Plea For Laughter.
God meant US to laugh. OF course
the time and place must be considered.
Gigging at a funeral and buffoonery
in the pulpit may be equally out of
place But we err if we think that a
solemn face will charm any one into Il
good life. Dame puts angry. solemn
people into hell While this is too Sc
we're, Yet if people fail to appreciate
and enjoy the bounty and beauty and
music of Gods world Eere will they
ever be perfectly happy in heaven: If
l had my way | would take off all
'hoods" and wells" and sad symbols
and urge to the fullest the enjoyment
of this beautiful world God has placed
us in We owe it to God and to each
other to laugh and be glad. The sar-
donic. Sneering. sarcastic laugh is not
wanted. but wholesome laughter. min
iStering good cheer to others. is needed.
1t is better to make the angel sing in
the soul and to make music in sad
hearts than to carve an angel out OF

Why More Women Do Not Engage

Martha s. Bensley in Everybody's
Magazine in series of articles re-
lates her experiences as a nursery
governess. She says, speaking Of the
hrst family with whom she lived:
Their chauffeur was paid $500
month, and he had only the care of a
machine; their governess was paid
SS2, her board and half a room, and
mad entire charge of their three lit
lie girls, body. mind and soul. The
one was trained mechanic; the
o'ner position required more qualifi.
cations than l. a college woman and
teacher of considerable experience,
could boast.

Her Transformation.

Her Transformation.
She dxank quantities of water. ate a lot
of starchy foods,
Abstained from exercising every day:
She assimilated Tactic and a case of malt
ed goods,
But it seemed her fate to have to fade
away.
She so mourned attenuation, with a WIS.,
age like an owls,
That a smile upon her face was never
seen;
While below her mouth We're wrinkles
and above her eyes were Scowls.
And her nose was like a Ratchet in be-
tween.
But one day she fell to laughing in a
strange, hysteric way,
Just in thinking how ridiculous 1t
proved;
And it mellowed to cackle that was
sane enough, they say,
Till at last she giggled every time she
moved.
Why, she chuc1led out her wrinkles, and
she snickered off her frowns.
And then took to all the things she
shouldn't do;
Now she's grown as fat as butter, and
has outgrown all her gowns;
But she laughs away at that disaster,
too.

Sheep Never Seasick.

L. B. Harris of Lyndonville, VT,
says that he has noted an interesting
fact in regard to sheep. He has just
imported some sheep from England
and the steamer had a rough passage.
Although passengers, horses and cat
tie alike were terribly frightened by
the heavy rolling and pitching of the
big ship, the sheep paid no attention
whatever and contentedly chewed
their cud through all the tossing.

Women in Paraguay.

In Paraguay the women are in the
proportion of seven to one as com
pared with the men. The Consequence
is that the men are taken the greatest
care Of. and everything which is un.
pleasant or might be risky to the life
of a man is done by the women. The
streets are cleaned, ships are loaded,
oxen are driven by them, and it is
even said that they have taken part in
their country's wars, acting as substi-
tutes for their menkind.

One of the guests wished n second
