Make the Best of It.
Joist's thews- of always fretting
Over evils that can't be oured ?
What's the use of finding fault -with
What we know must be endured?
Does it make our burdens lighter
If we grumble 'neath their load?
Does it make life's pathway smoother
If we fret about the road?
Better use our time than fill it
Full of sighs and vain regrets
Oversome imagined blunder—
As does he who always frets.
We cannot expect life's pathway
To be always strewn with flowers,
Nor the time that God has given
All be made of happy hours.
storms will follow every sunshine.
Grief be mixed with every joy;
And 'Us best that it should be so—
Gold's too soft without alloy.
"Half our trouble's our invention ; "
We're to blame for half our strife;
Then, if life is what we make it,
Why not Make the beat of life?

A Railway Trip Fifty Years
.Ago.
It is just fifty-three years, says tiee
Detroit Free Press, since the first trip
was taken on the Albany and Schen
tady railroad. The cars were coa
bodies from an Albany livery sta
mounted on trucks. The trucks w
coupled with chains, - leaving two
three feet slack, so that when the tr
started the passengers were "jerk
from under their hats," and in stopping
they were sent flying from their seas.
The locomotive fuel was pitch pine, and
a dense volume of the -blackest sm
floated towards the traia. Those on
of the coaches had to raise their umb
las, but in less than a mile the cl
.
was burned off and the frames w3 re
thrown away. The passengers spent he
rest of the time whipping each other's
clothes to put out the fire, the sparks
from' which were as big as one's thuMb
nail. ,
Everybody had heard of the trip and
came thronging to the track as thou0 a
Presidential candidate was on exhibitiion.
They drove as close as they could get to
the railroad, in order to secure a place
to look at this new curiosity The horses
everywhere took fright, and the roads in
the vicinity were strewn with the wrecks
of vehicles.
At first the old stage custom of,
"booking" passengers—entering their
names—prevailed, but it fell into disuse.
One list reads: "Boy, Lady, tranger,
Friend, Whiskers."
- A Boston paper said a railroad to ihat
city would be as useless as one to the
moon. A meinber of the MassachuSetts
Legislature opposed it on the grPund
that nobody ever heard of such a thing,
and it would be improper- to take peo-
ple's land for a project that no one knew
about. I

She Agreed With Him.
"Oh, I can't sing," pleaded a young
an, who femininely wanted to be coax-
ed before gratifying his auditors.
Yes, you can. I've heard two or
three of your friends say so," persisted
a pretty girl to whom he had been talk-
ing.
No, I can't," he repeated, getting iris
to go to the piano.
"Yes, you can. Go on now and sing,
please," she urged.
He said he couldn't two or three times
more, but he went ahead, and for half
an hour his voice was the most promi-
nent thing in the room. Then he came
back smiling to the young lady.
"Ah," she said, wearily, thanks.
You were quite right about the sing-
ing."
His face clouded, and he never spoke
again to the girl who agreed with him.

A Russian Fa
On the monument erecte
the "Russian 2Esop," is a
iin:t pictorially one of his be
of "Fortune and the Begga
A wretched beggar, carrying a ragged
old wallet, was creeping along from
house to house, and, as he grumbled at
his 1t, he kept wondering that folks
who lived in rich appartments, and were
up to their throats in money and in the,
sweets of inclulgeace, should be always
unsatisfied, however full their pockets
might be, and that they should go so far
as often to lose all they have, while un-
reasonably craving for, and laying their
hands on, new riches.
"Here, for instance," he says, "the
former master of this house succeeded in
trading prosperously, and made himself
enormously rich by commerce. But
then, instead of stopping and handing
over his business to another, and spend-
ing the rest of his years in peace, he took
to equipping ships for the sea in the
spring. He expected to get mountains
of gold, but the ships were mashed, and
his treasures were swallowed up by the
waves. Now they all lie at the bottom
of the sea, and he has found his riches
melt away like those in dreams. Another
man became one of the farmers of the
spirit tax, and so gained a million.
That was a trifle; and he wanted to
double it. So he plunged up to his ears
in speculations, and was utterly ruined.
In short, instances Of this are countless.
And quite right, too—a man should use
discretion."
At this moment Fortune suddenly ap-
peared to the beggar, and said:
"Listen! I have long wished to help
you. Here is a lot of ducats I have
found. Hold out your wallet, and I
will fill it with them, but only on this
condition: All shall be gold that falls
into the wallet; but if any of it falls out
of the wallet to the ground it shall all
become dust. Consider this well. I
have warned you beforehand. I shall
keep strictly to my compact. Your
wallet is old; don't overload it beyond
its powers."
Our beggar is almost too overjoyed to
breathe. He scarcely feels the ground
beneath his feet. He opens his wallet,
and, with generous hand, a golden
stream of ducats is poured into it. The
wallet soon becomes rather heavy.
Is that enough ?"
"Not yet."
" Isn't it cracking ?"
"Never fear."
a" Consider, you're quite a Cronus."
"Just a little more; just add a hand-
ful !"
"There, it's full. Take care —the wal-
let is going to burst."
"Just a little bit more."
But at that moment the wallet split;
the treasure fell through, and turned to
dust, and Fortune disappeared. The
beggar had nothing but his empty wal-
let, and remained as poor as before.

