Of the best spirit to be preserved in all

hut it is a pretty good all-around
motto for everyday lite IS well. The
cook may have gone away in tenn
per on the very day of your dinner
party--it's a way cooks have-or the
GreSsmaker may have failed to send
home your new frock in time for Mrs.
SO-and-Sos reception, but froWns and
ters in either case. It may be that
the world contains other cooks, or
even that the same one may be IN
duced to return in time to save the
day. And if not, why not pitch right
in and do the best you can yourself
with the best grace you can muster?
II your dinner does not turn out quite
as we'll as you would like, just make
a joke Of the whole affair and let your
guests laugh with you. Bless you,
they too, have troubles of their own
and they will relish almost a1y sort
of a repaSt that is served with laugh
ter sauce. And as for the dress that
did not come, why, since you must do
without it in any event, just do with
out it cheeTfully. You have other
frocks, possibly, and if you Turkish
one of them up a bit and wear ii with
your lightest heart and your gladdeSt
smile, people will simply wonder why
they never knew before how pretty
you are and how tastefully you dress.
That is, the people who count for any
thing. And as for the others, who
cares abont what they think, any way?

Graduating wrinkles and keeping
crows feet at bay; but cheerful
mind discounts all of them 1t isn't
easy to be cheerful when things go
wrong, you say. No; but it doesn't
help any to be grumpy, does it? Then,
in the expressive slang of the day,
forget it." Cheerfulness is a habit,
just as much as wOrrying-Only it is
a good deal rleasanter for yourself
and everybody else. Get the habit,
then; and the first thing you know the
worries will have taken flight. They
can not stand sunshine. In a cheerful
atmosphere they find themselves so
distinctly tout of it" that they prefer
to make themselves scarce. Therefore,
be cheerful. 1t may cost you something
at first, but it will pay in the end.
How to manage it? Look out instead
of in. You are not the only human
creature who has troubles. Every
woman has them-and most men-so
you can not lay claim to exclusiveness
along this line. But the world is
pretty good world, on the whole, and
you will enjoy it more than you do
now when you begin to look out on it
with unClOuded eyes. Leave the house
or the office or the schoolrOom behind
you once in while and take a breath
ing spell out in the open. And when
you do go out, do not always go shop
ping. Don't bother with bargain days
unless you really want something that
you can't buy any other time. And
even at the bargain counter be sunny.
1t may seem difficult, but it isn't near
~ as difficult as it seems if you only
start trying it.

Stimulating Reading.

We cannot help living in some de-
gree the lives of heroes who are on
stantly in our minds. Our characters
are constantly being modified, shaped
n nodded by the suggestions which
are thus held. The most helpful life
stories for the average youth, says
Success Magazine, are not the meteoric
ones, the unaccountable ones, the as
tonishing ones like those of NAPOLEON.
Olived Cromwell, and julius Caesar.
The great stars of the race dazzle most
boys. They admire, but they do not
feel that they can initiate them. They
like to read their lives, but they do
not get the h%elpfulness and the en-
couragement from them that thew do
from reading the lives of those who
have not startled the world so much.
1t is the triumph of the ordinary abil-
ity which is most helpful as an in
spiration ard encouragement. The life
of Lincoln has been an infinitely
greater inspiration to the world than
the life of Napoleon or that of julius
Caesar.

Road of the CRATER.

The road of the CRATER is not an easy
one. The temptation to graft is in
sidious, and men who mean to conduct
themselves with honesty and dignity
may be betrayed into it. Modern
business methods" is a sufficiently
e~uphonious term to fool a brisk and am
Dltlous man not too much given to re-
lection or determination. And all
goes we'll for a time. The bank account
increases, the man feels himself to be
shrewd and influential; he is able to
put his family "at the top of the heap"
honors come easily to him, and young
men are fattered to be associated with
him in business. Then, says The Read
er, the exposure comes. Those that
ave trusted him know him for what
he is; his own specious plea of the
modern business method sounds
strangely inadequate ever to himself.
HIS name, which he hoped to see as
ISOLATED in the minds of men with great
enterprises, and which he expected his
sons to use as a sort of open sesame"
becomes, suddenly, the synonym for
dishonesty, greed and failure. The
CRATER has, perhaps, though. himself
hardened. He finds, to his dismay,
that he is not. Shame awakehs; con-
science no longer sleeps. The dreams
OF his ambitious youth come to haunt
him. He would give his fortune, many
times duplicated, for the innocence ana
integrity of his early manhood. He is
a bad mamie can suffer, he can
be ashamed, he can long for innocence.
Perhaps, on reflection, there are no
bad men. At any rate, the CRATER has
shown himself capable of dying broken
hearted or of going, a melancholy luna |
tic, to the asylum for the insane. His |
career requires stern metal. Let him
who enters it be sure that his con-
science is dead, his family pride buried,
his self-respect quenched, and that he
is obdurate to the reproachful tears of
the women who owe him, Having |
made quite, quite sure of all this, one
might adopt a grating career in an
expectant spirit.

st. Petersburg-At the end of a
memorable seven-hour session, the low
er house of parliament Indignantly re-
jected the governments policy as pre-
scented by Premier GoremykiA, and,
with only seven dissentient voices,
voted a lack of confidence in the min
istry. This practically throws down
the gauntlet TO the bureaucracy with
a demand for the retirement of the pres
ministry approved by a majority in the
house.
While the house avoided the appear
ance OF declaring an ultimatum, the
government seems to have no alterna-
tive between surrender and war. The
gloomy forebodings are heard every
where, and the general impression Is
that the country is on the verge of a
Titanic struggle, which may be de-
layed but not averted. Dispatches from
the interior indicate that the struggle
may be ~lnaugurated with a general
strike, when the people learn hat all
amnesty has been refused.

in process of consummation in the Pearl

C direct connection with the half mil
lion dollar deal recently closed in Jack

OF a railroad up the valley from jack
son to Columbia, and eventually to Bir-
mingham. Purchases aggregating $751;

When Kansas was SUFFERING fror

When Kansas was suffering from
the visitation of grasshopper the
whole country united in raising
money and contributing food and
clothing for the sufferers. Many a
mean man was developed then. The
contributions were SO generous that
opportunity was afforded for graft.
And more than enc man now rich laid
the foundation of his fortune in the
cash or goods which he stole from. the
relief fund. Much the same thing has
been noted in a smaller scale in the
San Francisco case.
