead of preserving
it's original meaning and giving US
new vigor for our work, may simply in
dictate pleasure without profit. There
are pursuits which reinvigorate body
and mind, and there are others which
impair our powers and disincline us for
our proper WORK. The one is bene-
diction, but the other is baneful and
will prove weight" and, unless
promptly overcome, q besetting SIM

Don't Be q Pathfinder.

During the late war Abraham Lin
coin was often tormented almost be-
yond endurance by persons who came
to tell him how the war ought to be
conducted. On one occasion, after
listening to a number of these COM
planning advisers, he said: "Gentle-
men, suppose all the property you are
worth was in gold and you had put it
into the hands of Blondin to carry
across the Niagara river on tight rope,
would you shake the cable and keep
shouting to him, 'Blondin, stand up
little straighter! Blondin, stoop little
more! Blondin, go little faster; lean
a little more to the north; bend over
little to the southl' No, gentlemen, you
would hold your breath, as well as your
tongue, and keep your hands off until
he was over. The government is car
rying an immense weight. Untold
treasure is in it's hand. 1t is doing the
very best it can. Do not badger.
Keep silence, and we will get you safely
across" Dear reader, young or old,
learn this lesson, from the above

Just a Mite.

There" said neighbor, pointing
to village carpenter, There is man
who has done more good in this COM
munity than any other person who
ever lived in it. He cannot talk very
much in public, and he does not try.
He is not worth two thousand dollars,
and it is very little he can put down on
subscription papers. But new family
never moves into the village that he
does not find it out and give them q
neighborly welcome and offer them
some services. He is on the lookout to
give strangers seat in his pew at
church. He is always ready to watch
with sick neighbor and look after his
affairs for him. l believe he and his
wife keep house-plants in the winter
mainly that they may be able to send
little bouquets to friends and invalids.
He finds time for pleasant word to
every child he meets. He has genius
for helping folks, and it does me good
to meet him in the street. "--,St. Louis

Blasts from the Rams Horn.

No one who is fit for heaven wants
to go there alone.
SOME very good-looking people are
deformed on the inside.
ONE of the first privileges of every
Christian is the right to live without
worry.
THE true Christian is always trying
to tell the world something God has
told him.

A SONG.

Sing hey for a walk through the held to-day;
For a run ana jump on the cocks Of Lay,
Where the sturdy farmers their sickles WELD
And the dying grasses their perfume yield.
Who can refuse when I've thus appealed?
Sing hoy for the fragrant harvest neld.
Sing hey for a stroll through the woods TO day !;
Where the rabbits and the squirrels with the
shadows play,
Where the fern-fronds tall and the wild-fowers
small ~
And the unurmuring leaves above them all.
Are bright with the colors Of the early fall
And IN. brown quail answers its mates sweet
call.
Sing hey for the woods by the old stone wall.
Sing hey for a climb up the hill to-day
Where the warm brown earth Is replaced by
clay,
OF which we made images long ago.
And cariied them carefully down below,
To bake in the oven INTENDED for dough
They were always thrown out, 10 our inhnite
woeJ
Sing hey up the hill is the way to So
Sing hey for the field and the hill and the
wood.
The horizons sight and the life is good
Whose perfume comes not from q silk sachet,
But from waving and opulent fields OF hay;
whose music 10 not the trumpet g bray
But the morning birds tremulous roundelay;
Where mankind reyerses not night and day;
Where IFS tiresome TO labor and restful to
play.
For the meadows and hilltop and woodland.

CHAPTER III.

Next morning when the faint win
try sunlight looked In at Bannister's
little curtalned window, il found him
lying awake in bed and yawning
drowsily. He glanced at the small
clock on his mantelpiece and saw
that it was nearly ten, and closed his
eyes again with a comfortable sigh.
But just as he did so he heard loud
knox at the street door below, fol-
lowed moment later by the muir
mur OF hurried voices, then sound
O. quick footsteps on the stairs, and
somebody raped ,harply on his door.
"Yes?" he shouted.
bob! Bob"
THAT you, All? Come in"
The door was pushed open and
Maiden came hurrying jim. with a
white, scared face, and a Mortified
look in his eyes
''Oh. Bob" he excla med breath
lessly, Il have news for you. Bad
news. Terrible news"
"Eh? What is it? demanded Bob,
sitting up in bed.
"Why-why," stammered Maiden,
when / reached the studio this
morning, the very first thing saw
as 1 went IN was your Hero"
"Yes?"
"Smashed-smashed Anto atoms"
Bob gave long, low whistle.
Well" ne said, speaking slowly
and thoughtfully, perhaps, after all,
it's tie very best thing that could
have happened to it"
What" shouted Maiden, "are you

"No 1 daresay I've been dream

on our old footing again. The break

Maiden looked at him earnestly for
a moment
Look here, Bob he said hOsrsely
II know what is ia your thoughts
