The Secrets of Happy Life.

Next to the art of living Justly and
kindly with our fellows comes the
art OF maintaining II life of happi-
ness and tranquility. For the soul
was made for joy and good cheer.
Life is school; labor and sorrow,
victory and defeat toll together as
teachers. but happiness is lfe's aim
and graduating point. Next to the
duty Of self-denial comes the duty
of delight. What ripeness is t. an
grange, what song is to the lark
what culture and refinement are to
the intellect, that happiness is to the
soul. AS vulgarity and ignorance
betoken a neglected mindy so un-
happiness and misery proclaim the
neglected heart. The normal nature
will keep strong and fresh the
chords that vibrate joy.
Depression and worry take the
nerve out of mans arm, take the
keen edge from his mind, rob life of
its victory. For unhappiness wins
no battles, gloom invents no tool,
Indebtedness writes 30 drama.
Earth's great achievements repre-
sent those whose hearts sang over
the tasks. TO meet storm with
calm, defeat with faith, ingratitude
with charity, is not an easy thing.
Nothing requires so much wisdom,
practice and skill MS learning how to
live habitually above the distem-
peratures of life.

Making Corn Dodgers.

To make corn dodgers, scald one
quart of white cornmeal just enough
to moisten; do not make il too wet.
Beat one egg, and add to it four ia
blespoonfuls of milk; add it to the
cornmeal. This should now be a
thick batter. Drop by spoonfuls on a
creased pan and bake in an oven un-
til a golden brown.-Aprll Ladies'

sickltness IL Form of Sintulness In These
Days.
Happiness begins with health.
The slightest disturbance of nerve
or brain involves dependency. In
deed, depression is the danger bell
that Nature rings when the brain is
overweight. When "a man daily
consumes ten ounces Of blood and
nerve, and daily produces but nine
ounces, Nature uses dependency to
inform him he is on the road to the
hospital or the insane asylum. The
average age of our great statesmen,
merchants, Iurists, artists and in
ventors is siXty-sX years. This
fact tells us that the people have not
yet learned that the first requisite
30 great work is the development of
skill LII carrying the body so as to
maintain the perfect health that
alone makes happiness and creative
work possible. The time mas come
when sickness is form of sinful
ness.
NJ we search out the secrets of a
happy life we shall find that the
sense OF victory begins with the be-
lief that happiness and tranquility
are possible despite untoward con
alti0hs. In the Datural realm plants
are largely influenced by soil and
climate. Wheat grows in black
loam, not in blazing deserts; oranges
and pineapples ripeI in tropic
warmth, not beside artic icebergs.
Yet to the soul it is given to reign
lord over all on er events. Fire can
not burn, nor water smother, nor
blows coerce the unyielding will.
Ihere is no station so low, no
occupation so humble, no neig bor-
Aood so bad, no temptation so severe
out that the soul may ride victorious
over Its misfortunes, like a radiant
star riding high over bog and slough.

THE FIRST LULLABY,

The fire burns low with rosy glow
Across the evening air,
And thei shadows fall on the chamber
wall
Child and Madonna there.
For the first fond time since that
solemn prime
When she passed the gates of death
she sits alone with her child, her own.
Breathing his tiower-soft breath.
And sweeter the tune of her mother
Groom
Than the birds upon the nest,
FOLDING him round with it's tender
sound
AS he lies upon her breast.
1t laps his sleep with a music deem
AS that of the mothering sea,
AS the wind might sing through some
dropping wing
Where only still angels be. 5f.- - !.
And the light of the hearth, and the
hope of the earth,
And the peace of the upper sky.
And heavens own air fill the broodino
prayer
OF that first low lullaby.

Little James found it very diff.

Girls are tired of sleeping in beds.

mOcks swung in their rooms. The

daintily or prettily it is draped or
how expensive and appropriate
must be taken out and in its stea d
soldiers hammock hung up at
night and taken down and tucked
out of sight during the day. Those
who have slept in hammocks say
they are very comfortable; but the
fad Is q strange one. One advan.
tage may lie in the fact that the
bedroom may thus be converted
into slttingroom during the day,
thereby securing for the girl more
room. The fad, it is said, has spread
to the men, which is quite compre-
hensible. A man likes to take his
"chum" and friend to his own room
for quiet smoke and chat. A large
bed fills much space and is in the
way and folding-beds are noU gem
orally favored; so the hammock, ac-
cording to some people, has come to
stay.-Ex.

The Map Corrected.

We are glad to see that the Oregonian
has corrected the map II printed on the
3rd Inst. 81 the proposed county Of
Wheeler, which II does IN the issne re-.
ceiycd last evening. Tie paper states
that the boundaries of the first map
were taken from petition which had
been circulated in portions Of Grant
and Crook but adds that when Mr.. Dom
neIly's bill was introduced very different
lines were named. Both the old map
and corrected one, showing the lines
as set forth In Donnelly's bill, are pab.
Iished, and the latter shows clearly just
how much the proposed measure would
affect this county. The paper adds that
this complication may defeat the whole
project.

The custom Of the times makes
it necessary for men who wish to
succeed in business to advertise,
truthfully remarks an exchange.
People who have become so used
10 advertising that they must read
a great deal about anything before
they consider it worth their at
tention. An article can not be
mentioned once and get buyer.
II must be placed often before the
public before it finds q market.
The quality Of the thing adver-
tised is often judged by the amount
of advertising given it. A theatre
or an opera is well attended only
when it is we'll advertised. Some
times the advertisements are false
and the public are humbugged, but
il is 100 per cent safer to trust
heavy advertising than very little
or none at all. The merchant who
constantly advertises in an ener-
getic way with faith in his adver-
tising is the merchant who succeeds,
The man who advertises heavily
may not succeed, but the man who
advertises none at all, in nine cases
out ten, fails or does very poor
business.

school was described as "the study OF
insects" and for pedagogy these defini-

the last definition was an accomplish
