THE MOOD OF MIGHT. There is a Peculiar Potency in Be lief in One's Own Power. Rocky Mountain News. Achievement is less a matter of na tural ability and external circum stance than of the habitual mental attitude. Success, happiness and ac complishment of all kinds are born of confidence, buoyance and faith. Dis content, selft distrust and hesitancy are all cankers, eating into every part of life and destroying force and perfection at every point. There is a peculiar potency in be lief in one's own power. This need have no element of egotism in it, only even childish self conceit is better than weak depreciation of self and the palsied muscle resulting. To be lieve in one's own success. to think and act always with confident as surance that it is possible to do any thing and all things that one desires to do-such an attitude buoys up the 10 CE * At The Righl I a WILL I Can of Pure' I Box of Sure H, 3 ounces of Casi 3 ounces of Swe 1 ounce of Laud 1 ounce of Pare; I ounce of Extra 1 ounce of Extra 12 Liver Pills 24 Calomel Tab] 1 pound of EpsoR 1 1-2 pound of Bor * 2 pounds of Cop * 1 ounce of White U1lGood Writing' I 1 Package of Go H ~The Right [I I H NEWBER U ~~mmnmum om K U.BEWE / HON.

The Scotch papers of the year 1817 reported at leng:h the life and death of a notable beggar. William Stc,en son. About the year 1787 Stevenson and his wife separated upon tnc strange terms that the first of tne two to propose a ruion was to pay the other $500 forfeit. The forTeit apparently was never incurred, as neither of them. as far as could )e ascertained, ever saw the other again. Then Stevenson took to the road a, a beggar, and lived for thirty years a free and jolly life; but at last, in ns 85th year, he was struck down with an incurable disease. When he cam. vithin sight of death he sent f,r a baker and ordered twelve dozen bur ial cakes. a large quanity of sugared biscuits, and an )ample supply of wines and spirits. He next sent for a joiner and instructed him to make "a good. sound, dry, roomy, comfor table coffin," laying the stress upon its comfortableness. Then he sum moned a gravedigger and instructed him to dig "a comfortable grave" in a special spot in Riccarton church yard. The old woman wno attended him was instructed to find in a cei tain rag hidden in a certain hole the money to defray all these expencs. Having thus relieved his mind of all anxiety as to his post-humous com fort, Stevenson died in peace. After his death were found in his garret two bags-one full of silver and the other of gold pieces-and a box con taining bonds for various amounts, including one for *i, 5oo-close upon $5,000 in all. This was bequethed to distant relatives, with the exception of $ioo to the old woman who had attended him, and a large sum to provide a feast for all the beggars of Scotland who cared to come to see his body "lie in state." "Repose"-That Beautiful Gift. Bellefonte Watchman. One of the prevailing weaknesses of the present day among the rising generation is this constant uneasy spirit commonly called "nervousness" which in itself is merely an abomi nable habit which many acquire only through thoughtlessness as well as heedlessness. With the drumming of the restless fingers, shoving and tapping o1 the feet, jingling of keys, throwving stones at animals or aimlessly througn the air, chewing sticks, touching and handling articles within reach, the offending fingers ply diligently through childhood until maturity is reached, and, like the "little peach of emerald hue," the habit grows and grows, until the poor creatures are branded -as nervous wrecks. 'When we look over a gathering of ladies and gentlemen, how few do we OD serve wvho are actually sitting in re pose? One may be rocking rapidly, at the same time bringing the teet down with a thud, and at each motion calling into requisition the head, which moves involuntarily. Again, we see a gentleman playing the "dev il's tattoo" on l1's chair with his knuckles-most charming music for the sensitive ear of his neighbor. Again. a little miss removes ner hat pins and adjusts them twenty times. Another with each introduction of a remark gives a labored or manufac tured cough, which startles many~ near him: another removes her b)ack co mb. and with it drums with restless fingers a popular air upon her thumb nail.
