Conversational slovenIiness.

Conversation also is often marked by
moral slovenliness. Net only is there
that kind Of talk stained with dirt
which some men shamelessly exhibit,
but there are the conversations in which
there is a covert leoseness, a doubleness
Of meaning, q hint of that which may
not be said with manly straightforward
neEs, which has i'll it certain slaxity,
as far as moral rectitude is concerned.
There is that ready knowledge of every
body's misdeeds, as Of their humber
relations, which people dispense, some
with glittering mischief in their eyes,
others with confiding demureness-s's
dreadful, yod knowp'-only it happens
that they do not know. and are only re-
failing lie which they have procured
from some dealer in that infamous ar
ticle, limiting away mans or wom-
ans character and proving that they
have none Of their own.-Good Words

The Early Packet Service.

The first institution of packet services
across the two channels and the North
sea probably dates back to very ancient
times. In the days when England was
a province Of France, and during the
later period when France was province
of England, the need of channel for
regular correspondence must have made
itself irresistibly felt; and even after
the loss Of Calais the long presence of
English troops and English agents in
the Low Countries called for almost as
constant means of communication with
Holland.
The service probably made great
stride in the days of the protectorate; ;
for Secretary Thurloe, who hung the
secrets of all Europe at the protector
girdle, could do SO only by means of
uninterrupted correspondence with his
agents abroad, and, being postmaster
himself, could regulate the packets to
suit his wishes. Still the system was
not extended outside the narrow seas
either during Cromwell's reign OR that
of his successor. The need for such ex-
tension became pressing only through
the growth of our colonial possessions.

SELECTING A VOCATION.


DR.. Parkhursts Wise Counsel to Young
Men In Choosing q Career.
''The young man who says, I have
given my heart to the Lord, and, there
fore, am going to study for the minis
try, misses the entire point" says DR..
Parkhurst in an article on Selecting
Career" in Ladies' Home Journal.
'There is no therefore about it. That
is a pettifogging way of meeting great
situation. quote from a letter that l
received recently from young lawyer
i'll Ohio: In my daily life about the
criminal courts have seen many sad
scene, and at last it has come to that
point that am almost, decided to cast
aside my bright future in law and en-
ter the service Of the Lord. | answered
him that he was writing nonsense
What he meant by the service of the
Lord was the Christian ministry, and
that is no more service of the Lord
than any other reputable calling. It is
not what man does that makes his
service Christian; it is putting his career
under contribution to the public veal,
instead of mortgaging it to his own
preferment, that makes his service
Christian. There is great lot of small
thinking about these matters and well
meaning imbecility that works dam
agingly all around My correspondent
furthermore wrote that he had learned
to distrust the law All the more rea-
son, then, why he should stay in the
law. We cannot improve thing by
standing of and 'distrusting' it, but by
jumping in and converting it. If all the
conservation is put into the ministry
and all the Trains into the other profess
sions. neither the pulpit nor the world
will profit. The sum and substance of
all Of which is that when young man
has come out On to the distinct Chris
tian ground of putting himself under
contribution to the public veal, the Sc
lection of career best suited to him
self and to tho needs Of humanity is
simply d matter OF studying adaptations,
and deciding by what art, trade, bust
ness OF profession he can subserve that
veal the best. -

Flesh

You naturally lose flesh in
the summer and running down
is so easy. You get a little
weaker each day without hard
ly noticing it. There is loss of
appetite, headache, weakness
of the muscles, disturbed sleep,
weakness ofmemory, and these
are the beginning Of nervous
prostration. Iron and tonics
and bitters may afford some
temporary relief, but what you
need is a food for body. brain
and nerves.

y
perience Of thousands has made it an i'll
disputable fact. Consumption is not dis
ease of the lungs. 1t is disease Of the
blood, which ID weak lunged people man.
ifests itself by the formation of tubercles
in the lungs and the wasting away of lung
tissue. The. cure for consumption is simple.
1t consists in the administration of a tpedi.
cine that will assist the lungs in throwing
off tuberculous matter, and that will cleanse
the system SO that this refuse matter will be
replaced by strong, healthy tissues. That
sounds like very simple operation, and
yet consumption bafled tile combined med
ical skill of the whole world for hundreds
of years. Consumption was considered in.
curable until the advent of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. This great
remedy is the most wonderful blood purifier
and strengthener that the world has ever
known. It is the result of years of study
and experiment, by scientific physician
and has beer tested in every way by him
for over 80 years. It has an unbroken
of diseases, because almost all diseases
have their origin and support in iinpurity
and weakness of the blood. AS long as a.
mans blood is rich and pure, he is in no
danger FROM diseases. The blood is the
medium through which food is carried from
the digestive system to all of the tissues of
the body. If it carries impure things, or
an insufficient quantity Of good things,
trouble will ensue. There is nothing about
that so very hard to understand. 1t is per
fectly plain and natural and rational. The
Golden Medical Discovery" puts the di-
gestive system in perfect order, purifes
and enriches the blood and so puts the
whole body into perfect tune

Those women who favor black and
white costumes need not fear to produce
an effect of mourning if they will add a
cluster of colored flowers to the hat. This
touch of brightness changes the character
of the costume without effecting its be-
comingness.
Chemisettes of embroidery or linon are
great aid in varying the costume. They
are particularly effective when formed in
bretelles of ribbon and worn with q wide
corselet belt. The collar is usually of the
same color as the belt.
: Crepe de chine is having great success
It composes many charming costumes, and
is seen in great variety of color and style.
The modification of sleeves slowly but
surely increases. 1t is true that many Co.'S
TUNES of the first elegance have still
sleeves of decided amplitude; but each day
shows an increase Of the number of close
sleeves, which are tight almost to the arm

PRIVATE MARKS ON BICYCLES.
secret signs for Identifying wheels
I'm Case ofThen.


A simple device for concealing
q private mark on ones wheel is
suggested by John ID. Carroll,
chief detective of a wheelmen's
insurance company. Mr.. Carroll's
plan is that every owner of bi-
cycle should have a private mark
upon his wheel, but so concealed
that the closest scrutiny by one
who does not know it will fail to
discover it. Instead of a
mark upon the saddle or sad
die post, where a thief would
naturally look for it, he suggests
that a portion of the enamel,
about one inch square, be scraped
from the frame of the machine.
After all trace of the enamel has
been removed, apply a coating of
grease and with a pointed piece
Of steel, dipped in carbolic acid,
draw the initials or private mark
through the grease. Inc aclu
follows the marking of the steel
point, while the grease keeps it
from spreading.
After allowing the acid to eat
into the tubing the grease can
be rubbed off and the mark or
initial, shows as plainly as if cut
into the steel framework. One
coat of enamel will completely
hide all trace of the mark. Should
any question as to the ownership
Of the wheel arise the owner
could by simply scratching off
the enamel which covered his
mark at once prove his claim
