SOME RAMBLING THOUGHTS.
BY MEMO"

THE IRREVOCABLE PAST is an
awful thought. The deeds we do, like
the casual footprints in the sands of
the Bay of Fundy-footprint of the
struggles for prey or of love-are pre-
served forever. Whatever we have
done remains an indelible mark. The
flood of repentance may soften its
harsh outlines; the ocean-flowers of
Gods goodness may cover it: long
years may. spread over it the gentle
mists of forgetfulness; but the print re-
mains. And just as the curious geo.
logistunearths strange markings and
light, so in the career of each one of us
will ever be found those walking con
sciences of unhappy accusation, who
While occupying themselves with us as
friends are unearthing our fossil deeds
and sad acts and displaying them
to gaping world whose first thought
is to see the hole whence such things
can be digged and to argue to our dam
age that there must be more where
these came from.
*x#
Such is somewhat the experience of
all of us who have erred. We are stab
bed in the houses of our reputed friends,
we are appalled, to find even our sim
pie or sinless foolishness remembered
through decades and revived after times
of utter peace of mind. This is what
causes the heart often to sink within
us.
*x*
The past belongs to record that is
unchangeable. Bear that in mind and
take courage. Each of us has grave
yard the skeletons are there ard some
day perhaps our friends will prove it to
us. But dining with ghosts, sleeping
with them, thinking of them will I'M
nerve the heart, produce visions of un-
real sorrows and utterly ruin the life
so long as the ghosts of gone-bys, keep
us from opening our doors to the hun
CRY duties and deeds that await us out
side our dreary banqeting hall of re-
grets.
~
What we have for our own is THE
LIVING PRESENT, as Longfellow ex-
presses it.
1t is stimulating thought, though
the next step be the future, and the last
the past; yet, through our whole life, we
have our constant little glimpse of time
between two eternities," which TO all
intents and purposes is our own. We
need not stop to discuss Free-will OF
Election. Whether our every action be
fore-ordained or fore-known of God OF
no, practically it is ours to choose. The
father may warn the child that fire will
burn, may even know before he leaves
the room that the child will be burnt
may even wish the child to learn wis.
dom by suffering; but, as far as the
child is concerned, it is his to choose
whether faith or self-will shall have the
mastery. The present is in its passing
moments determining those things al
which we shall later look back. The
past is fixed. The present is ours "a
shape and to mould. Let US get at il
with every fireceness of purpose.

In the controversy now going on
in the ranks of the Citizens Tele-
phone Co., the HERALD will take
no partisan part, but in a spirit of
peace will offer this suggestion. 1t

pie, and should be discussed as such.
The Company is cooperative one,

well as by right aud justice, each
subscriber has voice in its man.
agement; and whatever a majority
of those subscribers say, must be
and ought to be the policy of the
company. In arriving at that decis-
ion, we hope there will be no asper-
sions or unfriendly criticisms, but
that in a business way the matter
will be discussed and determined,
and that whatever is for the best in
terest of the company and its stock
holders, may be done. We would
be sorry to see friends who have
worked together for the public good
so faithfully and tremendously,
so far forget themselves in the heat
of debate as to make any unkind re-
Elections one upon the other.

THERE will be hot time in the
Opera House to-day at the MONDAY

no elimination and recrimination.
The patriotic citizens who have
been fighting the Bell monopoly so
gallantly for two years, should not
so far forget themselves as to
ascribe improper motives to each
other, or use any hard names.
