PEARLS.
Graduating Essay Read by Miss Ros
Davis at Close of Brandon School.

Pearls are colcareous concretion
of peculiar lustre, produced by certai
moIlusks They are valued as Objects
of personal ornaments They are en-
bedded in the depths of the ocean
and therefore, are made more val
liable by the labor required to obtain
them. Think of the labor that thous
ands of divers are expanding each
day to obtain these exuqisie gems
These divers place themselves in
great danger while under the water
for they are exposed to the attacks
of sharks and other man-eating fish.
After having dived ito the depths of
the sea to procure the pearls, their
work is not complete, for the stones
have to be taken out of the shell and
sorted as to color, weight and value.
So it is in life, everything of value
to mind or character has to be strug-
gIed for. The pure pearls of charact-
er have to be obtained by self de-
NAL, patience, usefulness and sacri
flee
To train the mind and bring forth
the brightest luster, many pleasures
must be foregone, days of strenuous
study must be lived and nights de-
prived of ease when the midnight oil
is burned or the candle is wasted to
it's socket. Some one has said that
Genius is work" BY long labors
and perseverance, pearls of thought
are evolved which exert powerful i'm
fluences over the universe. The di-
vers into the literature of the past as
we'll as the present century, have
given us pearls of thought which can
never die, for as the pearls of the
sea go out into all the world to lend
their buster, SO do these pearls of
thought, from our great thinkers, cast
their spell upon our lives and help to
mold our character
Did you ever think what the valu-
able pearls given us by Homer, Mil
ton, Scott, Tennyson and others, cost
them?
Homer was blind, yet the songs Of
nature, which sung themselves in hi
SOUL were given to all generations In
musical verse.
Milton, though blind labored until
he gave to the world pearls from his
great intellect. In his poem entitled
A'Lycidas," which he wrote in memory
of his college chum, companion and
most intimate friend, he shows us
what real love and grief are. Then
i'm his Paradise Lost and in Paradise
Regained are pearls of thought to be
stored up in the mind as food upon
which it may feed.
Scott was urged into writing the
great Waverly Novels by the pinnhed
ed conditions OF his financial means.
Who has not read his Lady OF the
Lake?'' A true picture OF the hospi-
tally of the century past and OF the

love banished all sense Of external
things. They had found a new heav-
en- and a new earth, and pain and
tears had fed away.
Clement and Marion have been mar
ried a year, but Esther is waiting
still. She has had several offers, but
she remains true to her ideal. Her
mother has been angry with her
again and again.
You are not engaged is her stock
argument; then what reason on
earth can you have for refusing?"
1t is in vain that she pleads that
marriage is a sacrament-not a mere
business transaction; but her mother
either cannot or will not understand.
Esther, however, remains quite u n
rufled and quite happy. No doubts
disturb her serenity. She believes as
firmly in the constancy Of G%rayton's
owe as in her own.
She wears no ring. There is no
engagement in the usual a%cceptation
OF that term. There is something
deeper-something more sacred. In
the little time they were together in
Liverpool they promised each other
in the most sacred way that they
would be true to each other till death.
That was their betrothal, and it is
as sacred to both as a marriage tie.
Grayton often wonders whether he
will ever be in a position to claim
his bride, and often his heart turns
longingly towards St. Chloe, but he
wears a cheerful face in spite Of pow
erty and hard work, and has always
a CHEEKY word for the suffering and
poor of his flock.
Sir Anthony Treleven chuckles to
himself sometimes when he sees Es-
Their In the village or in the church.
The living Of st. Chloe Is in Sir An
thongs gift, and he intends it for
Grayton when the vicar takes his
long-delayed departure.
BY latest accounts that departure
is close at hand, the doctors having
abandoned all hope.
Esther knows nothing of what is in
~ AA<AAoAy > A4ll1u. DIG Is quite
content to leave her future in tho
hands Of God. People say she looks
younger than when she was only
nineteen, and she herself declares she
feels no older.
In the judgment of many of her
friends she has sacrificed a great deal
and they talk OF her still as being de-.
ficient in worldly wisdom. But sha
herself feels that she has sacrificed
nothing, but that, on the contrary,
she has gained UNNECESSARILY by be-
Ing true to her highest self.
The ieshly and sensuous see only
the things of flesh and sense. But
she has reached a higher plane, and
discovered, to her abiding peace,
the truth to flesh and sense un-
known;
That life is ever lord of death,
And love can never lose it's own.

PREVENTING PAINT TROUBLES.

LESS MEAT
Advice Of Family Physician.

Formerly people thought meat nee
essary for strength and muscular
vigor.
The man who worked hard was sup
posed to require meat two or three
times q day. Science has found out
differently.
It is now a common thing for q fam.
lily physician to order less meat, as in
the following letter from a N. Y. man.
Il had suffered for years with dys-
pepsia and nervousness. My physician
advised me to eat less meat and
greasy foods generally. l tried several
things to take the place Of my usual
breakfast Of chops, fried potatoes, etc.,
but got NO relief until I tried Grape
Nuts food.

benefited my health far more than the

before.

than they had been for years, and We

Grape-Nuts.

No account Of travel in Labrador

ton of the terrible pest of mosquitoes.
These were always present in i'm
1nense swarms from the beginning Of
our trip to the end, and sometimes
they made life almost unbearable.
Nothing could be heard but their
buzzing. Whenever we attempted to
eat they were down our threats and
in our eyes and faces, and in spite of
our head nets and fly dope we were
always badly bitten. The natives
seemed to mind them almost as much
as we did, their remedy being rancid
seal oil. I I'm satified that were one
SO unfortunate as to be caught out at
night without protection he would be
either crazy or dead by morning.
Our tents we're provided with a fine
mesh bobbinet inner tent, but some
would always find their way inside or
come up from the ground. At times
Our light SO attracted them we went
outside to g If it were not raining,
for the constant tapping of the mos.
quitoes against the canvas sounded so
exactly like rain that it was impossi.
BILE to tell the difference.
On many nights I had to give up
the observation Of stars for latitude
and longitude because a candle could
not be kept lit long enough to adjust
the artificial horizon. We unfortu.
nately had no chimney and the mos.
quitoes swarmed so thickly that with.
out this protection the flame was
quickly smothered. There were but
few nights cool enough to afford us
any relief; We found that it required
a temperature within a few degrees of
actual freezing to subdue them.
