oSLER PHILOSOPHY.

few years ago the startling as
sertion OF Dr. Osler that the useful
ness of life ended at sixty years of age
startled the world. The assertion did
not check the energetic young fellows
OF sixty from going right ahead and
doing things without thought Of the
chloroform bug. The doctor may have
intended that his utterances should
be taken in a scientific .Pickwickian
sense, for in meeting him one would
never believe him responsible for such
grim edict. Now that DR.. Osler Is
himself approaching the "age limit"
he may modify his original statement,
and with the honors OF knighthood
thick upon him." Sir William Osler
may take brighter purview Of long
life as the sunset Of sixty approaches.
One bit of philosophy lately advanced
by DR.. Osler seems destined to live to
bear good fruit. There is no use, he
remarks, in worrying about yesterday
and tomorrow-today is what we must
take care Of. When one stops to think

from regrets for misspent yesterday.
or from apprehensions of possibly un-
happy tomorrows, little realizing that
between the sunset and sunrise Of
today lie all-important and impera-
tive duties, says a writer in the Ma
tional Magazine. DR.. Osler insists
that when one starts the day with
the first two hours going right, smooth
sailing for all day is forecasted This
reminds me of the admonition of dear
old grandfather, who used to say:
Never get up in the morning without
hearty laugh. If you can't think Of any
thing humorous, tickle yourself" In
other words, let your day begin with
a temperamental sunrise, for CHEEKY
words and thoughts constitute a radi-
ant dawn, that grows on into MONDAY

New Women Of Per.Ia.

net or woven horse hair; her shoes
have high heels; a European skirt
has taken the place Of the short skirt
and narrow trousers; the head ker>

the place Of the "chuddur," leaving
the face heavily yelled: but # was

Brief Holiday.

Joy is like a bird in flight, which
dips in its passing and touches us
with its wings. It comes from out OF
far country and it tracks its way
on high. After that brief lowering
1t will recover it's former attitude, its
speed, and song. It's throbbing heart
passes high over our throbbing, cit
les and frozen hills. AS we watch
that flight of untrammeled wing we
wish that somehow we might cap
ture that blitheness and teach it to
dwell among men. Why should It
pause but never abide? We would
have that Joy abide so hxedly that 1t
would become a peace. The holiday
season is like that. It stoops for
little out Of space, draws near our
dim earth, and sheds its brightness
among men. AS swiftly as it came, 30
swiftly 1t goes again. And yet each
year 1t draws more close and stays
