The happiest man in the world
Is the common, everyday chap
who makes his own living, paws
his bills and has a little money as
he goes along; but who doesn't
strive to get a corner OH the local
output, and is neither a slave to
ambition nor society. He loves
his God and fellow men, thinks
"there is no place like home," the
haven of rest; prefers the company
of his wife and children to that of
any one else, never has to sit up
at night to poultice his conscience,
believes in the doctrine of live and
let live, and whom he encounters
Que Of the needy he doesn't slut
ter over his pocket-bood. The
plain man is happy because he is
satisfied, and he doesn't spend the
best part of life yearning for some
thing four sizes too large for him.

Children and tobacco.

Never expose young children to the
action of tobacco, for it exercises a
ball eGul effect on them. In the homes
of the poor, where whole families live
and sometimes sleep in one or two
rooms, tobacco is often the cause of
children suffering considerably from
headache, nausea and even sickness.
In fact. they suffer from it as they
would do from opium, by which they
are far more easily affected than are
their elders. The younger the child
the more susceptible it is, and, there,
FORE baby should never be allowed
to stay in a room where anyone is
smoking-a point which tobacco-lov-
ing fathers should remember.
Parents should not allow their boys
to smoke until they have stopped
growing.
The practice is most dangerous, him
dering the development of both mind
and body. In fact, so grave is the
mischief of early smoking that in
some places it is punishable offense
for any person under sixteen years
of age to smoke.
1t would be we'll for every small boy
to know that there was rod in pickle
for him each time that his desire to
be manly made him indulge in
smokA

Preserve Youth and Health.

Avoid fear in all it's varied forms OF
expression. 1t is the greatest enemy
of the human race.
Avoid excuses of all kinds; they
are injurious. The long life must
be a temperate, regular one.
Don't live to eat; but eat to live.
Many of oufsills are due to overeating,
to eating the wrong things and to ir-
regular eating.
Don't allow yourself to think on
your birthday that you are year
older and so much nearer the end.
Never look on the dark side; take
sunny views of everything; sunny
thought drives away the shadows.
Be child; live simply and naturally
and keep clear of entangling alliances
and complications of all kinds.
Cultivate the spirit of contentment;
all discomfort and dissatisfaction bring
are burrows prematurely to the face.
Form a habit of throwing off before
going to bed at night all the cares and
anXieties of the day-everything
which can possibly cause mental wear
and tear or deprive you of rest.

AMERICAN woMAN's VOICE.
Harsnness Accredited to Hurry
and Turmoil.

and Turmoil.
Her voice was ever soft,
Gentle and low; an excellent thing in
woman.
Foreigners, however they may com.
pliment American women, frequently
comment that their voices are harsh
1t is, no doubt, a well-merited criti-
cism, since one must admit that few
women possess such voice as Shake
speare stated was excellent in women.
The feyerish desire of the woman of
today to accomplish much and the
hurry and turmoil in which we live
have more to do with the quality of
the voice than climatic condition. A
little thought and self-repression, as
well as an effort to speak slowly,
would tend to better matters, and the
habit of smiling will take the sharp
tang out of the voice.
1t takes more time to make ones
self understood when speaking in
low voice than in shrill one, but
1t is more restful to both speaker and
listener. A gentle, well-moulded voice
is an evidence of good breeding.
Thomas Wentworth Higginson says:
Shut me up in a dark room with
mixed multitude and | can pick out
the gentle folks by their voices" 1t is
not difficult to change high-pitched,
strident tones, and every woman
should strive to possess a beautiful
voice, for sweetness will linger in the
voice long after it has died out in
the eyes. A famous critic has said
no woman can be really fascinating if
she lack a pleasant tone.
Placing the voice, is of course, very
important for singer, and it is said
a voice misplaced will not last, how
ever fine it naturally may be. BY
taking singing exercises of compe-
tent teacher men or women can correct
a squeaky or thin voice and secure
full, mellow tones of strength and
power. In the compass of every voice
there are three registers-the middle
or thoat, the lower or chest, and the
upper or head register The use of
the middle pitch for talking is very
desirable, but the voice should be
trained to slide up and down, varying
with the emotions; low when the mood
inclines toward seriousness, and high
er when it becomes tinged with ex
element. An interesting speaker con
stantly changes his pitch; not abrupt
ly, but with ease and skill, and the
greater range one has the more GER
tain he is to get and retain the pleas
ed attention of listeners.
Club life has made demands upon
women for abilities in the way of
reading papers aloud and participating
in discussions, and if one can rise
gracefully without blushing, deliver
an address, concise, intelligent, and to
the point, in a pleasing voice, she is
the envy of her associates. Many
women who write with pens sparkling
with wit and epigram become mute
and inglorious when they attempt to
talk in public, simply because their
voices fail them. 1t is a peculiar fact
that women Of the stage who should
be immune to stage fright are often
positively speechless when called on
for a curtain speech.-The Pilgrim.

Mr.. Miller was the fathef of a large

actively and successfully engaged in
the business in which their father was
a conspicuous pioneer. 1t is said that
the fruit interests of the Miller family
are more extensive than that of any
other family in America, and this
enormous industry has been largely
influenced by the practical knowledge
and love of the business which came to
them as their brthright and inherit

TACT OF GREAT VALUE.
Especially Necessary to Women in
This Busting Twentieth Century.

This Busting Twentieth Century.
IL there is one thing more than an
other which serves to make ones path
way along this vale of tears" a bit
smoother it is the possession of tact
Call it scheming, hypocrisy, what you
will, it is priceless possession which
will bring large dividends, payable
on presentation.
In the hustle and hustle of this
twentieth century, when as some one
has said, 'if one stops to tie his shoe
strings he is left behind" it is the
tactful person who is going to get
most out of life
The woman who understands her
own possibilities and limitations so
well that she knows just when and
where to supplement her own capa-
bilities by using those of others, and
who sees the limitations of others and
makes up for their lack with her own
resources, has, after all, only herself
to thank for any success she may OBJ
tain.
The tactful woman knows that she
cannot afford to cut" even her dear
est enemy" that she must let many
little things pass by, and smile, and
smile. She cultivates the art of max
ing people think she likes them and
is interested, where she might find
ready excuse for being bored.
