MlCha6l Angelo wore. over MS lOTe-
head, fastened to his artists cap. a
lighted candle, in order that no
shadow of himself might fall upon
his work. 1t was beautiful habit,
and one that taught an eloquent les
son, for the shadows that darken our
lives,-hOw often they come from
ourselves While some people seem
to radiate sunshine, Others enshroud
themselves in gloom.
One man will turn the most UNI
eventful life into poetry, while an
other will change the most poetic
surroundings into the dullest of
prose. The man who puts his soul
into his task, however lOwly that
work may be, transmutes labor into
pastime.
Life is a fine art. Character, con-
scientiousness, will transform dis
cord and deformity into harmony
and beauty.
We have been in the houses of mil
lionaires whose fOrbidding GOODNESS
chilled us to the bone; where there
was no fitness of things, no sense of
proportion; where nothing appealed
to the higher life, or touched the
finer sensibilities; where everything
savOred of money and smelled Of the
shop; where suddenly acquired
wealth had brought nothing of finer
culture to uncOuth and uncultured
minds; where everything seemed to
partake Of the vulgar dollar. We
have been in the homes of poverty
where an air of refinement and sweet
rnStnA likn hnnnHintinn
upon every member of the family,
and clung to every piece of furni'
ture. High thinking went with the
plain living; an ideal simplicity
perv AIDED the very atmosphere, and
the soul rejOiced in the absence OF
all cOnstraint.
The discomfort with the work you
are compelled to do, comes from
your doing it in the spirit of d
drudge. Do your work with Ideally
of an artist, with perception of the
beauty which inheTeS in all honest
toll, and the drudgery will become
delight. 1t is the spirit in which we
work, not the work itself, which
lends dignity to labor.
Every mans soul is gallery: he
can hang it with works Of art, ht
can frescO it with faithfulness, anC
decorate it with beauty, or he car
mar the walls with halle done anC
botched work; he can hang it will
daubs, instead Of beautiful pictures
he can blot and bespatter it, he car
stain and spoil it. He cannot leave
the walls blank, for if he is idle they
will grow dingy and grimy, mOldy
and forbidding; idleness will smite
cOrrode and blast. Something he
must do, and every touch of the
brush is indelible. He canno
change or erase it, and begin again
Every Indifferent or careless stroke
will remain there forever, to re
proach him for his folly.
He can never get out of this gal
lery. 1t must be his home forever
through time and eternity. He cal
make it place of beauty, whicl
shall inspire and elevate, which will
be aconstant uplifter to his though
and purpose, and which will leaC
him into higher life of beauty ant
holiness; or be can ill 1t with hide
Gus images which will haunt his dis
appointed soul through eternity.
Success.

DIR. JoHNsoN's PALFREY.
When He Wrote About EatinE it He
Did Not Mean That He DIneA
on Horse.

DR.. johnson in his journal mentions
the interesting fact that he had on, .
certain day had "paifrey for dinner"
says Notes and Queries. Now. these
words have caused not a little trouble
10 the critics. and for this reason. that
they know o what palfrey really is.
1t has been suggested that palfrey is a
clerical error made by the doctor him
self tor pastry. BUT the doctor wrote so
legibIy. and there is SO much difference
between the words palfrey and pastry
that this position is not at all tenable.
Palfrey is defined in Johnson's cele-
brated dictionary as "a small horse At
for ladies.".and some have thought that
the doctor .lwhose feats as a,trencher-
a were notorous) may have broken
a record on the day in question and dis
posed OF q small horse. All these and
other ~coujectures are wrong. and we
will proceed to give the correct. expla-
nation. . -. .- E... -
T., The word palfrey (sometimes pam
frey by. the interchange. of ] and MI is
still in use among the, rustics of, Scot
land and the north of Ireland. and
means young cabbages when they first
come to table in the. spring. Such cab
bages have not begun to "close."; or be-
icome SOLID in the center. They are gen
orally spoken Of as "early,pamfrey'' and
are considered a.luxury. DR.. johnson
probably picked up, the word from his
old friend Boswell OF from some other
Scotch acquaintance.

this magazine, the Spanish nobility at!

Nearly everyone knows that the rule
on railway trains and other public con-
,7eyances which provides for the carry

and OF charging half fares for those be-,
tween the ages of five and twelve. often,
:esults in statements from the parents
which are as trying to; a, normal. con-
science as the afidavits made by many,
tourists regarding dutiable goods

sometimes these answers result in
unpleasant controversies between on,
iuctors and passengers, but usually.
our national tact and good nature help
along the adjustment without, undue
friction. In parts of Europe they have
L way of fixing this matter so that no
one has cause to quarrel about it.
Instead of going by a ,child's age. as
to what rate Of fare 1t shall pay. they go
by size. The collector is provided with
| five-foot rule. and he rates The chill
lren by this. Any child under "a inches
n height travels free. while. those who
measure between "a inches and 81
inches pay half fare. All who meas

pay full fare. &c.. d.
