NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS.

Most New-year's resolutions
fail because they are wrong ones
People are often surprisingly un-
aware Of their own faults, frailties
and mannerisms. The girl Of af-
fectionate disposition but untidy
habits is likely to resolve to be
kind to her mother, when it would
be better if she covenanted with
herself to keep her room in order.
The boy who stands second in his
class resolves ambitiously to stand
first, when perhaps determine
ton always to wash his hands be-
fore going to the table would be
more appreciated. We are all
prone to make the resolves that
are most attractive to us, and to
neglect distasteful matters; and
this is one of the reasons for the
progress and the discomfort of
the world.
Ii each person could make a
New-year's resolution for some
one else, there would no doubt be
a vast Improvement in human
conduct. perhaps in human ma
ture. This seems to be an i'm
practicable arrangement. Yet
there ought to be ways of giving
greater efficiency and durability
to New Years resolutions.
For one thing, nobody should
make too many of them. Every
one knows what place is paved
sYith good intentions. The more
numerous your resolutions, the
more likely will you be to feel JUS
titled under temptation in break
ing any one OF them-for you,will
have others to fall back on. Be-
fore you know it, they will all be
gone. One small and sound re-
solve, firmly kept, is worth a
whole first page of promises in
the brand-new diary"
