The ic is excellent. Such a building tells impressively of one great resource of the State’s wealth. Why not bring California to the front by a gold palace? Of course, it could not be built of t re met: It should be constructed of our various gold ores. ing the fashion of the Washington monument, in which the are inscribed by the different States which contributed them, es should be inscribed with the names of the mines and es where they are found and also with their assay per ton in gc ich a building should be in San Francisco, p'erhaps as a feature Golden Gate Park, and it can be utilized by housing in it the State Mining Bureau, for which the State now rents quar- ters. In the gold palace the conventions of the Miners’ Association can meet. Built of California ores and roofed with California slate, such a building would be an attractive feature in San Francisco, and none would be more visited by tourists and by our own people. We have various clubs and associations that are moving intelli- gently for the beautification of San Francisco and the display of its attractions. They should promote a gold palace as a beneficial ob- ject and of practical use. —eeee otate count A Baltimore paper refers to “‘Hamlet, the well-known play’ by W.

If you have determined to achieve a certain end and the end is worth while, cling to your alm persistently in I think there is one danger which every person with an object nceds to guard against, and that is the danger of becoming disheartened during those periods when circumstances prevent his actively following his purpose. I believe those periods come to every earnest worker. Indeed, the more dead in e:-rnest onc is, the more persistent are the obstacles that rise to make the pursuit of his aim difficult. It frequently happens to such an one that no sooner does he determine pow- erfully upon some definite course of action than he is immediately sur- rounded by opposing circumstances that cut him off, seemingly, “rom even the vision of h 3 goal. The birth of a purpose seems almost to create the obstacles. Probably fhere is no aspiring person in any walk of l.fe who does not know what this dis- tressing experience is, A young man engaged in commercial work desires to improve his intellect during spare hours. He vigorously re- solves to set aside a certain time each day for study. No sooper does e make the resolve than a hundred unforeseen difficut’es spring up In his path. The unusual occurs in everything concern- ing him. Unéxpected demands are made upon his tinie by the firm for which he works, by his family, his friends, his assoclates. All" forces seem to conspire to keep him from claiming the *spare time” that has heretofore been his. Again, a busy housewife and mother determines to do something out of the regular routine; to improve her mind, in order that she may be a more in- spiring companion for her iildren. She lays plans to this end. She cal- culates, ponders, makcs certain defl- nite decisions. She arranges her work 80 she may have a margin each day for reading or study. But woe to her clear-cut plan. The resolution she had made seems the signal for an avalanche of unexpected happenings. All conditions about her conspire to thwart her ends. Nelgh- bors, friends, relatives, the weather—all are seemingly in league against her. Relatives from a distant city arrive un- heralded, and she must entertain them and show them about. Some friend in @ country town sends samples of things she wants matched at the stores. Some- B Here we have a wishl 1 boring fence; another child—girl—tears her frock and a new one must be made.

She cannot ignore or slight these ob- vious duties. ‘What shall the young business man do whose spare time is ruthlessly taken from his control by circumstances he seems powerless to prevent? Shall the purpose be abandoned? Certainly not. My word to this man, this woman, and to any one in similar difficulty, is this: Keep to your purpose. You need not abandon it simply because immediate circumstances prevent you from carry- ing it out in the visible world. If you will you can add the power of that purpose every day by persistent efforts In the invisible. Real growth takes place in the invisible—in the realm of thought forces. You can make your purpose so strong by your own thought nourishment that it will in time control circumstances to suit its own onds.

