tat -tat of the hammer to rown all conver-
sation, even had he been ble to speak dis-
tinctly with the tacks in is mouth.
When his task was ne fly finished, and
when he was' Pouring the last remaining
•tacks from the tiaper into his hand, she a k-
ed tentatively :1 •
"Have you alarge family of children'?"
" No children at all, ma'am, and I gu es

turned out, he replied cheerfully. •
"You have acme tionble in aupporti g
yourself then, I conclude'?" -
" Myself ? Gracious It wouldn't be
any trouble to 'provide for myself. Ary -
thing's good enough for ie. But you &ee
all my life long I've' had somebody on- My
hands to Jake care of. I was just a em 11
kid, though I was the o14est of five, w en,
my father died. Then mother said:
Joe, -you are a little fellow, •but ou
must do what you can to support the ot er
children." And so I wet to work,' and ou
might say I never was fe child from t at
minute. Then mother she married age n,
because she thought it would be 'better or
us children, she said. My stepfather wa a
good-hearted man, but not one that co ld
ever set the liver afire, and after a while he
met. with an accident that crippled him for
life, and I had him on my hands, too: he
other children grew up arid married off, but
none of 'em ever seemed to have a place in
their homes or any moneyfor father and
• mother. I was the oldept, you know, and
they got into the:habit like of depending on
me. I guess it was notliingmore tan
natural that they should.
"Then Aunt Jane, my stepfather's ol est
sister, came from Iowa on a visit. She vas
considerably drawed up with rheumati
and she said she [th ought the trip would do
per good. That was ten years ago, and she -
is with us yet."
"Why, you have no right to support er,
She is not related to you in the slightest de-
gree.'
" That's so, but then, she iln't relate , to
my brothers and eisters„ either, so they
couldn't be expebted to take her. She has
no money, no other relatives of her own ,and,
no place else to go. Naturally, I've got to
look after her. She'd be a heap more agree-
able, though, if she wasn't .80 cranky land

she wishee it was black, and if- it's biack
she's sorry 'tain't green, and so on. ut,
then, We all have our faults." He plac d a
tack on the edge of the carpet and ham er-
ed it in. "1 should -think any home would :be un-
pleasant that contained Such a wor4an,"
remarked the mistress of the house, when
the noise of the hammer had subsided.
He smiled, " Well, with her re arks
and with father and :mother always hec-
toring more or less, our 'place ain'b a ways
what you'd call gay. I3ut I've found that
the best way to be happy is not to thi k too
much about yesterday, but get all the good
you can out of to -day,.. And there's a good
deal that's pleasant to be found, afte all,
if we only look for it," •• -
"it is not surprising that you wer not
ableta marry," she said, ignoring his phil-
osophy. •
Oh, but I am married 1" -and his r gged
features .were illuminated by a br lliant
smile. Then he drove in another tack
" With four grown people to sup ort—
two of them invalids—you-must have hard
life, no matter how you look at it, an1 yet
you struck me, somehow, as being a} -very
happy man."
And so I am," he returned, still smil-
ing. " The richest men , in St. ,-Lo is or
McKinley himself ain't any happier t an I

sympathy, affairs of business, • matters of
pleasure and self-improvement, but it will
not be possible forte with our limitations
of time and strength, to. do more than ten
of these possible hun red things. It is im-
portant, therefore, that we learn what
things to leave undo e. There is a wisdom
of neglecting as well as a wisdom of faith-
fulness in doing.
How shall we know what things not to
do ? Is there any law of selection, any
• principle which should guide us in deciding
what we should leave undone among the
many things that invite us?
• We may set it don as a first rule that
the duties which belong to our common
calling should alwaye have the precedence.
We must not neglect these, no matter how-
ever urgent other calls may be. If a boy is
'in school, his school itasks must receive his
thought and occupy Isis time, to the exclus-
ion of every other occupation, until they
have beep mastered. If a young man is in
a businees position of any kind, the duties of
his business must be attended to with punc-
tuality, promptness, and fidelity, before he
has a minute for anything else. No matter
how many interests may appeal to his sym-
pathy or his desire, i or how eager he may be
to respond to the appeals, he has no right to
I
Eaten to one of the i until he is free from
his allotted tasks f r the day.
' If a young woman is a teacher in a school,
her engagement binds her to perforin the
duties of her positi n during certain hours
of five days every eek, for a definite num-
ber of months in t e year. There may come
to her many oppo tunities of doing other
things. Poor pe ple may need care and
help. Sick neighb re may require visiting
and watching wit through long nights.
Mission work m y appeal for helpers.
Young people's me tinge may seek her ser-
vices in a certain li e of work in which she
excels. It would e very easy for her to be
always going somdi
e ere on some good er,
rand. But this yo ng woman will make a
serious mistake if he thinks that it is her
duty to do all th se good and beautiful
things which make their appeal to her heart.
Her first thing, that to whieh God has called
her, and for which she has been sacredly set
apart, is her work s a teacher. Not' only
is she to devote th regular school hours to
specific duties, but besides, she must give
all the tn
time nee ary for conscientious
and careful preperation for her tasks, and
il
also must secure uoh measure of rest asi
will fit her for her uties. All this work is
hers by divine gifi, and if she turns aside to
any other task, theugh it be a religious ser -
v ' ice she is robbing God. Everything else
thatoffers must be neglected resolutely un-
til this work has been done well enough to
present to her Master.
This teaching is Very imPortant. It mat-
ters not what one's regular calling may be -

