The difficulties to be met in life are

past, and we are inclined to believe
that they are more numerous than
ever. How shall we meet them? It
is only moral strength and moral en-.
ergy that enables a man to nerve him
self 10 this.
There are no such specious excuse
makers in the world as this tribe, of
which laziness is the chief. The in
dividuals whom laziness possesses
find some form of resistance at every
step they take. They call these forms
lions in the path, giants on the
threshold, dragons in the plain. yet
not one time in ten is the excuse they
offer for not doing what they ought
to do a valid one. Nine times out OF
ten aversion to any work, or even the
slightest effort, and the clutch az tile
vice, procrastination. are the reasons
why an excuse has to be offered.
II it is a virtue to do the necessary
thing, no matter how difficult 1t may
seem, and do it without excuse or de
lay-and this is a virtue-then 1t may
be accounted vice to put off doing it

Mistake Frequently Made.

great trouble with most ambitious
young men and women is tLat they
are inconsistent in their expectations
An English writer once said: IF we
are born into this world with a good
physique, have good health, and are
reasonably intelligent. we can accom-
plsh any reasonable thing in the
world, provided We subordinate every
thing else to that one thing" To my
mind that is the keynote to success.
The same writer expressed another
truth in these words: You NAV.
therefore, become rich, but if your
sensibilities are blunted, do not be
unhappy because other people do not
show a friendly attitude toward you.
You elected to become rich and &C.
complished your purpose, therefore
you have succeeded" The idea of the
writer was that success consists in
achieving anything one sets out to ac-
compIish, but after it has been at
tanned, the person often discovers too
late that he selected the wrong voca-
ton or purpose to accomplish.

WOMEN'S LEAP YEAR RIGHTS
In Scotland Years Ago They Were Rec
ognized as Real, and Well De-
fined by Law.

Ancient, indeed, are the prerogatives
that are accorded to women in leap
year. They are so old that none can
tell just how or when they originated.
However, the ancient Scottish parlia-
ment gives us a date as well as law
upon which to hang the right of wom-
en- to take the initiative in leap year,
as convention forbids them to do in
other years.
In the year 1928 this body passed a
law which, in it's quaint old English,
expressly conferred on womankind the
right to propose marriage in leap year,
Here is the law, just as it was written
in the parliamentary records:
+ "Ordonit that during We reign of her
maist blessed Majestic, ilka maiden,
ladee of bath high and lowe estait,
| sbale haze libertie to speak We man she
