IMPROVE YOURSELF.

Let the nobleness of your mind i'm
pei you to its improvement. You are
too strong to be defeated save by your
selves. Refuse to live merely to cal
and sleep. Brutes can do this. but YOU
are men! Resolve to rise; you have
but to resolve. Nothing can hinder
your success If you determine to sue
ceed. Do not waste your time by
wishing and dreaming. but go earn
estiy to work. Let nothing discour-
age you. If you have but little time,
improve that little; if you have no
DOCKS, borrow them; if you have no
teacher, teach yourself; if your early
education has been neglected by the
greater diligence repair the defect LET
not craven heart or love of ease rob
you of the inestimable benefit of self
culture.

VILE THEATRES

1t is a question for the debating So

mental to morals, your average chear
theatre or your average low saloon
Upon the whole, we should rather rate
the average saloonkeeper's chance of
salvation as above that of the man
ager' of the cheap variety.
our young people should be taught
to shun the average cheap theatre as
hardly above the "diye" in
vulgarity. To observe the galleries
full of half-grown boys, having their
lmaginations corrupted by the spec
tacle of brazen immodesty before the

When John Quincy Adams was so

Boston an old friend, who shook his
trembling hand and said. "Good
morning, and how is John Quincy
Adams today?"

answer. John Adams himself is we'll
sir; quite well, L thank you. But the
house in which ne lives at present is
becoming dilapidated. 1t is tottering
upon its foundation. Time and the
seasons have nearly destroyed it. Its
roof is pretty well worn out. Its walls
are much shattered. and it trembles
with every wind. The old tenement IS
becoming almost uninhabitable. and
think John Quincy Adams will have
to move out of it soon. But he him
self is quite well, sir; quite we'll

TO KEEP YOTNC

1t is every woman's duty to keen
young as long as possible but unfor-
tunately, she not always knows the
best way to live up to that duty.
Avoid worry hurry and getting
flustered
Love the open air. Fresh air is not
a fad, it is a necessity If one would
keep young.
Get plenty of sleep. Nothing lines
the face like nights Of wakefulness.
Keep mentally alert An intellectual
back number add years to her seeming
age. Nothing makes for youth like a
young mind, save, perhaps, a young
heart.
Don't let yourself get sluggish and
Indifferent. Here is where the benefit
Of massage, physical culture and a
vital interest in life comes in.

blighting weather has ruined the po-
tato crop. Unless climatic conditions
change quickly the outlook for the
seasons crop of potatoes Is extremely
grave. The heavy and contiaued rains
accompanied by high winds, have
beaten the vines to he earth. where
they have rotted and died. In some of
the low lying districts potato fields
are completely submerged. The great
est anxiety also prevails for the hay
and oats crops. Fruit has also suf-
fered excessively.
The revised excise regulations in re-
gard to tobacco growing in Ireland are
more favorable to the industry than
those previously in force. In future
any grower of the plant possessing
facilities more than adequate for re-
handling and curing his own growth
of the crop or in combination with his
neighbors' crops, may contract with
small farmers in his own immediate
neighborhood to grow not more than
an additional acre of pipe tobacco, on
on the understanding that he (the
principal grOWer) is to purchase the
neighbor's toboCca Immediately the
curing is finished by the small grow
er, and afterwards deal with its hand
ling and sale in bond, until disposed of
in the market as a commercial to-
bacco. If the regulations under which
the increased crop is grown are carried
out to the satisfaction of the officials
of that service, the principal grower
who rehandles and disposes of the
cured tobacco nbOnd will receive a
bonus of $125 per acre per annum,
or such proportion of this sum as the
results merit, as Judged by the depart
