Do Your Best.

This habit of always doing ones
best enters into the very marrow Of
ones heart and character; it affects
ones bearing, ones self-possession.
The m who does everything to a fin
ish has a feeling of serenity; he is
not easily thrown off his balance; he
has nothing to fear, and he can look
the world in the face because he feels
conscious that he has not put shoddy
into anything, that he has had nothing
to do with shams, and that he has
always done his level best. The sense
of efficiency, of being master of ones
craft, of being equal to any emer-
gency; the consciousness of possess
ing the ability to do with superiority
whatever one undertakes, will give
soul-satisfaction which a half-hearted,
slipshod worker ever knows. When
a man feels throbbing within him the
power to do what he undertakes as
well as it can possibly be done, and
all of his faculties say Amen to
what he is doing, and give their un-
qualified approval to his efforts-that
is happiness--Orison SWEET Marden

IN A PARTISAN HOUSEHOLD
Servant Problem, Zane of American
Life, Is Unknown in the Gay
French Capital.

1t is not considered a disgrace in
France to be a servant, and the idea
that it is more pleasant to work in
a factory than in a household would
be laughed at. Maude Annesley, in
My Partisan Year. gives a delight
full account of Partisan servants.
A maid is ready to run out on err
rands at any hour; she goes out al
ways without her hat, unless she is go
ing a long distance by tram or train,
and her apron is not considered by
her as a badge of servitude." The
cook always does her morning shop
ping hatless and a%proned. There is
no argument as to what is or is not
their work.; the cook will help with
the drawing-room, or will aid the
maid with needlework if she is
pressed for time, and the maids will
help the cook.
They take a friendly interest in
your appearance, and in your goings
and comings. They will ask how you
enjoyed your theater or party of the
night before, who were there, and
what they wor They will usually
wind up with the confident declara-

MOST SURE OF IMMORTALITY
Total AnnihiIation Something Maurice
Maeterlinck Was Unable to
Picture to Himself.

1t is quite possible, and even very
probable, that the dead are all around
US, since it is impossible that the dead
do not live. Our subconsciousness
must mingle with all that does not die
in them; and that which dies in them,
or rather disperses and loses all it's
Importance, is but the little conscious
ness accumulated on this earth and
kept up until the last hour by the frail
bonds of memory. IN all those mani
festations of u unknown guest it is
oilr posthumOus ego that already lives
in us while we are still in the flesh
and at moments joins that which does
not die in those who have quilted their
body. Then does the existence of our
unknown guest (the subconscfous self
presume the immortality of a part of
ourselves? Can II possibly doubt it?
Have you ever imagined that you
would perish entirely? AS for me,
what | cannot conceive is the man
nSr in which you would picture that
total humiliation. But, if YOU cannot
perish entirely, it is no Hess certain
that those who came before you have
not persisted either; and hence it is
not altogetheF Improbable that we may
be able to discover them and commu-
nicate With them. In this wider sense
the SSpiritualistic theory is perfectly
admissible; but what is not at all ad-
MISSILE is the narrow and pitiful in
depreciation which it's opponents too
often give it.-Maurice Maeterlinck, in

A Game for Boys.

painted and left to dry, and after
wards the numbers painted in some
contrasting color above each hole.
Then the small bags made of linen
or any other material are tackled on
behind each hole, and this may be
seen in the small sketch on the right
which also illustrates the support that
must be fastened on the back.
This game is played with rubber
balls, the competitors standing at an
agreed-on distance from the board
and in turn throwing. When a ball
enters a hole and stays there, the
player scores the number that is
above the hole, and if the game is
fixed at, say twenty points, the first
player who reaches that number wins.
To add to the fun of the game small
prizes for successful competitors can
be easily arranged.
