vance in holiness 1t is lack of will,
of determination, of an overwhelming
desire rather than a lack of oppor-
tunity, that is usually to blame for
most of the unfortunate conditions we
deplore.
We are the architects of our own
lives. Every human being is, in a

is his own schoolmaster, and he can
train himself every day Of his life in
all of the qualities that make for
efficiency, for happiness, for nobility

can train himself as a father would
train his son.
There is no human being, not with

| not, if he wills it, turn about face and

just a question of will power, Of
right self-training, of forming a new

the reverse until a brain path for the
new thought, the new act has beer

For many years there served in the
United States senate man of bril-
liant mind and many fine qualities,
but who was forever estranging many
with whom he desired to be friendly
by reason of his incurably sarcastic
manner, both Of speech and action.
Once an intimate friend wrote the sen,
ator urging the appointment of an
other friend to- minor position in the
government. The senator returned q
most sarcastic reply, declining to rec
ommend the appointment. 1t is said
that he never forget the merited re-
buke he received from the friend who
had suggested the appointment:
My Dear Senator think it would
be we'll for you to reserve your sar-
casm for the rapidly increasing num-
Der Of your enemies, instead of Offer

your friends, of whom | am one.

PRONUNCIATION IN IRELAND.

Many persons seem to see,. or to
hear, rather, something to be amused
at in the soft Irish brogue. AS a mat
ter of fact, most of the words OF the
Irish dialect" are not Irish at all,
but the purest Of English-English a
trile antiquated, it is true. but neV-
erthelesS the real thing. The ears OF
Milton, Dryden, Spenser and CHANGER
would not have been surprised to hear
an Irishman speak Of "a rough say
or "a clane shirt" At the court OF
good Queen Bess the cultured English
man carefully garnished his CONVEX
sation with ''goolde' rings and brave
"swoordes" and bored his friends
with accounts of the smart sayings OF
the "childre" at 'hOom." This was
the English originally imported into
Ireland by the cultured Irish, and the
Irish have found it good enough to
preserve.

TALK AND VISITING.

What sort of conversational ma
terial do you carry along when you
go visiting?
1t was Robert Louis Stevenson
wasn't it?-who said that there are
some people whose entrance into a
room is as if another candle had been
lighted In like manner there are
others whose coming is as if your
lantern had suddenly gone out while
you were crossing a marsh by jump
ing from hummock to hummock and
you couldn't see a step ahead and
dared not move for fear of putting
your foot in it. And at last when
they go on their way they leave be-
hind them a plague Of depression
and disbursement.
It's one of the disadvantages as
well as one of the advantages of the
country that you can't pick and
choose your acquaintance as you do
in town. And visiting is a strictly
country custom. When your neigh
bors are all pleasant, helpful folks
it's one Of the big advantages that
make for a broader, finer life. To
have Sally Sue of the Willows come
over on horseback to spend the day
after the breakfast work is done UP
is good for both of you. 1t makes a
pleasant break in the monotony, and
it gives her girls a chance to get
practice in managing and getting the
meals and looking after the chick,
ems. And it's fine for you. You get
her advice and practical assistance
with two or three little jobs which
really need two women to do them
properly. She is a good-humored
soul with a lot of practical sense
You can talk out lot of problems
with her and reach the conclusions
| that eluded you when you tried tC
| thresh them out alone.
! To be an always welcome visitor 9
woman needs to get the habit Of de
liberately, if figuratively, packing in
some conversational material along
with her sewing tools and pieces fol
the days stint.

THE NAvIeAToR's COMPASS.

AS early as 1854 years before
Christ the compass was known in a
crude way to the Chinese and it was
used by them for purposes of naviga-
ton as early as the third century of
the Christian era. But the policy of
the rulers and the habits and charac-
ter of the people conspired to render
the Chinese Indifferent sailors, and the
compass did not become of great inn
portance to them that it did to the sea-
faring nations of Europe. The date
of the introduction of the magnetic
needle into Europe is unknown, but it
came as many suppose, from the
Chinese through the Arab sailors and
traders, and it probably was already
a nautical instrument.
