~ consequence; but, as things are, it IL
the main concern. Our innate vanity,
which is particularly sensitive in ref
erence to our intellectual powers, will
not suffer us to allow that our first po-
Sition was wrong and our adversary's
right The way out Of this difficulty
would be simply to take the trouble al
ways to form correct judgment. For
this man would have to think before
he spoke. But, with most men, innate
vanity is accompanied by loquacity and
innate dishonesty. They speak before
they think, and even though they may
afterward perceive that they are wrong
and that what they assert is false they
want it to seem the contrary. AS a
rule, then, every man will insist on
maintaining whatever he has said. even
though for the moment he may consid-
er it false or doubtful.

A young teacher who graduated from
the normal school last June was asked
one day recently to act as substitute
in a higher grade than her own. She
was a little nervous over the tempo
rary promotion and was anxious that
everything should 60 OF in the usual
good order. While instructing the class
in composition she said: NOW, chill
dren, don't attempt any fights Of fan
cy. Don't try to initiate the things you
have heard, but just be yourselves and
write what is really in YOU"
AS q result Of this advice one little
boy turned In the following compost
ton:
II amt goin' to attempt no fite OF
fancy; I'm just goin' to write what's In
me, and I got hart, liver, two lungs
and some other things like that; then

Burke on John Howard.

Burke on John Howard.
He has visited all Europe not to sur
vey the sumptuousness of palaces or
the stateliness of temples, not to make
accurate measurements of the remains
of aucient grandeur or to form scale
of the curiosity Of modern art not to
collect medals or collate manuscripts,
but to dive into the depths Of dungeons,
to plunge into the infection of hospi-
tells, to survey the mansions Of sorrow
and pain, to take the gauge and d.
mansions of misery, depression and
contempt, to remember the forgotten,
to attend to the neglected, to visit the
fcrssken and to compare and collate
the d,stresses of all men in all coun-
tries His plan is original, and it is as
full Of genius as it is Of humanity: 1t
was q Voyage Of discovery, circum-
navigation of charity. Already the
benefit of his labor is felt more or less
in every country.

the situation. We sincerely trust that the
few of the many patrons who selected IN

time everything will be done to hurry up

slight mars on the cases, which can be cas-

The Weed and tho Man.
Cough used to describe the struggles
Of man who tried to leave of using
tobacco. He threw away what he had
and said that was the end Of 1t; but,
no, 1t was only the beginning of 1t. He
would chew camomile, gentian, tooth
picks. but it was Of no use. He
bought another plug Of tobacco and put
1t In his pocket. He wanted chew
awfully, but he looked at it and said:
''Ypu are a weed, and am a man.
I'll master you If die for it." And
he did master it while carrying 1t In
his pocket daily.
