GOOD WORK is LOVED WORK
And Therein One Should Find the
Contentment That Is Chief
Part of Life.

II man doesn't love his work, he
had better get something else to do.
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work.
The trouble is in them. They lack
intelligence. If they knew enough
to know good work, they would soon
learn to love it. The manual-train-
ing scheme has this in view-to sur
round thu job a man is doing with
such intelligence and taste as will
make it attractive to him.
The man who is in love with his
job gets more contentment out of life
than any other" says Brander Mat
thews, and he gets great part of his
contentment in doing his work right.
No man can love his work who shirks.
No man can be contented who is dis.
honest about his work. This is shirk-
ing or doing it negligently. So these
things always go together--honest
work, contentment and love of the job

CHAPTER VII.
A Broken Oar.


The white clouds of the later after
noon cruised dreamily between green
wood and blue sky. brought the
launch to st. Agatha's landing and
embarked the two exiles without incl
dent. We set forth in good spirits,
Lima at the engine and l at the
wheel. drove the boat toward the
open to guard against unfortunate en-
counters. and the course once estab-
lished l had little care but to give a
wide berth to all the other craft afloat
Helen exclaimed repeatedly upon the
beauty of the lake, which the west
wind rippled into many variations Of
color l was flattered by her friendli-
ness; and yielded myself to the Joy
of the day, agreeably thrilled con-
fess as much-by her dark loneliness
as she turned from time to time to
speak to me.
Aunt Pat is famous sailor!" OBJ
served Helen as the launch rocked.
THE last time we crossed the captain
had personally to take her below dur
ing hurricane"
Helen always likes to make her
oine of me-" said Miss Pat with her
adorable smile. But am not in the
least afraid Of the water. I think
there must have been sailors among
my ancestors"
She was as tranquil as the day. Her
attitude toward her niece had not
changed; and pleased myself with
the reflection that mere ancestry-the
vigor and courage of indomitable old
sea birds-did not sufficiently account
for her, but that she testified to an
ampler background of race and was a
fine flower that had been centuries in
making.
We cruised the shore of Port Ann
andale at discreet distance and then
bore off again.
Let us not go too near shore any
where" said Helen; and Miss Pat
murmured acquiescence
mo; we don't care to meet people"
she remarked, trifle anxiously.
I'm afraid don't know any to in

my visit"
walked beside Miss Pat to the
gate, where she dismissed me, remark
ing that she would be quite ready for
ride in the launch at five o'clock.
The morning had added a few new
colored threads to the tangled skein I
was accommodating, but I felt that with
the chess story explained could safe
ly eliminate the supernatural; and
was relieved to find that no matter
what other odd elements had to
reckon with. girl who could be in
two places at the same time was not
among them.

His Professional WAY.

The new waitress sided up to a
dapper young man at the breakfast
table. who, after glancing ut the bill
opened his mouth, and a noise issued
forth that sounded like the ripping
off Of all the cogs on one of the
wheels in the power house. The new
waitress made her escape to the kitch.
en-. Fellow out there insulted me-"
she said.
The head waiter looked at him.
I'll get it, he said. That's just the
train caller ordering his breakfast"

eczema for Year-Got No Relief

Until cutleura Cured Him.

Il was troubled with severe itch.
Ing and dry, scrufy skin on my ankles,
feet, arms and scalp. Scratching made
1t worse. Thousands of small red PIN
pies formed and these caused intense
itching. I was advised to go to the
hospital for diseases of the skin. I did
SO. the chief surgeon saying: 'Inever
saw such bad case Of eczema" But
got little or no relief. Then tried many
so-called remedies, but I became SO
bad that almost gave up in despair.
After suffering agonies for twelve
months, was relieved Of the almost
unbearable itching after two or three
applications of Cuticura Ointment. I
continued its use, combined with Cuti-
cura Soap and Pills, and I was com.
pletely cured. Henry Searle, Little

The Vacant Chair.

What sad memories linger around
the old vacant chair. Sitting in the
middle Of the floor, with plaintive
look about its frayed and seemingly
weary back. it brings back tumultu-
GUS riot OF sad recollections that time
can never efface. Volumes of bitter
anguish come to me when I arrive
home in time to catch the milkman
swiping the loose furniture around the
place, and take of my shoes to avoid
publicity, and strike my best toe
against the rocker of the old vacant
chair. Then. forgetting for the mo.
ment my unclad feet, kick the chair
on the other rocker. That Is when
the sadness and suffering that fingers
around the old chair comes out with
an extra edition and great chunks of
gloom settle over me like herd of ILL
natured flies.-Oregon Journal.
