Never Despair.

The most peril0us hour of a persons
life is when be is tempted TO despond.
The man that loses his courage loses
all. There is no more hope for him
than dead man. But it matters not
how poor he may be. bow much push
ed by circumstances. how much de-
serted by friends. how much lost to
the world. if he only keeps his cour-
age. holds up his head and with un-
conquerable will determines to be and
to do what becomes a man all will be
well. 1t is nothing outside of him
that kills. 1t is what is within that
makes or not makes.

It's Pointed Peak and the Wonderful
View It UnfoIds.
There are very few Alpine peaks so
pointed as the Mattcrhorn. Some-as,
for instance Mont Blanc-are merely
large Jumps Of frozen snow, but the
Malterhorn is quite pointed and thin,
composed Of ridge formed by per-
pendicular wall of rock on one side
and Il very steep rocky slope on the
other. a slope which after going few
yards ut an incline breaks off sharp
into Il precipice.
When on the top. therefore, one is
absolutely perched up between heaven
and earth. Never before have seen so
much space around and below me. 1t
is wonderful. immense. unreal. The
panorama unfolded to the eyes is SUI
perb one. IN inextricable mass OF
peaks-Rosa. the I,reithorn, the Com
bin. Mont Blanc. the Jungfrau and
others. There ut our feet lies Zermatt,
seemingly tiny toy village. where we
can imagine the tourists paying their
franc to the telescope man to look at
us. These good folk do not dream of
the great difficulty we have in keep
ing our feet because Of the wind.
Alas. ii is so cold and the position
such a precarious one that about ten
minutes after our arrival we are COM
PEELED to turn our steps toward the
descent, which on the Alps is much
more to be dreaded than the ascent
