Sentiments of Famous Men.

Here ere few wise sayings:
When Peter Cooper was asked at an adj
vanced age how he had accomplished so
much and had preserved his strength of
body and mind so we'll, he said, Il always
find something to keep me busy"
A. Bronson Alcott orystallized a great
truth when he said, ave mount to heaven
mostly on the ruins of our cherished
schemes, finding our failures were sue
cesses. "
Charles Dickens uttered a sentiment
that every young man who desires success
would do well to lay to heart, "The one
serviceable, safe, remunerative quality in
every study and pursuit is the quality of
attention"
John Wesley showed how foolish it is
fer men who hope to win to spend their
time in fretting when he said, 81 dare no
more fret than dare curse and swear"
Sir Walter Raleigh, when asked how he
managed to achieve so many and such di-
verse things in such brief times as he re-
CURED for accomplishment, said, "When
1 have anything to do, I go and do It,"
The everlasting truth that character is
sure to win success was put in concrete
form when William NJ. Evarts said of
famous preacher, 1.-The man behind the
sermon is the secret of John HalPs power"
John Stuart Mill showed how possible
1t is for a man to rise above his environ
ment in these words, "Though character
Is formed by circumstances, our own de-
sires can do much to shape these circum-
stances"

Mrs, Marmont, with these words, stepped

mont's low voice was sad and her slender,
dark clad, listless figure was sad, and her
small, aquiIine beautiful face was sad,
and if there was anything Mr.. Leland dis
liked it was sadness. He was finding
things gloomy enough before Linda en-
tered in this creepy way with this request
for little talk.
"God bless my soul, Linda, said her
parent "I don't want any solemn little
talk now, with the old year dying under
our noses. :"
The poor man threw himself back in his
big leather chair and scrutinized his
daughter resentfully and refiectively.
Mrs Marmont got up from the rug,
where she knelt, ministering to the fire,
and stood staring at the light leaping
flames. IT don't know why people think

LOVES TELEGRAPH.

Amos Amber was poor but fashion
able young man. His clothes were made
without wrlnl 10 by fashionable tailor.
He wore q fashionable Alaska diamond
pin, massive lated chain, and the wrist
bands of his i'm Jnaculate shirt were secured
by pair Of bronze sleeve buttons repre-
senting n skull and pair of crossbones
and being nearly Of the size Of life His
face was fair, bit sorruwful In its express
sion, and not without reason, for his heart
was haunted with the melancholy rccolloc-
tons of u lost love.
The object of his supposed misplaced af-
fections was Ttain Miss Minerva Mud
dleton, who resided with her indulgent
parents In an elegant house on Indiana
avenue. They had met at q church sociable
during tho previous winter She had In
yited him to call at her house. He had ac-
~Gepted the invitation, and an intimacy had
arisen between them that afforded him
many bright promises of future happiness,
but, alas for him, all human hopes arc
vain, and the brightest dreams OF earthly
life are but flee ting. Old Middleton, as
Amos sometimes called his prospective
father-in-law, bad higher aims for his
daughter. When he saw how matters were
going, he suddenly, as he subsequently re-
marked to one Of his neighbors, "put his
foot down" and forbade Amos the hospi-
talities of his house. The lovers were there
fore separated Their interchanges of aflec'
ton were interrupted for season, but not
hoplessly ended.
Immediately adjoining the Middleton
mansion was large boarding house--one
OF those vulgar institutions that will thrust
k.t fptp IN iUhl nor
| hoods. At this habitation Amos immedi'
ately secured an apartment, from the win
dows of which no could obtain frequent
glimpse of tho fair Minerva rs she fitted
from room to room about hor father
house engaged in her various household
duties. Sometimes she would appear a
her window, and they engage in social con
verse by means IF various signs and sig
nails. Yet they still seemed very far from
each other Besides, they were in con
slant fear of being seen.
