The Month. The month is the front doer to your face. It is the aperture to the cold stor? age room of your anatomy. Some months are the pictures of peaches and cream and others look like a hole chapped in a brick wall to admit a new door or win? dow. The month is t}? hotbed of tooth? ache and the place to - '?our tongue. Moat pereons never carry u. r tongues in. their coat tail pockets. . A month was never made too small, bat some.are so large that their owners pat their feet in them. It is the doorway oat of which come beautiful words of hope and courage, and through which pass cold costard and kraut and cod liver oil. Some people sleep with their mouths ad? justed for kissing. The mouth is the banghole of oratory and a baby's crowning glory. It is the crimson ailse to your liver and nature's apparatus for blowing out the gas. It is patriotism's fountain head and the tool cheat for pie. Without it the politician would be a wanderer upon the face of the eaith, and the cornetist and chorus girls go down to nohonored graves. It is the grocer's friend, the orator's pride and the dentist's hope. It puts some men on the rostrum and many on the reck pile. It is temptation's Inm,a counter when attached to a maid*7 I en and the tobacconist's friend when attached to a man. Without it the torchlight procession would be a dumb and lifeless thing, and when the political herb advanced to the front of the platform the audience would Haye to stand on their beads to show their delight. Without it married life would be a perpetual summer dream and the dude would lose half hi3 attraction, and moat of all, and the greatest of all, if there ; wero no mouths there would be no good* byfc or happy greetings, no words of com* fori or of hope, no laughter full of sun ahine and no song full of praise, the hired man could not be.called to dinner and no one would ask, "Where did yon ^get. that hat V'?Arlansaw Traveler.

Take time ; it is no use to fume or fret, or do as the angry housekeeper Who has got hold of the wrong key, nud pu?hes, shakes, and rattles it about the lock until both are broken and the door remains unopened. The chief secret of comfcrt lies in not suffering trifles to Tex us, an<i io cultiva? ting our undergrowth of email pleas? ures.' Try to regard present vexations as you will a month hence. Since we cannot get what we like, let as like what we can get. It is not riches, it is not p ?verty, it is human nature that is trouble. The world is like a looking glass. Laugh at it, and it laughs back; irown .at it aud it frowns back. Angry thoughts canker the miod and dispose it to the worse temper in the world?that of fixed malice and revenge. -It is when in this temper that most men become criminals. $10,000 Given Away.
