DON'T WHINE.

In the conflict of life on its great bat

You Will have to climb many a rug

But with Truth your motto and JUS

You may triumph Mt last. If you don't
stop 10 whine.
If you're too weak to stand in the
front of the fight.
Where the bright, FURNISHED blades
of the foeman doth shine,
You may fall in the ranks and still
stand for the right
You may still be hero-but not IL
you whine.
Don't wait for the cheers of your COM
rades. my boy;
Don't suiN If not praised--Iet your
work be divine;
The reward is in doing--in CONFLICT the
joy;
And God Iikes-ue all Iike--the man
who doesn't whine.

1858 the Archduchess Maria Theresa of
Austria Este. by whom he has three
sons and six daughters. Since he was
seriously wounded at the battle Of
Helmstadt in the war against Prussia
by bullet which has never been ex-
tracted--he has played little part in
military matters and is seldom to be
seen in uniform. He is an enthusiastic
practical farmer, and by pubic
speeches and other means has used all
his influence on behalf of agriculture
and industry. He is especially devoted
to the development of waterways and
has fought consistently for the claims
of Bavaria in this respect. Hitherto he
has taken little or no interest in art.
for which Munich. his capital city, is
so widely famous. He enjoys general
popularity. which doubtless encouraged
the advocates of the idea that he
should be made not only Regent, but
King.

recourse was had. 1t was evidently
too much trouble. Fourteen years is

tnat any story an unscrupulous
lawyer and his convict client might

that the name of a good woman was

her husbands alleged martyrdom for
an unfaithful wife, being published
