PEOPLE WE DO KOT'HEED. I
When a man gets so wise that he has
nothing left to learn, the best place for
him is a bookshelf. When ho gets so
cunning that you can never catch him
napping, the best place for him is among
the stuffed owls in the National museum.
The world has no need of fossils outside
of caves and archaeological collections.
What a dried up channel is to a land?
scape, such, to the world he lives in, is a
worldly wise nature which has become
invulnerable to a sensation and incapable
of a mistake or an enthusiasm." He has
'outgrown, his chief charm who has out?
grown his freshness. He has become a
mere petrifaction, who has attained unto
a state wherein he is unassailable by the
blunders to which other men succumb.
We do not need such people any more
than a full mooned August night needs
signal lights. Better fall down once in
a while than get to be so ossified you can't
bend out of the perperdicular. Per?
fection is all right in butter and eggs,'
but a man, to be a good comrade, wants
enough of, the imperfection of human
nature left in him to render him capable
of an occasional blunder. I would rather
live with the statue of Liberty on Bed
loes Island than attempt to dwell with a
a person who has outlived the possibility
of ever being "taken in," or has soared
above the weakness of once in awhile
taking a leap without knowing exactly
where he is going to- land.
Why, bless your, heart, my dear, the
man who always looks before he jumps
.misses a tine tumble in tho clover1. Chil?
dren pla ?-ing together in the haymow
-wouldmiss the best elixir of their sport
if they measured every distance .and
computed the safety of every risk. And
lif a, a good part of it, anyway, is nothing
more than the venture of children romp?
ing in the dark.' A preternaturally wise
child and a sharp man make poor com?
rades in' either play or work. What
gives to childhood its first and greatest
charm? What more than its freshness
and its capacity to enjoy a delusion?
When the child outgrows its belief in
Santa. Clans and fairies it ceases to have.
the nature of a child, and the wiser it
gets and the further from thehumbug
geries of youth tho more of that first
divine freshness and innocence it loses,
'until it becomes, like too many of us
older ones, a withered stalk, with neither
dew nor blossom left upon it
KEEP TJS FROM TOO MUCH CONCEIT.
When we pray for pure hearts let us
add to our petition that, in the grind
and turmoil of sordid living, we may
Ereseirve a little of the "greenness" of
fa's springtime in our nature. Keep
us, good Lord, from too much conceit in
our own cunning. Help us now and
then to tako the attitude of little chil?
dren who have something to learn.
Make singing birds of us rather than sly
old foxes; shrubs of living verdure rather
than dusty specimens mucilaged inside
_of a herbarium. Half the people one
meets are only epecimens. They are
types, samples In stock, anything but
individuals. They have been brought up
to be confonnista, and they are perfectly
content with their labeling in the com?
pany of the Great Alike. Usage plucks
them early, as a botanist picks a rose to
classify it rather than to enjoy its beauty,
and conformity is the musty old herb?
arium wherein they are pasted and let?
tered for all time. Give me tho weed
blowing in the meadow, wet by showers
and shaken by storms, trodden under
foot by happy children and browsed by
contented herds, rather than the finest
specimen of flora that any scientist has
in his withered and dried collection. A
green leaf with sap in it is better for re?
freshment than a forest of dead cedars.
Bless God, then, all you who retain
enough May time in your hearts to keep
you ' green" late into the season. Blessed
be tho young man or maiden, the elder?
ly man or matron who, in this age of
precocity and progress, policy and nerve,
retains enough of the primal innocence
to'blush and be abashed on suitable oc?
casion, and are not so wiso in their own
conceit but what they may sometimes
get tho worst of a bargain. The presence
of 6uch a person in this shrewd and prac?
tical old world is as welcome ns the
sight of a buttercup in the alkali desert.
April is never behind with her willows
and catkins, May never forgets her con?

comes in a snow storm, and tho bluebird
tarries not in uncertainty, but flashes
bis azuro wing on time along .the misty
hedgerows. If human friends were half
as constant to tho tryst of love as birds
and blossoms are to their season this
world would never need be exchanged

"No, I haven't any news ot importance
for you," said M. J. Gullen the underta?
ker, to a reporter, "but I can tell you a
mighty nice little story, the truth of
which my books will verify. It is about
the noble action of a little girl who came
to me about fifteen years ago. She was
then about 12 years of age, and despite
the fact that her ontward appearance
suggested parental negligence, she ap?
peared to have a noble and honest heart.
It was about 7 o'clock of a cold January
evening when she walked into my office
almost frozen and crying bitterly. She
asked to see me, and when I made myself
known she stopped crying and told me a
pitiful story that would soften the heart
in the coldest of persons. She Raid she
lived near my stable; that her father
was a drunkard and her mother was dead.
She and a little brother 7 years of age,
of whom she thought the world, were
cared for by the neighbors when the
father was on a sprea, and despite the
father's misconduct, the little girl could
not be induced to leave him. She kept
the house and prepared the meals. She
bore her lot philosophically and tried to
be happy, but her whole peace of mind
was almost wrecked when after about two
?weeks'sickness ber little brother died..
He was her pet, and the two were much
attached to one another. She again
bursting tears, and between 'heavy sobs
she said that on account of her father's
evil ways there was no money in the
house, and she did not know how . her
little brother could be buried. She had
been told that the city - would bury the
remains, but when she "looked into the
manner in which such a burial would be
performed?that the coffin would be a
plain pine box and that instead of a
hearse a wagon would take him to a pot?
ter's field?she became almost frantic
and would not allow it. She then plead?
ed with me to bury hor brother. She
wanted him to have a white coffin, a
white hearse with white horses, and his
remains to be taken to Calvary cemetery.
Crying bitterly, she said: 'I will give
you my word of honor to pay you as
soon as I get the money." I was much
touched by the story, and went to the
home of the child and there learned the
truth of her statement. The dead boy
was laid on the bed, which wat neatly
made up by the little girl. I immediate?
ly took charge of the funeral, and com?
plied with the every wish of the child.
I never expected pay, and although I
thought of the story for some time after I
never expected to see the child again.
Not long since, while seated in my office,
a handsome and well dressed young lady
entered, and, addressing me by name,
called me aside. She;asked me if I re?
membered her, and I was compelled to
acknowledge my ignorance. Imagine
my surprise when she told me of the little
ragged child of fifteen years ago. eI am
that little girl/ she's aid, and I have come,
according to promise, on my word of hon?
or, to pay you the bill/ I*looked over
the books and found the account and she^
paid it. She has married well and her
husband is a prominent and prosperous
business man."?St. Louis Qlobe-Demo

years old, was in per/ect health until a
year ago when she began to complain ol
fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness,
indigestion, and loss of appetite. I con?
cluded thatall her complains originated
in impure blood, ami induced her to take
AyersSarsaparilla. This modicinosoon
restored her blood-making orguns to
healthy action; and in due time reestab?

Sarsaparilla a most valuable remedy foi
