Making the best of things.
1t is a fact that you cannot have things
just as you want them. II you think you
can just try it some time. 1t is therefore
best to take things as easy and as philo-
sophical as you can. In the end you have
| got to be the chief of your own funeral,
and though you may linger few months
or years as the case may be IL makes little
difference in the end. So make the best
| of things, be charitable as your nature
will let you be for the erring, and realize
| once in a while that you do not own the
earth but that on the contrary the earth
owns you.

| edges below. 1t was amusing to hear the
remarks passed, as the pede estrians, es-
| pecially the ladies, took a look at the
| couple. Every one agreed that she was a
| bride, but ell laughed because, in her pas
| toral innocence, she was making such a
| public exhibition of the fact.
| But along the thorougfare they wended
| their way, oblivious OF the attention
which they attracted, happy, mayhap, In
| the little world of which they were but
| the two interested occupants.

When Mrs. Hetty Green OF New York,
who is said to be worth $50, 900 900, en-
tered the Tiff House at Buffalo, the other

ried the dilapidated handbag that has
been her trusty companion for years. She
walked with the aid OF a cane. The room
given her was the cheapest and most Sc
cuded in the hotel.
In Boston when you take a seat in an
electric car everybod seems to be pre-
occupied with their own thoughts.
Nothing disturbs the serenity save the
conductor ringing up the fares or
singing out the name OF the street the car
is approaching.
You get into en- electric car in this city
and you note the difference between n
large city and a small city. Here every
body knows rybody, and 1t Is not at
