No Apology Needed.

In addition to giving the convicted
man term of ten years in prison, the
Judge imposed on him the gratuitous
punishment of listening to long speech
made for the benefit of the reporters,
III which he set forth specifically the
reasons for his action
You needn't of done all that apollo

I was strolling down Princess street in
Edinburgh one morning in April when
l saw Kenneth hurrying towards me
with a face Of distress
"HillO, Kenneth, old man! how are
you?"
Beaver. the very man; for Heavens
sake come down to Musselburgh by the
2:1O this afternoon and make up a
foursome My boss has asked me to get
thrown me over"
who are the other two?"
There's old McQuharity, my boss,
and Farquharson."
"All right, I'll come" I answered
Thanks, old chap, awfully. Good by
till then; must get back to the office"
Kenneth was in the office of McQu-
harity & Auchterlonie. W. S. Auchter-
Ionic was unhappily no more. and Ken
meth had told me when he left Oxford
that he was going into the Office of this
firm, and that he hoped to be taken
into partnership; as yet, however, his
hopes were unfulfilled.
Mr.. McQuharity was an elder of the
kirk, most upright and devout man,
we'll encased in that narrow minded
Puritanism which is not altogether un-
known in Scotland.
He looked with q very favorable eye
on Kenneth, who never swore, nor COM
mittted any of the million follies of
youth, and whose devotion to duty was
beyond all praise.
1 got down to the Waverly station at
| 2 and saw old McQuharity standing be-
side the door of a first -class carriage
/ took off my hat to him, and said: II
believe 1 am to have the pleasure of
playing golf with you this afternoon,
| sir?

WE MEET AND PART.

On Life's diverging paths we meet
Oft those we love the best.
But for a little while to know,
And feel their spirits genial glow
As If at Fate's behest.
And in our memory fingers still
The joys they did impart.
Thus nearest may be far away,
The fairest but the frailest clay
But loved! They never pass away
Some live in every heart.

WHISKY ana potash, l felt that NC
Quharity was ready for my proposition.
He had not spoken to Kenneth during
the whole evening, and for the last hour
had apparently completely forgotten
his presence.
McQuharity's face wore silly smile
as ne vainly tried to hum "a wee drap-
pie OF" We were in the library, alone.
l took up tine air and sang the first
two verses, and McQuharity's smile
broadened into an inane grin as he
beat time with his half-empty tumbler
He was ripe for anything.
Monday is your birthday, Mr.. Nc
Quharity. Let US all go down to Luff-
ness and have day there. The links
are in grand order" I said.
"Yesh, lesh all go down to Luffnesh, -
he murmured.
"All right, that's settled" said, as
calmly as I could.
Kenneth was safe now.
A few minutes afterward McQuhar-
ity rose to go. / had previously mo-
toned to Kenneth to leave the room.
We saw McQuharity into cab.
"Mons'ous fine dinner, Ad'son. Till
Monday
Three hundred and thirteen Moray
Place." cried to the cabby, who looked
me over with contempt and said.
LAS if 1 didna ken Archie McCuhor-
|ity.''
Kenneth came down the steps of rhe
club, and said:
Beaver, what on earth are you UP to
now? He'll never play with me"
oh yes. he will. He forgot you were
there tonight, and when he rem 3n,bers
with his soda water at 8 o'clo.H ~
morrow morning he won't dare to back
out for fear we should think he was
'buffy' tonight"

Love Me Before IDie.

Geo. D. Prentice, the brilliant
wrote many things that
will stand the test tof time, but nothing
worthy of higher place than these
words: !.
Do not keep the alabaster boxes OF
your love and tenderness sealed up
until your friends. are dead. Fill their
lives with sweetness, speak approving,
cheering words while their cara can
hear them aud while their heartcan be
thrilled and made happier by them.
The kind things you mean to say when
they are gone say before they go. The
flowers you mean to send for their cof-
fins, send to brighten and sweeten
their homes before they leave them.
If my friends have alabaster boxes
laid away, full of fragrant perfumes of
sympathy and affection, which they
intend to break over my dead body, I
would bring them out of nv weary
and troubled hours and open them
that I may be refreshed and cheered
by them while I need them. I would
rather have plain coffin without q
flower, funeral without an enlogy
than life without the sweetness ol
love and sympathy. Let US learn to an
noint our friends beforehand fol
their burial. Post portem kindness
does not cheer the burdened spirit
Flowers on the coffin cast no fragranc
backward over the weary way"

