Nearly all the wounds and smarts and miseries of the sensitive natures in this world are caused by the ingoing atti- tude of mind, the attitude which asks, “How do I feel?” instead of “How do'I make others .eel?” It certainly seems paradoxical that this state of mind, which is unquestion- ably selfish, should be peculiar to some of the gentlest, most lovable and un- selfish of characters.

Some other freckle-faced, homely urchin could hurl a pebble several feet farther than you every time. It was discour- aging, but there stood the unhappy fact. Now that you are grown, dear boy, all, and lots of fellows never even lift the pebble. Tell you, brother, tell you this: Though your arrows veer and fall, Better e'tn the target miss Than’to never shoot at all. VAIN ARE THE RAYS.

The sensitive one is mistaken when she tries to make herself callous, in the belief that only by this method ecan she have relief from her miseries. Re- Hef will never come to her by that course, but by heartily rousing her mind to thoughts of those about her. Horatio W. Dresser, writing of self- dominion, says: Another way to ar- rest wrong states of mind and harmful expenditures of force is suggested by the fact that all emotional states which shut one into self produce distressing results. Desirable states of mind are expansive, outgoing, uplifting, hopeful. Morbid and depressing states are al ways caused or accompanied by an in- going thought of self. ®* * * To the ingoing half belong all our petty an- noyances, our servitudes, cares, fears, anxieties, our painful consciousness of | self, our despondency, want of balance and restlessness.

There was the birthplace and cradle of harmony. Guido Aretino, who originated counterpoint: Palestrina and Scarlatti, who pushed it to a point which has scarcely been ex- ceeded since (except in the matter of sym- phony), were natives of that country. But it is in melody that Italy stands pre-emu- nent. Her's are no cramped and rheu- matic airs, hobbling along like some of those generated in our northern climes, bearing upon them evident marks of the patching and propping hand of the com- poser. They glidé along. smooth, elastic, fitelike, full of feeling and passion. There is not that depth of thought in them that there is in the music of Germany; but they are ever graceful and touching, and easy to be understood. This is the gen- eral character of the airs of Jomelll, Per- golesi, Cherubini, and especially of the modern Rossini, who, decidedly inferior in seience to many of his brethren, has per- haps enjoyed a greater amount of popu- I od work of the State Mineralogist is bringing 1075:ght | rassing o muitache i 676 hot inte- | *What Hakes you thinik #o?” s s;:eclalhlnformlli:’)n l:finllcd d:]ly“to “When -the mind is in the outgoing | 1arity. and n.l t mainly on account of 1 of o lepe c n i 7 3 S 7 usiness houscs and public mien by the his delightful melodies.
