IsollLl'I'Y OF LIFE. _ ' Life is noblé. If to any it is not so it is because they make it otherwise. It is an inestima- ble privilege to live. It is great- | er still to live well. Each man can start a train of consequences for good that will be as the peb- ble cast into the water, which will start a ripple which will ex- tend to eternity’s shore to bless or to curse the man, to sweeten or to embitter life.—W. T. Rich- ardson. . The Parsee. The Parsee, untrammeled by his sur- roundings, is seen in Bombay in all his wealth of height and dress. The men are, without exception, tall, finely form- ed and stately and posses a robustness and beauty quite at contrast with their Hindu neighbors. Their street cos- tume is a peculiar long white cotton gown, wide trousers of the same ma- terial and color and a tall miter shaped hat. They have a general reputation for sobriety, frugality and sagacity, and they seem to thoroughly under- stand the accumulation of fortunes, in this respect resembling the Hebrews. The wealthiest residents of Bombay are Parsees. Ruskin’s Impulsive Generosity. One day, walking near Radley, Rus- kin’s attention was caught by a group of little girls playing in the road, and he went and talked to them. One of them specially attracted his attention. He asked her why she was playing in the dust. Had she no garden at home? Did she love flowers? What was her name? And she replied modestly, with wonder in her eyes. On reaching home he gave orders to his solicitor to look out for and buy a cottage with a gar- den in Radley and have a deed of gift made out in the little girl’s name, which was done, and she, full of won- der, with her astonished parents, en- tered 1into possession of it.—From “Ruskin In Oxford.” N T § Days||Mora—Then Clristmas " LATE SHOPPERS WILL’ FIND COMPLETE STOGKS HERE 40 cents SPOT PiNS GOLD FILLED ENGLISH FINISH.

Painful Suggestion. “The father of the girl you wanted to marry is a great uplifting force in thiy community.” “Great Scott! How many more fel- lows has he kicked out of the house?” —Exchange. - A Love Story. Professor Henri Bergson at a dinner in New York talked of love. “Love in the sense of passion,” he said, “does not live long. There’s a little fable about love which has a deal of truth in it. “Love, 8o the fable runs, bent over a beautiful maiden, when Cynicism sneered and said: '“‘Oh, yes, her eyes are stars and her mouth is a rose, but twenty years hence she will be fat and round back- ed, with a double chin just like her mother. You, though—ha, ha, ha!— you, though, will be blind, eh? “‘No,” Love answered calmly; ‘I sim- ply shan’t be there to see.’” Struggling to get rich quick keeps many & man poor.
