But worry is a corrosive that
specially eats out the nerves and
tissues of life. He who frets about
his work burns life's candle at
both ends. 1t is the friction rather
than the revolution of the wheels
that wears the machinery. He
who knows how to do his level
best and leave the result with God,
has learned one of the chief secrets
of life. But he who is always
worrying about how things are
coming out are most foolish. Some
people constantly complain and
protest. They imagine that their
lot is so much harder than that OF
their neighb Dor. They are always
regretting that they did not do
things some other way. Such
persons will have nerves set on
edge, will have chronic indiges-
ton, a gloomy disposition and a
diseased brain. Sunshine and
health are close friends. Do the
best you can and stew not. Work
hard. Work very hard. There is
much to do. There is much that
n one can do as we'll as you. But
do not bear two burdens. both
work and worry. All the fretting
in the world will not change mat
tiers. 1t will only render you un-
happy and unfit you for the largest
service. Mix all your burden
bearing with smiles and songs.

A great many more young men
and woman are sent upon the road
to ruin by money than by poverty.
AS a rule the devil wants no bet
ter chance at boys and girls than
to have their pockets filed with
cash and then set down at some
fashionable resort. Rest is al
right; revelry is all wrong.
You ask why the world isn't bet
ter, why there is't more charity
and love extent than we find there
in! The reason is plain. There
are too many in the world who
will not cast their bread upon the
waters unless they are assured be-
forehand that it will come back in
a few days a full grown sandwich

and mustarded.

OUR PLEDGE.

The family pledge hung on the wall,
And on it you could see
The names of mamma and Mary Jane,
And Charles-tnat is me.
We did not dare to ask papa
To write upon it, o
So left a place for him to fill
Twas all we dared to do.
He SAY our pledge as soon rs he
Came in the door that night
And when we saw him read it
1t put us in II fright.
He did not say n word to us
About that pledge at all,
But oft we saw him look al it
Hanging upon the wall.
And every night when he came home
He stood and read it through:
We all kept still about its words,
Although we knew them through.
Four weeks passed and then one night.
When papa came home to tea,
He took the pledge down from its nail
And then turned to me.
$50 get the pen and Ink, my boy,
And let me fill that space,
1t looks so bare" he slowly said,
A queer look on his face,
And then mamma set down and cried
(She said it was for joy)
And Mary Jane, she cried some, too.
/ did not-I'm a boy.
And papa said he did not drink
Since that first night when we
Had hung that pledge upon the wall,
Where he our names could see.
And every since that space WAS filed.
Mamma said SC tonight
Though dark may be u little room

RRUE STRENGTH OF MANHOOD.
Small boys often conceive the
false idea thati it is manly to chew
tobacco, smoke and swear. Older
boys and young men are prone to
conclude that moral integrity and
religious purity are elements of
weakness whilst immortality and
inidelity are evidences ofstrength.
No greater fallacies ever entered
the human mind. Which is
stronger, the boy or young nan
who resists temptation and does
right, or the one who yields and
does wrong? The one who resists
the inclin alton to indulge in strong
drink and lives asober, useful life
or the n who panders to appe-
tite and becomes a miserable
drunkard? Which isthe stronger,
the one who honors his Maker by
keeping himself pure in thought
and word and deed, or he who dis
honors God by defling himself
in mind and speech and conduct
Who does not know that it re-
quires strength of purpose, of will.

meet and see how little they say
that is pleasant and happy and
much that is dreary and sad.
They will tell of bodily aches,
pains and infirmities. They will
complain bitterly of the heat if it
is warm, or OF the chill if It'll cold.
They will speak of the discourage
ment in their business, the hard
ships in their occupation, the
troubles in their various duties,
and all the manifold miseries, real
or imagined, that have fallen to
their lot. But they will have lit
tie to say of their prosperity, their
health, their three good meals a
day, their encourageme is,
favors, friendships and manifold
blessings. Let us learn the les
son not to empty our tale of woe
into other peoples ears but dwell
more on the pleasant things of
life.
Husbands, like peaches, will
not keep the year round I'M
less they are we'll preserved.
First, select one carefully. Be
sure he is not too green; neither
should he be overripe. He might
look very tempting and mellow in
the market, but if he is too old he
will not stand the test of the pres
CRYING process, but will expose
his hard stony heart. Husbands
grown in the tropics of pleasure
look very fine, but are usually in
sipid. The home grown are best.
Select your husband, if possible,
from a family tree grown on the
sunny side of a church. You will
be sure then that he is sound at
heart. Unsound husbands, like
unsound peaches, often have to be
sorrowfully cast away. Having
selected your husband you should
have a clear, steady, CHEEKY fire of
love. Your preserving kettle
should be neat and clean. Hus-
bands, like peaches, look very
black if this is unclean. Give him
plenty of sweetness. Much sugar
is needed. Vinegar is never used
in sweet preserves. If you think
he needs a little spice, use it with
caution. Do not keep stirring
him up, neither should you keep
poking him with sharp points to
see if he is done; it will spoil his
looks. If the above receipt is fol-
lowed, and you have selected tho
right kind of a husband, you will
find his love we'll preserved.

The Orchid Family.

There seems to be general miscon-
ception as to just what an orchid is.
Many call any plant which grows on a
tree or has some peculiar feature an
orchid. This mistake is frequently
made with the pitcher plants and the
''tail flowers" The uniting in one or
gan, called the column, of the stamens
and pistils serves to distinguish the
orchid family from all related ones.
The orchid family embraces 5000 or
1000 species, of which comparatively
few are found in the warm temperate
and almost none in the cold temperate
zones. They are mostly distributed in
the tropical regions, in hot, humid
places. Orchids, however, do not inva-
riably prefer humid conditions. Nearly
all tropical orchids grow on trees, but
in temperate regions they grow in
earth.-Youth's Companion

IMMORTALITY,
One Theory of the Condition That
Comes After Death.

One Theory of the Condition That
Comes After Death.
Our life does not begin with birth,
nor does it conclude with death. 1t Is
only a section of the development of
mankind before and after us. We ex-
listed before we were born, and we
reap what the factors of our being
have sown, So our life leaves it's after
effects, and they will be what we have
made them.
The truth is that while there Is no
Immortality in the sense in which most
religions hold it If we accept their doc
trines in their literal meaning, condi-
lions in life are such in many respects,
as if these doctrines were true. For,
while our bodily existence is wiped out
with all it's physiological functions, the
essential part of our own being (the
thoughts themselves) remain, and thus
our immortality-nota as q concrete In
diyidual and bodily incarnation, but
our soul, our character, the impulses
which we have given In life to others.
our aspirations and most character
iStic featureS-cannOt be wiped out.
A man who keeps this thought in his
mind, either intuitively by realizing the
power and justice of the religious in
stinct or by having fathomed the prob
lem phiiosophically In it's very depths,
will not live for the present moment,
but In consideration of the after eff
fects which his life leaves on the
world. And 1 would say that one Of
the best tests for right action in a crit
ical situation is for man to ask him
self, If 1 had passed away from this
life what would wish that had done
in this emergency? I am confident
that the answer given to this question
would help us in the most difficult cir
Gumstaaces to find the right solution.

A professor in the University Of Ge-
neva says that snails perceive the odor
of many substances, but only when not
tar away. In order to prove this It is
necessary merely to dip glass rod In
a strongly smelling substance and
bring it near the large tentacIes Of a
snail in motion. If it is put close to
these horns the tentacles are violently
drawn back. AS the animal perceives
the odor 1t changes its course, Snails
also smell by means of their skin, Con
tact is not necessary, for the mere vi
cinity Of a perfume causes an indenta-