Waterhouse — FOLLO./ING A COOK BOOK. USED to have all the confidence in the world in the recipes contained in cook books, but now I feel that they are not explicit enough in their instructions. They might be all right for a chef, but they leave a mere tyro groping blindly in the darkness, as it were. Our cook unexpectedly left the other day, and contemplation of the fact left Henrietta feeling far from well. So I sald that, under the circumstances, I would turn in and ceok a little something to 2dd a finishing touch to baker's bread and butter. Henrietta remarked that she feared I could mot do it, but I told her that the observation showed how utueJ she appreciated what the all-conquering Intellect of man could accomplish if it set itself resolutely about anything. Henrlet- | ta said I might do what I liked if I would not insist that she taste the result unless she liked, and T told her that she would} miss one of the opportunities of her life if she dldn’t taste. I now think I was right, After studying the cook book for some time I decided that I would make an apple pudding, of which both of us are fond. Accordingly I carefully followed the in- structions, and then set the resuit in the oven. When dinner time came I took my chef d'oeuvre from the over and tri- umphantly set it on the table. It looked queer; T admitted that even to myself, but I was glad to reflect that the taste of a thing is not always indicated by its looks. Its color in general was a sort of melan- choly green, like that of a face that is “sicklled o'er with the pale cast of thought,” but this pervading tint was happily relieved by streaks and daubs of @ morose chocolate color. “What did you name it?” asked. “It’s an apple pudding,” I replied. “I should never have guessed it,” was her answer. ‘“What made you put in so much green paint?” “That isn't green paint,” I urged. “I know it looks somewhat emerald, but the | apples were green apples, and then, again, perhaps the sage had something to do with it?"" “The—~which?"” ““The sage, you know. The recipe called for one tablespoonful of sage to each one of six apples. It seemed liberal to me, but—" “Let’s see that recipe.” After examining the book Henrietta in- sisted that it called for sago instead of sage. Perhaps it did, but the “e” '"i blotted and anybody would have taken it for an “a.” “What gives it its chocolate-colored ec- centricities?” Henrietta continued. “I—-I think—that {s—"" | T disliked to proceed, for a dark suspi- clon was rapidly developing in my mind. “What do you think?” Henrietta insist- | ed. “I—I think—that is, I fear—well, per- haps it is the mold.” “The mold!"” “Yes. The recipe said, ‘Sprinkle mold with bread crumbs and pour in pudding. I thought it was rather strange, but there is no better or cleaner mold in the world than in our garden, and so I got—" Henrietta interrupted me by a sound which seme people would have taken for a successful imitation of an expression of disgust. She was about to leave the table when she naticed something, and with her spoon carefully exhumed some object | from her plate of pudding. “What is this?"* she then asked. I examined it closely, “That,” I then sald, “'is my comb. It must have dropped out of my pocket, and I am glad to get it back again, for it is a very useful little implement. I do not believe that baking ‘will hurt it any, do you?” But Henrietta did not answer, and, some- way, she seemed pained about something. We gave the pudding to the hens, and taey refused to eat it, but I do not know whether it was because it did not appeal to their taste or because they wished to save their foolish lives. My sweet, young confldence in cook books has been rudely shattered. They may be all right enough for' chefs, but the most of us are not chefs. THE GOOD OLD SPRING. Oh, for the days of the good old spring. When she blesses the children of men, When her kindly smile seems a sentlent thing, And we thrill to her touch again! Oh, for the time when the birds are glad, As they flit on a tireless wing! For how can the heart be sore and sad, In the days of the good old spring? The tears of the winter have glimmered away, The smiles of the summer draw nigh, And the biue of the ocean, the biue of the bay, But mirrors the blue of the sky: And the hours bring their blisses to lay at our feet, The moments their ecstasy bring, For life is a rapture, impassioned and sweet, In the dayg of the geod old spring. “He made his fortune by selling his merchandise at cost.” mpossible “Not at all. You see, it was the pur- chaser’s cost that he meant when he advertised.” Henrijetta NOW, AREN'T THESE FACTS? Deep down in our hearts our main objection to sumptuary laws is that they interfere, not with our rights, but with our fun. There are few men or women who have not before now kicked somebody for doing the thing they did and failed to get caught at, There are very few of us who would not live better than we do if it were not so much trouble. The reflex action of the deed that was committed in a moment may last until death calls us, and I do not know how long afterward, It is much easler to return a kiss for a blow if she who gave it Is young and pretty. If there is to be a happy marriage there must be 4wo parties to it who are determined that it shall be so. .
