ART OF CONVERSATION.

1t is better to be frankly dull than
pedantic.
One must guard ones self from the
temptation of talking shop" and Of
riding one "hobby."
Whatever sets one apart as a~capi-
tai "T'' should be avoided.
A joke or humorous story is depen-
dent upon its freshness tor apprecia-
tion. Some emotions will not bear
warming over
1t is no longer considered good form
to say word against any one. All
il.-natured criticism is social blunder
Gossip, too, is really going. out of
fashion.
Tue wit is a gift, not an attainment.
Those who use it arlght never yield to
the temptation of saying anything that
can wound another in order to exhibit
their own cleverness. 1t is natural
and spontaneous. He who runs after
wit is apt to catch nonsense"
Talk that has heartiness in it and
the liveliness and sparkle that come
of light-heartedness and innocent gai-
ETY. IS fairly good substitute for
wit.
Offer to each one who speaks the
homage of your undivided attention.
Look people in the face when you talk
of them.
Talk of things, not persons. The
best substitute for wisdom is silence.
1t is no provincialism to say "yes,
sir" ''no, ma'am," to ones equal.
Have convictions of your own. Be
yourself and not mere echo.
Never ask leading questions. We
should show curiosity about the con-
Germs of others only so far as it may
crafty them to tell us.
Draw out your neighbor without
catechizing him. Correct him, if ne
cessary, without contradicting him.
Avoid mannerisms.
Strive to be natural and at ease.
The nervousness that conceals itself
under affected vivacity should be con-
trolled, as should the loud laugh

THE ENGLISlIMAM'S FRANK
TOAST.

A wellknown local preacher who
has just returned from an extended
Western trip tells the following:
Recently in Los Angeles five promi-
nent gentlemen of foreign birth chanc-
ed to meet. One was Russian, one
a Turk, one a Frenchman, one an
American and one an Englishman.
These gentlemen became bosom friends
and finally champagne supper was
proposed, at which each gentleman, to
be in keeping with the times, was to
give toast to his native country, the
one giving the best to be at no ex-
pense for the wine. Here are the
toasts given:
The Russian-"Here's to the stars
and bars of Russia, that were never
pulled down."
The Turk-"Here's to the moons of
Turkey, whose wings were never clip
ped"
The Frenchman-"Here's to the
cock of France, whose feathers were
never picked"
The American-"Here's to the stars
and stripes of America. never trailed
in defeat"
The Englishman-"Here's to the
rampin,' roarin' lion of Great Britain,
that tore down the stars and bars of
Russia, clipped the wings of Turkey,
picked the feathers of the cock of
France and ran like HI from the stars
and stripes of the United States of
America"

THE EASTER DAWN.

NJ ethI ks, with shining of the morning star,
An Angel from the uttermost ether sweeps,
(He of the resurrection) and afar,
Where any SOUL grown listless. waits or weeps,
With trumpet cIearness DER its desert cries,
The single word, ''Arise!"
His feet are shod with light: halo shines
Around His forehead, dazzling pure
His garments with sweet odors laden are,
His glance, like fire, scorches, yet refnes.
He bids thee rise, from depths of unbelief
Wherein is bitterness and woe exceeding,
From the dark places where in angushed grief
Thy wounded spirit lies all spent and bleeding.
From low celled dungeons. poisonous, wherein
Prisoned art thou by power and guilt Of sin.
Know. there can be no bell Of black despair,
But with Almighty tenderness divine,
The gentle Christ years. toward thee even there!
. heart of man!
What painful doubts ard daI sin sorrowsdwel
Within thy tenement abashed in dust
Thy hopes of pity and of pardoning love.
Thy winged thoughts of holy joy and trust.
Why clasp the cross and cover in Calvary's gloom
Fronting the night and weeping at the tomb"
Behold! the lingering clouds already blush,
Faint CLEANS of gold upon the east appear,
And, mid sacred and half tremulous hush,
The Angel Of the Dawn is drawing near!

WHAT'S IN A NAME?
(banSols Plaster is Pains Master J

In the days of wild cat money in the
West, the Ames shovels were used as cur
rency. They were as stable as gold; their
price did not vary cent in twenty years.
The very name of Oliver Ames & Son, was
a synonym for honesty. 1t was current all
over the world.
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is ''good" plaster does
not describe it 1T is the best possible plaster
For every disease in which an external rem
edy is available, Benson's Plaster is used
almost as matter OF course.
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where other modes of treatment are
either exasperatingly slow or have u, good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds. Inn ',ago,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
ETC., are at once benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna
plasters have none of the curative virtues
of Be1son's. More than 5000 physicians
AMI druggists have colnmendel Benson's
Plaster as a remedy in which the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in a
comparative test with other plasters. Ben
sons has received fifty. fire highest a,onrds.
Beware of substitutes and cheap limitations.

MARCH AND THE LION.
)METHING BETTER THAN THE OLD SAW.

The saying about the lion and the
lamb in March often proves false, but
there is another and a better one
which is literally true. When March
comes in and finds you taking Hoods
Sarsaparilla to purify, enrich and vi
talze your blood, you may expect,
when it goes out, that it will leave
you free from that tired feeling and
with none of the boils, pimples and
eruptions which manifest themselves
because of impure blood in the spring.
If you have not already begun taking
Hoods Sarsaparilla tor your spring
medicine, we advise you to begin to-
day. We assure you it will make you
feel better all through the coming
summer.

HAVOC WITH WoRkMEN.
w Men Are so Badly ParboiIed
That Death Will Be a
Relief.

Pittsburg, Dec. 21.-For the third
time within 70 hours, Pittsburg steel
workers have been killed or manned
by terrific explosions. Following on
the heels of the awful disasters at the
Soho furnace Of Jones & Laughlin
on Thursday, and at the Black Dia-
mond steel works yesterday, the city
was shocked this morning by the re-
port of another explosion at Singer
Namick's west end plant of the Cruel
BILE Steel company, IN which seven
were scalded, n badly cut, and 20
or 80 others slightly burned.
At 6:55 o'clock two of the battery
of five boilers used to operate the
sheet mill exploded with terrific force.
Scalding water played havoc among
the go workmen who had started in
for the day, while pieces of the boil
ers caused great destruction to the
mill property. OF the seven men
scalded, two it is stated, will die.
