after you had told Marie, her dearest
friend, that we were to be married IN

Humph, that girl would cry about
anything; I've known her to cry when

There is a constant hunt going on
for something new to further stimu-

was this craving so apparent as now
when we are closing the nineteenth

"A Happy Weeo Year.

happy New Year!" How many
people realize the meaning of the
words as they go about with this
familiar greeting upon their lips? Il
wish you a happy New Yeari'' Does
it not seem that the wish carries a
blessing with it? And L believe it
does when spoken by friends whose
words are always true and sincere.
For the benefit of those thoughtIess
ones who never read between the lines
let US analyze this significant greeting.
In the first place We wish our friends
happiness, and the next question which
naturally suggests itself is, what CON
stitutes happiness? A little friend of
mine tells me that it is to eat all the
candy he wants and not to go to bed
until he wants to do so. Another
friend of more mature years says that
she would be perfectly happy if she
had all the money she wanted to spend
she liked. Another desires fame
another social position. And SO we
might go on asking and finding out
that almost every one has a different
definition for happiness.
If the young lad were allowed to
follow his own sweet Will and surfeft
himself with sweets and late hours
think the result would be anything but
happy As for wealth, who can blame
anyone for wishing for all that one
cares to spend, and especially a WON
exception rather than the rule. It is
the spending of it which decides the
happiness or unhappiness Of the
possessor. I do not believe that any
one was ever really happy who used
wealth merely to crafty selfish am
billions.
Fame, too, is a good thing to pos
sess, but how many who have gained
| this high pinnacle will tell you that
it brings happiness Social position is
| also something after which there is
much striving Yet when the coveted
place is reached it is SO often found
! to be barren and happiness has no
resting place there Social position
brings heavy responsibilities with it,
and social duties are hard and 1abori-
| Gus without the happy results that
| follow labor in more worthy causes
| 1t seems, then, that there must be
| some special way to happiness not
/ easily found. There is, but it is easy
| enough to be seen by all who care
| to follow its winding way Wiser
heads than mine found out long ago
| that only in trying to make offers
| happy is real happiness ever gained

TIE 3nnuaI Greeting.

"A Happy New Year to you'll" This
is the greeting which will be heard
every side we cross the TIRES
hold of the new year. It has become
a custom to repeat it. In many cases
it has little meaning, and is nothing
more than an empty compliment or an
idle wish. How much do you mean by
it? It is very easy to repeat the form
ula. It is a very simple matter to buy
a New Years caro- and enclose it In
an envelope. But when you send this
greeting, or speak it, do you regard
it pledge promise that you will
do nothing to make the recipient of
it unhappy, and that you will do all
in your power to relieve his anxieties
and bring gladness to his hearth

was anything I could do for him; he
replied Yes but just then the maid
came in with note for him, and he
said he must go at Once-I think he
wished to be alone with his sorrow
Then you came in, and, instead of
sharing my pity for him, you accused
me of flirting with himi''

wasn't it odd that before I left you for
ever, Miss Marie should come in and
tell us that Dora and Dick were en-

Reasonable oayinss.

The new leaf that very seldom gets
turned over is the one in the diary.
Some men claim that they see the
old year out and the new one in by
getting so drunk that they can't see
anything
By New Year the silver plating
wears off many a Christmas present.
A good beginning is half the battle
except in the case of keeping a diary.
The new date is as hard to remem-
Der as the new leaf.
Even though the arctic explorer
never discovers the north pole he de-
serves credit, for he always keeps a

So the proceedings of to- day were supposed to be merely pro forma- About the only certain thing is that Kingman will not get it, but that the honors will fall either upon Phoenix of Tucson. At the hour of going to press it is Tucson's. But the battle is not lost or won.
 The Phoenix democrats were not es- pecially anxious for the convention and would, if left alone, have consented to Kingman, but Hon. J. B.
