ness if generally superficial
because we care little or
nothing for those we try to
be polite to. It is assumed.
But if we are interested in
those at home and are anxious
to make their lives pleasant,
we will endeavor to give ex-
preston to that interest, and
in doing that we will be doing
a really polite thing for such
feelings. The cultivation OF
this expression will be the
best possible education in
true politeness.

Infdelity is a moral Desert
of Sahara; nothing grows in
il but sand. What has it done?
What light has it flashed into
darkness? What hope has it
given to the despairing?
What pardon has it brought
to guilt? What knowledge
has it taught-what goodness
shown? None. Nor can it.
A negative has no positive
force-an eunuch might as
well try to beget children.

the gutter, a gambler from

The Most Beautiful FLAG.

In village school in the Acadian
region of Nova Scotia the young lady
teacher, who was from a portion of
Canada more remote from the United
States than the section she was in,
was on one occasion preparing for a
little celebration of empire day. Call
ing one of the boys, she gave him a
coin and said to him:
"Take this, please, and go out and
get us the prettiest flag you can find"
She had no idea, Of course, of his
procuring anything else than British
flag, and her establishment was great.
therefore, when the boy came back
with a small edition of the stars and
stripes.
"What have you there?' the teacher
asked sharply. did you suppose !
sent you for anything else than the
flag of your country?"
"Why," answered the boy. "you told
me to get the prettiest flag 1 could find,
and there was nothing else so pretty as
this"
The boys judgment was unpreju-
diced, at any rate. for he was Cana
dian.

Whv Thew Don't Desert.

Instances of desertion from the
army in Mexico are very rare and for
the best of reasons" said Senior Jose
de Minaldez of Nueva Leon.
''The reason lies in the almost sure
capture of the fugitive and the certain
" that he will get not one but numer-
Gus foggings on his bare back. These
1ashings are done in the presence OF
the comrades Of the deserter, and when
the men see how great is the suffering
of the miserable wretch who tried in
vain to quit his military obligations
they are forced to conclude that it is
better to stick to the army than to un-
dergo such a terrible eal."-Balti-

Company Garb.

100 many or us seem TO ACT
on the principle thatanything
is good enough for those we
associate with at home.
They are ''our folks" and it
doesn't matter what we say
or do, or how we say or do it,
when no outsider is present.
We have our everyday
clothes and manners on then.
When some one calls we put
on our company garb, and
are very different persons.
We hardly know each other,
so great is the TRANSFORMED
ton. We are polite to each
other. We are a charming
family, as our visitors pro-
badly think, because of the
harmony that exists. But
when the door is closed on
our visitors we draw a breath
of relief and feel at liberty to
relapse into our old ways
again. We are SO unused to
company ways that we do not
feel at home in them. But
this is all wrong. We ought
to consider home and all the
members of the household as
entitltd to the first cOnsidera-
tion in all things. What are
those we meet in society to
us that we shonld take such
pains to be agreeable to them
and neglect those who have
the strongest claim upon usi
It all comes about because
we have got into a wrong
way of thinking. We have
put the home into the back
ground when it should occupy
the foremost place in our
thoughts. We should strive
to make ourselves such pleas
ant members of the house
hold band that our absence is
like the loss of the sunshine
from a summer day. We can
do it and we will do it if we
enter into the right spirit of
home. The idea seems to
exist among us that to be
polite to each other in the
family circle is foolish and
like putting on airs. - e
must rid ourselves of this
notion and act on the princi-
pie that whatever helps to
make our intercourse pleas
anter outside the family circle
should be brought into use
there. Pc should avail our
selves of any and everything
that can be used to advantage
in our daily intercourse. It
is no exhibition of airiness to
say "thank you," or eff you
please. These little cour-
tesies are indications of re-
finement, and costing nothing
they help to make the wheels
of life move more smoothly.
It is in the simple, honest ex-
preston of the genuine feel
ings of the heart which is in

to eat or to sleep properly
indeed, often sit up so late
aud get SO tired that they
can't sleep. These persons,
whether old or young, need
to learn the following simple
rules. I. Never fret yourself
nor anybody else. 2. Never
indulge in fits of passion, nor
the blues. 3. Never do things
in a confused hurry. 4. Eat
regularly, cheerfully, moder-
ately, but don't eat what is
indigestible. Don't cut short
your sleep. Get eight
hours of it in clean, well-ven-

need. Z. Be self-controlled,
calm, hopeful. Keep a good

A Kind Word.

A kind word costs but little,
but it may bless all day the
one to whom it is spoken.
Nay, have not kind words
been spoken to you which
have lived in your heart
through years, and borne
fruit of JOY and hope? Let
us speak kindly to one an
other. We have burdens and
worries, but let us not, there
fore, rasp and irritate those
near us, those we love, those
whom Christ would have us
save. Speak kindly in the
morning; it lightens the cares
of the day, and makes the
household and all it's affairs
move along smoothly. Speak
kindly at night, for it may be
before dawn some loved one
may finish his or her space of
life for this world, and it will
be too late to ask forgiveness.
