To Be Agreeable.

1t requires tact and judgment, as we
all know, to decide when 1t is best to
talk and when to listen. In the pres
ence of men and women OF superior
talents and accomplishments, or OF
wide experience of the world, we must
be wary and not let our vanity run
away with US. To such persons we
may not be able to afford intellectual
stimulus, and therefore it will be we'll
to avoid giving giving our opinions at
length, unless these are called for.
With men and women Of small talent
and accomplishment we must also
be on our guard, lest they find us d.
dactic and wearisome. 1t is with our
intellectual equals, or with persons OF
a generous disposition who like to
draw out the talents of others. that
we feel the greatest freedom and at.
tain the happiest results.-HarpeYs

opened and she saw her husband led
away, pale and trembling, between

II all she cared for on earth had
gone out OF her life forever. Capt.

1t was only with difficulty that she re-
strained herself from crying out and
rushing to his side. But these stern,
uniformed men intimidated her. 1t
seemed to her that Howard was on

in danger. What could he have done?
or course, he was innocent, whatever
the charge was He wouldn't harm a
fly. She was sure of that But every
one looked so grave, and there was a
big crowd gathered in front of the
hotel when she came up. She thought
she had heard the terrible word muir

in low tone, said:
