"Here is a story of a Chicago woman who says that present marriage laws make woman the slave of man," said the square-jawed matron as she looked up from the newspaper. 1 "Why don't they enforce the law, I then?" meekly said Mr. Henpeck.?

"Just fancy, my twin brother is also a poet. ^ "Yes?" commented the editor drily; "then there is some truth in the old saying that misfortune never come singly." , Young doctor (breathlessly)?1 am told that a gentleman who lives in this house has just broken a leg. Resident?Yes, you are a carpenter? Young doctor?A carpenter. No, I'm a surgeon. Resident?We want a carpenter, not a doctor. It's a wooden leg. The Highest Ambition. Have you ever set yourself to a task, with the idea before you that you would do that tusk better than anybody else could do it, and have , you worked at it with that euthusi\ astic pleasure that knows nothing v but success, then accomplish it with a satisfaction and a feeling that you had done it so that the most critical would approve? If you have, you have known one of the great pleasures of living, for after all if we are not able to get pleaseure out of work we will never know what real pleasure is. it Is more often than not that a man attacks a task with the sole idea to accomplish it, to finish it in j the shortest time possible or even in j good fashion and do it well; but it j is the ambition to do it better that j brings with its accomplishment the f greatest amount of pleasure.Given i a job at which we must earn our | daily bread, and given the know- ' ledge of how we must set about to accomplish the end, there is often littjeeise before the eyes of the over- jj setvr or superintendent, and though j; the work may be done successfully f , and well though there may be no \ ** room for complaint at the office there I is still room for improvement in that j room or mill, and that improvement will come, not with a radical change in the methods in vogue, but, in the ; attitude of the overseer or superin- tendent to his work. The man is familar to us all who starts his room in the morning and j stops it at night feeling thatnnother day's work is done feels simply that ( he has come to the end of another day, and that in the morning it must all start over again, with the pleasure of seeing the night come when his work will cease. It is the l case everywhere, and it the exception to find when stopping time comes that the accomplishment of j a certain task is looked hack at ' with proud pleasure, and the taking up of work in the morning is anticipated because it is going to bring ? up some new phase of work, some j new question as to the best way in j which to accomplish an end, and a new puzzle to solve. It is the pleasure of combatting the methods I and accomplishments of others, the I reeling of comparing results with ' results obtained by others, and the constant ambition ever present that whatever must be done must bedone better than anybody will do that same thing that marks success. It "*r has always been this way, we can \ T-V see it illstrated in the lives of any of the great men whose biographies we read, and we can see It illustrated in the everyday life any success- * fill man whom we may observe, and It Is going to he necessary to the success of our own lives, and the proper accomplishmelnt of an> ambition we may have.
