Hard Work VIII Tell.

One often envies greatness, overlook
ing the hardships and struggles passed
through before the place Of honor haa
been attained. When we read Of the
lives of distinguished men in any de-
partment, we find them almost alwaya
where they are through hard work.
We hear constantly of the great amount
Of labor they could perform. Demos
themes, julius CeSar, Henry w., OF
France, Sir Isaac Newton, Washing
ton, Napoleon and many Others. differ
ent as they were In their intellectual
and moral qualities, were all renowned
rs hard workers We read how many
days they could support the fatigues
of march; how early they rose; how
many hours they spent In tho field, the
cabinet. in the court--in short. how
hard they worked.-Ilarper's Round

Ex.Gov. CORNELL, OF New York,
makes a strong plea for extending
the official term of the president to six
years and making him ineligible for
immediate reelection. His argument
has reference mainly TO the effect Of
political agitation on the business in
terests Of the country. Our campaigns
come so close together, he says, and
involve such serious possibilities Of
changes in legislation affecting flnan-
cial and commercial affairs, that there
Is almost constant disturbance and un-
certainty and our country requires, to
be prosperous, longer periods OF free
dem from political turmoil.

A wRrTER in the Cincinnati Enquirer
offers a somewhat novel suggestion for
saving wear and tear on the eyesight.
He proposes that books and newspa-
pers shall he printed with each alter
nate line reading backwards, so that
when one line is completed the reader
does not have to jump back TO the be-
ginning Of another, but simply drops
his eye and reads backward to the
place OF beginning. It is contcnded by
the writer that matter prepared in this
way facilitates rapid reading and saves
\ great deal OF eye work and that q
few hours practice will enable any
reader TO 60 along with ease.

THE greatest defect OF our system,
the Portland oregonian says, is in the
long interval that exists between the
election of the house of represent a-
tves and the time when they take
their seats in congress. We have the
nbsurdi,y of u former congress sitting
for months in session after new one
has been elected, and perhaps after the
policies Of the one that still sits
have been completely rejected by the
country. This anomaly makes it com.
pletely impossible to carry out the will
ofthe country on any important mat.
ter without tedious and often injurious
DELAY.

Two Baby Beasts That Caused No End Of
Trouble TO Their Guardian.
In the far north, where snow and Ice
cover the ground even In summer, two
little Alaskan bears lived. One day In
June, while their papa and mamma
were away, an Indian hunter found
and took them TO his wigwam down by
lovely bay called Yakutat Pretty
soon big warship sailed into the bay
and anchored. The hunter knew sail.
ors liked little bears, so he took them
In his canoe and padded out toathe
ship. The sailors were glad to sec
these baby bears, and gave the Indian
some tobacco and took the little ones
for pets The bears were glad now,
because they had all the bread and
milk they could eat One day an
officer gave them saucer Of honey,
for he knew all bears love honey. Then
you should have seen those naughty
things They quarreled and scratched
each other till they had to be put TO
bed without supper After that each
had to have saucer OF honey for him.
self to stop their quarrcling.
BY and by they grew strong and
climbed the rope ladders with the sail
ors and didn't get bit seasicl. One
day Betsy, as one little bear was called,
fell of ladder and hurt her hip.
Everybody was sorry. So the surgeons
were called, but when they tried to fix
her hip she bit them and they had to
put her to sleep with medicine. Then
they doctored her hip SO she could
walk again. Now these two little
bears were very funny and cute and
cunning, but they couldn't keep out Of
mischief. One night the big chest
where all the ships paints were kept
was left open and these naughty little
ones climbed in and played with the
paints. In the morning, oh, what q
sight! One little bear was red and tho
other very green. They were dark
brown before this. They were very
sick, too, because tLey had eaten some
Of the paint. They made everyone
laugh, for they looked so funny, but
the captain was angry, and had them
sold 10 a circus. To-day, instead Of
being sailor bears and going around
the world they are made cross by bad
boys poking sticks ut them In their
cage in the circus.
II they had not been naughty and
such thing would never
have happened to them, but instead
they would still be living on board tho
