REFLECTIONS.

No man ever had to worry afterward
because he did right.
Those who want much have much to.
get. Those who want little often secure
it and are content. IF you are content
all the prizes of earth are to you as
dross.
An unused talent will depreciate.
There is no such thing as unchange-
ableness in this world. We progress
or we ~retrograde. If you have a tai
emit use it, broaden it n make it
your ladder of success.
To be moderate is to be broad and
forgiving. Moderation is a pure streaml
that winds freshly through the parchedl
meadows of life, soothing the thirsty
grasses that lean hungrily toward it's
lave, singing it's song Of reason and
temperance to all along the course.
The man who is striving in the midst
of things to win, never will die Of
ennui or govt. Action means health,
interest, brain-and it may mean sue
cess. 1t never can mean utter failure.
Only those who give up n rust out
fail, utterly. Defeat is not failure. 1t
is merely the incentive to try again.
The most mellow-toned organ is USE
less to the man who canno bring forth
its melody; the lowers are mere things
of Nature to him who cannot appre-
ciate their beauty: the artistic of life
is unseen except by the man who looks
with the ayes of an artist or a lover.
We must not expect the people as a
whole to admire or understand us.
Only those who know and feel can
sympathize with. our highest moods
and faneies.
Sometimes it seems to you that sue
cess is a long way off, doesn't it
What you are doing gives you little
hope or aspiration, the world is dreary
n unappreciative and the sluggard
"it-ain't-no-use" takes possession of
your heart. But l say to you. friends.
don't give up; get your second wind
and hang on! Success is merely the
application of a stout heart. the de-
termination Of the bulldog and the
passing of time. Hold fast until YOU
win. Never admit you have failed.
Leave that to Your critics. And what
ever o do, never give up. If YOU

. former owner, spent $500. 600 for i'm

cent estate is Mr.. Reid's wedding gift to
his daughter. Before the marriage he
promised to give her any country estate

honeymoon, Mrs. Ward looked over 43 of
the stateliest homes in the kingdom, and
