If we stop TO analyze our love OF
certain places we will find that after
all place has little to do with the Ilki
ing. Its only people that make as
ISOLATION for places, It's people who
make this world delightful or other
wise, and its a serious and striking
fact how much there is Of that "other-
wise" The pleasant people we meet
how few there are of them, We
meet useful people, brilliant people,
learned people, all Of them desirable
in way but serving IN memory only
as mental background for the occa-
sional pleasant people. When we try
to think why certain people are pleas
ant, we cannot fix on certain quail
ity. The person who seems to us to
be making a conscientious effort to be
pleasant is rarely 80, We are apt to
impute motives to eifort-to feel that
it demands some response and there
is never any real pleasure in giving
what is expected as an actual due-be
it liking or be it more material return.
There are certain people who go
through life labeled-pleasant people
some think there must be q lack of
strong assertive dominant character
istics IN the ones who 80 universally |
merit this title. Perhaps this may be
the case at least in one type Of the
pleasant people But there is another |
type with the calm quietness of con-
scious strength and an acute percep-
ton of livable philosophy Of life-one |
who realizes that there is little to be
gained by persistently butting ones
head against stone wall; that each |
suffers to the limit of it's respective
capacity. So this last and best type
of the pleasant person either walks
around the wall or over 1t. Failing
in these he ,forgets there 10 a wall or
hides it behind the foliage Of indul-
gent allowances for the hard fact of
it's being a wall. Its a person then
who is making no effort to seem some
thing but is quietly being something
that in the end generally merits the
term pleasant. Again, ther 9 are those
who on some meetings leave an active
feeling of pleasure in them and at the
next meeting as active feeling of
dislike. The line between an agree
able person and a disagreeable is only
a line and not a wall, and some people
drag foot on either side Of the line
with occasional wandering entirely on
one side or the other. However it is
not these people who we think of as
being pleasant. It's the persons who
are able to give you quiet all-per-
vasive sense of content and enjoyment
amid the jar and fret of every day
life. The persons who, while not in
spring you with belief that you
could die for them yet make much
harder thing possible-viz; That you
could live with them, It's these rare
specimens of humanity that stand out
as really-"p pleasant people,"

STORY OF AN AMERICAN OAK.

Concerning the American oak grow
ing in the imperial gardens at Saint
Petersburg, this story is told: When
Mr.. Dallas was in SAINT Petersburg
as American Minister, he was one day
visited by a tall, awkward American,
who, being requested to state bis bus
mess, Immediately said that he want
ed to see the emperor He was as
sured that obtaining an interview
with the emperor was no easy task,
but not being disposed to take a re-
fusal, he was requested to leave his
name and return in about fortnight,
when his application would probably
be considered and determined. A
week or so later the American Minis,
ter was surprised by visit from the
tall American, and beginning to as
sure his visitor that an interview with
the emperor could not be obtained,
the American responded that he had
already seen the emperor and had
just called in at the embassy for the
purpose of saying good-by, as he was
on his way home. MIR. Dallas was
dumfounded, and inquired into the
particulars, when he found that the
man actually had, by sheer force of
brass, succeeded in passing the guards
at the palace and seeing the emperor.
II gave him present, too" what
was it?" inquired Mr.. Dallas. "An
acorn from Mount Vernon from a tree
that grew over Westinghouse tomb.
The emperor planted it in the garden
with his own hands. l followed him
out and saw him plant It," Strange
as The story was it was true, and the
oak now growing in the imperial
gardens at Saint Petersburg sprung
from the acorn carried thither as a
present to the emperor by the long,
awkward American. -E'Gchange,

Friendship is the affectionate union
of minds in the bonds of kindliness
and benevolence. That only deserves
the name of friendship which is based
on moral principal, and is sustained
by sincerity and goodness. 1t would
seem, that in order to seal friendship,
there should be close intimacy, con-
geniallty Of spirit and kindredness of
affection. There are minds greatly
deficient in the true elements of cohe-
sion, and there are others where sell
fshness so predomiDates as to form
an insepsrable barrier to genuine
friendship. There is much more of
