THE sELF-MADE MAN.
There Are Some Amictions
He Escapes.

Now and then we encounter q natural
Sorn ice-man, says Puck.
Some men always seem so very new, and
others so very parvenu.
The selfmade man is often q very good
sort-when he's finished
He rarely has the govt, but he sometimes
suffers from over exertion of the egotism. y
Somehow, the ears of the self-made man
often have the look of having been stolen
from 4 grab-bag.
The self-made man escaped one great attic
ton. He didn't have baccalaureate sermon
preached at him.
And, Oh! if he could only remember that
there are always others just a. insignia

Eossiter was more than surprised
at this spontaneous proposal. He
was not accustomed to gratitude,
and that he should inspire anyone
with enough confidence to suggest
such IN arrangement struck him
with something like amazement
But the more he meditated upon the
suggestion the more tempting it was
to him. Three weeks and half had
yet to elapse before the first of Octo-
Der. If he should decide to return
brothers acquaintance, here was an
opening which would enable him to
go back with little money in his
pocket, doubtless more than he could
earn as a hOstler.
Its mighty good of you to men
ton such a thing" said he. ''Are
you sure you really mean ito"
Mean i'll" echoed the young man
well, 1 g'4ess!''
Then I'm with you!" exclaimed
Rossiter, surprised the instant he had
spoken ut his own earnestness and
decision.

LOVING WORDS.

Loving words will cost but little,
Journeying up the hill of life;
But they make the weak and weary
Stronger, drawer for the strife.
Do you count them only trifles?
What to earth are sun and rain?
Never was a kind word wasted,
Never one was said in vain.
-.
When the cares of life are many,
And its burdens heavy grow,
Think of weak ones close beside you
IL you love them, tell them so.
What you count of little value
Has an almost magic power,
And beneath Tleir cheering sunshine
Hearts will blossom like a flower.
So, as up life's hill we journey,
Let Us scatter all the way
Kindly words, for they are sunshine
In the dark and cloudy day.
Grudge no loving word or action
As along through life you go;
There are weary ones around you
II you love them, tell them so.
Noble l.. Clayton, in Galveston News.
