Obstacles.
The mistake oomtiaonly made is to
view an obstacle as "an immovable ob-
struction," whereas it is only a diffi-
culty of some kind, which can be over-
come with a little perseverance and
intelligence. Regarded in this light,
obstacles are to be welcomed, for they
develop our strength of character. If
everything is smooth and plain -sailing,
calling for no special effort on our
part, we cannot expect to make the
mast of ourselves and develop our ea-
pacities to the full. It is opposition
that brings out our reserve forces, car-
rying us on to greater achievement.
Those who rise superior to their dif-
ficulties are `bound to make progress,
if they consistently triumph over every
obstacle as 11 is met. It is a common
but very unfortunate •thing for young
people to get discouraged when they
come up against an impediment of any
kind. They should really regard all
such trials as tests of cha,raeter. Force-
ful personalities are formed in just
that way—by measuring wits with
contrary pircumstances. Let all those
• who aspire to win to high .place take
heart at what Mr. Bok tells them, out
of his practical experience: "I looked
at the top, and instead of finding it
overcrowded, I was surprid'ed at the
few who had reached theme'; the top
fairly begged for more to climb its
heights." Hamilton Spectator.
Forethought in Plants.
The apparent forethought in Pre.

the trees aione, but in a greater or leas
degree it is exercised by every plant
that grows—more manifest is it in
those that live more than a single year.
