LITTLE THOUGHTS.

Disappointment is not a sufficient
reason for encouragement.
Be satisfied with yourself II You Will.
but do not be self satisfied.
All things come to those who leave
on waiting and 20 after them.
The claims - wisdom OF all owls and
most men rest upon their looks.
Good qualities. like good steel knives.
grow dull OF edge unless they are used.
Many a nan who Is offered chance
Of lifetime for mere song cannot
sing.
Your grip on success depends largely
on the other things you are willing to
let 20.
When man sets popularity before
his eyes. he is likely to let principle out
OF his heart.
If we had no failings ourselves, we
should not take 80 much pleasure in
finding out those of others.

Work Their Way MS Well.
In the old days of canal voyaging
captains of boats were not infrequently
asked to give a wayfarer lift. The
man was asked If he was wiling to
work his passage. If he said Yes he
was put to work driving the horses. In
Europe, 1t seems, similar custom is
practiced on paying coach passengers.
In the Pyrenees there is coach road
between two villages, one on each side
Of mountain 10000 feet high. After
the coach has proceeded little dis

There is where he makes a mistake,
for the conductor, with sweet smile.
begs the gentlemen to be kind enough
to hang on TO the coach behind and act

or else the horses may be injured.
In this manner the terminus OF the
line is reached. the passengers having
pushed the coach all the way up Que

all the way down the other.
In spite OF this there is rush for
places on the coach daily, as there has
been for half century. Spare Mo-
