A man failed after trying long, And then sat down and wondered why; He saw not where ho had been wrong, Nor where fair chances had slipped by. All that he did was sit and guzi Upon the hopes strewn 'round him there And wonder on"through nil his days Why fate had marked him for despair. Another failed and stepped aside And saw the canses ot his woe He saw TI here efforts misapplied Had aided ohance to bring him low And, taking note of all the poet, And taming into newer ways, He tried again and filled at last The hopes of all his eager days. J MY NEW HOUSEKEEPER. ! t _ i ^ Br HOKACE EATON WALKEK. . Of course I do not claim to bs a mod el housekeper; but Adolphus well knew that I was the child of aristo cratic parents, and he had fair warn ing, too, as my father said, on giving me to him, that I was a good girl, an educated young lady, and with a little patience and perseverance could be de veloped into a real helpmeet. "I take her for better and for worse, my dear Mr. Hartshorn," he said, "and I really believe that none of us will live to regret my union with your only child." Of course, we all hoped so and be lieved so; for Adolphus Marston was a fine young man, of good family, and with habits of life above the average. So matters were consummated, I be coming his willing bride. At first we took our meals at the nearest restaurant, as our new cottage was not yet fitted, to the requirements of my fastidious new husband. I had resolved from the very first not to ruf fle his temper; and while mine was not of the sweetest, I being to some in tents and purposes a spoiled child, I decided to hold my peace if theheavens fell. I saw a growing impatience on his part, however, and could easily see that taking his meals at a caie was de cidedly annoying on account of the de lays of orders, the muddy coffee, the impertinence of waiters, and other dis agreeable etceteras. Finally I ventured to ask him if he was tired of taking his meals out. He was very tired, and was now ready for business, the business of housekeeping. "But, Dolphy, may I ask the name of our housekeeper?" "It is Adolphus Marston!" I simply stared, for so far as I was aware, he knew little or nothing of thc culinary art. I patiently awaited coming events, which were now rapid ly casting their shadows before. Not long after this we were happi ly settled in our new home; the res taurant was abandoned for all time, and our larder filled to repletion. Of course our first venture was breakfast, and I wondered at his remaining in bed so late; as it was an excessively cold morning, the sitting roora and kitchen fires would both need tending, and he was due at the office at 8 o'clock. I was later ?wakened however from a light nap by hearing Adolphus mov ing hurriedly about the sitting room. An intense chillness was in the atmos- j phere, and there seemed to be trouble ! of some kind. 1 wondred what it was, but I did not .wonder audibly. Silence seemed to be golden at this hour. Presently I heard Adolphus descend the kitchen stairs, and arising, I insp2cted the sitting room. It was a sight to behold. Ashes to right of me, ashes to left of me, ashes everywhere. I could have sat down and cried ; but as he haa not lost patience why should I? So, on hear ing his returning footsteps hastily re tired, and when he re-entered the room loaded with kindling wood pa per, shavings and a whole box of j matches, I was as unconscious as the 1 seven sleepers. But poking his chilled note through the portieres Adolphus 1 announced: "Hortense, the sitting room fire is out." "Indeed!" "And the fire is also out in the kitchen stove." "Can't I help you?" "Oh, no! I'm the housekeeper for one week. At the end of that tim I shall either commit suicide go to a lunatic asylum or fall into a high fever." After more noise than a threshing machine, and dust, smoke and some remarks Adolphus announced to him self that the fire was going. As soon as he left the room I arose and dressed, not to receive callers, but in my com monest gown, as from present indica tion I knew that the unexpected was sure to happen, and it did. I under stood very little about a broom, and much less about a carpet sweeper, but between them both I managed to make the sitting room presentable. Then a call from the kitchen. "Hortense are you up? " "Yes, dear." "How much water do you put in bis cuit flour?' "Just a little, so it will knead, Dol phy, dear." A rattle of dishes, a noise of spoons and moulding board, then, "Hortense, how much cream of tar tar for a batch of biscuit?" "I guess a teaspoonful." "How much soda?" "I gless a teaspoonful." "You could tell me what a quaver, a demi-serai-quaver is in music, a bar, a bre?, a crochet, a chord, and not guess at it So don't guess a tea sponnful, but how much soda." "Enough to suit the taste." "Tastes differ." "So do cooks." A half hour passed away, I did not dare to descend to the kitchen; the noise there was simply overwhelming. I could hear him bang the roller over the moulding boarcC'then crash! He had dropped a dish, and I heard him say he didn't see how a dish could break into so many pieces. Later I heard the oven door snap to, a few hasty steps, and then a deathly silence. What could it mean? Why this still ness? Had he fallen in a fit from mental excitement? Or was he quiet ly strapping his razor preparatory to cutting his throat? The suspense was horrible. I could not bear it! How cruel of me not to share his morning's troubles! "Hortense!" The name came with double excla mations, and the voice seemed nat ural. "What, dear Dolphy?" "Breakfast is ready!" What a relief! I repaired to the room below; sitting in front of the stove, his chair tilted back, his feet elevated to a level with his breast, a glow of culinary satisfaction over spreading his face Adolphus said: "H*""tense, the new cook presents the compliments of thc morning, an nounces his bill of fare as consisting of hot biscuit, hot coffee, new creamy butter, an'd thc complete solution of the- servant question.

