In Germany one sees students wear ina scars of duelIing swords as proud ly as a field marshal might wear G jeweled decoration. So fashionable has it become, we are told, to wear at least one scar, that skilful and un ready means of income in making ar tificial scars to disffgure youthful faces, sufficiently decorating the young aspirant for honor without tha risk attendant/on actual sword play
 There is of course, always the chance that youth will outgroW it's earlier foolishness. Dfssolute lads rhere are who pull themselves to gether, give the lie to all predictions and come at length into sterling man. hood. But this is not to follow the us- ual course. Habit is an almost in vincible power. The bent and dis torted twig develops, in nine cases out of ten. into a, scraggly- tree.
 Do you want a more pathetic sight than 2. mature man who has at last resigned himself wholly to the call of his lower nature? Instead of seeking honorable success, rising to a place in the worlds work making a name that will live. he simply indulges In the cheaper vices. Abandoning cred1table ambitions he lives to gratify appetites and seek for pleasures. Known only as an irresponsible barroom loafer, he cuts no figure in the world of virile. enterpr1sing, honorable men.
 Age ought to be impressive and ad- rnir2L Ie-but it is not necessarily so. There is nothing in the mere passage of years to give glory to a misspent and useless life. Men pay no respect to gray hairs that are pressed down with a crown of lead. It is no distinc- ton for a human being that he has simply learned to .WalloW.
 The Ieaden crown is going to get heavier all the time. It will force a mans head to the mire at last unleJ5 he casts it away. What Cicero told his generation is as true as ever Hold off from vice, or soon you will be able to think of nothing else"
 lThe world is full of great prizes and objects of pursuit that are worth while,( There are goals and causes worthy the effort of an immortal spir- it. Young man, you have one life to live. Take care that you don't make botch of it.

If it was as easy for young man to support a wife as it is to make love to girl matrimony would not have the repellant appearance that it has to- day It is easier to say sweet little nothings to favored one, than it is to make a good wage for her support; easier to be amiably attentive than to be winningly industrious. A husband should be a. dependable asset rather than a menacing liability; and the same thing may be said of the wife. There are too many marriages which make questionable which one is going to maintain the family: and in most of these the woman is found to be the one to support the home while her hus- band gets a small stipend now and then for his support to the government she cannot be trusted with a ballot. Isn't 1t strange so many good men are blind to the f1yspecks of unrighteous- ness. It may be true there are many married women who glance with feel ings of envy toward the spinsters. True love may be grounded on esteem, but it cannot keep steam up on the splinters of inefffciency.

It is strange that the young woman who designs to attract the attention of young men to herself usually attracts the undesirable kind; and yet. it seems that artificial means for attracting the attention of the opposite sex, if like attracts like, should result in some thing superficial There is nothing more attractive in a young woman than neatness and modesty, confidence and trust, and thus equipped she need not De alarmed lest her own shall fail to come to her in due time. Boldness has led many to rush in where angels would fear to tread, with serious re- suits. The dashing, rollicking life is doubtless pleasurabIe for a while. but it does not hold the joy that lasts. The hazards of life call loud, but they undo many. Companionship is some thing most of us naturally desire, but it should be borne in mind good com pany and good discourse are the very sinews of virtue; also that the com pany in which we are found discloses what we are.

THE MAN. WHO TALKS

When 1t comes to impertinence we differ very much in our estimates of 1t. It has been said that necessity knows no law. and it may be said also that 1t knows no impertinence. A story told by a celebrated physician illustrates this. He had a gentleman patient whose habits he believed had undermined his health, so he asked him if he did not drink too much? The patient became so angry he left the physicians office and sought another Naturally the second physician wanted to know why he left the first, and the reply he received was: He was too confounded impertinent for mel" How is that? asked number two. he has the. reputation of being refined in his address," Not when he asks a pa tent like me if he isn't drinking too much,' replied Old Pomposity. Per- haps you have seen feeble persons who thought the trolley conductor was i'm pertinent because he took hold of them to aid them in getting on or off his car without being requested to. We are a queer lot! The refinement of some folks seems to wreck common sense,

There is one thing the average man has never been able to appreciate, and that is the generous abuse he gets while living and the abundant praise he gets when dead. It is much better to speak kindly to the living than to speak well of the dead. Where a mar has wasted every opportunity and made life miserable to all related to him there needs be nothing said that isn't true for the imaginary purpose of pleasing the nhourners. who are us- ually silent. There is a story told of an old Indian who died drunk in the gutter and as something good must be said of the dead by some member of the tribe it was wondered what could be said of him. As the tribe viewed the remains for the last time no one spoke till an old squaw near the end of the silent line audibly remarked; :; "He was good smokerH' While there is no virtue in this particular sort of goodness, it saved the day. Would that we were all as careful to discover a truth when we feel com pelled to speak well of the departed, as this old squaW was.

wonder how many boys there are in the world who forget home and mother? It is a pretty mean sort of boy who forgets mother; and the kind of g husband he promises to make is the kind no young woman would want. X western rural driver told the other day of a poor old woman on his route who comes down to the gate every day 10 meet him to see if he has a letter for her from her boy; and she has been doing this for several years; yet she persists in daily looking for the letter that does not come It is barely possi- ble that her absent and negligent sOa has gone the way of all the earth and that the letter she-is so desirious of re- ceiving will never come. This is 9 sad picture of heart-Ionging and disap- pointment; and it ought to prompt boys who are away from home to be thoughtful of how motheT-love holds them in fond remembrance whether they deserve to be so remembered or not, and to be true to the instincts of true manhood. Of all ingrates the boy who forgets his mother is one of the worst.

The republican party. which had

was primed TO do the smashing.
"The boy Is very. very bitter
against me. but ! know NOT
why" falterineIy spoke the man
who, few years ago, held the
state in his grasp. "He's a
smart man. Why shouldn't he
be? I'm his father"
No smile frightened the face OF
this hoary-headed old man as the
words dropped from his mouth, for
he continued:
When person goes TO the
races and he sees a certain horse
win, he Immediately inquiries who
his sire was.

against his boy. He was not so
friendly, however, TO the progress

party is to be rid OF the vermin,"
