Broken Resolutions.

And now, after week or SO, have
your New Year 8 resolutions withei cd :
Have you already neglected the nice
new diary? Have yoa gone back to
smoki ing after few days of martyr.
dom? Are you up ag sinst the booze
once more?
Well. you are not the only one.
Tho man who tails in his high res
olutions has lots of company.
There ARE people who say that good
resolutions are bad because failure in
them reveals TO one his own weak.
nesses aud slavery to habit; having
once failed, lie is less likely ever to
try again with the hope and con ntidence
10 necessary to success.
But isn't it better to know your
weaknesses than to be. blind to them.
Diagnosis precedes cure.
Isn't it better to have tried once and
failed than never to have tried at all? ?
Strength comes of effort.
Isn't il better to have had week
or day even-of sobriety for your
self and of happiness and hope for your
wife and children, to have had clear
brained look at youself and the world
about you. and to have known for
little while at least how it feels to be
a man and master Of yourself?
One battle does not decide cam.
paigp. One failure, one Iever Q, or a
dozen of them need not mean defeat.
There is no neei of waiting until
next year to try again. A good resolu-
tion and good efforts are as good on
one day as another. They are best of
all when made every day.
Having failed, there is no need to
drag out a whole year in helpless and
vain regrets. There is nothing magical
about the beginning Of the year or the
ending of it. The only psychological
moment for throwing off the thraldom
of an injurious habit is the moment
when you have the courage to try.
Years are big spaces. We live by
days. Every morning when we wake
n new world begins; every night when
we drop to sleep the old world dies.
Years, centuries, are nothing to us but
names it is the days, hours. minutes.
seconds, that our ours.
The great events of world history
have not waited upon arbitrary mea-
surements of time, nor need the affairs
of any mans life.
The best time to try to get up is
when you realize that you have fall
len. Yearly efforts may fall forever,
while daily efforts may soon succeed.

DEGRADATION of a Traitor.

The military tailor had cut from
the uniform all it's buttons, stripes
and other decorations. Now he was
sewing these things loosely on again
with a single thread.
"A painful duty, this he shouted,
for it was noisy in the shop. The err
rand boy, as he filed a beautiful
sword blade in two, filed the place
with a harsh, rasping sound.
What on earth are you doing?' the
reporter asked.
Il am preparing to degrade a trail
tor" said the tailor, "In the degra,
dation of military traitors the tailor
always plays an important, though
unseen, part.
"You know how the degradation is
done? The traitor, before his regi'
ment, to the muf1ed rumbling OF
drums, is called bad names by mis-
chief and then his buttons and stripes
and epaulettes are torn off and his
sword is snapped in two.
IF T didn't file the sword blade
down to a thread, and it dldn
loosen the buttons and stripes the cere'
monv would have no dignity. In pull
inc off the decorations, and in snap

be required. Indeed, in the case OF an

Miss Helen Miller Gould was ad

the subject of tact.
What" said Miss Gould, "is more
unpleasant, more annoying, than
tactlessness? Let me tell you about
a supremely tactless man.
"This man went with his wife to q
dinner party. He took down to dinner
a very charming woman, but the first
course had hardly began when, to his
wife's dismay, he jumped up from his
seat beside the lady, and making q
circuit of the table, took vacant
chair beside young matron.
after the dinner, as the mans wife
entered her carriage to drive home
she said impatiently:
al have been dying all the evening
to ask you why, after taking her
down to dinner, you deserted Mrs. A
for Mrs. B.