AN UNFINISHED STORY. A Point Where In rollins It the Kev. I Harrow* Alway* Stop?. The Rev. Dr. John Henry Barrovi president of Oberlin College, who fe merly preached to a Chicago Congr gation, tells a little story concernb an experience of his own that may worth passing along. It was at t time that Dr Barrows was making a rangements for the holding of the gre congress of religions here. He had t immense correspondence to take ca of, and found it necessary to empl a stenographer. The young lady w pretty. It is not to be inferred th there are any but pretty lady sten graphers, but the one employed Dr. Barrows was especially comely. The doctor fitted up a workroo on the third floor of his house, whe he and thc stenographer toiled ha day after clay, undisturbed by calle and well away from the noises of tl streets. The work of preparing for the co: gress was still going forward on tl 14th of February, when the doctor's 1 tie son became excited over the sen lng and receiving of-valentines. Theb< had been running about the neighb hood handing love tokens to the chil ren he knew and many had come him. when he remembered th?.t hi a father up on the third floor, in add tion to the One in Heaven. Going i his mother, he proposed that thc send up a valentine. "Well," said Mrs. Barrows, "it is vei nice of you to remember father. Ho would it do for me to write a valentir for him and let you take it up?" The boy was delighed at the idea an bis mother wrote upon the sheet c paper: "Please kiss the bearer." This she placed in an envelop which was properly sealed and addres: ed to the doctor. The boy started u] stairs with his valentine, but he he been running around a good deal du ing the morning and his legs we weary. When he had reached the se oncl floor he met the pretty steno rapher, who had started out after po tage stamps or something, and ask? i." she wouldn't be kind enough hand the note to his father. She took the envelope, gave tl child a pat on the check and ran ba< upstairs, where-perhaps prompted 1 some feminine curiosity-she walt while Dr. Barrows opened his valentii and read, in his wife's handwriting: "Please kiss the.bearer."

As the result of studies on New Jer ey mosquitoes last summer. Professor john B. Smith of Tlutgers college says that, not orly will the insce's travel long distancer, from their breeding place, but on favorable evenings large swarms rise and are- carried during the night by winds. The direction in which they go is often seaward. Swarms have been met 15 miles from the shore, and they are common five miles from shore. Migration of mos . qultoes. with the aid of the winds, Professor Smith regards as of much importance, and as rendering the con trol of the mosquito nuisance a state rather than a local affair.

LIFE INSURANCE SOLICITING VS AN UP-TO-DATE BUSINESS There ls Plenty of Room at the Bot tom-Some Interesting Facts by Jae. W. Alexander, In "Success." In the other professions, it ia said hat there is pie-ty of room at che top. n life insurance, there is plenty of oom at the bottom; that ls, for young ellows just beginning. To oue man who 8 insured for his life, there are many ?he might be. Even In Nev/ York city, vhere there are more agents in propor .ion to population than anywhere else n this country, not one-tenth of the leid is covered. It is a field that ceeps constantly renewing itself, ifoung men who ?: t?king upon them selves the responsibilities of married l?e need life insurance, and can be :ohvince? bf the fact. Men who, are ilr?ady insured almost aiw?ys take jut larger policies as their incomes ;row. Thus an agent obtains a cliente lage which is a continuing source of in lome to him. The time is past for regarding life insurance soliciting as a temporary oc cupation. None but men who are sure that the field offers them a complete career and adequate reward for their output of energy and talent through the whole course of, their working rears can succeed nowadays in busl The si I these is very pronounced. The work possesses the peculiarity of giving unusually meager returns to those who are not adapted to JA*, tv. ALEXANDER, it, and unusually ,'rM,d8KJ?gS.bi?L,to'great returns to men who have the courage, persever ance, tact, hopefulness, up-to-date methods, and ability requisite to build up a life insurance clientelage. There ls a considerable number of men in this country who earn, as life insur ance agents, more money every year than is paid to the president of the United States. The income of a few is nearly double the president's salary. Almost without exception,'these men began with no capital but brains and energy. Of course, they have excep tional qualities, the chief of which arc energy, will power and common sense. Hardly any of them can be said to have unusually brilliant minds, and very few of them are college graduates. But they know the world and know men. They have confidence in themselves, and strength of will. The best companies make a constant endeavor to discover thc men who work with this spirit; and, when they find them, they try to show them that their services are appreciated.
