we Two.


We two make home Of any place we go;
We two find Joy in any kind Of weather;
Or II the earth is clothed In bloom or snow.
II summer days invite or bleak winds blow,
What matters It, II We two are togetherG
We two. we two. We mako our world. our
weather.
We two make banquets Of the plainest fare;
In every cup we find the thrill Of pleasure;
We hide with wreaths the furrowed brow Of care
And win to smiles the set lips Of despair.
For US life always moves with lifting measure;
We two, We two. We make our Joy. our pleasure.
We two find youth renewed with every dawn;
Each day holds something Of an unknown glory.
We waste no thought on grief OF pleasure gone;
Tricked out like hope, time leads Us on and on
And thruns upon his harp new song or story;
We two. We two We 6nd the paths Of glory.
We two make heaven here on this little Garth;
We do not need to wait for realms eternal;
We know the Of tears. know sorrows worth.
and pain for US Is always loves rebirth.
Our paths lead closely by the paths sapernsl;
We two, We two we live ia love eternal

Hhw to Hurry.
Monthly World.

Monthly World.
Reader, do you know how to hurry +?
This is hurrying age, and you ought
to keep up with it Ii you think it
worth while. Here are a few sugges-
tons that may help you:
Do nothing that you don't have to
do.
Cut out the non-essentials.
Don't hesitate. Begin at once.
When you are through stop, and be-
gin on tho next thing.
Don't be too particular what part OF
the job you begin with. Other things
being equal, do what's under your
hand first and the next nearest thing
next.
DON. pause between jobs.
Don't go from one job to another
until the first is done. Do one thing
at time. It takes time to change
your mind.
A>O yOAA UA4AAAAAA WA110 yOu 10 dO6s
ing. And think about the work in
hand.
II you have assistants, use them. At
first do only what they can't do, and
afterward help them out.
Do nothing twice. This makes 1t
necessary to do It right the first time.
Don't lay down one tool except to
take up another.
Beware OF looking ont of the window
That way distraction lies.
Don't put things Off Do them
when you think of them.
If you'll follow these rules and few
more that you can make yourself, you
will be able to reduce your work hours
about one hall you won't think you're
hurrying you won't be bored and worn
out by your work and when it's over
you can &C and romp with the baby
with an approving conscience and a
mind at rest.

The Value Literature.
Charity and Children.

Charity and Children.
The value of literature must be de
termlned, in part at least, by the i'm
preston 1t makes upon the mind Of
the reading public. It is patent to
every one that every new book must
run the gauntlet of public opinion and
either gain or lose favor by tho transac
ton. In tact, it may be remarked
that the real value of literature Is some
times vitality connected with its com.
mercia! value, or its popularity. The
value OF thing can never be greater
than its utility.
Some books have been greater than
popular opinion, and by Gliding their
time" have become exceedingly priced
for their literary merit.
In these days of "yellow journalism
it is positively refreshing to read good
wholesome literature. It is like turn.

Literature that proceeds from purs
minds is surcharged with blessings t.
the world at large, the foul and tetid
stream of "yellow journalism ls but
a system of mental sewerage to besl
off the garbage of low, bestlal minds
The more this latter is Stunned the
higher the type of our civilization
will be.
Some argue that certain literature is
cheap. That is sadly true, and the
cheapness does not merely include the
price al which it is offered to the pub.

School Room Disturbers.

Arachel, in The Exponent. -.
Bows do many things, In school, with
q view solely to their own or to tneir
scboolmates' amusement. And, IN
doing these things, they do not con-
slider that they are disturbers OF the
neace and annoy the teacher.
remember many Instances OF sucn
disturbances when quiet was secured
by calling the delipquent's attention
to the fact that he was interfering serl-
ousiy with the business OF the day.
But the teachers tone of voice, when
speaking of the matter, should always
be one of kindly remonstrance, ana
never one of harsh criticism. And,
above all, he should not condemn the
act as one done deliberately with view
of interfering with the quiet ct the
room. A boy, harshly and un]ustiy
accused, feels deeply the injustice done
him, and his regard for his teacher is
sadly weakened, to say the least.
But there are, nearly always, among
the pupils, some who take delight IN
doing that which they know will dis
please the teacher. But, even in this
number, some may be found whose
idea of what teacher is for, Is entire
ly wrong one. Very probably. his
former teacher may have been a man
who took it for granted that all child
rem were rascals and treated them &C
cordin ely. This man may have been
ana st probably was-his first teach
er. And it will take years for that
boy to come to correct conclusion
concerning his instructor, though a
pupil of his all that time.
First impressions are powerful.
Aud happy Is that lad whose first
teacher wae bind, considerate and pa
tient. Ttis YVES, fortunately, my exper-
ience-and I have always had the
highest regard for all my teachers
though MORALLY afraid OF one of them.
Kindness goes a long ways with
children. Not that I mean that ali
pupils can be conquered by it; for
some OF them are bad-bad to the bone.
When nothing can be done for those
of this class, put them down as peni-
Tertiary convicts and have them re-
moved from school. I get tired of be-
ing judge, Jury, witness, sheriff, coun-
sci for the prosecution, crier Of the
court, jailer and warden. The boy
ought to be at the pillow handles, there
to remain all the days of his mortal
life. But be sure that he is really bad,
before he is condemned.
These thoughts have jotted down
for the benefit of any young teache RS
who may be readers of the THE ExPoN-
ENT. And please remember, my young
friends, that, by what I have said, l
do not mean that am a Solomon, by
any means. And here confess that

To the Voters of Carroll County.

Two years ago, you honored me by reelection to the office of Rep resentatiye of Carroll county. My gratitude and appreciation for tn at mark of your confidence, tried to show by faithful and painstaking d discharge of my duty, us l under stood it. I am before you now asking a third election to this honorable position, and in doing so, I can only say as l have done be- fore, that 1 believe my experience and acquaintance with public men ard affairs will more fully enable me to do you efficient service than before. Added to this is an ambi- ton of personal nature: an ambi. tion, if elected, 10 serve as Speak CT of the next House of Representa- tlves. do not urge this as a reason for asking your support, nor can any thoughtful citizen vote for me for that reason alone. l sub init my candidacy to you solely upon the question ot fitness; whether or not my acquaintance with the needs of my people at home, and of those ot other parts of the state, is such as will enable me to serve your best interests Tn the capacity of Representative. 1 do not expect 10 be able to serve you without making mistakes; the record l have arl eady made is not without them, but such as they are, they were ot the head and not the heart. l tried to do my duty as faithfully as 1 knew how, and to make you an officer such that other portions of the state would respect the county from which l came. Wheth- CT or not 1 have done this. you alone can judge. l have tried to redeem every promise ever made you and to make record of which no citizen of my county need be ashamed.
 In the period between now and the primaries, I hope to see most ot you In person, aud to discuss my position upon public matters with you, as only by meeting and talk ing with you can become fully acquainted with your views upon these questions that are before the state for solution. To the people Of Carroll county who have twice honored me with their representa- ton, l feel more greatful than l can express, and assuring you that ifonce agaln honored by your confidence that l shall do my at sosl to merit it, and to be true to the trust confded to me, 1 am,
 Yours for Carroll County,
