when You Make a Nistahe.

When you make mistake in
judgment or in word, or in both,
own up. Don't try to explain how
you came to do it, nor seek to sas-
tain an untenable position by argu
ment; that merely wastes time and
brings you into disrepute as con-
tentious quibbler. There. is only
one way to rectify mistake, if recti-
ficstion be needed, and that is frank
ly to admit the error and make what
ever amends may be required. A
straightforward confession is good
for the soul. 1t is the tribute which
conscience demands of intelligence.
The man who will not admit his
blunders has neither conscience to
set him straight, nor any intelli-
gence to keep him so.--Brookiyn
Eagle.

1T is EASY ENOUsH.

When life flows by like song,
But the man worth while is the one VIII,

When everything goes wrong.
For the test of the heart Is trouble,
And 1t always comes with the years,
And the smile that Is worth the praise,

When nothing tempts you to stray,
When without or within no voice of sin
Is luriDg your soul away.
But It's only a negative virtue
Unti' il is tried by fire,
Aud the life that is worth the honor of
earth
Is the one that resists desire.
BY the cynic, the sad, the fallen,
Who had no strength for the strife,
The worlds highway is numbered to-
day
They make up the item of life.
But the virtue that conqu.rs passion,
And the sadness that hides iu a smile
1t is these that are worth the homage of
earth,
For we find them but once In while.
