Energy and Enjoyment.

Energy ana EnIoyment,
A marked feature of mans progress
is indicated by our broadening view
of the value of healthful enjoyment.
And it is, indeed, recreation to relax
and give ourselves up to simple
amusements that bring to the active
brain and tired body fresh energy.
MeE count it as much duty to give
simple entertainment to their families
Jas they do to provide them with nee
essary food and clothing, and year
by year we are coming nearer to this
idea of the value of relaxation With
wise and proper education in
thought, this matter of entertainment
becomes more and more simple, and
gives greater degree of satisfaction.
In the crowds upon our streets and in
the busy centers of all material activ-
ity, one may read in the faces of the
people the story of ambition and
alertness And, as during the closing
years of good mans life, when his
work has been successful and he can
look back with pride to days OF busy
effort, he allows himself restful
ease-so we. with all our rush and
hurry that have won us success, will
begin to take to ourselves the quiet
and restful enjoyment of perfected
life.

An Example OF unselfIshness.

A noteworthy example Of high-mind-
edness and unselfishness was recently
set by southern woman bearing an
hopored name A resolution was In.
troduced In the state senate of North
Carolina providing pension Of 800
per month for the by-no-means.rich
widow Of the famous General stone.
WALL Jackson. OF It's passage there
would have been little doubt, says
AAslie's Weekly, had Mrs. Jackson
herself not interposed But she
promptly wrote letter to the senate,
saying that the present state laws
limit all pensions to persons who have
not $500 of personal property, and as
she possessed more than that she re-
quested that the bill be withdrawn
and the money 1t was proposed to
give her be appropriated for the re-
lief of destitutN widows Of confederate
veterans. Mrs. Jackson's plea was
needed. and now she is held in even
higher general esteem than ever be.

There are some oddities in Chill

In the telegraph offices in city and

and in many residences, men do the
work of the chambermaid. American
ladies are always shocked to find that

Great Britain also has Its revenue
frauds. The latest device was marked
by supreme audacity and extraordin-
airy ingenuity. 1t had been employed
by distillers engaged in a gigantic
scheme to cheat the government.
These distillers actually used a sys-
tenn OF underground pipes by which
whisky was conveyed to the ware
houses for duty-paid liquor and from
which the whisky was distributed to
dealers. and In this manner were en-
abled to avoid paying the tax of s2.75
per gallon and to reap a correspond
ing profit. The plan was as daring
and reprehensible as the tricks of
American "moonshiners.

THE TALE or A GERM.

The sky was bleak and cold and gray,
When forth a grip germ came to stray.

So in he climbed, with feelings gay.

And fancy free
Until a sign of thaw I see"
