FATE KNOWS HER BUSINESS Moot of Uo Have Been Placed in Our Proper Sphere If Wo Look at Things Properly. Of course, we all admire the person 1 who Is considered a genius. We feel sure life must be very sweet to such celebrities, overlooking the cold facta that be or she must eat, sleep end pay his o. her bills Just like ordinary humanity. So. after all, probably those genius-people haven't (as the office boy expresses It) “anything on" the person who must work hard all the week—who Just look forward to Saturday. when a little yellow (It's usually yellow) envelope will be handed to him. He throws back his head, whistles and, whether he’s on or off the key. doesn't care. He’s happy— yes, probably happier than most

kings.

Fate knows what she Is doing, and each one of us Is In Just the place where he should be. If we can slug a little, let us use onr “talent" entertaining our good friends now and then. Let os keep the piano open, and even If onr mnslc's from the 6 and 10-cent store, what of It? Onr “narrow sphere" can be broadened If we go about It In the right way. We can make life very full and happy for ourselves and those around ns If we try to do so. There are too many “talented" failures all around us, so ilet ns wisely stay on the aide that

AFTER MANY YEARS OF WORK Commission Finally Publishes Ita Finding*, and, a* Usual, the Taxpayers Foot the Bill. A dog once bit a boy's leg. so the latter's father promptly sued the owner of the animal. After much wrangling the case was submitted to an Independent Inquiry committee, which many years after gave their decision

as follows;

“We find the dog partly responsible for the bite—not the owner, whom we have established has no cannibalistic tendencies. Considering the Independent action of the animal, which pointed to bones in tne vicinity, It la to be regretted that the canine Intelligence did not consider the portion of leg between It and the said bones. “The boy Is not guilty of negllgenca In getting In the dog's way. and we should compensate him, only he la now a man, and It was a boy who was bitten. Likewise be has forgotten which

leg suffered.

“We ere Inclined to censure the dog for careless discrimination, but It Is dead, so we unanimously conclude no one Is gnllty, except the taxpayers, who, having derived considerable entertainment from the proceedings, mnst now pay the cost thereof."— London Tit-Bits.

Group Immodesty. Why Is It that men who IndMdnally are modest to the point of timidity are the very opposite when they get together? The United States has a number of militia regiments which have attached the words “battling" and “fighting" to their names. They did this before they were mnch mere than organized and they have retained the words though they have seen uo fighting and smelled only the powder of the tar^ get ranges. There are clubs and associations which gather, seemingly, for no other purpose than to absorb flattery. The sense of *e'f-Importance la nowhere ao concentrated, so humorously tangible, as In the halls where congresses and state legislatures conduct their affairs.

True Marriage. Sympathy, reverencx-. Intellectual equality—these are the foundations ol marriage, as of the nobler and deepei forma of friendship. Look back on oui friendship, and ask: Would It havt been what it la without the vivid eympathy, which made us helpful to one another? Would It have been what It Is If each had not found something lo the other which ndsed and exalted him? If I had not found worth and truthfulness aud uiu-elfiahneta la you. if you had not found In me (however 1 myitelf fall short of It), a striving tc bold up to you the ideal of worth, ol devotion to truth, of faith In troth 1 And remember, friendship such as this merge* in marriage-a is meet and right that It la six. But the uuirrtage must give you In the wife all—ay. It may give a thousandfold more thy all —It takes away In the friend.—J. B. Green.
