GOOD ACTS, FRIENDS.
They follow One After the Grave to
Judgment Seat.

A father once related to his chill
dren the following parable: The
viceroy of a certain island was once
summoned by his lord the king to
render an account of his government.
Those of his friends on whom he
had placed the greatest reliance suf
Tered him to depart, and did not move
from their place; others in whom he
had not little confided went with
him only as far as the ship; but some
in whom he had scarcely trusted at
all, accompanied him through the
whole of the distant journey, even to
the kings throne, spoke in his favor,
and obtained for him the grace of the
king.
The children did not understand
who these friends could be. Their
father, therefore, said Man also has
three kinds of friends on earth; which,
however, for the most part, he does
not learn to know rightly till the time
when he is called from this world to
give account of his actions and omis-
sions.

wealth and possessions, remain be-
hind. The second, his relations, &C.
company him only to the grave. The
third, his good works, follow him to
eternity, even to the throne of God,
where it will be rendered to each
according to his works." and where

How thoughtlessly, then, does the
man act who does not concern him.

WHO TOLD.

Nobody was at home when Mrs
Dover came back from seeing her
mother, who has been ill, but she
found the key under the rug and went
in, glad to be at home once more.
Olga was the first one to find her, for
Aunt Lottie had gone shopping and
papa was at work and Jamie at kinder
garten and Dick out in the country,
SO they had good long talk after the
hugging and kissing were over. When
little girl has not seen her mother
for nearly four weeks, there is a great
deal to say.
The best of all about getting home
is that my little daughter has been
very good and busy" said Mrs. Dover,
giving the round cheek little pinch.
Il am so glad you did not make any
trouble for Aunt Lottie."
Why, mamma, who told you that"
cried Olga. THAT was my little secret.

FRIEND SHIP.

There is nothing more beautiful in
life that the expression and develop
ment of friendship. We do not use
the term in the sense of acquaintances.
General friendship is rare. The
average man feels that he has many
friends until some test disillusionizes
him.
Friendship is a plant that does not
thrive upon barren soil. Emerson
says: ITO have friend you must be
one" 1t thrives upon what it gives.
Long ago mankind discovered that
it was not good to be isolated and
alone; that in the course of a life
time each would feel the need of his
fellowmen A man can be millionaire
and still be starving for the companion
ship of men who like him for him.
self and not for what he possesses.
Wealth alone does not bring you
friends. The men who surrounded you
and laugh at your jokes and call you
a prince too frequently are counting
your power and financial strength. A
certain rich man counted his friends
by the hundreds until he went broke,
when he found that his friends had
flown, all except the old woman who
kept a fruit stand With tears OF
genuine sympathy she expressed her
sorrow at his misfortune.

PAPA'S MISTAKE.

Papa distinctly said, the other day,
That in the night, when I'm asleep
so sound,
The earth keeps turning over all the
time,
And every morning it's been halfway
round
I thought how grand to see the big
round world
Go turning past this window in the
hall,
And here I'm up at four O'Clock to
watch,
And there is nothing going by at all.
I thought that deserts, palm trees and
CRATES
Might just be passing by the time l
came;
And now, instead of all those lovely
things,
Here's this old yellow rosebush, just
the same.

PAIN A BLESSING.
Even Though in the Deepest DISCUSSES.

We have all probably realized the
beneficent character of physical pain,
however much at times we may de-
plore and resent it's excess. Pain is
the great adviser, warning and eau
tioning us when things are going
wrong; it is natures alarm call, her
signal of danger. There is German
story somewhere of man who begged
and obtained the favor of freedom
from pain, and the condition he won
as a boon proved to be his curse and
undoing, says a writer in the Chicago
News.
The child's suffering when he burns
or scalds himself teaches him not to
do it again; he learns by falling the
peril of falls. If he is greedy and over
eats, nature teaches him by the lesson
of suffering that his organs of diges-
ton are not to be trifled with or inn
posed upon. If he exposes himself too
freely to cold or extreme heat, nature
cautions him that such exposure must
injure and may kill him. The lessons
are not always thoroughly learned,
hence there is much suffering in the
world that might have been avoided.
Pain Is the best Of hygienic agents,
the great preserver of life. 1t warns
us when there is anything inwardly or
outwardly wrong; without it, we might
neglect all other symptoms and thus
fall into a condition from which no
doctor could save us. Recognizing
these things, we find at least a partial
explanation of the mystery of physical
suffering, and one troublesome riddle
in life is answered in part.
Between physical and mental suffer
ing there is close, though not per-
feet, analogy. On the spiritual side
pain has a higher ministration, though
it is still a preserver of life, warning
and signal of danger. 1t preserves the
life of the spirit; it trains and schools
us to our best possibilities, it is the
clearest teacher of right and wrong,
the most forcible exponent Of mean
ings and purposes. BY the suffering of
our souls we learn what joy alone
could never teach us. With the body
pain is usually sign OF disease and
disorder; with the soul it may also be
a sign of disease and disorder, but it
passes beyond this, for it is often a
symptom that we are mentally and
morally unsound The best souls are
usually the most sensitive.

