MAKING ONES WAY IN LIFE
Every Man Is the Architect Of His Own
Success, However He May Be
u. 1872 ..- Assisted.

How many Of us pass our time IN
waiting for life to give US something
instead of trying to find it for our
selves! We even go SO far as to think
that life owes US always more than We
receive, that we fulfill our mission on
earth by simply living harmless ex-
istence and that fame and fortune
should be ours by right. 1t is for this
latter reason that we so often resent
the good fortune of others and allow
ourselves to believe that we have been
Disseminated against by Providence.
We do not seem to realize that 1t is
well worth our while to do something
more than wait for what may or may
not come to pass, that we are the
architects in large measure Of our
own success and that We must make
the best of what is before US in order
to learn the rights to fulfill the desires
of our hearts. If we make but little
Roadway we are quick with our ex-
cuses and are always ready to place
the blame upon others who can in no
way be held responsible. If, on the
other hand, we do succeed, 1t seems
quite natural to take the credit our
selves whether we deserve 1t or not.
The chances are, however, that if we
amount to very much in this world the
credit belongs to us more than to any
one else, even though we do receive as
sistance at times from those who take
an interest in US. The point of the
matter is that we must fortify our
selves to meet conditions as they come
and to do our best to shape them into
and prosperity for ourselves.

Water Was Costly.

One dollar and half for water for
a flivver is pretty expensive drinking,
but then, the owner said 1t was good
little flivver and deserved the best of
waters. That Is what guest at a
New York hotel paid for water for his
auto. "Give me pail of water in a
hurry" was the request Of the man at
the bar. The barkeep set out big
glass of charged water. II want a
pail or pitcher or something" said the
guest. 1T is for my auto. The radi-
ator Is warm and I believe it needs a
drink" ''I'll call a boy to get it," said
the bartender. 1T will take too long"
said the guest. 1--WE got to catch a
train. Give me few quart bottles Of
any kind Of water" -Four quarts were
sent out and emptied. The guest
paid for them, gave the waiter a tip,
tipped the bartender, and then off he
sped.

Counted Himself Out.

The superintendent Of the Cincin-
natl zoo was making arrangements to
feed the 27-foot python and needed
men to hold the reptile during the re-
past. His advertisement was an
swered by serious-lOoking darby.
"What we want" said the zoo man,
us a strong, husky chap to help hold
the big snake while we feed him."
The darky's Jaw dropped. his eyes
stuck out like golf balls and he
gasped: "Yo'-yo-want a man to do
what?" "We want man to help hold
the big snake. What's the matter?
Don't be frightened, there'll be ten
Of us" "Hor onw gasped the darby,
making for the door. "Hol on! Dey
may be nine O. yo', but dey won't be
ten O us" .....

IMMORTAL BOOK OF RUTH
Great Pastoral Idyi viii Live Because
II Is Founded on Recital Of
Loving Kindness.

The Book of Ruth, Is the greatest
pastoral idyl in literature. 1t is founded
on loving kindness, the loving-kind-
ness Of the Moabitess revealed to her
family, and the loving kindness Of
Boaz, the wealthy Israelite, to Ruth,
his kinswoman. 1t also contains the
germ of that great-heartedness which
is the center of the gospel of Christian
love. 1t Is book that opens with tears
and famine, and ends with the sound OF
wedding bells.
The story turns upon the straight
forwardness Of Boaz, who showed
kindness and manliness to Ruth, a
member of Il nation that was Israels
foe. and in that kindness founded q
new house, the house Of Jesse and
David, the royal line that began a
greater than David. 1t was the first
mingling of the blood Of the Jew and
Gentle, symbolic Of the cosmopolitan
width of the Christian religion. 1t was
the sign that that religion was not
to be founded upon wealth or upon
social caste, but upon the large, whole
some love of the human heart.
Boaz is immortal among Bible heroes
for his kindness, his plain, everyday
generosity, his sense of protection and
care for the lonely, unprotected Moa-
bitish girl, his dead kinsman's wife.
who in her poverty cleaned in his har-
vest field after the reaperS BOaZ gave
orders to his reapers that they should
allow her to CLEAN even among the
sheaves of barley, and by his large
heartedness gained wife, and, more
than that, made a place for himself in
that immortal company who are re-
for naught but for being kind.

At a party one evening married

quarrel, and how, after making it up
with one another, her husband had
planted a tree in remembrance Of it.

No Lamb for Mary.

Mary met little man, who took her
out to dine. ITS mutton chops for me-"
he said; said she, mo lamb for nine"
Then she grabbed the bill of fare and

The Copyreader,

"Student" writes: "What Is a copy
reader on newspaper? What are his

a sort of subeditor. 1t is his duty to

A Friend Of Shakespeare.

America has many interesting, not
to say valuable, Shakespeare relics.
One that is not well known is this

a medical companion of William
Shakespeare, of Avon. He died after
a short illness in the year Of his life"

Infant Diplomat.

My nephew, aged four years, was
very fond of cookies but was not al
lowed to ask for them when away from
home. While visiting us recently he
said: "Auntie, isn't dinner most ready,
| thought l smelled cookies" After
dinner he hung around his uncle's chair
for a while then said softly: Uncle
A, some of these times when l
am at your house won't you tell auntie
to ask me if l don't want a cookie?"
