Concerning III Temper.

by Henry Ward Beecher.)
It is not enough for us to pray for
sen-conrol. We must all study the
cause Of irritability. If men would Of
ten go TO a sanitarium concerning their
health habits. they would find an an
sver TO prayer in this revelation of
truth I have known men who prayed
for a good temper in vain until their
physician prescribed eating so much
meat. for they could not endure such
stimulation. So long as they ate
a5undantly of animal food, they could
not control the irritability: but as soon
as they were put on a milder diet, they
were able 10 keep their temper. Their
physicians, by the means of science, re-
yealed to them the cause Of that irri-
tsbieness and their prayer was an
swered. They were not unwise in pray
ing but they were wise in adding by
gienic advice. 1t is quite in vain to
pray for a tranquil spirit, or a genial
hopeful spirit, when the organs of oil
gesuon are out Of order. Not that one
who is suffering from sickness should
not pray for health, butp rayer is TO
ne conioined to hygiene. 1t is in vain
10 pray for patience, and then run
hfedlessly into those very conditions
where experience shows causes which
lead 10 impatience.

There ere thousands who would not
sor moment think of depriving their
children Of the necessary food and
punishment for their bodies. They
wish them TO grow up strong and ro-

would draw back in horror at the
thought Of doing anything that would
cause them to become crippled or dis
ased. Still less would they permit
their children to be poisoned by I'M

Yet the parents who neglect to give
their children a Christian education are

In Love With Misery.

Be careful that you do not fan in
love with misery, daughter" warned a
wise mother. Thinking how miserable
one is because of a trial or disap-
pointment, how one ough to be pftied,
putting on a sad or pensive or distressed
air-What is this but a kind of failing
in love with misery, ceddling it. max
ing it ones closest companion? A hun
dred times better is it to remember that
misery is not the souls true Inherit
ance, and to resolve not to be over
come: then to turn the attention to du-
ties to find the blessings one has.
Nothing is lost and much is gained by
trying to be brave and triumphant to
keep ones misery out of others sight
and out of too conspicuous a place in
ones own sight. The little vexations
even the greater ones, are like some
other things: if kept in the dark they
lose their strength. 1t has been said
of one whose life is long-drawn-out suf-
fering: He works his woes up into
fun That's masterful way of treat
ing ones wOeS-WOrth trying.

A cHILp,s FUTURE.

BY Algernon c. swinburne.)
What will it please you, my darling,
hereafter to be
Fame upon land will you look for, or
glory by sea?
Gallant your life will be always, and
all of it free.
Free as the wind when the neart of the
twilight is stirred
Eastward and sounds from the springs
of the sunrise are heard;
Free-and we know not another as in
finite word.
Darkness or twilight or sunlight may
compass us round,
Hate may arise up against us, or hope
may confound;
Love may forsake us: yet may not the
spirit be bound.
Free in oppression of grief and in ardor
of JOY
Still may the soul be, and each to her
strength as a toy;
Free in the glance of the man as the
smile of the boy.
Freedom alore is the salt and the spirit
Life. ' and without her is nothing that
verify lives:
Death cannot STAY her; she laughs upon
death and forgives-
Brightest and hardest of roses anear
and afar
Glitters the blithe little face of you,
round as a star;
Liberty bless you and keep you to be
as you are.

Shake.
(Ohio State Journal.)

A class day orator at Harvard used
these golden words:
IF we have learned here that in a
real handshake man meets man at par,
we have mastered a social accomplish
ment that will stand us in better stead
than many graces acquired in tea
drinking and bridge.
We like that. 1t has the ring of real
goodness. Not sham of snobbery
anywhere about it. 1t is the gospel of
"a mans a man for a that" and IT
meets him on that plane and puts forth
a hand and shakes without doubt, or
a grimace. or a mental reservation. A
mans hand may upset his tea cup or
play a bad game at bridge, but If it
has the vigor of sincerity and open
mindedness, and charity Of heart. it is
helpful in unfolding humanity for a
better day. Yes, shake, not Imp and
languid shake. but a hale and hearty
shake one that squeezes into the hand
of your fellow the sense of a common
brotherhood.
