j It }s a notable human trait that two
Snout Who barely recognize each other
-tat boroo will exchange the moat cordial
-pleasantries If they chance to meet
.abroni. lu cognizance of thia law of
ztatnrej I was moro than ordinarily de
JIghted to eeo Miss Alice Ruybottorxs of
.California enter a railway train. It
wasn't that Miss Iluybottom and I bad
only- bowing acquaintance. In truth,
-we had had a great deal more than
that' 'Operas, balls, teas, picnics, ex
cursions by laud and water, wulks,
talks and drives-we had enjoyed them
jail together, expecting so to continue
.to the end of our lives. But one day,
.as we stood looktec over the pictures
ihanging for a prize in the Mark Henry
art rooms, among which was cu.** of
Alice's, ehe suddenly tore my rlrg fiom
iier finger, throw. It at me, br.?r,c Into
tears and fled, crying oui that ehe
.hoped sh? would never see me again.
I am naturally ti proud mau and, not
being able to perceive, any reason for
ber actions, took her nt ber word and
sailed that nlgfit for Europe. The year
of my absence had dragged woof ully,
.and I come home, all the while d?bat- i
lng whether I should seek her again or
.whether I should let pride dominate
love. Now, fate seemed to have given
poor love a chance, so with some little
-trepidation-1 went forward and stood
at her seat. '
"Good afternoon, Miss Iluybottom,"
I said politely.
* She looked up, her, face tremulous
-with blushes. "Whyi Joel" she .e?
.clalmed. "How glad I am to see you!
Do sit down."
I sat down, my heart throbbing with
.happiness.- I was about to blurt it nil
out at once-my longing for ber and
my delight ot being with her again- .
:when my eyo chanced to fall on her
?ult case.' In great glaring letters I
?read, "Mrs. Dr. Arbolaste."
' I received two separate Individual
?hocks-tho first that she was denied to :
me forever, the secondthat her charac
ter had lost something of Ixe sweet s?n
.pllclty to allow of her proclaiming her- j
?elf as "Mrs. Doctor/'
?Isn't It dell0bt?ul that we both bap^
pened to get this tr^In?" slio/sald, her
?weet fae? still pink. "I remembered
that-your mother lives around here,
?omewhere. X suppose you are visiting
Iber." . -, .
I bowed assent I couldn't trust my ;
tvolce just yet.
. "I-hnV visiting, too, but . I am going
Thome soon. I'm glad. Tm-on my way 1
?to see. No, 43. I don't think ? could 1
?tond many more relatives.''
j I Siunt have proved a sorry conversar. j
ttlonallst, but Alice didn't seem to no- J
ftice. Sh? chatted In her charming way.
Bier voice thrilling me as of old, her per- 1
Isonallty anding delightful zigzags ot I
feeling ail ov?r hie, but through lt all I ./
?was tasting the bitter fact that she be- j1
longed to another. 1
"Ailee," I said at last, "now that lt ls -
4o? late to repair mistakes, it probably &
rwoh't be any good for you to tell mo 1
jwhy you threvv sse) off so suddenly that 1

a cr ucl ul moment, a uti I was not
pleased.
"Poor tired things!" murmured Alice.
"They will bo cold without their
wraps!"
"They ought to be coldr 1 growled.
"Why didn't they Btart lu time?"
"Why, the clock was slow. How
could they help lt if they didn't know
tho clock waa slow?" Alice's tone waa
reproving. '
"Why, If it had not been the clock it
would have been something else," I
asseverated;
Neither of us spoke for awhile. Alice
was watching her neighbors, and I was
walting for her undivided attention.
Finally when they began to observo the
landscape Alice took off ber glasses.
"Aunt Ita ebel will probably come In
tho car at tho next station," she said,
"and yon may remember oho ls rather
demonstrative. When she kisses me she
always presses my glasses into my eyes
or nose, so I have learned that it is tho
best thing to ??e prepared."
By her innocent manner ono would
hi> v j thought she had forgotten tho
times she had taken off her glosses
when we had been driving or boating.
I really felt discouraged.
"Well, If your, Aunt Rachel is coming
? had better vamoose. She won't want
to seo me." ( i
"Oh, she doesn't bear you any ill will.
She bas forgotten alt about that unfox
t?nate speech. Besides, sho Isn't going
on. She wrote that she would bo here to
chat with me while the train waited."
Aunt Rachel lu an astonishing com
bination of retie and purples carno
'aboard. She greeted Alice according to
prediction and me with flattering cor
diality.
"But, my Uear," she exclaimed, "why
weren't you on the train yesterday? I
thought it was yesterday when you
W?ireto come."
''lt was yesterday," admitted Alice,
with tho ghost of a glauca in my direc
tion, "but I missed the train owing to
my watch being ten minutes slow. I
don't give that as a very good excuse,
though. If it hadn't been my watch it
would have been something else very
likely."
I groaned in the bitterness of my spir
it Why hadn't I kept quiet my inter
fering tongue? Fate was hut making
game of me, after all. Sh >rtly after
Aunt Rachel's departure the train shot
Into a tunnel. Just as I was considering
tho advisability of going into the smok
er and shooting myself a soft little
hand stole Into mine and the sweetest
voice in the universe murmured:
'v'T have an idea tbl3 is a very short
tunnel. Joe, and-and-my glasses are
sUll off."
Her Dowry.
When Mrs. Simpson ?aid down the
paper she bad been reading she looked
thoughtfully at ber husband for some
moments . before she spoke..From
across the cold little ball came the
sound of Arabella s voice and that of
the y?un? mah she was soon to marry.
V*rWe haven't got a sign of a. dowry
for Arabella, pa," said Mrs. Simpson at
last.
''What's 'jot?" asked Mr. Simpson,
suddenly roused from his perusal of th3
Meekly, paper.
"A dowry Is things parent? give a
laughter when sbe's married, like heir
looms and money and. fino linen," said
Mrs. Simpson impatiently. "You knoW;
that, but you've forgotten. Arabella'
tmsu't ono thing but tho clothes She's
made herself. Will wouldn't expect us
io} give ber money, and as they're going
to i ive with his : folks she doesn't need
?be linen, but I wish to mercy we'd got
iomo heirlooms for her."

