PoLITENEsS ALWAYS WINS.

moments interchange of remarks anent

Quite true is it that courtesy may
find itself defeated by the brazen i'm
pudence Of some detrimental; but. as
it is better to be cheated a thousand
times when bestowing charity than TO
let one deserving case suffer, SO 1t is
better to be courteous than disagree

THE HAPPYFYlNC PERSON.
An Enviable Reputation to Which
Emily Howe Could Not
Lay Claim.

Mrs. Brown climbed the steps and
dropped YEARLY into one Of the big
chairs Oh the hamilton piazza. The
Hamiltons were summer people, ana
Mrs. Brown had never beer 20 miles
away from South Gosport in her life,
but a warm friendship had quickly lev
eled all distinctions between the two
families. relates Youths Companion.
Yes" Mrs. Brown said, in reply to
her hostess greeting. Its been an age
| since Eve been over, | know, but we've
been having company; and tisn't that.
| either-I wouldn't have minded the ex-
ira work even with mother sick, but
we'll. 1t was Emily Howe, and you've
met Emily, so mebbe you'll understand.
She isn't exactly what you'd call a hap
pyfying person"
The Hamiltons understood; they had
exchanged calls with Emily Howe sever
al times, and always. although they were
conscious of nothing but the sunniest of
mental tempers at the beginning of the
call, it's close invariably found them uH-
accountably depressed. ClCrinda. who
was young and had not yet learned the
long and gentle art of charitable speech.
| spoke suddenly before her mother could
| prevent her; it was not easy to prevent
Clorinda:
Emily Howe she declared, sis like
the climate of Scotland as I've read Of it
one perpetual drizzle. And there are
some things-feathers, and my hair, and
| afternoon calls and certain enthusiasms
that can't stand a GriZZle, and nothing
wants to be drizzled upon all the time"
No. Emily Howe certainly was not
"happyfying." but the quaint word
might well set one to thinking of the
many people who could wear it honor
ably-the sunny. CHEEKY, warm-hearted
| people full Of interest in life and love for
humanity and faith in God. They may
not be brilliant or cultured or intellectu-
| al, but everywhere they go they carry
| an atmosphere of ease and charm to
| which others yield as quickly as to the
| welcome of All open fire on a bleak day.
After all, could one wish a finer thing
than just to be. wherever life has placed

REMEDY FOR MOSQUITOES.
London Women Discover That San
dalwood Is Excellent Way of
Getting Rid of Pests.

London women have discovered an
agreeable way of Kidding their homes of
flies and mosquitoes, says the Chicago
Tribune. They burn sandalwood in the
house, an idea imported from the orient.
In London it is possible to get wood pre-
pared for the purpose. In America it is
to be had at almost any Turkish or Japa-
nese importing house. 1t is then pre-
pared for burning by being first cut into
small pieces on-half inch thick and
three inches long.
Then it is baked or dried out in a slow
oven "a hours. A piece of the wood is
put into ametal urn. lighted and allowed
to burn until well aflame, when the flame
is extinguished and the redhot ember
left to smolder until the wood is con-
sumed and nothing is left but a heap of
fine gray ashes.