"Do You Sing or 'Speak 9"
Ex -Governor Thayer, of Nebraska, par-
ticipated in what W. J. Bryan thinks is the
best joke on himself in his career.
Bryan took an. active part in the cam,
paign in which Governor Thayer was elect-
ed, as a Republican, by about 30,000 plu-
rality. He made fifty speeches against
Thayer. Censequently, after the election,
Bryan was not certain just how Governor
Thayer felt toward him.
• At a St. Patrick's day celebration in
Lincoln, Governor Thayer was put down
ior an oration. Governor Thayer did not
have al printed programme, and depended
upon the secretary of a civic organization to
tell him the parts as they caine.
The programme was varied, there being
speeches, recitations and songs. When
Bryan's number was reached the secretary
leaned- over and whispered in Governor
Thayer's ear, "W. J. Bryan."
Governor Thayer arose and Bryan ed-
vanced toward him. The former seemed
most cordial, and it pleased Bryan to think
that the Governor was not harboring any
malice because of those campaign speeches
made against him. Governor Thayer shook
-Bryan's hand warmly, as he asked, softly :

The Power of Compromise.
President McKinley is probably the
greatest harmonizer that ever • happened.
He is a sort of personal oil on the troubled
waters. Quarrels do not flourish in his
preeence, but under his benign influence
angry passions subside and the era of broth-
erly love begins. There are illustrations
galore but probably none more conspicuous
than the Cabinet.
It is doubtful if there was ever a Cabinet
that . worked more harmoniously together.
The little jealousies and squabblee and dif-
ferences of opinion that are wont to arise
are conspicuously absent from the McKinley
court, There are no factions, no radicals
and conservatives, no contrary advisers and
there is no tale -bearing, or back-biting
among the men by whom the President is
surrounded.
At one time there was a little affair be-
tween Gage and Alger ; hot words passed,
and there was something that looked very
like a , querrel. The two Cabinet officers
had reached the point where they did not
care to exchange the ordinary civilitiee,
but McKinley stepped in and put an end to
it.
He Adopted themethocl of a father ad-
justing the differences of two s -mall sons.
They were called in on the carpet and given
an opportunity, in each other's presence'to
recite their respective grievances. At the
close of the interview each appeared rather
crestfallen, and they had shaken hands—if
not wept upon one another's shoulder—and
from that time on were to all outward ap-
pearances the best of friends.
The members of the Cabinet worked to-
gether, In the language of the baseball
diamond, they do good team work. There
is no 'fine or fixed line of adjustment be-
tween their respective duties but if Hay is
away Root will help out with the diplomacy
business, and, in any way possible, the dip-
lomat will reciprocate. Gage is interested
in quotient' of foreign policy, and his voice
is heard in the councils. And so it goes in
all the departments.
The keynote of McKinley's management
is "compromise." No one can quarrel with
him for any length of time, because he is al-
ways willing to compromise. When the
Senate tried to fight with him he made

Why Mr. Gage is Cautious.
An incident which has caused Secretary
Gage to be exceedingly eautious of "-deaf
men" °mimed recently.
Congressmen John H. Ketcham, of Dover •
Plaine N, Y., is more or less hard of hear-
ing. ile holds his hand up to his ear vehile
you are addressing him, and manages to
catch your meaning fairly well. Just how
much he hears is open to question, and the
secretary of the treasury, for °lie, has bis -
own suspicions that "Uncle John" is not
quite so deaf as he appears. It happened.
this way :
Mr. Ketcham had been in Congress so
long that he had used up all the patronage
to which he was entitled, and couldn't get
any more places for his constituents. But
one day this spring he called on Mr, Gages
" There is a man up in my town," he ex-
plained, " who must be fixed, and I want
you to fix him,"
"1 can't do; it," replied Gage (and tip
'went Ketebam's hand to bis ear), " because
there are no vacancies in my department."
"Yes, that's what he wants," said 'Ket-
cham, " a place in your department."
The eeoretary looked at his visitor in-
tently, ad said, in a lower tone:
"The eivil-eervice rules cover all appoint-
ments under $1,200 or $1,500 a year."
Mr. Ketchem removed his hand from his
right ear and replied :
" That will be satisfactory, He will not
expect tnore than $1,200 a year."
Mr. Gage Was growing desperate.
"1 tell yon," he fairly yelled, " I can't
do anything for your man. There is no use
bringing himrdown here ?"
"Alt right 1" said the imperturbable
congressman, rising. "I'll bring him
down," and out he walked, leaving the sec-
retary in a state of collapse.
Sure enough, a day or two later, the deaf
man walked in with a constituent.
" Here is my friend, that you promised.
to place," he said.
".Good Lord 1" said Gage (and up went
the other"), band), " didn't I tell you I
could do nothing, absolntely nothing ?"
" DiJnit I tell you not to bring your man
here, because I had no place for him 2"
• " No ; you said you world give him &.
place at about $1,200 ; so I sent for hinaland,
here he is."
• The secretary was in despair. Be looked
the congressman itt the Mee—it wasa blank,
In sheer desperation he tapped a bell for an
assistant,told the latter to take the constitn-
ent to Mr. B—, and, if possible, to find
him apiece.. The congressman shook hand,
all around, and departed with an expression,
of benevelenee on his countenance. _
The man got a fairly good place. The
is still rather deaf. The seere-
tary--well, he has his own auspicions.—Sno-