each case. Love is just the capacity
of one soul to live its life in relation to
others. Love is the willingness of one
person to find his life in that of others.
IF love grows just rs the physical body
does, by coming into relationship with
it's environment, all environment 9TH
er than that of the natural world must
be found for its growth. This new
environment is needed because we
have already seen that the growth of
love was to Il degree Independent of
the body. In a sense contrary to the
growth of the body-that love was in
Short spiritual growth. This is the
new meaning to be read into that word
"environment" when we make our de-
finition of life for defining love. The
environment of life is that natural
world of things-the environment of
love, the spiritual world of personality.
In the world Of impersonal things
each thing exists apart from every
other thing and becomes a reality only
as it exists apart. In the realm Of
personality the individuals attain
reality only as they come into rela-
ton with other persons. II stone
were conscious it would know itself as
a reality only by being separated from
every other stone in the world. You
and T are persons and know ourselves
as realities only in being in conscious
relation to other persons.
In this conscious relationship there
is the growth of love already spoken
that relating of ones self to some re-
ality which will allow of such an
terpenetration becomes the ground of
though the natural body dies this in
terpenetrarion becomes the ground Of
continued life-the very fabric of i'm
mortality. To be immortal is to be
person, and personality is only attain
ed through love, because only in love
can a person come into spiritual
relationships. Love then becomes the
basis of immortality.
Love for one person here in this
world affords the soul an entrance into
immortal life-we have made the
great passage from death to life when
we have loved even one of the breth-
rem. Out of this grows that richer
relationship to all men, and finally the
richest and deepest of all, conscious
relationship to God, whom this same
apostle has defined as Love. Indeed,
love is all of one piece. In passing
from death to life in the love of breth-
rem, you do so because in one sense
this is the love of God as we'll.
Immortality is attained in the love
of human persons just because through
this human love man relates himself
to God. Your love for those about you
shows your association with God, and
how much you partake of his life. The
deeper you know the life of God the
surer your hope of immortality.
Every one of you born into this
world has the capacity for love, and
is thereby meant for immortality.
Have you allowed this immortal treas
ure within you to lie without use :?
Are you in loving fellowship with men
and laying up thereby treasures in
heaven? Each day you should know
yourself as having attained to such an
increase of love as will at the end
when this mortal shall have reached
the time for Immortality, give you
glorious entrance into that life beyond
where immortality is brought to light
in the unclouded presence of God.

Table Manners For Children.

Table Manners For Children.
Drink from the cup---never from the
saucer. .s.
Teaspoons are left in the saucer, not
in the cup.
Little children only have the napkin
arranged as bib.
Making q noise either in eating
or drinking. is vulgar.
Always cheerfully defer to older reo-
pie and to guests.
Eat slowly, and do not fill the
mouth with large quantities.
Eat the food served, or quietly leave
it on the plate without remark.
Avoid drumming with the fingers or
the feet; it is the height of impolite-
ness.
II in doubt at any time as to what is
proper, follow the example of others OF
more experience.
Never unnecessarily handle the
dishes, or in any other manner exhibit
nervousness or impatience.
Do not feel obliged to "clean up the
plate )" especially do not make a labor
Gus display of doing so.
Do not ask for any particular part of
fowl, or similar dish, unless asked
your preference in that case always
indicate something, and if there be
really no choice, designate the portion
with which the host can most conven-
emily render service. e.

A Bishop Defends Tobacco.

Another stalwart defender of the habit
of smoking is the bishop of Manchester.
He has publicly stated that he has found
tobacco to act useful part in enabling
him to discharge his ministerial duties
When he was roughing it in the wilds Of
Australia. he often smoked pipe with
the pioneers of civilization" whom he
met there, and he found that, as they sat
together putting away, their hearts opened
unto one another as they never would
have done if there had been no smoke to
stir them. m.-Westminster Gazette.
