disturbing features in the situation are
not any less pronounced from day to

BREAKING RESOLUTIONS.
A Custom Popular with Many Men
at the Beginning of Every
Year,

There is a custom among men, as
venerable as it is popular, of making
good resolutions with the advent of
the new year and of faithfully break
ing them before it is week old It
is well to make good resolutions at
any time, and there is no objection
to New Years day as one of the
dates. As a rule, however, says the
Chicago Journal, a man who cannot
keep a good resolution in June will
be no more successful with it in jan
uary but it is wise of him &c make
it on New Years day, if only on the
chance of its keeping him decent a
week. On this occasion, in addition
to making his good resolutions re-
gardng his personal conduct, it
might not be amiss for the confirmed
swearer-off to give thought or two
to his behavior TO his neighbor. To
forbear to lie; to scorn to cheat; to
ing; to forswear the practice of
equivocal business methods; to check
rash temper and cease worrying over
trivial things; to love the truth; to
aid the friendless; to be kind to the
little children; to be tolerant of the
frailties of the weak-these are
some of the ennobling aims.
It is a time to bury dead issues, to
put away, decently and in order, inn
possible hopes and dreams and face
the future with a strong courage
and bright heart. And with the
forward look must come the convic-
ton to every man who keeps his soul
as well as his body clean that there
is a blessing in the fields and the
mountains and the sea, stimulant
in the very sunshine; that the world
in which we live is very beautiful
place.
There can be no happiness in the
world without unselfshness. There
fore. when you wish your friend a
happy new year pray that he may be
unselfsh, and try to do something
for others; for if he is human he
can find happiness in no other way.

Then he fixed the fire, and before
preparing for bed went to the door
and looked out into the night. 1t is
a habit shared by all who live in
lonely places, for there is always
the feeling that some one may be
abroad who needs help.
The snow had ceased falling, and
the stars twinkled overhead, but the
wind still blew in gusts that kept
binding eddies in the frosty air.

helplessness and exhaustion.

tentious because it contained two
rooms instead of one, and each room
had two windows of glass-and you
have the setting of rather interest
ing New Year celebration. Nor was
the inside view Of this sod house at
all disappointing to expectations
fired by tho sight of those real Win
dows of glass, for there was furni-
ture more than the actual needs of
the occupant demanded. To be sure,
it was nearly all of home manufac-
ture, but it was evidently the work
OF one who might have earned liv-
ing as cabinet maker. and some of
it was upholstered.
The owner of this house, Jack Wal
worth by name, sat porting over a
cookbook. lie was merry-eyed
young fellow of %, tall athletic, and
an every way good to look at. Al
though many miles from any human
being, so far as he knew, his hands
were clean and his hair carefully
brushed ~ two characteristics not
very pronounced in the makeup of
individuals in that part of the world,
Tor they were nearly all men, and
they needed the spur of woman's
approval to give them proper re-
gard for their personal appearance.

the leaves of his book, but they do

This was said half whimsicallv and
half sadly, for tomorrow new year
was to begin, and Jack was home
sick. There had been a time when
he was quite sure that the opening
day of this new year would see the
beginning of new life for him-a
life in which Nellie Rogers would be
the central figure. Jack turned TO
