HANGING A WOMAN.

THERE has been a great deal Of ex-

be executed is a woman.
Now il that is sufficient, the agita-

GGT 1FE." said Carlyle. consists
II chiefly in buttoning and un-
'buttoning" This characterization Of
the monotony Of existence is so apt
that all viii appreciate its applica-
tion
But monotony is largely a mental
habit, for while many Of our tasks are
repeated from day to day. yet genius
brings to their performance some tri-
fling variation in method. There is
nothing more uninteresting than the
daily toilet or the morning shave, un-
less. indeed, st be the "unbuttonng"
which nightly follows. But can you
imagine such routine being monoton-
GUS or tiresome to a Mrs. Wigs?
In business life there is a vast deal
of drudgery. and some Of It Is involved
in the system, and some becomes mere
habit; but here, too, the mind may
play an important part. To work
without interest is to drudge. and
lack Of interest comes when our mem
tality is not in the work
A printer Is set to cut paper on the
assumption that he can get from
sheet six pieces of certain size, with
considerable waste. He calculates
closely and gets seven. with no waste
His work has not been drudgery be-
cause there has been a problem which
he has satisfactory solved.
In the practice of medicine certain
physicians diagnose a case-it's ty-
phoid. for instance. The authorized
treatment is prescribed without varia-
ton. on the basis il he lives he lives
and IL he dies he dies But there can
be no satisfaction in such practice. be-
cause only the theory OF the schools
and not the science of the individual is
engaged.
Monotony is avoided when each new
task is made to have a new slgnn-
canoe Mark Twain taught the les
son that whitewashing fence might
be made very alluring to boys.
II there is no novel idea to be
brought to the performance OF a task,
there may at least be the purpose OF
doing It little better than it has
hitherto been done; and satisfaction
always follows praiseworthy per-
formance. There may be much but
toning and unbuttoning.' but there
are new buttons. and there is always
the possibility Of new arrangements.

that as a person must not be shield
