try to put their good qualities and
kindly acts in your account of them,

In case the grocer was busy and for

"bad luck" when you pay by check.
When your bank book is balanced the
indorsed and cancelled check is re-
turned to you and is a legal receipt

Protection for Canary.

Canaries kept in cages are apt to
get a minute red insect in the feath-
ers, especially under the wings; when
such is the case. the bird should have
little insect powder sprinkled under
the wing, and the cage should be
scalded out, and dried thoroughly in
the sun, or before the fire. A small
bag of sulphur should be hung up in
side the top of the cage.

Endurance,

Whether it may seem paradoxical
or not, it is fact in our nature that
without endurance life ceases to be

comes a life not worth having or
