WHY is it that come people
ALWAYS see the dark and un-
pleasant things and never the
bright and pleasant things,
asks an exchange: NO matter
if all the sky is blue except one
little cloud they see only the
cloud. If concert is marked
bv beautiful singing and music
with but one false note struck,
they hear nothing but the one
note and are deaf to all the
harmonies that give untold de-
light to everybody else. A
friend may be we'll nigh per
feet in his character and &C
complishments but they have
eyes and ears only for his few
defects. Such folks miss al
most everything that is goot
and beautiful in life and make
things unpleasant for botf
themselves and others.

mental habits of parents pass
to children as a matter Of course
and in families where discord
reigns and quarrels have a pro-
minent place daily, there may
generally be found a parent
who nurses a grudge until 1T
explodes and affects all with
in reach. The deadly enemy
of a grudge is laquacity. The
talkative man may be reused
to violent anger, and in the
heat of such an outburst he
may do things he later regrets,
but he seldom fortunes himself
by nursing grudge. The
chances are he will talk about
his insipient grudge, for he al
most alw avs talks about what
is uppermost in his mind, and
talk brings to the surface the
folly i'm sullcn dislike. If a
grudgc shows itself in dark
looks and surley conduct there
is little hope for a cure, for
even among friends appear
ances must be verified by words
before sympathy and advice
may he offered; but when a
person brings his grudges out
in the open he soon finds him
self the object of a good many
jocular witticistns. and his
grudge withers in the sunlight
of levity. leaving him cheerful
and clean in thoughts, and lit
tie the worse for his exper-
fence.

THE ROCK PILE
FOR SPEEDERS

In these days of freak legisla-
ton, fanatical laws and at
tempts to regulate habits aud
personal affairs by legal rules,
it is refreshing to come across
a new idea in city ordinances
which, hurting no one, acts as a
means of saving lives and re
duCing the number of accidents.
Portland, Ore, is thecity which
is to be COmplimented upon
writing into it's code a law
which has made the place uni
que in one respect. There are
800, 600 people in Portland and
there areCOuntless automobiles.
Yet in the last nineteen
months there has not been one
person injured, much less killed
in automobile accident in that
city. And why is it so? Be
cause in Portland the driver of
an automobile who exceeds the
speed limit is put to work on
the rockpile, for from two to
thirty days. No fines accepted.
If the driver is convicted he
must do his time at hard labor
and no exceptions are made.
Portland's streets are safe tC
pedestrians. Here is an idea
which ought to spread east.

A GRUDGE

indianapolis News: If a man
were seen to stick the blade of
his penknife into the palm of
his hand and twist it around as
if he enjoyed the pain he would
probably be regarded as a dan
gerous lunatic, and several such
acts would land him in an insan-
ity court; yet the person who
nurses a grudge maltreats his
thoughts just as surely as this
man abused his body, and he is
immune from condemnation
of society. Silence nOurishes
a grudge until it may become
an obession, and one grudge
breeds another until in the end
black thoughts rule the white
and the grudge bearer will wake
up to find himself a social out
cast and a person whom little
children openly distrust. The
moral grudge which Esau had
againsthis brother, Jacobshould
bring a pretty sharp lesson to
the man who finds himself slip
ping into the grudge habit.
And if he thinks his grudge is
lust and that by retaining it he
affords himself satisfaction, he
should then consider it's in.
