a woman may hamper a man in his
ambition. It is brave woman, in
deed, who will buckle on the sword
for the battle in the field. or the bat
tie of everyday. life, and bid the man
she loves, whether it is son, brother,
husband or sweetheart, to go forth
and dare and do. Her hands may
tremble and tears dim her eyes, but
her voice will sound brave and steady
as she says: GO and God bless YOU
There are ahundred incidents where
Tom, Dick or Harry have gone away
from the homestown, where, the, good
folk used to shake their heads ana
say they would never amount to
much,' and become men of worth and
Importance. And just as many Toms,
Dicks and Harrys have been sad sad
failures, and would have been much
better off at home. It all depends

They will not venture into the realm
OF uncertainties; therefore, a sensible
%fwoman's opinion may befW orth listen
sstsg to. at least Every one sssof Ass had:
heard some man say: Had only
listened to Molly would not have met
with the losses have" And this
tribute to faithful Mary's judgment
almost compensates the little woman
for the many sacrifices she is making
to ''catch up" in finances. Many
times it would be we'll to listen to
cautious Molly"
The ambitious man who is sure that
the woman folk OF his family have
unlimited faith in what he can ac-
.complish is blessed, and I hope he
properly appreciates his blessing. But
he generally does. and whether he tells
you so or not, you will guess it by the
happiness of his expression when he
wends his way homeward after busy
day.
Opportunities sometimes seek the
man, but more often the man must
seek the opportunities, or, at any rate,
grasp them the moment he sees them
peeping up over his horizon. =.
The girl who loves her brother does
not love him as we'll as she ought
to if she is not willing to give up
some pleasures and comforts il, by so
doing she may help him too rise. A
very charming girl whose brother has
delighted for many years to provide
an attractive home for her, complained
bitterly, not long ago. that Dick was
going to move to a town at the end
Of. no place." because, he said, he
could do we'll there in business way,
and that she had just declared she
would not 80 and bury herself away
from civilization. Poor Dick, 1 say,
for he NO doubt is heavy at heart be-
cause he is about to do something his
sister does not approve. only hope
he will not let his Slove for her stand
between him and possible success. !
