Openings for Bright Boys.


 A commercial chemist of long expe- rience states that the young man who has acquired the basic principles and fair amount of technical knowledge usually has no difficulty in getting per mission to work in . laboratory, pro- vided he Is quick, handy, neat and bright. While . course at some tech nical school is of almost inestimable value, the aspirant who has to study by himself s not hopeless of success. Some, chemists who have made their mark never saw the inside of school of tech nology. but that is chiefly because the institutions were neither so good nor so plentiful in the old days of prepara- tion.

BEcoMINcLY DRESSED.
No Matter How old, a Woman Should Be Careful of Personal Clean
 liness and Dress.

To be we'll and becomingly dressed does not necessarily mean large out lay of either time or money; neither does 1t call for the latest Creation" of style or material. Often, the sim- plest and most inexpensive materials. made up with regard to the suitable ness of style, color and fabric, adap- tation to the figure and to the age, are the most becoming and effective. A simple fve-cent calico or lawn can be made into very dressy and be- coming garment, while bit of lace or linen about the neck, and touch of color at the throat, combined with dainty personal cleanliness, will make the plainest of women attractive. Do not be in too big hurry to dress according to your age," for one will grow old fast enough, and 1t Is just as we'll to hang on to remnant of youth as long as one can, even If one has to resort to simple artificial means to accomplish 1t. Personal cleanli- ness is an adjunct to good looks above everything else. and woman should give proper attention to this feature. It is all nonsense for woman to claim that she Is "too old" or too poor, or too overworked to care for her personal appearance. She should resolve not to grow old; not to be too poor to use soap and water and wash rag, or an emOllient for the cleansing of the face, neck and hands. or for the proper dressing of her hair. She should take, as her right, few minutes every day in which to prop erly attend to her toilet, and learn to regard pleasing personal appear ance IS much of necessity as the getting up of the family meals. This duty she owes to herself.
 It is not so much what "others say" about us that should influence us; we should approve of ourselves. Deny 1t as one may, becomingly dressed woman irresistibly compels our atten. tion and commands our respect, be she young or old, and neatness of person and apparel is passport into refined society. We instinctively pay homage to a woman who respects herself. Moreover, "'looks" have a moral and spiritual effect upon one, and the woman who knows she is pleasant to look at feels pleasant, and is pleasant, because in attracting ap- proving attention from others, she feels respect for herself which noth- ing but the assurance that she looks we'll" can ever give her.-The Com moner.

 He pulled off his boots.
 If she don't go lame t,morrer I'll miss my guess,' he added. 'She looks good deal like Deacon Haskins after he had milked the brindle cow"
 He leaned back, one foot upon the stove hearth. Shrill cries rang in the old house.
 "'Druther 'twould hev been a paint er," said Funk, signing.

 "More used to 'em." said Funk sadly. They listened a while longer without speaking. ...

 He got his lantern, picked up the bot tie. the slung shot and the iron and went away to the barn.
 Trove went to the bedroom door and rapped and was admitted. He went to work with the baby, and soon. to hs joy, 1t lay asleep on the bed. Then he left the room on tiptoe and bit weary.
 "A very full day" he said to himself teacher, counselor. martyr, consta- ble. nurse. I wonder what next?"
 And as he went to his room he heard Miss Samantha say to her sister. I'm thankful it's not boy anyway"

 At a quarter before in the morning Sidney TrOve presented himself at the Homers' He had come to help with the milking. but found there were only five cows to milk.

 "You'll give me lessonY' he asked eagerly.

 ''Shall we let her make the tear" he asked, looking thoughtfully at Polly.
 Perhaps we'd better" said she. . laughing.
 "All right. we'll let her make the tea. We don't have to drink 1t"
 "You," said the widow, ''are like Gov ernor Wright, who said to Mrs. Per kins, Madam. will praise your tea, but hang me if I'll drink it."

 'T'ye more fear for my body" said he, glanclng down upon his long figure. "I've never lifted my feet save for the purpose Of transportation. I'd like to learn to dance because Deacon Tower thinks 1t wicked, and I've learned that happiness and sin mean the same thing in his vocabulary"
 T fear you're a downward and back sliding youth," said the widow.
 "You know what Ezra Tower said of Ebenezer Fisher, that he was 'one O them mush heads that didn't believe in hell? Are you one O that kindp Proclaimers of liberal thought were at work there in the north.
 'Since I met Deacon Tower I'm sure it's useful and necessary. He's got to have some place for his enc mics. If 1t were not for hell the dea- con would 4e miserable here and, may. be, happy hereafter"
