Tell What's In The Sack

An exchange tells the story of a
boy who was sent to market with a
sack full of rabbits, lingering around
town all day and coming back with
out selling them. When asked by
his mother why he had not sold his
rabbits, he said no one had asked
him what was in the sack. How
many of our merchants are like this
little boy? They have plenty of
goods for sale but fail to tell the
people what is in the sack. If you
expect to sell goods in this lay and
age, you must open your sack and
keep shouting the merits of your
stock in trade. Waverly Sentinel.

little fable above love which has a

Love, so the fable runs, bent over
beautiful maiden, when Cynicism
sneered and said:

her mouth Is rose, but twenty years
hence she will be fat and nd-back.'

The most successful families are
the ones in which each child has some
definite duty in the daily household
routine; not drudging obligation. but
a contribution to the general comfort
of the family. 1t is not so much the
actual task that is of value, It is the
spirit which it fosters. You may fill
lamps with revolt in your soul, If It is
merely a horrid chore to be got

with Joy in your heart, If you feel that
you, too, are doing something for the

CUNNING DECIDES CONTEST FOR
HAND OF BEAUTY.
Father Chose Among Many sultors TOR
His Daughter, but the Girl Her
self Took Hand In Final
Selection.

There was, once upon time. Sem
egal tailor, who had daughter as
dazzling as the sun. All the youths
in the neighborhood were In love with
her beauty, and two Of them went to
her and asked for her hand. The girl,
like a well-trained daughter, made
them no answer, but called her father,
who listened to them and said:
1T is late; go home, and come again
tomorrow. l will tell you then which
of you shall have my daughter"
At daybreak the next morning the
young men were at his door,
Here we are," they cried; "remem-
Der what you promised us yesterday"
WAIT" said the tailor; II must go
out and buy piece Of cloth; when
return you will hear what I expect you
to do."
He soon returned, and calling his
daughter said to the young men:
my sons, there are two Of you, and
have but one daughter. cannot give
her to both Of you and must refuse
one. You see this piece of cloth!
will cut from it two pairs Of breeches
exactly alike; each of you shall make
one of them, and the one that finishes
first shall be my son-in-law."
Each of the rivals took his task and
prepared to set to work under the
tailor's eyes. The latter said to his
daughter: Here is thread; you can
thread the needles for the workmen."
The girl obeyed; she took the spool
and sat down by the youths. But the
pretty witch was full Of cunning; her
father did not know which one she
loved, neither did the young men, but,
for her part, she knew very we'll. The
tailor went out, the girl threaded the
needles, and her suitors set to work.
But to the one she loved she gave
short needlefuls, while she gave long
needlefuls to his rival Both sewed
zealously; at eleven o'clock the work
was scarcely half done, but at three
In the afternoon the young man with
the short needlefuls had finished his
task, while the other was far behind.

But the tailor had reasoned to him
self: HE who finishes his task first
will be the better workman, and con-

him that his daughter might outwit
him by giving the longer needlefuls to
