The Old School Reader.
(Chicn gn C,hroniclel

Men and women who went to school
thirty-five or forty years ago will be
disposed to doubt the assertion repeat
edly made that no good school readers
are available nowadays. It may be
that "McGuffy's" series is out of print,
but it could easily be rehabilitated, and
any of the Old boys and girls will main
tain that it would be impossible to get
UP q better reader than '"McGuffy' 5. :"
If there is any doubt about it in edu-
cational circles it is because educators
like most other people. do not know
what is good for them these days.

New Year Reflections.

Perhaps just once & year when we
nave a calendar before us il may be a
good thing TO look bacl. over the last
twelve months and see wherein we
have progressed in the development OF
our characters. Have we mora self
control than VIC had n year ago? Are
we better able TO keep our teTnpers? ?
Can we resist our curiosity? Are we
less given TO severe criticism and slow
er to pass Judgment it is pretty diff
cult, usually. to tell whether we have
grown or not We cannot see the
changes III ourselves as other see
them. But, at least, we can know
whether we have trie1 to improve our
selves. Nobody ever made an earnest
persistent effort to acquire 4 quality
or to get rid of a bad habit without
being nearer his goal. Don't forget
that when you fail. Your effort has
left its mark and made you stronger
for the next time.
The first thing. if one is to grew ~
all morally and mentally, is to recog-
nize ones shortcomings. The other
day q foolish young gIrl remarked to
Aunt Bride: II nevec make mistakes.
! cant remember being sorry for any
thing l did She was very young. to
be sure, and Aunt Bride hopes that
some of the shaking up'' of life -.ill
open her eyes. liut If yCu are so pufTSd
up with vanity and conceit that YOU
think whatever you do is right. you
are very much to be pitied. One of
the signs ny which you may know that
YOU are growing is 'eecsnitinp of your
weak points IF you know that there
are broken spots in ycUr fences you
will set about mending them
Thinking too much about how others
are treating you and not enough about
how you are treating them is one of
the commonest of weak spots. Marion
Crawford in his latest book points out
the difference between a snob and a
gentleman in this fashion: The snob
think most of the treatment he re-
ceivcs from the world; the gentleman
thinks first how he shall act couteous-
ly to others" And. of course. the
same definition will answer for a lady.
You must be pleasant and kind an1
just to everybody, and not trouble
yourself about how they treat you.
After awhile. if people are rude to You,
you will simply feel sorry that they
have bad manners. Everybody would
be so much better off if we We're all
equally courteous and truthful end
anxious to do justice, And YOU must
do your share toward bringing this
happy time; and you must begin i'm
iaediately.-Aunt Bride, in Sacred
Heart Review.

The Minister'S Revenge.
(Kansas CITY Journal.)


a Hiawatha clergyman preached d
rather exhaustive sermon from the text
"Thou art weighed in the balance and
found wanting" After the congrega-
ton had listened about an hour some
began TO get weary and went out:
others followed, greatly to the annoy
ance of the minister. Soon another
person started, whereupon the preacher
stopped his sermon and said: "That S
right, gentlemen; as fast as yop arc
weighed pass out"
