THE PHILOSOPHER.

The discontend man is often his
own cloud raiser and sunshine OBJ
scurer.
Harsh criticism of neighbors gener-
ally arises from self-conscioTsness OF
like defects.
Nothing so disturbs the devotions OIL
a woman as the fact that her neigh
bors's hat beats her own a feather or
two,
Marriage is failure to people who
are failures.
1t is the deepest furrowing in soils
and minds that brings about the best
results in harvests
Great tales from little whispers
grow.
1t is wise politician who is con
tent with something equally as good.
1t is not the truth that shames the
devil. 1t is the telling of it.
The softness of woman's touch is
sometimes mighty hard on the deposi-
tor
Virtue is it's own reward. But her
paying teller is not rushed making
change.
1t is more consoling, if not more
blessed, to give a solar plexus than to
receive Knockout blow from tn
other fellow.

ancient lace. "All else is nothing to

The money" and she smiled and
shrugged scarcely shrugged-her

but a marriage! That would have
been fatal"

And Lady Letchford had felt that
| this was sound advice. Though she
lnad every confidence in her son, she
had known cases of a relapse, and
she felt that if Sir Heron did go
back to the old life his last state
would be like that of the. man in the
parable, worse than the first. He had
sown his wild oats and had left the
field but if she had allowed him to go
/ back, he would reap that whirlwind
which is the sure and certain harvest
of all sucn sowings.

Once again, as in the past years, the
Void threw open it's tall doors, and
guests we're hidden to the feast. En-
tertainments, which reminded the
elders of the days of the Regency and
astounded the young ones by their
stately splendor, followed each other
in rapid succession. The proud and
anxious mother paraded, as it were, all
the beauty of the county before her
sons eyes. He had but to throw his
handkerchief, sultan-like, and make
his choice; but Sir Heron would not
throw his handkerchief-he would
scarcely, so to speak, take it from his
