Twelve Things to
Remember. &
Here are “Twelve' Things to Re
member,” which we take from an ex
change! ; Y
The Value of Time.
The Success of Perseverance.
The Pleasure of Working. : !
The Dignity of Simplicity.
The W,orth of Character.
The Power of Kindness. g
The Influence of iL‘xample. X
The Obligation of Duty.
The Wisdom of Economy.
The Virtue of Patience.
The Ilmprovement of Talent.
' The Joy of Originating. :
i oY e
Go Home With the ‘
Ten Commandments, "
* D \our &riticisms ‘of others, let us
remember that we have faults which
our friends have to excuse. How
much would be left of us if all those
who see inconsistencies in us should
clip away from owr character and rep
utation? It is an invariable rule that
those who make the roughest work
with the names of others are those
who have whemselves the most im
perfections. The larger the beam in
your own eye, the more anxious you
are about the mote in somebody else’s
eye. Instead of going about town
slashing this man’s bad temper and
the other man’s ‘falsity, and this
woman’s hypocrisy and that one's in
discretion, go home with the ten com
mandments as a monitor and make
out a list of your own derelictions.

o AT SET OF SUN. ‘
If we sit down at set of sun \
And count the "things that we have
done, ‘
' And, counting, find |
One self-denying act, one word 1
That eased the heart of him who
. heard, i
One glance, most kind, |
That fell like sunshine where it went.
Then we may count the day well
. spent.
But if through all the livelong day |
We've eased no heart by aye or nay,
| If through it all
‘We've done no thing that we can
v trace, ‘
That brought the sunshine to a face;
No act, most small,
That helped some soul and nothing
cost, -
Then count that day as worse than
lost. |

THE GAIN OF SUNDAY REST.,
Of course we do not mean that a
man will not produce more in a weekj
by working seven days than by work
ing six days. But we very much doubt
whether, at the end of the year he will
qenerally produce more by working
six days in a week. . The natural dif
ference between Campania and Spitz-1
bergen is trifling when compared wlth‘
the difference between a country in-
Mlted by men full of bodily and
mental vigor and,a country lnhabited‘
by men sunk in bodily and metal de
creptitude. Therefore it is that we are i
not poorer but richer, because we
have through many ages rested rrom‘
our labors cne day in seven. The day
is mot lost. While industry is sus
pendéd, while the plow lies in the fur
row, while the exchange ‘is silent,
while no smoke ascends from the fac
tory, a process is going on quite as
important to the wealth of the nation
as in the work “which is performed on
more busy days. Man—the machine
of machines—the machine compared
with which all the contrivances of the
Watts. and Arkwrights are worthless"

he returns to his labors on Monday
with clearer intellect and livelier splr~l

It is more pleasant to be invited to
take a higher seat than to be ‘_deprlved‘
of it. It is more pléasant to be king
of a cottage than a servant of a pal
ace. It is better to be a good five
cent piece than a bogus quarter; in
other words, it is better to hoid our
selves at what we are honestly worth,
The world & full of people who never
know or learn anything, because they
think they think they know enough
to begin with. Thousands are teach
ing when they ought to be taught;
thousands beliege themselves wise
when their ignorance is lamentable;
thousands believe themselves clothed
in gold when they are only thinly
plated and the copper shows jn many
places, The wisest are comparative
ly ignorant and thousands of men who
have grand ideas of their own abilities
will some day wake up to the realiza
tion that they have been laboring
under a large sized delusion.
Wi
Young men, the first question your
employers ask themselves when busi
ness becomes slack and it is thought
necessary to economize in the matter
of salaries is, “Who can?best be
spared?” The bunacles. the shirks,
the make-shifts, somebody's proteges,
somebody’s nephews, and especially
somebody’s good-for-nothing, young
men, please remember that these are
not the ones who are called for when
responsible posl_tlona are to be filled.
Would you like to guage your own
future for a position of prominence?
Would you like to know the proba
bilities of your getting such a posi
tion? Inquire within! What are you
doing to make yourself valuable in
the pos‘tion you now occupy? If you
are doing with your might what your,
hands find to o, the chances are two
to one that you soon become so valu
able in that position that you cannot
be spared from it, and then, singular
to relate, will be the very time when
you will be sought out for promotion
for a better place.
@ . E
Don’t be a grumbler. Some people
contrive to get hold of the prickly side
of everything; to run up against the
sharp corners, and find out all the
disagreeable things. Half the strength
spent in growling would often set
things right. You may as well make
up your mind, to begin with, that no
one ever found the world as he would
like it; but you are to take your share
of the troubles, and bear them brave
ly. You will be very sure to have
troubles laid upon you that belong
to other people, unless you are a shirk

work needs doing, and you can do it,
never mind about the other person
who ought to have done it and didn't.

Home should be made the most in
teresting and best loved spot on earth,
not merely four square walls of wood
and brick; it should be the fountain
of civilization, the very word should
touch every fibre of the seul, and
strike every chord of the human heart
with its angelic fingers, a place where
that is centralized on the higher and
better things of life, bringing forth
in the highways and byways an in
fluence that will be felt by all with
whom it comes in contact. It should
be a place where the heart is, a place
where our feet may leave but not our
hearts, a place where angels unfold
their wings, the place we love best,
because it is the place where mother
is. Man can build the house and roof
it in a resistance against the storms
and elements; but the man with all
his genius and artisan science cannot
make the home; that ever has and
ever will be the task of a woman, It
is she alone that can bring to it
warmth and beauty. Here she reigns
supreme,

Whatever your trials and disap
pointments, keep them to yourself;
they worry your friends and vex those
who have no claim upon your confi
dences. Keep a bright face, a cheer
ful word and a hopeful heart. Carry
in your bearing the dignity of self
esteem and let the air of prosperity
fit you like a garment. Extend to the
world a cordial hand, and remember
that life is for the most part what we
make it. *

- Beware Deadly Nightshade Berries.
The berries of the deadly nightshade
(atropa belladonna), now ripe, are
such a tempting fruit for ¢hildren that
they and their parents ought to know
the plant and the terrible danger of
eating its berries. These are the
source from which the poisons atro
pine and belladonna are made.
The deadly nightshade grows from
three to five feet high on strong,
branched, purple-colored stems. Its
pointed, oval leaves vary in size and
stand in pairs on short foot stalks.
The flowers are purple, pendent and
bell-shaped. These appear in June
and July, and give place to shining
black berries in August and Septem
ber.
This poisonous herb is of the same
family ‘as the tomato and potato.
