But while live be true.
The man who thinks 1t no harm to
break engagements and keep people

Where is the prudent girl who would

If a man has the least interest in a
young woman, who regards him as a
pleasant acquaintance, and she invites
him to call upon some particular eve

be at leisure, if he respects his word
he will take good care not to forfeit

Whv LanuuaueA Differ,

An interesting contribution to the
discussion of a universal language is
offered by the Montreal Family Her
aid. The adoption of universal lam
guage, purely spoken by all who use
it, is made difficult by the fact that
there are physical differences of an
important character between the diff
ferent races. The vocal organs are
so unlike in different peoples that
language originally uniform would
soon change in the mouths of the va
rious nations, until they could no
longer understand one another. II
the Italian language could be taught
to all Chinese or Russians it would
change so rapidly that in few years
no one would recognize it as Italian.
One theory to account for this fact is
that the people in the chilly north
speak with the lips nearly closed, and
that those who live in milder climates
give free articulation by opening the
mouth.

When she watches and waits for him
who comes not, having made many
dainty costly preparations, the least
that he can do to prove that he is a
gentleman whose intentions are
worthy is to send her a telegram or
write her few lines of regret and ex-

she expected him. He is in honor
bound to close his note by asking for
those unforeseen circumstances pre-

often makes a still more careless,
faithless husband. A young woman
may try her best to blind herself to
this truth. Make excuses for his short

the same. The thought of seeing her

WHY HE HAS TO SETTLE DOWN

Whatever of gain or of loss you have met
With the others who go your way.
Keep out of the past, from the first to
the last,
And away from the worries stay.
So burdened is life with its might-have
beens
Its many outs and it's many ms,
Stop and reflect. if you would not be
wrecked
BY your own or another's sins.
While the majority of men are care
free and as happy as the day is long.
they laugh at the advice of friends
who urge them to recollect that it's
time they were settling down" In
their own hearts they know it is
true, but fight shy of admitting it.
The free lance is a single man, no
wife to cater to, no responsibilities
for the upkeep of home to hamper
him, no children or home to shoulder
the responsibility Of. He can roam
where his fancy wills, admiring each
and every one of the beautiful women
who fit across his path, hying away
to new scenes when his friendship
shows warning of dropping into a
tenderer sentiment.
Thus life goes on with him until
by accident Cupid's intent (call it

unknowingly to the feet of one
woman and 10! the habits, ambition,
determination of a lifetime melts in

with the one idea-to win this wom-

Ting down, cutting loose from the
friends and habits holding such a
tenacious grip upon him, giving up
old pursuits and what, up to now, he
had always considered his pleasures
to gain the commentator of one
woman.
If love will not cause a man to
settle down nothing in this world
will.
All at once the scales that have
been covering his eyes drop from
them. He realizes he is not getting

to feel the need of home and one
true woman therein to whom he is
dear, one loving heart all his own to
which he may anchor his hopes. Half
of the world of men would be roam
ers if it were not for some sweet
woman who has come into their lives
Unexpectedly, making havoc of all
their plans and theories and decisions
that the life they were leading suited
them, therefore change it they would
not.
To form the resolution that he will
settle down is the most praiseworthy
stand a man can take. 1t is not until
then that he plants the seed Of true
happiness.
He thanks God and the dear wife
by his side that he realizes the ne
cessity of settling down, making life
one grand, sweet song. 1t is never
too late for the man who has pro-
crastinated to retrieve. Wed and set

WHY ICEBERGS ARE INVISIBLE
Certain Conditions of Light and Sky
Make 1t impossible to Detect
Their Presence.

Many vessels are lost by collisions
with icebergs because, under certain
conditions Of sky and light, the bergs
are quite invisible. 1t is recalled that
on the occasion of the famous Titanic
disaster, although the ships black hull
was clearly visible to survivors at a
distance of several miles, they could

Scientific observers claim that on
clear, starry night the bergs are SO
near the same color as the sky that
they are totally invisible. The same
condition holds true under many con-
ditions of cloudiness, the only excep-
ton being when the side of the berg
viewed is in such shadow that It shows
black against the sky. In other words,
it is impossible to see white against
