Old Time "Wireless."

Old Time "WireIess."
Patrick Malone was having an argu-
ment with friend who was we'll post
ed in history.
How can you contend that the an
cient Irish were more advanced than
the old Egyptians?' said his friend.
'sWhy, the Egyptians must have even
understood electricity, as wires cor
responding to our own telegraph wires
have been found In archaeological ex=
cavatiOns there"
THAT may be-" answered Pat, but
the fact that no wires have been found
in Ireland simply makes it clear to my
mind that the Irish were in the habit
of using wireless telegraphy."

1ry to Be Somebody.

Try to Be Somebody.
The early formation of a purpose in
life, the making up Of ones mind, is
one of the chief characteristics of a
personality predestined to succeed.
IAN early aim shortens the way"
''The important thing in life" says
Goethe, sis to have great aim and
to possess the aptitude and persever-
ance to attain it,
Find your purpose and fling your
life out to it, Try with all your might
to be somebody.
Your purpose may not be very def
mite at first; but, like a river which
starts in a series Of ill defined pools
or streams, if all your aims are in the
right direction they will finally run to-
gether and, swollen by hundreds Of
side rills, merge into a mighty stream
of purpose and sweep you on to the
ocean of success.-O. S. Marden.

Divine Love.
Just as a mother would not love a
child the better for its being turned
into a model of perfection by one
stroke of magic, but does love it the
more deeply every time it tries to be
good, so I do hope and believe our
Great Father does not wait for us to
be good and wise to love us. but loves
us and loves to help us in the very
thick Of our struggle with sin and
folly. -Juliana Horatia Ewing
