NO REAL EFFORT EVER VAIN
Better to Strive for Success, and Meet
Defeat, Than Mutely Accept Life
Of LittIeness.

Better the sorriest citizen thinking
he can take hold of life, and his faint
spark of free-will can burn holes
through the thicket than worldful
Of orderly persons of regular habit
and contented mien. Rather wilder
ness than that men should find this
a locked world, where all the returns
are in.
Better absurd mites, strutting over
large landscapes, than such a fairness
of CHEEKY slaves, taking orders from
their betters. Better a petty race
should strive vainly, than accept its
own littleness. If it is doomed to
futility, let it at least live as If all
the roads to victory were open
So when we face the push and
thrust of life in each generation, let us
be glad that youth is claiming its
right to live. Let the youth flourish
and prosper, advises Harper's Weekly.
1t is wiser to tear down the temples
than to accept defeat. Effort Is finer
than resignation, and peril is safer
than despair in routine. And by that
high courage and fresh experiment,
they defeat confusion, and lift their
heads above despair. So the world is
full Of homes Obscure men deal man
fully with their stint of work Count
less unknown women suffer and love-
Order gains on chaos. A will Ia at
work upon the welter.

BEST BOOKS TO READ IN BED
Serious Literature Should Be Selected
Novels Too Apt to Leave the
Brain Excited.

Why Is it that the habit OF reading
in bed it SO often condemned? Surely
it is only taking ones recreation In
the pleasantest possible way, and that
is what we all strive after if we do not
always attain it.
Taken in the right way it is an ex
cellent cure for insomnia. but taken
in the. wrong way it forms an insidi'
Gus root for that disease.
The fundamental point is to choose
ones bed books with as much care as
one would expend in selecting house
Nobody should read a novel in bed
if they wish to pass sound, undis-
turbed night The incidents of the
story force themselves into our mind
until we become an actor in the tale
itself, and eventually wake with a
brain that has had no rest.
Then, again, a good novel Cor for
that matter bad one) tempts US to
go on reading until we have reached
the end and know the best Cor the
WORST.
Then the noxious influence begins
to work, for no person, even the most
clear-headed, can read novel Of the
usual length at one sitting, and feel
better in mind for doing SO. Modera-
ton extends to reading as to every
thing else, and those who like to
take their literature in gulps are rare
ly able to appreciate its finer quail
ties.
My own opinion is that the best bed
books are those which are usually
classed as serious works" Under this

Poisoning by Flowers.

1t seems incredible that the han
