THE MAN WHO TALKS

Though I am always in haste, I am never in> hurry" and he probably thought it would do his hearers good
 to figure this out. and it may prove
 profitable to any man to do so. The
 old proverb that Haste makes waste"
 is no less trues because of this superior
 truth. The industrious who waste no
 moments are working with haste, yet
 they are in no hurry. He who doesn't lag must be in haste. There is mod
 crate and immoderate haste, and the
 We may hasten to do a kindness or to
 pay an obligation with honor to our
 selves, but if we hasten. to do an in-
 justice, or because of haste promote
 ruinous. John Wesley as7a servant of
 the Lord. idled away no golden mo-
 ments, for Gods time was his time.
 and there was in his faith and hope
 nothing to hurry, him.
 Have you ever thought how many
 people live upon vanity? There are
 not less than 10000 beauty doctors
 people how to eat and exercise and
 apply cosmetics to improve their skin,
 their form and their gait. It Is an
 honorable profession, and makes peO-
 pie erect and healthy, do military
 tactics. Looks count for so much in
 this world that it is a a'debatable ques-
 tion whether there is not more busi-
 ness than vanity in taking pride in or giving attention to one's looks. Of course, a good mirror helps one to cor rect and fall in love with the pose cultivated, but good training deveI- ops a form and proper dieting evolves flesh that excites the wonder and ad- miration of other people. There is no cheap or slouchy way to good looks. You have to be it to look it. The mirror makers live on vanity. and realize more profit from it than the beauty doctors. quite a large per cent nf uyf1n ro nI a nd nf the weak and senseless.
 A militant English suffrasstte re- gently declared Governments are of no account in which averment she erred, for governments are of just as much value as the people they repre- sent, and this may be as truly said of a military company, banking cor poratiOn or the church. Nothing can excel in value the honor and Virtue of it's creators, or it's managers. Govern ments, and really all organizations, i represent selfish aims and cannot be 1 broader or better than those having | them in charge Partisa nism and sec- 1 rarianism cannot create perfect gov | conditions, they do not i stand for universality, Or more than al limited tolerance of the other opinion. I Complaints are made in every state | of the number of fool laws passed by 1 the legislatures and they are the 1 product of weak minds, not the out | put of stages. In the matter of gov | man is doubtless doing the l reason why too much should be ex t pected of him. Governments are of | sufficient account to be necessary for | defense.
 1t is a fact that the public has no manners to speak of. and that com pany manners are usually far from being elegant. Naturalness and ease end a charm to manners which cul- .ure cannot give. An imposing man Hence of imposition, we are told, and dignity too often veils from us the real truth of things. Good manners are the product of the spirit which 1 constantly expresses amiability, and they usually fit exactly. the conditions for which they were produced. H We are all aware that good breeding is he best defence. against i'll manners. The manners conventionally required seem ridiculous where and when icon- itself is unnecessary. There is really no science in scod for these are represented by courtesy and kindness, which consti- ute good behavior And some of our ! greatest authorities contend that tanners are of more importance than aws-that in great measure laws ,pon them depend.

 We should have been surprised five l ears ago to have heard civilization ] poken of as the false pretenee of 1 he nations: but now the evidence of is so abundant that 1t Is a self-evi- ent fact.