MENTAL ATTITUDE.
1? H DB SI uc l? to Do With Winnini
Succ?da In Life.
The montai aliitudo which wo ai?
ways hold toward our work or our alco
has ovorytiilag to do with what wo
may accomplish. If you go to your
work with the attitude of a slavo who
goes lashed to his task aud see in It
only drudgery; If you work without
hope, seeing no future in what you are
doing beyond getting a baro living; li
you seo no light ahead, nothing but
poverty, deprivation and hard work
oil your life; if you think that you
were destined to such a hard Ufo, you
cannot expect anything else than that
which you look for.
Ir*, ou tho other hand, no matter how
poor you may bo today, , you can see a
better future; if you bellevo that some
day you are going to rise out of hum
drum work, that you are going to get
up out of the basement of Ufo into the
drawing room, where beauty, comfort
and joy await you; if your ambition is
clean cut and you keep your eyo stead
ily upon the goal which you hope to
reach and feel confident that you have
the ability to attain it, you will aec-om
plish something worth while. Tho di
rection of your effort wlU follow your
eye. If that looks up as well os on,
you will climb.
That ono quality of holding persist
ently tho faith in themselves and nev
er allowing anything to weaken tho be
lief that somehow they would accom
plish what they undertook has been the
underlying principle of all' great
achievers. The great majority of men
and women who have given civilization
a great uplift started poor and for
many dork years saw no hopo of ac
complishing their ambition, but they
kept on working and believing that
somehow a woy would be opened.
Think of what this attitude of hopeful
ness and faith has done for tho world's
great Inventors - how moat of them
plodded on through many, years of dry,
dreary drudgery before the light came,
and the light would never have come
but for their faith, hope and persistent
endeavor.
What If they had listened to their
advisers! Even those who loved them
tried to beg them to give up the fool
ishness of coining their lives into that
which would never be practical or use
ful. We are enjoying today thousands
,of blessings, comforts and conveniences
which have been bequeathed us by
those resolute souls who were obliged
often to turn a deaf ear to tho plead
ings of those they loved best as they
straggled on amid want and woo for
many years.-Success". .' ?j

Precautionary Treatment.
The Dutch peasant live:? with
oanalo all about him, and reaches his
cottage by way of a drawbridge Per
haps it is in the blood of tho Dutoh
ohiid, says a writer in an exohango,
not to fall into a oanal. At all ovonts
the Dutch mother never appears to
anticipate such a possibility:- -
Ono oan imagine the average Eng
lish or American mother trying to
bring up a family in a house surround
ed by canals. She nevei would have
a minute's peaoe until the children
wera in bed. But then, the more
sight of a oanal to the English child
suggests tho delights of a suddon and
unexpected bath.
An Englishman inquired of a Dutoh
woman, "Does a Dutch child over, by
any chauoe, fall into a oanal?"
"Yes," sho replied, "cases have
been known."
"Don't you do anything for it?"
continued the questioner. ;
"Oh, yes," she answered. "We
haul them out again."
"But what I mean is," explained
tho Englishman, "don't you do any
thing to prevent their falling in? To
save them from falling io again."
"Yes," she answered, "wo spank
them."
Where Are We Goirg?
The earth goes around the sun once
a year. TLC p ?th which it follows is
nota circle, bal an ellipse, longer ono
way than another, such as a boy makes
of bis hoop when he hoMa it upright,
and, resting his woight upon it, bends
it somewhat out of shape. The sun,
being not ac the contor of thc ellipse,
but in one of its two foci, tho earth
is not always just 93,000,000 miles
from the sun, but homotimoB more,
sometimes less. At this time of year,
despite the cold weather, the earth is
3,250,000 mileb nearer tho sun than it
is July 1, dospito the hot weather.
At the oloso of this year we may say
that the earth is lust where it was at
the oloso of lost year; it has again
come around to the same spot. This
does not seem like getting ahoad any.
jfeut waitl Tho sun itself is rushing
through spaoe at the rate of twelve
miles a second, and tho earth always
goes with it. Hence, though in rela
t on to the sun, tho earth stands to
day where it did a year ago, in rela
tion to the stars all space it is as many
miles removed as there are seconds in
the year multiplied by twelve Where
is it going? God only knows. Where
ar? we, and where are we going? We
ought to know.-Boy's World._
