When your home merchant pre-
sents you with his bill do not al
low the the hair OH your spine to
rise like porcupine quilts and look
as though you had been insulted.
The chances are he trusted you for
the shirt OH your back and the
groceries to keep your family.
Speak kindly to him who has
accommodated you for you know
you like prompt pay in others. A
man whose temper rises to ninety
degrees in the shade when asked
for just account, and feels his
dignity has been trampled on is a
good man-not to trust says an ex.
change.

Value Of Punctuality.

The Woman's World appeals to
women generally to follow the ex-
ample of business women and cultivate
the virtue of punctuality. "One of the
lessons" it says, the business and
working woman has learned is to be
prompt. Managers of large establish
ments tell us that as a rule women
are more punctual than men. There
has been a notable Improvement in the
punctuaiity of the home, due mainly to
the influence of modern business"

Charity.

What is wanted in society every.
where is the generous temper which
seeks the good in human nature and
refuses to think the worst. 1t is as
easy to think well of people as i'll;
it is as easy to put a fair construc.
ton upon their motives as to impute
evil. Among the various revivals OF
which society just now has sore need
let us not forget to pray for a revival
of that true and heaven-born charity
which rejoiceth not in iniquity but
rejoiceth in truth.
