To tho YNnnR.

While the opening of the New Year II
significant season for persons Of all
ages, 1t is especially so to the young
and those In early maturity. There Is
so much ahead Of the youngsters; SC
much for them to look frward to, to
hope for achieve; SO much that will
help them to make their lives worth
living, and to make the world the bet
ter for their having lived In 1t.
Welcome the new year. Welcome
its work, its cares, Its responsibilities
its trials, crosses, losses, sorrows and
bereavements. Welcome Its work
because II is only by work that We
achieve successes and make ourselves
strong for the tolls and tasks that are
to come. Welcome It's cares, for they
are the worlds educators, developers
and teachers, and they lead us into
those ways Of prudence, thoughtful
ness and moderation which are thu
forerunners Of prosperity and plenty

Hopes OF tho Future.

With the coming Of the New Year
all our hopes Of future good for our
selves and for humanity at large re-
receive a new impulse and an accession
Of power II we are alive TO the wide
extension Of knowledge, the conquest
Of the material world the lmmlnence
Of new and important discoveries and
changes which shall make the posslbll-
tiles OF life more interesting and beau-
tlful, we cannot but rejoice that we
are born into this wonderful epoch
Tennyson's poem written In the flush
Of young manhood, voiced the scien1
tinc fact in eloquence that can never
be forgotten, but the thoughts Of men
are widened by the process Of the
suns. 1t Is truly to the thoughts Of men
that we owe all the triumphs of civil
izaton, the trlumphs Of religion, art,
industry and science, as in the last re-
sort all that is and all that we hope
for resides in the thoughts OF men and
in the feelings and emotions which
give birth to these thoughts, and be-
tween which there is such a constant
interaction

Balancing Our Books.

When the year is ended and the
final summing up Of accounts Is finish
ed, 1t Is comforting to look back and
to be able to say in all sincerity, that
we have done the best we could for our
selves and for those about lis. It Is
more than comforting to see that we
have gained something, that our ef-
forts have been crowned with success,
and that we are by this advance
ment enabled to score a victory, even
though 1t may be trining, over ad-
verse circumstances. 1t encourages us
to redouble our efforts to make bet
ter showing for the years to come, to
so order our affairs that this season s
gain will be but the beginning Of bet
ter things, and that the great and
grand fabric of our future may rise,
ever increasing, ever more and more
beautiful, and end in noble, manly,
womanly, Christian, symmetrical char.
acter that will make Its possessor
known and honored Of all men.

He turned to the story Of Evangellne

heroic character, The reading soothed
him and he fell asleep.
The clocks were striking the twelfth
stroke Of midnight when he awoke
He barely opened his eyes, then closed
them again, and listened to the joyous

He did not finish the sentence, but

Green park as a sort Of benediction
on the rapidly dying year. The roar
of the great city without was not lack

noise Of merry revelers In PiccadIlly
completed n strange yet fascinating

street came three young men singing
that old Southern song, Use gwine

BOYS AND HENS.
Several Surprises About the Making ot
 Kid Gloves.

Kid Gloves.
 Barefooted boys and hens form a curious partnership in the making of a pair of fine gloves. Thousands of dozens of hens eggs are used in cur Ing the hides, and thousands of boys are employed to work the skins in clear water by treading on them for several hours, says the Philadelphia Record. When a woman buys a pair of kid gloves she speaks of her pur- chase as kids If the clerk who sold her the kid gloves knew the secrets ot the gloyemaking business he might surprise his fair customer by telIing her Chat those beautiful, soft. smooth fitting "kid' gloves came from the stomach and shoulders of the 3-weelzs- old colt, whose neck was slit or the plains Of Russia, and whose tender hide was shipped, with huge bundles of other colts hides. to France, where they were made up into kid gloves; or he might, with equal regard to the truth, tell her that those gloves in the other compartment once darted from
 
 tree to tree in South America on the back of the ring-tailed monkey. And if he made the rounds Of tine store and could distinguish one skin frora another he could point out "ki0 gloves made from the skins of kanga- roos from Australia. lambs or sheep from Ohio or Spain or England, calves from India, muskrats from anywhere. musk oxen from China and other parts of Asia, rats, cats and Newfoundland puppies. But the Russian colt, the four-footed baby from the plains where the Cossaells live. the colt from the steppes of Siberia, where horses are raised by the thousand, supplies the skins which furnish the bulk of the dainty coverings for my ladg's hands

N!aRnsfccIit SMIas Gla eiers.

As the Matterhorn is the grandest object to be seen in Switzerland, so also are the glaciers above Zermatt the most magnificent. In the Oberland and ChamoniX the glaciers are frozen rivers and cataracts. From the Corner Grat the glaciers are vast seas of ice, with ledges of rocky beach, over which the frozen breakers are beating. The Aletsch and the Rhone glaciers are grand, frozen torrents of immense volume, and the icefelds of the Mont Blanc range are of vast extent; but 1t is from the Corner Grat, where tho spectator is surrounded by frozen seas, out of which the snow peaks rise like islands, that the imagination is over powered by stupendous glacial effects.
