When I went to work on u farm Dud owned In Huutoon county. ho said to ave, "I h&ve only one thing to say to you. It Is comprised In four letters. "M. Y. O. B," I asked him what the let tor* stood for, and he said that -when 1 had done something that hud brought trouble on my headt likely I would find out. I vvus thirty year# old before I le^rn . ed what those four letters did stand for. I reckon I had done things to teach ine their meaning before that, but 1 didn't get punished enough to fix my attention on the matter. How 1 foynd out Dad's instructions was this way. v . Jim Hawkins owned the next farm to me. We were both bachelors. 1 didn't cure to bring a woman Into my house to boss mo ; and was satisfied to live alone; but Jim was different; he was continually pining for someoue to 10T6* , .. "Jim," said I one duy, why dent you get married?" "I don't know auy girl that would have me." "What's the matter with Susie Blck fordt" . : . ,, I "She wouldn't look at me. "Oh yes she would." "How do you knowt" "I don't know, but I think I cau find out for you." ' "I'd be much obliged to you u y?u would." ( . One evening I went to see Su*le and told her I knew a man who was dead in love with her. She was mighty anx ious to kuow who the fellow was. but I wouldn't tell her. I wanted her to keep thinking about her unknown wor shiper. Then I went to Jim aud told him that I had sounded Susie and she had confided to me that she had love him ever since she was a baby. Jim wanted to go right off and propose to her, but 1 told him he had better ualt till I prepared the way for him. They say women can make matches, but men arc no account at such busi ness. I have always believed that a man can do anything better than a woman. I certainly managed Jim and Susie mighty well, for I fixed thing up for Jim to make his piSfcost- , tlon; he made It; and the two were married. On the day of the wedding Jim said to me, "Joe, I owe you a lot for what you've done for me In Be"1"* | rae an angel for a wife. Suedldntj say anything like that, but she was mighty friendly. The way she looked at It was that Jim had loved her ever since she was a baby. . As for me 1 ha , simply brought a hanger-back up to the scratch to propose raarrl???; the Jim and Susie were married at the end of the harvest season and I went borne to see Dad and Mummy. Dad asked me If I'd found out "hat O R meant and I had to acknowledge that I hadn't. "Well," he said, I reckon you'll learn It some day^ After I got back to the farm I wa b?? about one thing and another and ritdn't see Jim and Sue for sometime. nTnlWt I met Sne driving .he cows along the road. I expected she be mighty smllln* to me, but she wasn t. ?t,^lft?t *flld "How de" and went on. I Jafthe most astonished feller you ever ?ee H I'd aeen Satan riding on olt oTIhe cow. I wouldd't hare been nrrX Jim pa88ed my how and he Wo was as short as plo ? "See here Jim." I colled to him. ""Saite^enough?" he said, "I thought fMtapff alone I'd a been better off. "Why what's the matter wltb su?' WeH she's got her Idee about what a husband ought .o be and she nsl-t. on mskin' me that kind of a feUer I tried to get something more de - ntte out of him but he would n t talk | any more and went on his way. . I made up roy mind that something bad gone wrong between (hem and Fd better go over and find out what it vu. At any rate I didn't propose that tbey should throw all the blame on me. I found 'am both at home. Jim was smoking his pipe, readln' the Farmers' Weekly Advocate while Sue was clean la* off the supper table. "I want to say something to you two," f said. "I did you a favor and the reward I get for it Is your ill will. If you are dissatisfied with each other I- don't see what 1 have to do with it. Ton, Jim, wanted someone to love, and X put you on the track to get n wife. Too, Sue, wqre mighty well pleased to C?t Jfto and now you've found that he doean't suit you ? " "Who says he doean't suit me?" said Sue with a flash to ber eye. "Why Jim ?a.vs you're trying to make him over." Tbts fired Jim. "Now see her?," he says mighty sharp, "it seems to me that you had better stop interferln' be tween me and my wife." "And 1 want you to understand," r says Sue. "that I am |*rfectly satis fied with my husband, and 111 be bet ter satisfied with you if youH mind I your own business and let us alone." I got out, Sue's words "mind yonr own business" ringing In roy ears. And all of a sudden the meaning of Dad'a If. T. O. B. was mighty plain. Sines then I've minded my own business. v ' , Seared Him Into It. ? Young Widow? Did you have any trouble getting Jack to propose? Girl friend ?

DESCRIBES CURE FOR GROUCH Doctor Finds Uneasiness and Crank iness Are Both Diseases That Can Be Q roped With. Take comfort, all ye who "fly to pieces" at tho slightest provocation or are Judged fidgety or jrrauky or irri table. Your friends, and more especial ly your enemies, may say it is Just "pure cussedness," or e.ven worse. But Dr. Meyer Solomon brings word to such sufferers tHTU they are victims of a disease whlcli'Vnay bo cured. In the New York Medical Journal he has an article dealing with the sub ject in plain language and telling sim ple systems und simple remedies.. "Iu common forms/' Doctor Solo mon says, "there la nothing more than a condition of uneasiness or unrest. The person Is fidgety, 111 at ease, can not conceutrate on the task before him and Is so generally disturbed he does not know what to do with himself. Jt is but natural that while in this con dition the person is Irritable and is apt to be cranky, grouchy, easily angered . and not. at all himself, as he will tell you. I venture to state in this simple form the state occurs now and then in all human beings, but forthe most of us these periods are relatively In frequent. "Many may find relief by going to a gymnasium, playing golf, tennis, or the . like; going to a baseball game. Joining a card game; yes, even going to a prlsje fight, a wrestling match and similar methods of amusement.

To be born on the first dny of a new moon means that the child will have a happy life and be rich. A child born on the second day will grow rapidly. A short life Is predicted for a child born on the third or the sixth day. A child born on the fifth day will be de ceitful and proud. Birth on the seventh day means that a child born will live long, ? but have many troubles. The ninth day prom ises that a child born then shall have riches aud honor*. A child born on the tenth day will live long and be a great traveler. ** A birth on the eleventh day means that the child will be healthy and handsome, and if a girl, remarkable for wisdom.

It Is as characterlirtlc as his nose or the color of his eyes. No polish or educa tional veneer can alter the laugh much la quality and tone, although It may soften it. Yet, even then. In an on* guarded moment the old laugh rings or cadtles, or explodes, and the 'show Is given away. A man to be avoided, to be passed by on the other side, Is the man who langhs without smiling. The man who langhs like a maak or a ventriloquist's puppet. His face wrinkles. He makes a noise. But he is smlleless as a rooster when cackling. Take It from roe, that man is bard, relentless, cruel, malignant. The Unspeakable Turk. ThJs expression came into general use during the Bulgsrisn agitation of 1876; on its appearance in a published letter of Qarlyle's to George Howard, V. P., dated November 24: "The un*. speaksble Turk should be immediately struck out of the question, and the country left to honest Ruropesn guid ance." It was not the first time, how ever. that Carlyle bsd mfde use of it.
