It is a good plan to sit
beginning of
each day and take a s :rvey of the
domestic field. Decide what must
be done, and what, in case of lack
of time, or the intervention of»th-
er duties, may be put off, and then
set to work without undue haste
to perform necessary duties.
Learn to do it qnietly, without
noise. Be careful to take no use
less steps. There is a vast amount
of strength expended in this way
and nervous energy wasted.

thing was lovely. A man in a lit
tle boat had his attention attract
ed by the steamer. He heard the
music and saw the flags and tint
crowded decks.
Suddenly—and without a mo
ment’s warning—the man drew a’
pistol and fired into the mass of
excursionists. He aimed at no
particular person, but his bullet
hit an excursionist in the eve, in
flicting a fatal wound. In Hie-
confusion the murderer sped away
in his little boat and made his es
cape. No one recognized him.,
and there is no way of tracking;
him.
This is only one ol many simi
lar eases reported every year. It
is difficult to understand the mo

Is there any motive? Is the slayer

would kill anybody, but lie knew
that Ii is bullet would probably
hit some person in that dense-
crowd. It was all the same lo

woman or a man. He simply
wanted to destroy human life to
gratify an idle whim. The same-
spirit leads men to throw stones
at ear-windows and place obstruc
