Keep to the Right. “Keep to the right” is the law of the road, which, when obeyed, saves one a world of trouble. Society is a public highway on a grand scale—a great turnpike where- on a hurrying, jostling, wrestling crowd of badly-assorted bhumapity is ever thronging. Here is lifein all its better pbases—childhood with. its golden hair and wondering eyes; youth with its widening, thoughtful gutiook; manhood with its firm step and earnest purpose; old age with its bowed form aud whitened Jocks. Here too, are thickly strewn the wrecks ef life--misguided childhood, headstrong and wayward; erring youth, roitingin frivolity and dissipation, and sewlng the seeds of physical decay and moral death: vicious manhood, treading the downward road; and decrepit ola age, sinister and sere, memories and hopeless. future—all commingling in the one great,journey from the cradle to the graye.

There is a pitfall be- fore you, young man} a temptation to do evil; a snare at your feet. You are forming habits o idleness, dissi- pation and extravagance, which will stick to you like the shirt of Nessus, hampering your noble efforts, and eventually draging you down to the Keep to the That is a doubtful business ven- ture, sir, in which you are about to engage; one perhaps involving loss of self-respect and sacrifice of manly principle. You see where, by taking advantage of your neighbur’s ignor- ance, you can get the best of him ina trade; or by some smart trick of the law you can evade some responsibility you have willingly assumed, or shirk some duty that lies in your way. Keep to the right. There, only, is the path of honor. When tempted to deal in gossip or scandal; to play the tyrant in your family; to withhold the gentle word of love or praise from ber who walks by your side; to lawer the standard of your honor, or do aught that would make you less manly or noble in the! eyes of good men and angles,—-keep to the right. ° Keep to the right.

In the cathedral church of Cologne is a large purple shrine spotted with gold and set upon a pedestal of brass, im the middle of a square mausoleum, faced both within and without with jasper. The shrine is said to contain the remains of the three wise men who went to Bethlehem in order to worship the newly born Savior and whose bodies, according to tradition, were discovered somewhere in the East, brought to Constantinople and Interred in the Cathedral of St. Sophia. When Eustorgius became bishop of Milan, the people of that city ob- tained the privilege of making Milan the resting place of the sacred relics. When Milan fell into the hands of Frederick Barbarosa (A. D, 1162), the influence of the archbishop of Co- logne prevailed upon the emperor to allow the remains to be transferred to that city. They are generally call- ed the three kings of Cologne, and their names, which are Caspar, Mel- chior and Balthasar, are written in purple characters upon a little grate that is adorned with a remarkably large oriental topaz, and a profusion of pearls and precious stones. Over against the shrine are six large silver branches, perpetually illuminated with wax candles. This celebrated shrine is said to be opened every morning, at 9 o'clock, when the wise men are seen at full length, each having on his ead an elegant crown of gold, richly garnished with jewels. WAS REALLY A HUMAN BEING. A Story Showing How Much Depends on the Point of View. The story is told in China that years ago @ missionary made his ap- pearance upon a platform there and that the native orator who introduced him closed with these words: “When I have finished a gentleman from. the West is going to address you. He is not a foreign demon. His appearance and his clothing may seem strange to you, but look careful- iy at him. He has two arms and two jegs, two ears and two eyes, a nose (though a loug one!) and a mouth; and I assure you his teeth are made of bone, just like yours. He is really a human being, and I hope you will regard him as such.” Ship or rink y your furs to Ben ivy: highest cash price paid for raw furs. Levy’s Enterprise Store, adjoining Hotel Pokegama. O.
