Its perfect l answered, though
dumfounded. a shadow of anger

her hands and suddenly showed the re-

Mans Idea of woman's Mind.

What does IA woman think about as n
general rule? According TO u profound
philosopher, to whom we leave the er-
tire responsibility of this statement,
the following are the principal menta.
occupations of woman during her eK-
istence:
When years old she thinks of sweets
and honbons.
At her DOLLS her sole anxiety.
At 10 she dreams night and day of her
little cousin.
At Is she ycarns for a romantic mar
riage
At Il her thoughts are eEgrossed by
her first baby.
At 81 they are transferred to her first
gray hair.
When about 40 her mental balance is
screly tried by her first wrinkles, and
the disagreeable perspective they open
up.
At so she begins to think of her past.
And later on she turns her attention
to the future prospects of her grand
children.-Chicago Tribune.

THE SUNSHlNY WOMAN,
She Is Always Welcomed and Blessed as

the Flowers IN May.
When we come to count over the
qualities that endear our friends to us,
almost all of us think first of cheerfu.
uess, says a writer in the New Orleans
Picayune. Sunshiny men or women,
who bring bright thought or word or
even glad smile with them, are always
welcome as the first flowers in May.
Each heart knoweth its own bitterness,
each soul has its own troubles and tri-
ais and veXations, and so we turn to the
one who can tighten our sadness with
the radiance of a cheerful spirit.
Sunshine of the soul is largely mat
ter of cultivation, for there are few so
fortunate as not to have some grief
The selfish sit down and brood over
their sorrows. They give themselves up
to fits of dependency and moodiness,
and are kind of moral wet blanket on
the pleasure of all with whom they
come in contact. They tell you the:r
sorrows and bcdew you with Their
tears until it seems there must be a
kind of luxury of woe in which they re-
joce.
After all, the cheerful spirit is but an
example of that brave attitude to.
ward life" of which Stever son wrote.
1t is the courageous bearing of inevita.
ole burdens; a determination not to
fret and not to add to the sorrows OF
the world the griefs of ones own heart
y woman who had many sorrows and
heavy burdens to bear, but who was
noted for her cheerful spirits, once sail

to let anyone go from my presence
without happy word or a bright
thought to carry with them. And hap.
piness makes happiness. ! myself am
happier than | would have been had
sat down and bemoaned nv fate"
This gospel of happiness is one that
every woman should lay to heart What
1t means to man to come home at
night to a cheerful wife no one but h"
who has had to fight the hard battle of
life knows. If he is prosper Gus it is an
added joy, but it is in misfortune that
it shines like a star in the darkness. A
complaining wife can kill the last bit
Of hope and courage in a sorely
troubled heart, while n cheerful one
gives new courage to begin the fight

The mother who let's her children
grow up to be moody and dscontented
subject to blues and sulks, is failing in
her first duty. She is handicapping

About the only amusement l had was
working tramps, and they We're scarce.
The hills along the coast from kibi

nothing but little trail that wound
along the sandy beach at the base of
the bluff. Whenever a tramp came
along and begged a meal | would eau
tion him against the dangers of the
beach and warn him that the tide
might catch him most anywhere. Then,
TO insure his safety, / would strap
on him an old life-prcserver from
which | had removed nearly all the
cork and substituted scrap iron. He
would carry that Is miles to Fort
Bragg, and there a friend of mine
would relieve him of it. In a day or

on the back of another tramp. ] don't

tLat scrap iron was carried, but it
was kept on the move the greater part
of year and a half."-San Francisco
