FACING the NEW YEAR.

New year resolutions are proverbial-
~ unsatisfactory and shortlived. But
this is because they are too often
shallow things of mere impulse. They
do not go beneath the surface. They
do not root themselves In the subsoil
Of life's great principles and purposes.
Yet the coming of the new year does
mark an appropriate time for setting
ones standard higher. and for build
ing into the very structure Of ones
life nobler principles.
The following principles are there
for set down with the assurance that
all who will may greatly profit by
them.
To be kind both in ones treatment
of those weaker than oneself and In
ones thought toward all people. know
ing that thus ones own nature Is en-
riched and strengthened:
To be generous. knowing that what
one keeps makes one its slave, but
what one gives brings rich returns;
To be patient. knowing that suffer-
ing or misfortune patiently borne adds
sweetness and strength TO the soul;
To think the best of others and to
strive to realize the best in oneself.
knowing that thus the coming of Gods
kingdom will be FASTENED.
To be charitable toward all by whose
shortcomings one may be annoyed,
knowing oneself to be not wholly free
from faults:
To be quick to forgive wrong and
slow to do one. knowing that he who
does wrong is himself the greatest
sufferer from 1t.
To be reverent and humble before
God. seeing ever more clearly ones own
need Of His holiness;
To use every opportunity for the
cultivation Of friendship. knowing that
every man Is worth making a friend:
To occupy the chambers of ones
mind with thought OF Whatsoever
things are honorable. whatsoever things
arc just. whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are of good re-
port" knowing that these things tend
TO spiritual. moral and physical health.
TO grow In grace day by day.
multiplying those traits of character
which are born Of the Spirit OF Goo.
but which oneself must faithfully
nourish:
To have great faith i'm God and great
love for Jesus Christ. learning the
strength which comes from absolute
trust and the joy that is born of love.
The new year approaches great with
possibilities. 1t comes laden with
bounties from God. 1t is sure to see
great advances Of the kingdom Of God
among men. Whoever will make q
conscientious effort to incorporate
these principles into his life will real
ize the best of the years possibilities.
and enjoy fun measure OF it's
bounties. and have a rewarding share
In the extension of Gods kingdom.

A DRY WEATHER DRINK.
An Unusual Way for Birds to Sat-

From st. Nicholas.
One evening last summer I got out the
hose to give the thirsty garden a drink
and, as it turned out, the birds well.
1t was after very warm day, one of the
many we had during the long drought.
The ground was like powder. and vegeta-
ton. dropping and shriveled from the heat
and lack of rain, was plainly In distress
After wetting down tie tomato plants
the hose was turned on another part OF
the garden. Up to this time / had not
noticed bird about; i'm fact, mad not
given them 4 thought But now. on turn
ing my attention again to the tomatoes, I
saw several sparrows hopping around
among the dripping plants. AT first I
could not understand why these birds had
gathered around where / was at work.
but upon looking more closely the mys-
terry was soon solved. They were after a
drink and knew how to take advantage
of the opportunity to get il. OF course,
the water that fell on the ground soaked
in almost Immediately and disappeared.
but that on the leaves would collect in big
drops on all the points. where IL would
hang. and here was where the birds were
getting their drink. 1t was amusing to
see the thirsty little creatures hopping
and fitting about among the wet plants,
pecking at the great drops. looking for all
the world as If they were feeding on some
sort of crystal berries. Thinking 10 help

but this seemed to be too much of a good
thing, and they quickly fitted out of
reach, only to be back soon as the
hose was turned away. How these birds
knew what was going on I cannot saysS
but probably they were I'm the nearby
trees and, when they saw water coming.

how to get it. even though it was a some
