YOUR WORK,
Do it cheerfully, even if it is not con-
genial.
Do it in the spirit of an artist not an
artisan.
gig Make it a stepping stone to something
higher.
Keep yourself in condition to do it as
well as can be done.
Endeavor to do it better than it has
ever been done before.
Make perfection your aim and be sat-
isfied with nothing less.
Do not try to do it with a part of
yourself—the weaker part.
Recognize that work is the thing
that dignifies and ennobles life.
Regard yourself as a coworker with
the Creator of the universe.
Accept the dh.agreeable part of it as
cheeerfully as the agreeable.
Choose, if possible, the vocation for
which nature has fitted you.
Believe in its worth and dignity, no
matter how humble it may be.
Remember that work well done is the
highest testimonial of character you can
receive..—Success Magazine.
CHURCH NOTES
Communion service will be held in
St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church next
Sunday morning. Preparatory service
will be held on Friday evening.
The question of uniting the two Pres-
byterian churches, at Halriston, which
has been hanging fire for several weeks,
was threshed out last Thursday even-
ing, when it was unanimously agreed
that Guthrie Church was to have a
minister of its own. A pastor will be
called :shortly.
THE WEATHER.
Just take the weather as it comes, and
never make a fuss,
Don't you suppose the good Lordlsnows
just what is best for us?
Then don't find fault on summer days
because it is too hot,
Make up your mind to take what comes
—you'll find it helps a lot.
You can't improve on things, yon know,
no matter how you fret;
Fussing won't make a hot day cool or
make a dry spell wet;
In fact, the more you fuss the more
unhappy you will be,
And nobody'Il admire you—take that.
now, straight from me.
We need all sorts of weather, and we're
going to get it, too;
The program won't be changed at all,
not even to please you.
So make the best of what we have and
do not fret and fuss,
And you can make a humid day seem
quite salubrious.
Why Not Offset the Move.
Mr. Merchant! Eatons are beginning
to invade the country weekly with anoth-
er advertising campaign. The Thorn-
bury Herald last week ran a column and
a half advt., for this firm, specially de-
signed to catch the country mail order
trade. When will the town merchant
learn that the success of any business
depends upon advertising and that the
inroads being made on their district's
trade, is largely the result of extensive
advertising dy the departmental store.
The moral is "Go thou and do likewise."
Giving Money.
Old Rox, the great philanthropist,
gives wealth till people wonder; and all
he gives is never missed, and he has
such heaps of plunder. A million here,
a million there should buy him bliss
eternal, if all the facts are printed fair
in every daily journal. He sees the
rhino as it goes, it's flight he never
rueth; and might, well his left hand
knows just what his right hand doeth.
He hands a million out to -day, some
advertising hunting. Oh, comrades,
hear the brass band play, and watch
the spread of bunting! Old Bildad has
a slender roll, gained by heart -racking
labors; and yet that good oldkindlysoul
is always helping neighbors. A nickel
here, a nickel there, to men by ill -luck
smitten; upon the pages white and
fair methinks his name is written. If
there's a wail from one distressed, and
Bildad hears it rising, he hustles there
like all possessed nor wait for advertis-
ing. When Bildad dies he'll take his
seat beside that widow lady who gave
her mite without cold feet back in the
ages shady. And Roe may find, when
he shall die, fot•sal.in g earthly tram-
mels, he can't jump through a needles
eye much better than the camels.—
Walt Mason.
A Word to Farmers.
At the present time I am trying to
cheer myself with the thought that •the
wet, steamy weather that we are hav-
ing is just what we need for. corn, but
I cannot forget that the oats are still
in the field and only partly cut. Some
weeks ago a correspondent warned me
that I must not fall into the habit of
grumbling about the weather as most
farmers do. Even though he was a
town business man and did not seem to
realize what the weather means to a
farmer, I am trying to follow his ad-
vice. Grumbling would not sweep
away the storm clouds that have been
oozing over us for the past few weeks,
but it is equally true that being cheer-
ful will not get those oats harvested a
bit better. The state of weather means
so much to the farmer that I am not
disposed to blame him if he talks about
it constantly and occasionally grumbles.
Still there are other things that it
might be much more profitable for him
to grumble. about. If we all got to-
gether and grumbled about the difficul-
ty of getting country products market-
ed for the fair part of their value we
might accomplish something. But if
we did that I am afraid that the grum-
bling of my friend the town business
man about the greedy, grasping farm-
ers would be something pitiful to listen
to. He could see the "back -to -the -
1 and" movement staring him right in
the face and like E. Sanford Martin's
College Graduate, he would probably
whimper; "I fear that work before me
li es. "—Peter McArthur.
As a Woman Think.
, It is an much the auty of a parent to
make his child proud of him as for the
child to make !lig parent proud.
The difference between what we are
and what we ought to be is the vast op-
portunity in life.
141any a man thinks hie heart is brok-
en when only' his pride'is sprained.
Strange that courtesy and eanolor sel-
dom meet.
It is harder to tell the truth to your.
self than to other people.
The dispute between the C.P. R. and
its stationmasters and telegraphers has
been settled by a compromise of a 10
per cent increase in wages,
