Don't live a single hour Of your life
without doing exactly what is to be
done in It, and going straight through
1t from beginning to end. Work, play
and whatever 1t is, take hold at
once, and finish up squarely; then to
the next thing without letting any mo-
ments drop between. 1t is wonderful
to see how many hours these prompt
people contrive to make In a day; It Is
as II they picked up the moments
which the dawdlers lost. And II ever
you find yourself where you have SO
many things pressing upon you that
you hardly know how to begin let me
tell you a secret: Take hold OF tho very
first one that comes to hand, and you
will find the rest all fall into file and
follow after like a company OF we'll
drilled soldiers; and though work may
be hard to meet when 1t charges In a
squad, It is easily vanquished II you
bring 1t into line. Never put off till
tomorrow what you can do today" is
a good proverb, but don't do what you

HOW HE WAS CURED.

Chiyers lad no definite occupation,
but his nerves were shattered. That
was his occupation.
What do you think is the matter?
says he to Sir Andrew Leech Of VIM
pole street
do you drink tea?" asked the doc
tor, cycling him inquisitorially-" after
noon tear"
Yes" says Chivers, anxiously.
With cream?"
why, yes"
That's the mischief! 1t is the cream
that is wrecking your gastrics, my
friend"
Off goes poor Chivers at once to Sir
Bolus McGorge in Harley street.
Doctor" says he, I'm feeling very
poorly-should you say, now, tea was
bad for me?"
"My dear sir, that depends-take
plenty Of cream with your tea and 1t
will do you no great harm.
Chivers then looks in on the cele-
brated homeopath, Dr. Dodgem Of Well
beck street-quite the rising man on
digestion, you know.
Doctor, pray tell me the truth about
teal"
"Tear says Dodgem, "the most in
sidious Of poisons"
what! With plenty of cream
with or without. Nothing can
make 1t wholesome"
Chivers took to coffee. As he felt no
better he consulted Katterplasm MD,
the family doctor, who asked him
cheerily:
"Injy your fud? Sleep sound?"
Neither" says poor Chiyers.
IF you slept you'd eat. Do you
drink coffee?"
81 do, in preference to tea"
"At night?"
yes"
Just so-it's the coffee keeps you
awake-want of sleep naturally weak
ems the stomach"
So he left off coffee and took cocoa.
Chivers had never smoked, but now
he felt sort Of craving that he could
not allay, and a friend Offering him a
cigarette, tried it, and it seemed to do
him good; but his appetite did not
improve he fancied he slept a little
better; but he couldn't quite decide,
so he called in Dr. No 5, and explained
his sad case.
do you smoker asked the great
specialist, whose acute nose had de-
tected a faint aroma of tobacco while
feeling his pulse.
Eyes; it is bad?" inquired the inva-
lid, timidly.
Bad! Are you aware that Sir Ben
jamin Brodie proved that a few drops
OF the liquid sediment of that noxious
weed would instantly destroy a full
grown cat?"
"But-but," urged Chlvers, I'm not
a full-grown cat"
No, sir, you haven't the vitality of
kitten-give up tobacco,"
Chivers gave it up. But he still felt
very low. He thought he would ask

The Psalms of David.

They have furnished the bridal
hymns, the battle songs, the pilgrim
marches, the penitential prayers, and
the public praises of every nation in
Christendom since Christendom was
born. These psalms have rolled
through the din of every European
battle; they have pealed through the
scream OF the storm in every ocean
highway of the earth. They crossed
the ocean with the Mayflower pilgrims;
they were sung around CromwelTs
camp fires, and his ironsides charged
to their music, while they have filled
the peaceful homes OF our land and OF
Christendom with the voice of suppl
cation and the breath of praise. In
palace halls, by happy hearths. in
squalid rooms. In pauper wards, in
prison cells, in crowded sanctuaries
In lonely wilderness. everywhere these
psalms have uttered our moan OF con-
triton and our song Of triumph, our
fearful complaints and our wrestling,
conquering prayer.

SHIPPED HER GOODS HOME.


American Woman Sends Furniture in
Van All the Way from Germany.
Miss Drake, a Philadelphia woman,
who has for some years been residing
in Weisbaden, Germany, has just re-
turned home, bringing with her lot
OF valuable furniture, which she ship
ped in fashion never previously at
tempted. Miss brakes father was at
one time American minister to Ger
many. During the familys residence
abroad, the young lady, having taste
for the unique in furniture. had by
degrees come into possession of a
great deal of valuable household goods.
Recently she decided to return to her
native city, but was fearful lest some
of her effects should suffer damage in
transit. She hit upon a plan which
was decidedly novel, although some-
what expensive. She hired one of the
largest furniture vans to be had in
Europe, and in it were packed her
household goods under her close and
careful supervision. Six strong horses
drew the van from Wesbaden to Ham
Durg, where the body of the vehicle
was lifted from the axles and deposited
in the hold of the German steamship
Assyria, which was bound for Phila-
delphia. Upon the arrival of the AS
syria at Philadelphia Collector Thorn
as, upon the application of E. Buchey
d Co., the representatives. of MISS
Drake, detailed Customs Inspector Ma
guire to take charge of the vehicle.
The huge box was set upon wheels
once more and six horses drew it to
the South Forty-first street residence.
where it was unloaded under the eve
of the inspector. The van will be sent
back to Hamburg, completing a jour
ney of 5000 miles. Miss Drake is en-
tirely satisfied with the result of her
experiment, her cherished belongings
having been deposited in the Philadel-
phia home without sustaining break
or scratch.

THE BREAD-AND-BU AGE.
Period OF Life When Miss Is Apt to Re
Nuisance.

Nuisance.
One of Byron's objections to the miss
just out of school was that "she SMELL
ed so damnably of bread and butter"
That is a defect easily overcome, which
IS more than can be said of some 9TH
ers. young woman Of uncertain
age was discussing this period of ex-
istence the other evening and thus ex-
pressed herself: Among the things
for which | am truly thankful is the
fact that ! have got beyond that age.
There is no period of her existence,
think, wherein woman appears to less
advantage. 1t is almost impossible
for the average girl of II not to be con-
scious, and she has so little knowledge
OF the world that she is unable to hide
her awkwardness. 1t is amusing al
belt rather pathetic. to see the efforts
OF the poor things to appear natural
and at their ease and to say their little
say without betraying that they have
prepared it beforehand Bread-and-
