It if wonderful bow happy one feels when they have overcome a great temptation and it is at such a time as this that one feels light hearted and yonug• Be tem- perate, this does not allude only to the stomach bat over•dotog in any way makes for premature age. That is, by doing more work than yon are able to do, to give yourself justioe. Do your work properly for there is no pleasure in things half done, but. work well done brings great pleasure and yon feel young and ready to go on and do something else When I say these things. I do not mean that we are to do everything for ourselves or for our own loved ones, but for any one who needs oar help. Do it, whatever it le, with a willing heart and not as though you had to, for there is more in how a kindness is done than what you do, A kindness done in the right spirit gives the doer a ligbtnesa of heart that makes them happy and young. You must take good oare of your health for you need a healthy body, love the open air Fresh air is not a fad, it is a neoessity if one would keep young. Another way is to get plenty of sleep for it is said that nothing lines tbe fit•e like nights of wakefulinese. If you have a good eight's sleep you will awake refreshed and rested and will feel ready for almost anything-. I think it is beet to have a reasonable amount of work to do as it gives exercise to both body and mind and you feel like singing. Mingle with young people,take an inter- est in all they say and do, sympathize with them in their Borrow, enooutage them in the right way and it is wonder. ful how much younger yon will feel. I know by experienoe for I raised eight daughters to young womanhood and we were more like sisters than mother and daughters, for I was always among them, and even now I sometimes won- der if it is possible that I am so old for I do not feel very old. Another way to keep young is to cultivate a love for the beautiful, there are so many things in the world that are beautiful. In the summer when you go into the garden it ie a great pleasure to work among the flowers and it makes one glad to think that God is so good in giving us eo many beautiful things to look at and take pleasure in. While one is looking the heart is filed with gladness and grata trate to our Heavenly Father for all his goodness to us and it makes one joyons and yonbg It hi said that a thankful heart is a receiving heart for which there is a continual feast, and it is so, for I More proved it to be so many times In my own life. Another way to keep young' ie to be interested in othere. A selfish person cannot Leel either happy or young for their thoughts are centred on themselves and it they do not get their own way they will not be young or happy either. It you have some little troubie9 do bot tell them to others for the more you tell them the latgar they grow and it does more harm than good to both partner. Do not render yourself nnoomtortable for the like of outward Minot, try to be yourself and slake some one else happy, yon Will fell ycarself growing younger every day until the oat' comes for as to enter in whete there are no old people end we shall 'all be young acid happy in the sweet by and by.

By his fellow Hindu the Mang, one of the lowest of all Indian castes, tR not only despised, bruteven feared and bated.. A writer in the Times et Indio says; "Vo be cruel le to he Nand hearted; to fly into a passion may b. eniwessed in Maratha idiom as having ne Mang witltin one, When on the occe castors of an eclipse fears are wale. erred far the safety of the env or moos+, it is the Mang whose help le sought. Ile goes among the people claiming their propitiatory gifts, saying; 'Give your gifts that the grasp may be re- moved. For are not BFtahu .and Kate, the enemies who have laid evil hands on the heavenly bodies, themselves' Mangs?' Similarly, to their recognized relation with 'dark' worship and with subtorreneen and demoniac influenced is to be trneed tbe making of offering' to Dant; women on Driers day and the sinister fact that there are few great buildings erected in pre -British days in this part of India that bays not -whether they be temples or forts or palaees-slang victime built into their foundations. "The peculiar place that these pope• lar superstitions have given to the Mang commur:tty is seen especially in the coreiuoules tout are sometimes per- formed for the removal of disease. Frequently when some one has fallen ill n Josh' 1s consulted and expiator; the illness as due to the influence of some evil spirit. The one effective pre- scription in sucb a case is to call it Hang and give him a dinner. ,This is. not by arty means an act of friendli- ness toward a despised community, but has as its object apparently the pro• pitiatioo of the demoniac power and tbe removal of the source of the dia. ease from the sick man to its proper habitation. "With this end la view practices of sympathetic magic, which can be par- alleled in the folk lore of many pea pies, are employed. Portions of the finger nails or, It may be, fragments of hair of the invalid are secretly mixed with the food to be given to the Mang, and before the sugar water of which bim rho sickbeis maton mustpartake seeis hisgiven faceto in It. In this way the evil is supposed to be passed back to where it properly be- longs and the disease removed. STAGE REALISM. Why Jefferson Didn't Have a Dog Schneider In the Flesh.
