antagonist is our helper"
How many times we see about US
men and women who are failures at
thirty.five-who are willing to give
up the struggle and own themselves
beaten-and just at the time when
they are best equipped by nature and
experience to win great things. Their
failure, you will find, is always due
to one of two things; either they have
forgotten their dreams and their
minds wander about in a sea of half
tried enterprises, or, remembering
their dreams, they do not care enough
to put their mind and heart into
their work and STICK. The best word
in the vocabulary of any young per-
son is that word "stick." IF you
stick to your ideals, you will win
give them up and lie down on the job
and you will lose your chance of
success and your self-respect, which
is mans greatest asset, next to his
love of God, st

There are occasionally times when
people who think they know great
deal, do not know anything at all. An
old time philosopher, after a lifetime
of hard and constant study, was led to
exclaim that "All | know is, 7 know
nothing" Many young people think
they know it all and sheer at old heads
who volunteer to give them advice, or
teach them a little wisdom. But as
they grow older they realize how little
after all they really know, and are
surprised at their ignorance.

Mans Greatest Asset.

Young people, each and every one
of you hold in your own being the
key of success or failure. And if
you desire your life to be regarded
as a success, before God and man,
make it so. Do not give up the ideals
of your youth. You may have to fight
for them against great odds - the
world may laugh you to scorn-but
FIGHT and you will win and gain
strength with the battle. HE that
wrestles with US, strengthens our
nerves and sharpens our skill. Our

Wife Should Be Neatly Dressed

A neat appearance about the house
is a woman's chief attraction, if she
but knew it. So many of them, after
a few months of marriage, become so
careless of their personal appearance.
And there is nothing more ruinous to
a mans love for his wife, or to his
disposition, than to come home after
hard days work and find her just as
carelessly attired as he left her in the
morning, only a little more so, due
to her work during the day. There
is no reason why woman need ever
be anything but neat. In these days
she has very little dirty work to do,
and if she will be careful there is no
reason why she should spill something
of each dish she cooks, on her dress.
There is no reason why she cannot
have a clean face and her hair we'll
combed. 1t takes just as long to twist
the hair up carelessly, as to twist it
up neatly. 1t is all mater of habit.
and if she would but form the habit
of dressing neatly in the morning she
would always present neat appear
ance, even if she kept the same dress
on all day. Wives owe this to their
husbands. To be sure, the husbands
owe the wives a good many things,
too, but they will be more apt to play
the game squarely, if they see that
their wives are doing likewise.

PEACEFUL DEER VISIT

Eau Claire, Wis.-Citizens of Osseo
south of here, were astonished when
two deer, the first that had been seen
anywhere near the neighborhood for
more than quarter of a century
entered the limits of the village, calm
~ viewed the activities of the business
district from a short distance and then
departed as quietly as they came. On
leaving the village the animals passed
close to where E. H. Remington was
ploWlng and satisfied their curiosity
by gazing at him and his horses for
while.

Trouble a Blessing.

Trouble, in a way, is blessing in
disguise, for it develops US morally,
mentally, and physically. There are
few people in the world who have
never had any trouble. They are all
good people, but mighty untinteresting
unsympathetic and without real
friends. And you never can tell
where they are going to stand when
trouble does come. It's the people
who have met trouble in hand to hand
combat and come off victors who are
the dependable ones. Each new trial
simply adds to their strength to fight
the next and their determination to
VIM And they usually are much more
happy and cheerful than others. They
are learning how to live and their
metal is being tested in the fiery fur
mace of life's storms. When the test
is over, they will find a rich reward
in store for them.

A woman's heart is a savings bank
Where the love you deposit lies,
Gathering interest day by day
From the sunshine of the skies.
There isn't a safer place, my lad,
To bury the treasure you'd keep
Than down in its beautiful vaults OF
dream
Where the tenderest blossoms sleep.
A woman's heart is the place to hide
Whatever you'd treasure best;
For she'll give it back as the years go
by
In love that's more than rest.
A woman's heart is a storage vault,
Where nothing breaks in to steal
Except the honor, you fail to pay
And the love you forget to feel.
A love you have placed there once lie.

And you may for get, but she
Will give it back if you want it so,
And smile as she hands the key.
Smile, but never forget, my lad,
That smile is the saddest thing
When it's over the ashes of some
thing dead
And the heart is broken wing!
A woman's heart is a fortress strong,
Where your foes may never come,
With prancing steeds and glowing
sword
And the hat-tat of the drum.
For that which you treasure she Will
defend,
And loud as the guns may roll,
She'll stand in the breach to the very
end
And then she'll fight with her soul

for children. All ladies are requested to
lend their efforts and give few hours
of their time once week. Mrs. A. M.
Harris is in charge of the work. The
Hadassah is also having Towel shower

rags, and soap for forwarding to Pales-

cleanliness of the children of Jerusalem
especially. This is in answer to an
urgent appeal from Zionist organization
representatives who have been in the
Holy Land and who realize this need.
