The Sin of Fretting.

Watch any ordinary coming to-
gether Of people and see how many
minutes it will be before somebody
frets-that is, makes more or
less complaining statement about
something or other, which most
probably every one in the room, or
in the railway carriage, or in the
street it may be, knew before, and
which probably nobody can help.
Why say anything about it? It is
cold, it is hot, it is wet, it is dry;
somebody has broken an appoint
ment, or i'll cooked meal; stupid
ity or bad faith somewhere has
resulted in Observation-Disclosures are
plenty of things to fret about, if
we are weak enough to heed trifes.

Secrets of Their Lives.

Every mans life, no matter how
humble, would furnish an interest
ing book if cleverly written. You
can t always tell by a glance at a
man what his past has been. There
is humble carpenter in town who
was the prize orator at an Eastern
college. Not far from the home
of the writer of this there lives an
ugly decrepit old woman who was
considered in her youth the hand
soonest girl in Kentucky. Poems
were written about her, men went
crazy over her, and duels were
fought by jealous admirers. Yet
she married a worthless man who
got drunk and abused her. The
intensely religious life followed by
another man in town is the result
of remorse over having caused the
death Of comrade a great many
years ago. A woman who was once
presented at court in England is
not admitted to the best society
in Atchison. A highly respect
able citizen sends one thousand
dollars a year away to the con-
science fund at Washington.
Young people are interesting for
what they are, but the older folks
are more interesting for what they
have been, if they could be induced
to tell the story.-Atchison Globe.

True POliteneSS.

of politeness, we find these: Re-
inement of manners, courteous be-
havior, obiging attention, a de-
sire to please others. A desire to
please others is almost universal.
Sometimes it puts us to some
trouble to carry out that desire:
we are cross, we are tired, some
one has stepped on our too SEN
sitive toes; still, we do not wish to
be churls, altogether. The ques-
ton is asked frequently, what has
our boasted civilization done for
us? For instance, in our social
life, has it tended to refinement
of our manners? In general the
answer would be, yes, most surely.
But we have something yet to
learn in that direction, if [ mis-
take not. Do we pay that atten-
ton to the little amenities OF life
that we ought? Don't we leave
something undone that we ought
to do? If the desire to please 9th
ers was a fixed principle of our
lives, instead of the impulse OF the
moment, would we not many times
act in a different way? When we
are one of company gathered to-
gether for an evening OF soclab1l-
ity, would it not be more in ac-
cordance with the above principle
for us to move about among the
other guests, giving a smile and a
greeting to each, than to seat our
selves in corner and draw around
us circle of few congenial spir-
its for a good, jolly time, and ig
more all others? If one is lame
or crippled, Of course allowances
can be made: but if we are only
selfish and { [ say it softly lazy,
what excuse can we have? How
much one warm-hearted, spirited
person can help by moving around
at such gathering, giving cor
dial greeting. How welcome the
outstretched hand, the smiles and
pleasant words, the ''lively quips
and sallies." Such an example is
of much value to those who are
timid and tongue tied, and afraid
to hear their own voices in COM
pany. That other definition, cour-
teous behavior, means the same
thing, only, perhaps, it is not quite
so broad. 1t is polite to speak
few pleasant words of thanks for
the evenings pleasure as we leave
the door Of our hospitable enter
tainers. Do we ever neglect the
little formality Of saying good
night, as we'll as leaving the pleas
ant words unsaid? Doubtless these
small things are left undone more
from lack Of thought than lack
of will The everyday courte-
sizes continually brought into prac-
tice, tend to that refinement OF
manners which is so desirable and
which one so much desires in an
other. Perhaps if we Of the elder
and middle walk in life would
practice these admirable ways
more, a good example would be
set for the younger ones who are
so closely following us and will
soon be filling the places we now
fill. There would be refinement
of manners that would be very
noticeable perhaps. Let us hope
so, and hope that the younger
people may profit by the advan-
tages their elders never had, and
that our community may become
notable as one where the people
have made a study Of what polite
ness or refinement is, and putting
in practice the lessons they have
learned.-S. in Sherburne County
Star-News.

It is simply astonishing how much
annoyance may be found in the
course of every days living, even
Of the simplest, if one only keeps
a sharp lookout on that side Of
things. Even Holy Writ says we
are prone to trouble as sparks to
fly upward. But even to the sparks
flying upward, in the blacklist Of
smoke, there is a blue sky above,
and the less time they waste on the
road, the sooner they will reach it.
Fretting is all time wasted on the
road.-Helen Hunt.

Before we give up Christ for
