LET GO.

By George Matthew Adams.}
 IL takes Courage to start a thing. But it takes greater Courage to Let Go of thing that you are convinced is a Failure, after you have worked and sacri- feed and sweat blood to make it Win. Butt
 Have Courage to Let Go.
 The basis of Self-reliance is Self-belief. If you consider your- self bigger than your Job--if you feel that you are holding down a S2,50O Job with SlO,000 ability Let Go of the S2,5O0 Job and immediately proceed to the si0,- 900 Job.
 Have Courage to Let Go.
 The principle is the same in Friendship. Nothing stimulates, inspires and leads a man on to Performance like Real Friend ship and you are keen enough to discern it--even in Friendship-- Have Courage to Let Go. i Have Courage to Let Go of the little Worries, the little Annoy ances--the Tritles, that almost hourly race up to you and plead you to take them in. Think not lightly of these because they are small. It takes a Strong man to kick them out of the way, 10 pass by them. to abandon them. Have Courage to Let Go. The Active Mind draws tn it. self, like a Magnet. Ideas. The nries and Problems. Some are Useful. some are Useless. When they come to you. Sift them. Weigh them, AalalyZr them-- take them all apart Know them for what they are. Then hold to the Useful and drop the Useless.

Joy Cometh.

Dull care may now forsake her perch, that she has occupied too long; and melancholy's in the lurch, and grief has found that something's wrong. For human beings dance and sing, and dry the idle briny tear; they see the harbingers of spring--the base ball seasons drawing near. The tawdry sports of winter pass, the basket ball, the wrestling game; the tin horn boxers go to grass, the indoor walkers going lame. The checkerboaru has lost it's charm, and crokinole is stale and sere: cen leapfrog seems a false |alarm--lhe baseball seasons drawing near. The old mans wreStless in his chair. the arm chair in the inglenoOk; he kicks
 his slippers in the air, and at The eat he throws his book; and gran ny reads the sporting page, and gives anon a feeble cheer: joy cOmeth soon to youth and age-- the baseball seasons drawing near. The youthful population screams with glee throughout the neighborhood: and boys are dreaming rainbow dreams of beating Christy OF Joe Wood.
 Now every club becomes a bat,
 and every bat beswats a sphere. Spring cOmes--we know where We are at the baseball season $ drawing near.
