WHICH ARE YOU?

We recently saw one of our citizens going home with a small basket of fruit. A few evenings later we passed him again and he had small package of candy. On both occasions we were walking with the same gentleman who remarked to us that the man with the candy was a good fellow, but blew in all he made so foolishly. We merely smiled in reply, but could not help, in our mind, as we walked along, drawing a contrast between the two men. One was smoking a cigar that cost as much as the candy. Burning into ashes and blowing out into the air the money the other spent for nick hacks that brought smile of happiness to the cheek he once thought so rosy and gladdened eyes that still sparkled like thousand diamonds with their tell tale love for him; carrying home, one by one, the sweetest memories of life; building evening after evening an image in little heart of "Home Sweet Home" that no time, even into eternity, would destroy. Nourishing and kindling a new love that would in old age look back to those happy home comings and bless his memory as the dearest papa that ever lived. But what of our friend,

It is not the woman who is forever chasing every one in the house with a broom or duster who makes the most impression as to the desirableness of neatness and order. While she is making 8 martyr of herself in her frantic attemps to always keep the hearth tidy and the woodwork polished, and the carpets free from spot or speck, she is often driving away the better elements of the home, peace and love and harmony. A child cannat enjoy his play things without place in which to play, nor man feel free in his own house if he must always remember ing that not so much as a magazine or book shall be left one moment out of place when not being read.

Look on the bright side. It is the right side. The times may be hard, but 1t will make them no easier to wear a sad, gloomy
 countenance. It is the sunshine,
 and not the cloud, that makes the flower. The sky is blue ten times when it is black once. You have troubles; so have others. None are free from them. Trouble gives sinew and tone to life, fortitude and courage to men. That would be a dull sea, where there was nothing to disturb the surface of the ocean. What though things look 8 little dark, the lane will turn, and the night will end in broad day. There is more virtue in one sunbeam than in a whole hemisphere of clouds and gloom.

When you are threated with an attack whistle "Dixie'' or roll out Yankee Doodle" and we pledge our word for it, you can soon laugh with the best of them.

The advent of spring flowers and
 balmy days warns us of the woe full fact that the rein of terror to mankind is at hand, when the thrifty housewife will arm her self with all necessary equipments and proceed to throw open the doors and windows, order the stoves to be carried out, and turn your hitherto peaceful abode into as uncomfortable a place as could be imagined. Why should we hasten this coming calamity by this prophecy, only to warn the lord of the household to gather up an extra supply of patience and abide the time with becoming for titude. For as sure as the rain and mud are harbingers of the bright, merry, joyful spring, with its birds, buds and blossoms, so surely will this disordered house be transformed under skillfull hands into a fresh, clean and pleasant home. Peace and order will once more take up their abode and the strains of "Home Sweet Home," will sound all the sweet CT for the temporary disquiet.

THE BLUES.

Got the blues, did you say7
 Sure enough! A geunine attack,
 and the sun shining bright in the
 heavens, and not a cloud to be
 seen. We'll! We'll! Come, my
 friend, shake yourself together. Go out into the sunshine and look about you. Is this time for the
 blues? See how gleefully all nature is smiling. Don't be behind hand in being happy when everything else is rejoicing. This world is not a vale of tears. This life was not given to us as a time for weeping and wailing. Come, get yourself out of this Slough of Despond. This is a time for action. Never sit by the roadside and lament over by-gones, or despair because impossibilities arc not brought to pass. There are just as grand opportunities perhaps before you as have ever been experienced. There may not be just as much prosperity and happiness for your future, if you so will, as there has been in the past.
 And what a face! You'll spread horror by such a long drawn countenance. Indeed it is enough to give buffoon the blues, even to look at it. Go to the glass and get a glimpse of yourself, and then compare it with the looks of friends with who you meet, but don't stand looking at yourself long, walk forth in Gods pure atmosphere. Give a hearty good day to every man and woman you meet, @ smile and & nod at every child cirrup or whistle to every dog, and there will be but little more trouble with the blues. The ailment cannot stand such treatment. It flourishes only on moodiness and classification. Sunlight dispels the clouds of 8 murky sky, and so does a sunny disposition scatter the blues.
 Do not sit and ponder over trouble you cannot dispel it by making your self miserable. Never look into the future with despair; you cannot cross a bridge until you come to it. Don't harrow your mind over things that cannot be helped. Live confiding in the present. The past cannot now be and you have yet to try the future. Now is when you must act, if you act at all. Now is when you must be happy if you expect to enjoy yourself. So do not
