z T WAS IS years ago today-Janu-

toral commission, appointed by
congress to settle the Hayes ilden
contest, buckled down to its work in
the room Of the supreme court.
Those still living who were old
enough at the time to take an interest
in passing events can never forget the
thrilling excitement of those days.
Thousands have earnestly prayed that
such days may never come again.

seen their Hke-in 1S61-65-when the
north and the south sprang at each

struggle over secession.
But the days of 1871 were even
worse than those that followed sum

as widespread as the country itself,
war that would have been felt in every
home In the nation, as. from north to
south and from east to west, through

"HERE is a time in a girls life
when she sees everything
= through the spy glass Of exag-
geration-
She is too wretched to live. and
broods over a little sorrow till it be-
comes a big one
She is the happiest mortal on earth,
and irritates the sober minded around
as she annoyed them with the depth Of
her dependency.
She is starving to death. or has cat
en- enough to kill her. Life is a feast
or a famine She swings between the
widest joy and the deepest despair.
She is a creature OF extremes Some
day the instability OF JOY and the lack
OF permanency Of woe viii change her
into a philosophical woman. but until
that time comes she will suffer more
than older hearts realize.
Her griefs are greater because she
has yet to learn that they win soon
Her joys affect her more deeply be-
cause experience has not prepared her
for the frailty Of their existence
She goes through life dancing, or
with head bowed We who are older have
cause for shame that we find fault with
either mood.

1t is old 1t is short. It lacks all
ornament Of language Lacking the
pretty trimming OF sweet sounding
words, it is easy to remember
1t was a favOrite motto Of the
Greeks of ancient times, in whose lives
there is much we should emulate.
It is this:
Not too much"
If that were cut out and pasted
across a corner Of your mirror, my
dear girl, would it save you wasted
ernotiOn2
Would il restrain you if you applied
the powder puff once too Often2
Would it control you in material ex-
cess as it controls you in mental2
If you are hating some one beyond
sense or reason, would IL call you back
to nOrmal2
If you swing to extremes in matters
of attire. If you deal in exaggeratiOns
in speech. if you love or hate to ex-
cess. If your head is bowed because you
cannot dance all the time If you are
reckless of health and thOughtless OF
