THE HABIT OF SIGNING.

One of the most depressing of hu-
man beings, as companion, isthe per-
SON that is always signing. The last
sound heard at night, and the first t(s
greet US in the morning, with no en-
of repetition during the day. is tn
long drawn, soblike respiration.
genuine outburst Of grief that wou
spend itself and be over would be f.
less wearing for the one comE
listen to it, just as good stiff I
more easily borne than the wea
that hour after hour moans an
or a pourin rain than COZ
drizzIe. Even though there ma
equate cause for signing, it
better, as rule, to smile-be bav
us and for all with whom we
contact-for the signing is 81
self-indulgence that soon becon
matte, and long after the cauF
ceased to exist the sigher keep
signing from sheer force of habit.
The man that diffuses gladnes5
much truer philanthropist than
scatters gold and silver for his
men to wrangle over.
'sShe always brings sunshilF
her, y was the comment of a d
lady in speaking of young gf
was in the habit of running In
her. And there is nothing else -
bring to the aged that SO helps to lift
the weight of years.
"a merry heart doeth good like
medicine and sunny presence will
carry better cheer into sick-room than
the choicest of fruit and jelly.
Signs are no less contagious than
smiles, and unless a determined effort
is made by some one more eheerfully
disposed, one habitual sigher will in
time demoralize an entire family.
Old people often sigh from physical
weakness, and with such we can be pa
tient. But perhaps if they had begun
in time they might have headed off the
habit, and saved the imposing OF this
tax on the sympathies of their friends.
1t is habit to which old age has Pc
culiar tendency, and it behooves those
of us who have reached life IS meridian
to guard against it with the utmost
care. 1t comes upon us SO stealthily,
and there are seemingly so many things
to make US sigh. We sigh over the
tasks that were once a pastime, and SO
id to our weariness; we look into our
m irrors and sigh for our lost youth for
getting that every sigh helps to silver
the hair and deepen the lwrinkles-for-
getting, too, that we shall presently re-
new our youth. We sit signing over
he mistakes and failures Of the past,
instead of pressing on with fresh cour-
age, remembering that even these
'sshall work together for good;" we
81 gh for the friends that have passed be
yond our ken, unmindful in our self
ishness that they have reao he'd the land
where there is no more signing and
that we shall shortly overtake them.
81 laugh that may not weep,n said
Byron; and for most of Us there are
days when the tears lie so near the sur
{ ace that it would be infinitely easier
to weep than to laugh. But let US
laugh If we can; there is SO much Of
sorrow and signing in the world, and
so many Of our fellow-traveller are so
sorely in need of cheering. Besides, a
radiant heartfelt smile will make the
plainest OF faces beautiful. =" "Harper,s
BaZar " ~ =

HER REASON.


With the calm which comes to 9
housewife whose cares for the day are
over, young Mrs. Torkins was sitting
at her sewing table, while her husband
read the paper.
.'Charlie," said she, 81 wish you

"This isn't anything you'd be inter-

"H0w do you knowPo
because its politics. You don't
care anything about The election"
"That shows how little you know
about my likes and dislikes.n
why, you haven't taken any inter-

"Indeed l have; ever and ever SO
much"

the only opportunity they will ever
have to be happy on earth. One will
grumble and groan over the eueyitable
and you would think she was the only
woman in all the world whI ever had
to bear trials or troubles. While an
other just as poorly off. as much be-
seiged by adverse fate, has q pretty
good time of it on the whole. One is
dismal and the other lives in the sun
shine.
OF course some are born so, but that
is no reason why they should remain
so. 1t is to some extent a matter Of
determination and will, and why should
you not use that strong will Of yours
that sometimes vergss on the stubborn
when it makes everybody uncomforta-
BILE. Yes, why not? Grumbling at
fate never turned up success, and the
people who generally succeed are the
cheerful ones who when knocked over
like tenpin do not wait for some one
to come and pick them up.
Did you ever notice what fretty chill
dren the fretty mother brings into the
worldp Their education on this unhap-
py line has begun before they are born,
and after the little innocents arrive
they have hard time of it, for euch
mothers never have much patience and
their babies are crosser than other
peoples because they have
touched this piece of heavenly clay
with blighting hand and marred its
beauty.
Disobedience comes easy to the child
brought up In an atmosphere Of fret.
While it is the sunny mother who has
lovely children that make all the world
not thus blest coyet her possessions.
Sweetness like crossness is catching.
A sunny wife is joy forever while the
woman with continual drip of discon-
tent is thorn in the flesh that will
wear out the patience and love of the or
dinary man no matter how much be may
fuss and fume also. Women should show
men a better way to take life's discip-
line. And as for the children who are
so unfortunate as to have both parents
OF this take-life-hard-disposition, they
are likely to have poor time of it.

Fate of an African Potentate Who Was
Crushed by British Expedition.
One of the innumerable little wars
that England carries on with savages
has just taken place On the river Niger
in West Africa. 1t concluded with the
eating of a human head by the native
allies of the British, says the New York
Journal.
A chief named Katshella. had built
himself a stronghold on tributary Of
the Niger, from which he made raids
into the territory of the neighboring
king, who was under British protection.
Katshella was of immense size and
fearful appearance. He lived a. life of
utter depravity.
A British expedition Of $50 men was
sent after him, and smashed his strong
bold. Lieut.. Testing, who command
ed the expedition, writes:
1.-THE robber prince, Katshella, an i'm
nense man, was killed just outside
the town, and then the brutal instinct
OF the niggers came out. They cut Off
his head and sent it to the king | was
helping. He, if you please, had il
boiled, and his muntshis (low native fol-
lowers) ate it. The king subsequently
sent the skull back to me, and it was
handed to the doctor for disposal.'
