Tho Secret Of Success.

! Each life should become conscious
OF Its own individuality and respon-
sibility, and poise itself on its own
standing-ground. When a woman has
learned that the center of the universe
for her is where she stands, and has
fully realized this idea of the central
thought of being. she will comprehend
that she can get no further than her
own limitations, and must be con-
trolled more or less by her own en-
vironment. To quote from Persian
anthology: Scoop thou ever so deep
in river or fountain thou can'st but
fill the pitcher"

Motto from Ruskin.

TRY to get strength of heart to
look yourself fairly in the face in mind
as well as body. 1 do not doubt that
the mind is less pleasant thing to
look at than the face, and for that
very reason it needs more looking at;
so always have two mirrors on your
toilet table and see that with proper
care you dress body and mind before
them daily"

Country merchants do not fully appre-
ciate what an important part good roads
play in their business. Let any town i'm
prove its roads out five or six miles and it
will draw trade that hitherto had gone to
neighboring towns People move along the
line of least resistance. A farmer will
travel five miles over good roads rather
than three miles over bad ones; he can go
quicker and haul twice the load.
The following quotation from the Val
ley City, North Dakota, Record, of June
25, is significant:
''One of the towns in the northern

A slender acquaintance with the

Odd Weddlnu GIFT.

One of the newest things in the way
OF wedding present is set of push
