FROM A BACHELORS VIEW

Small men have big OPINIONS of
themselves.
When you dig into mans vanity
you touch the spot where his hatred
for you lies.
No woman likes to think that the
man she cares about would rather see
her happy and plain than pretty and
discOntented.
IL seems ever so much more to say
that Il woman is older than her hus-
band than to say man Is younger than
his wife.
There are men in this world who
think dcgcncracy is brlliancy and Vi
ciousncss is smartncss, but, thank God,
they mover got those ideas from their
mother.
II you forget to tell Il woman you
love her she forgcts you do.
When woman decides that Il gown
is cut too low IT. is some other woman's
An entertaining friend is one who
will listen to you tell the same old
story for the nincty-mnth time.
Some peoples souls are 50 shallow
that if you throw pebble into them
it strikes bottom before it splashcs.
The average girl thinks it is smart
to try to make other girls think she
has refused to marry man when she
is in Mysteries for fear he won't ask
her.
Take care Of the pennies and the
pounds will spend themselves.
What a man wants 10 do with a wO-
man is to love her in her way and let
her love him in the same way.
You can foo! a woman into thinking
she is fooling you, but you can't fo'
her into thinking you arc foollng her
| When a woman goes into a dry goods
shop to buy a spool Of thread she
begins by pricing $4,000 Russian
sablcs.
a man can love Il woman with q dos
and he can love woman with cat
but he quits at widow with thrc,
children.
When Il man says it is showing h,
means that it is showing now; Il wo
nan means that it was showing ycstcr
day or will snow tomorrow, or that
is doing anything but showing now.
One woman breaks mans hear
and some other woman mends it.
Even if a mans money could hol

A Slight Misconstruction.

The golden text for a certain Sun
d~ay-school, somewhat blindly writ
ten upon the blackboard, was, "And
the child grew and waxed strong in
spirit. Luke $40" Little Ted's
hand went up like a fash when the
Superintendent asked: "Can any of
these bright, smiling little boys or
girls repeat the golden text for to-
day? All, how glad it makes my
heart to see so many little hands go
up! Teddy, my boy, you may repeat
it, and speak good and loud that all
may hear" And they all heard this:
"And the child grew and waxed
strong in spirit like 2:4O."-Selected.

OCTOBER HUNTING.
How American Hunters are Seeking the
Game Fields.

Nearly every lover of the gun and
rife has a choice of the game he will
pursue. This one is never so happy
as when marking down a covey of
quail. To another the prairie chick
en-, or, if he be eastern-bred, the ruff
fed grouse, furnishes the keenest
sport. In a third the flight of Wild
fowl alone has power to snap the
chains of business and send him forth
into the marshes. With others it Is
squirrel shooting, the pursuit of rab-
bit with beagles, riding to hounds in
the chase of Sir Reynard, while the
lover of the rife and the eternal mys-
terry of the deep woods finds no such
pleasure as in the pursuit of big
game-moose, bear and deer. Many
there are to cry down the hunt as
catering to barbaric and the least
human of the instincts which are the
endowment from our ~forefathers:
Therein do they do grave injustice
to a class wherein are found some
of the truest gentlemen and noblest
natures whom we delight to honor.
They do gravely mistake the motive
which sends the true sportsman afeld
when he hears the challenge of the
quail. It is not the mere desire to
kill. In truth hat we're butchery.
But rather, it is the longing to match
skill and slowly acquired knowledge
of the ways and habits of the little
brown birds against their swift
wings and inherent cunning which
for lack of a better term we call in
stinct. And beyond even this, it is
for the pleasure of being afield, for
the surroundings, the setting of the
favorite sport, for the bracing air
and for the knowledge of the great
outdoor world which every tramp
with dog and gun increases. So the
true sportsman takes an honest
pride in his skill, so be it his eye has
been true and his hand steady while
he gave his bird every chance of a
fair flush. But, so be it that he mis-
ses, his chagrin is tempered with re-
spect for, and a certain satisfaction
in, the escape of the little wild life
which has proved more than his
match. And though his bag be light.
he will return home in the cleaning
contented in mind and once more g
simple child of nature.-CountrJ

GraciOusness as a Success Maker.

Many men yet fail to secure the
results which ~faithfulness, honesty,
ability ought to secure, for the sim
pie reason that they are not gentle
men. They are not likable, and they
are not liked.
The one comprehensive element in
the major graces is graciousness.
Graciousness is the one condition out
of which the individual graces grow
and blossom. It is appreciation of
the other man at his full worth, and
even at more than his full worth. 1t
is a favoring ofhim who is undeserv-
ing or even ill-deserving. It is put
ting ones self in the place of the
other. It is not only the Golden
Rule, but it is even more; it is not
simply loving your neighbor as you
love yourself, but loving him a little
better. It is certainly treating him
with an honesty and a favoritism
higher than you would demand of
yourself for yourself. It's signif-
canoe is well embodied in the phrase,
"After you, sir"
Of course, graciousness is eve to
become fawning. Fawning is born
of the desire to secure certain fav-
Ors from q superior. It is essential
ly base and mean. Graciousness is
founded upon the genuine belief that
the person 80 whom one is gracious
has a certain right to receive a favor,
or rather that the one who is gra-
cious has a certain right to bestow a
favor upon the i'll, or u~ndeserving.
Fawning is asking favors; gracious
ness is giving favors. Graciousness
is very well described in saying, it
"sufereth long, and is kind; envieth
not; vaunteth not itself, is not pulled
up, doth not behave itself unseemly,
seeketh not her own, is not easily
provoked, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth
not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the
truth; beareth all things, believetE
all things, hopeth all things, endur.
eth all things."-Dr. Charles F.
