GARNER THE BEAUTIFUL

Garner The beautiful as you 70:
Wait not for q time or leisure:
The hours Of ton may be long and slow.
And the moments few Of pleasure.
But beauty strays By the common WAYS.
And calls to the dullest being.
Then let not thine ear be deaf to hear.
Or thine > be slow in seeing.
Kind nature calls from her varied hsllz:
II viii give you balm foe sadness;"
Let the sunsets CLEAN and the laugh OF the
stream
awaken thoughts OF gladnsss
II a bird should pour his song by thy door.
Let thy heart respond with singing
The winds and the trees nave harmonies
That may set thy joy-bells ringin.
Pause oft bya flower in fts ieafy bower.
And feast thine eye on its beauty:
a queen hath bliss no rarer than this.
It's thy privilege and duty.
And oh, when the shout OF g child rings
out,
Ind IT'S lace is bright with giedness.
Let 1t kindle the shine Of Joy in thine,
And Danish care and sadnessi
Then gather the beautiful by your way.
It a made for the souls adjoining;
IT'S q darksome path which no radiance
hath,
At noon. at eve. in the morning.
Hard Is the soil where we delve and toll
In the homeiy field of duty,
But the hand Of our king to US doth fling
The shining flowers Of beauty.

How MIKE KELLY CUT THIRD,
First Worked His Famous Trick OF
Runnfns Across the Dia1ncnd-

First Worked HIS Famous Trick OF
Running Across the Diaznond-
In a recent ball game at the polo
grounds q visiting player scored from
second base by not going within a yard
of third. This trick was originated by
the late Mike Kelly when he was o mem
Der of the famous Chicago champions.
The first time he tried it successfully
was in Boston about II years ago.
There were 10000 persons present. and
when the last half of the ninth inning
began the score was tied. Kelly, who
was the first man at the bat. turned to
the crowded grand stand. before TAX
ing his place. and shouted:
-Open the gates and go homel It's
ali oyer!" Kel was guyed unmercifuIiy.
but he merely laughed and cracked out
a safe hit. AS he crossed first base he
fell. and rpIled on the ground in appar>
emit agony.
Its me ankle!r cried the king. and
the Chicago players took of his shoe.
After Is minutes delay Kelly got up
and seemed to be very lame. ThesBos-
ton battery, believing that he could not
run, paid little attention to him. until
suddenly he dashed for second like a
real sprinter and slid around Burdock
in safety.
"Never touched mel" yelled Kelly,
and then all eyes were turned to Capt.
Arson. The latter finally pushed a
slow grounder toward John Morrill,, the
first baseman. and Eugene Van Court,
the umpire, ran down the base line to
see whether Morrill, got to the bag
ahead of Arson. He believed Kelly
would go only asfar as third. so he did
not look at Mike.
The moment the ball was hit by An
son. Kel ran as far as the shcrtstop.
then turned boldly into the infeld and
cut across at least five yards from third.
He reached the base line before the nm
pire turned to see what he VS. doing. |
and fairly flew across the plate in a long
slide with the winning run.
he didn't touch third" screamed
thousands.
"He cut the bag by FIVE yardsir roared
Sam Wise. the Boston shortstop. But
the umpire was helpless. as he hadn't
seen the trick, and so was compelled to
allow the run. The big crowd, at first
enraged at the trick, 1eaped down upon
the field in a threatening manner. But
Kel soon won everybody over by shout
ITS all over! The games won. You
can't get It backi Open the gatesl"
Then there was a great cheer for the
trickiest ball player who ever walked
the diamond. This trick was original
with Kelly and many players have tried
It since.-N. Y. Sun.

Aequlree ~ Those Wbs euaer fzsn
Knas1nerx WreEEs-
A great msny conscientious and ex-
Silent women Of middle age fail into
the frefful habit. They are naturally
of . timid, nervous temperament. and
he adsersities Of the world, through
which every one suffers in a greater or
lesser degree, have made them appre-
hensive for the future. It is very easy
tor such a person to establish the wor-
rying habit. and it is not easy when II is
once established to conquer it. It is .
sery selfish practice, which destroys
more eifectuaIly than almost any other
habit the peace OF mind of those per-
cons who are compelled to dwell with
the fretting one.
It has been repeatedly and trufhfuily
said hat more persons suffer from
imaginary wrongs than real ones, and
it is equally true that women wear out
their nerves and hearts, and finally die
worrying more owe troubles that never
come than over legitimate grief. There
are q vast number Of people in the
world who seem destined by the good
Lord to live like the sparrows. from
day to day, grateful for the food and
shelter of the time, and without pow1r
to look far into the future. The only
rule for such people and the only rule
for every one is to trust the future to
the God who alone controls the future.
Fretting and worrying is a direct dis
obedience of the Christian command
to take nj thought for the morrow"
This clearly means we are to take no
anxious thought. We are to do our
duty day by day, and consider the "eyil
of the day" as it comes, without adding
burdens to the future which will unfit
us for the necessary work which we are
given to do. How many q woman has
brought confusion and misfortune on
herself and family by failure to remem-
Der that the evils of the day are sufi-
Gent for her to consider. Worn out
and heart-broken over prospective
trouble, she has failed to do the work
that was given her to do, and real mis-
fortune followed.
Sympathy is of very little value to q
fretful person. 1t usually increases the
trouble. The only remedy for fretting
lies in the viii of the individual, who
must sternly resolve to trust the prob
lens of the world and of her own life
Heaven. and humbly and quietly do
her work day by day. A little careful
repression of the impulse to look on the
dark side will some time work won
ders on a fretful person.
Sometimes the health is seriously at
fault, for melancholia is recognized as
a disease. In such a case a change of
scene, If possible, and cheerful COM
panions, will often drive away the
shades" Even in such a case
The mind has power at the beginning

every effort should be made to arouse
the sufferer to the necessity of looking
on the bright side of life.-N. Y. Trib-
