Select a Trade.

Select a clear, useful, honorable
occupation. If there is any doubt
on this point, abandon it at once,
for familiarity with bad business
will make it seem good. Choose a
business that has expansiveness in
it, Some kinds of business 4 Gould
could not make successful, nor
Peabody respectable. Choose an
occupation which will develop you;
which will elevate you; which will
give you a chance self improvement
and promotion You may not make
quite so much money, but you will
be more of a man, and manhood i,
above all riches, oyertops all titles
and character is greater than any
career. If possible avoid occupa-
tions which compel you to work IN
a cramped position, or where you
must work nights and Sundays.
Don't try to Justify yourself on the
ground that somebody must do this
kind of work Let somebody, mot
yourself, take the responsibility
Aside from the right and wrong of
the thing, it is injurious to the
health to work seven days in the
week, to work nights when nature
intended you to sleep or to sleep
days when she intended you should
work.
Many a man has dwarfed his
manhood, cramped his intellect,
crushed his aspiration, blunted his
finer sensibiIities, in some mean,
narrow occupation just because
there was money in it.-Ex.

Popularity.

Men are like songs, some are
catchy and some are not. Person.
al magnetism is a subtle quality in
character that is not very well
understood, aud of which frequent
lY the pOSsesSor seems unconscious.
Some good looking young women
never have any beaus while Others
not 50 good looking haYe the power
to run the boys hog wild. Some
merchants are not popular and if a
man ever gets in his store it is by
mistake. You see lawyers and doc
tors who believe themselves possess
ed of twO-story intellect with sky
lights yet they never have a good
clientele, and people run whole
blocks out of the way to get a
doctor or lawyer that is not top
pling over with intellectual superi
ority. It's funny, isn't it? All
tribes of people have their leaders
and man they instinctiYely go like
Moses to lead them out of the
wilderness, every flock of birds and
wild animals haYe their leaders.
The little matter of personal popu-
larity is one which nature arrauges
and while her doings are sometimes
eccentric We suppose in the final
wind up it will be discovered Old
Nature was onto her job all right.

The Great Dress Reformer Which Accom-
| plished Much In q Short Time.
1t is hardly to be supposed that the dress
reforming spirit Is a product of modern
times, since we find the necessity Of 10 en-
| joined upon women as far back as Bible
times, but for present purposes it is sufii-
Gent to go back TO 40 years ago, when the
women OF this country began TO look tim
IDLY ana tentatiyely-much as the little fish
IN the fable looked at the fly on the hook
toward the mere possibility OF such
changes In the garments they wore as
should conform them, in some degree at
least, to the demands OF beauty or health
or convenience or adequate bodily protec-
ton.
lew women, looking at the matter
quite simply and directly, and conceiving,
therefore, that dress reform was a matter
solely OF individual and private concern,
smut themselves into the privacy of their
homes, shipped and sheared and stitched
lndustrlously, coming forth at last to
shock the gaze of waiting world with
curious hybrid garment, neither male nor
female, lacking the stern practicability OF
inc masculine garb, lacking also all the
sweet appeal of the flowing feminine line.
lacking even that long "petticoat" with.
out which, rs the acute Mr. Pepys OBJ
served, nobody could take them for
women. IL Is not strange that the re-
form received bic then and there, from
which it staggeIer dong unsteadily, up.
held only by the occasional enthusiasm of
businesslike prophet, or rainy day club,
or woman congress-where II crept In
with other more popular and less necessary
reiorms-until about three years ago.
