SHARPENING A PENCIL,

II AInp'H Character.
No woman should marry u man TIL
she has seen him sharpen a lead pen
ell. She can tell hy The way he does
1t whether he l.; suited to her or not.
Here are u few mfallibc rules for her
guidance In the matter:
The man who holds the point toward
him and close up against his shirt
front Is slow and likes to have secrets.
lie Is the kind OF man who when the
dearest girl In tho world finds out that
there are "othcrS" and asks him who
they are and what he means by call
Ing on them Will assume an mir Of OK
ccssive dignity.
The mnn who holds the pencil out
at arms length und whittlcs away at
it, hit or MISS Is impulsivc, jolly, good
nnturcd md generous.
lIo who leaves blunt point ia dull
and plodding and. will never amount
to much. lie Ia really good hearted,
but finds his chief pleasure in. the
commonplace things Of life.
He who sharpcns his pencil an inch
or more from the point is high strung
and imaginative and subject to OK
ubcront flights Of fancy. lie will al
ways he seeking to mount upward and
accomplish things In the higher re-
glons Of business and art, and his
wife's greatest trouble Will bo to hold
him down to earth and prevent his

= Tho mnn who sharpons his pencil all
around smoothly and evenly, as though
1t were planned Off IN an automatic
sharpcncr, Is systematic and slow to
anger, but ho Is so undeviating from Il
fixed principle that he would drive q
woman with sensitive temperament
TO distraction In less than six months.
On the contrary, no who 1umDs In

nasty temper and VIII spank the
baby Oh the slightest Drovocntion.
There are certain women who can
manage that kind Of mnn beautifully,
however, and if he gets wife with q
calm. persuasive eye he will come
down from hls high horse in II few
minutes and be 40 meek ns lamb.
The man who doesn't stop to polish

A FISH HOOK.

The Ono You Should Buy ana tho
Test You Should Try.
Tho most common flaw Ia the temper
Of tho hook. Some hooks nie brittle
and break easily. There are other
hooks still that bend. and bend 80 easl-
~ that they "straighton" on every big
fish, and yet other hooks that bend, but
bond 30 hard that a big fish never
fiexes them. and they only struighten
and come away when the full tension
Of the line Is laid upon them IL caught
on tough snng or tree bou2h. These
Inst are tho hooks to buy-if you can
find thcm-and the hard breaking
hooks classlnes next IN merit. Tests by
the eye are quite useless, rs so many
hooks carry exactly the same tints In
blue or black. Test the hook instead
by the hand. catching the point In Il
firm bit Of wood and trying 1t out both
by tho hard, tiriu pull and by tho jerk.
! watch particularly III this trial for
weakness Mt tho foot Of the barb, where
the wire Is apt to he nttenunted over
much and the whole point give way
on strong fish, especially If hooked In
bone or very hard gristln. What vuSty
| depths OF angling profanity, In spirit
II not In word, have been stirred In
boat and OH bank when the pointlcss
hook comes away from tho hard played
fish must be left to memory

THE REAL VALUE,
How All Literature Ia Contained In a
Few Great Books.

rev Great HOOkG.
Young people must every now and
then hear 1t said or see it written that
all the real value In literature can be
put upon small shclf-that IN to say,
The really important part OF all that Is
written Is contained In n very few
good books, nll the rCst being either
unimpOrtant or different ways OF say.
Ing the same things that have been
said before. The statement, OF course
Is not true II It be taken literally
There are certainly many hundreds,
perhaps thousands, Of books that con-
tain original thoughts OF experiences
that arc truly valuable; but. generally
speaking. the best pnrt Of all that hos
been written is to be found In fow
volumes. To understand how this Is
possible we must remember that uenr.
ly MI rules arc tho snmo az other and
simpler rules. In arithmetic. for en-
ample, tho whole science consists OF
only four simple why's OF treating num-
hcrs. We can add. subtract, multiply
and divide, and that Is all we cnn do
to numbers. The rest Of the book Is
only the working out Of these four
rules: thus oil Of the arithmetic could
easily be put into Il littlo page that
one could carry In tho vest pocket.
All behavior, all right living, 10 also
set forth In a few simple laws. These
illustrations will show what Is meant
by saying that oil literature IL contain
ed In few great books. Tho Bible
and the works OF few famous poets
and essayists contain all human Wis
dom. and these nre within the reach Of
every purse.-St. Nicholas.

IS Just rs untrue, neither moro nor less.

up to tho middle Of the eighteenth CEN
tury 1t was just as unfamiliar in the
lowlands as the clan tartans. It was
only after tho '46 that the highlanders
began to settle in the lowlands and
