Youth and Age.

To middle age. when we have at
tanned to being what the darkies call
settled people," no lessons are more
delightful than those derived from
youth. And after any slight foreign
experiences how ready youth is to
teach: how sure OF requirements. judg-
ment and taste. At this season of the
year the young return from their edu-
cational institutions to spend the holt
days instructing their parents. and they
return full Of faith in their mission.
How wonderfully decorative they are.
too, 1t is one of natures incest adj
justments that youth should be beauti-
full enough to make good all its de-
hciencies in sense and reason, while age
makes good the withered textures and
faded colors by philosophic temper
and a sense of humor. Yes, youth
treads the earth proudly as one who
masters environment, and instinctively

world tendencies to us. They look
upon US with q certain tender pity. and
have to offer one who has reached the

this seeming absorption in themselves.
these young folk have hardly imagina-

They can hardly understand that We
are as deeply interested in what they

hair and faded charms was much taken
aback by this view OF the matter; and
when her mother assured her that she

her own because cf the ampler expert

quite overa wed; but for her own part