MATRIMONIAL POINTERS.

In an old book ran across the fol-
lowing excellent pointers on matri-
mony, says a writer:
Marrying for home is most tire
some way of getting a living. A mar
riage without love is a mockery that
bushes to the skies. But money is
the thing sought for Matrimony is
looked upon as a matter of money,
and Cupid, having grown old, has
changed his name to cupidity. Don't
marry man to mend him or reform
him. If the man were not deformed
he would not need to be reformed.
The man with malformed habits is
more likely to bring you sorrow and
shame than joy and happiness. The
risks are great enough for any woman
even when she marries man who
does not need reforming Marry a
gentleman. | use that word in it's
broadest sense. 1t has not reference
to fine raiment and white hands and
the veneering of society polish mere
ly, but to those who have noble quail
ties, however hard their hands and
sunbrowned their faces. AS you value
you life do not marry a mannikin, a
hatter's show block or a tailor's lay
figure. The dandy dressed up is like
tine cinnamon tree, the bark is worth
more than the body Marry a man
for his money, and he will find it out
shortly What sublime contempt a
man must have for one who simply
loves his pocketbook.

WHY HE WAS HIRED.

Ten boys replied in person to an
advertisement for messenger, in a
business house. The one selected
from the ten owed his success to the
fact that he took off his hat the in
slant he entered the Office, that he
rose when the manager came into the
room, and that he answered every
question put to him simply and
respectfully without bashfulness or
boldness. The boy who has a good
manner, who is polite and alert, is the
boy who is wanted in business and
elsewhere.

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
BOYS AT PLAY: AND THE
SEQUEL.

A jolly party of Yale students camp
ed out in the Vermont woods, near the
border of the State, for midsummer
sport. Returning to camp one after
noon along a lonely road, they met a
backwoods Canadian boy, who was
jogging along with blind horse pull
ing blackboard.
This must be native" whispered
a mischievous collegian. LET us guy
him by talking Latin
AS the boy approached, the wag
bowed tremendously and delivered
generously passage from Cicero
which he had once acclaimed at
school. His companions stood by in
silence, doing their best to look like
Roman senators.
The boy stopped his horse and sur
veyed the group with establishment. 81
do not understand the language which
you are speaking" he finally STAN
mered.
The orator continued his fierce
lnvective against an imaginary Gait
line, while his companions solemnly
expressed their approval in such ejacu-
lations as Tempus fugit! Hic, haec,
hoe! and E pluribus unum!
The boy, perceiving that they were
making butt of him, drove on, fol-
lowed by chorus of laughter and a
shout from the leader: "Have your
Latin about you the next time you
meet gentlemen!"
1t was foolish prank which the col
legians speedily forgot. Not one of
them had an idea that anything would
come of it.
The Canadian lad had an errand TO
do for his father at the nearest village.
He asked the owner of the crossroads
store curious question:
do you know Latin?"
mo. l may be buried in the woods,
out am not dead Roman!"
Then Latin is dead language?"
AS dead as Julius Caesar"
Il want to learn it. Have you any
Latin books in the store?"
Strange to say, there was an. old
Latin grammar in cupboard in the
storekeeper's house. 1t was an old
fashioned textbook. ---
You can-have it." said the store
keeper, but you will never read a
word of it,
The boy took the book and drove
home to his fathers cabin. He never
saw the collegians again, but for years
that Latin grammar was his constant
companion. In some mysterious way.
possibly by having it always under his
pillow, he learned to read it and to
conjugate the verbs.
A sportsman who heard his story
advised him to go across the border
and earn his living in some college
town where he could continue his
studies.
The lad went to Rochester. SUD-
ported himself in preparatory school,
and entered the university there. What
is more, he became the Latin prize
man, remarkably proficient in the
classics, and made a fine record for
scholarship. He studied law and was
successful in his profession.
A random college prank turned the
current of a whole life. The Young
Canadians early conquest of Latin was
a boys whim inspired by pioue. On
tribes light as this has hung many a
human destiny.