his Views on Women.
A highly educated Mohammedan, Mr.
Gopal Vinayak Joshee lately arrived in
San Francisco from Bembay. He was
invited to address the Teacher's Institute
there, and, says the Chronicle, thor-
oughly entertained the unusually 4rge
attendance, faintly composed of young
lady teachers, by his graphic deecrip-
dons and peculiarly original ideas.
He said that -his own idea was that ig-
norant wives were much preferable to
educated one, as they made much better
'slaves; that is, they performed their
duties with greater contentment and re-
liability,and were not continually oppos-
ing their own views to those of L their
husbands, thus causing the dieseusion so
frequently seen in more enlightened
households. He thought there would
be less of gadding about, which he
noticed upon the streets here, if there
swas less of this placing women above
their sphere. He had especially
noticed the great crowds of handsomely
dressed ladies cdnstantly promenading
on Market Street and 'other thorough
fares, who seemed to have no care and
no thought of home duties or house
hold responsibilities. This was la con-
dition of things that would not be for a
moment tolerated in Bombay.
At this point Miss Hunt, hne of the
teachers present, asked him if it were
not true that he had an educated wife
now in Philadelphia studying medicine.
To this he naively answered, "Yes,"
and joined heartily in the storms of
laughter that folloWed. He eaid he
was fully qualified to speak, and that
in his opinion the uneducatecl women
made the best wives. He explained
that there were a few very intelligent
and finely accomplished ladies in India
who had received their education from
the government schools established by
the English throughout the entire
country, but he thought it was all a
mistake. The ladies espeeially enjoyed
his good-natured onslaught on the fair
sex.

A Plucky Girl.
An attempted forced marriage came to
a sensatioiaal termination a few evenings
ago in Decatur, Illinois, before Ira B.
Curtis, a, magistrate, and in the presence
of a dozen people. Philip Davis brought
hitt eighteen -year-old daughter, Barbara
Davis, from Mount Zion on the after-
noon train, to marry James Fair, a
young man aged 21, employed by Dr.
A. S. Waltz, of Decatur. The license
was procured in due form, and the
couple stood up in the office to respond
to the usual interrogations. Fair did
SO quite readily, but when it came
Barbara's turn she calmly replied that
she did not love James, and would not
marry him. The surprise was too
numb for Curtis. who tossed the certifi-
cate over to the rejezted groom, and
said that ended the business for him.
The father of the young lady stepped
forward and had a low talk with his
daughter but she was immovable, and
giving no reasons, left the room and
started for home in a wagon with a
eighbor. It was learned that .Bar-
bara's parents had been trying to force
the marriage for some months. , She
told a, woman that her father ! had
whipped her a week ago for saying she
would not marry Fair. The groom

SLEEPING ON SUNDAY.
A minister of the Kirk, in good old
otland, once discovered his wife fallen
eep in the midst of his homily on the
bbath. So, pausing in the steady, and
ssibly somewhat monotonous flow of
s oratory, he broke forth with this
rsonal address, sharp and clear, but
ry deliberate : — "Susan !" Susan
ened her eyes and ears in a twinkling,
did all other dreamers in the house,
hether asleep or awake. "Susan,
