Destiny.


[ was once a great reformer with a purpose stanch and true,


To show misguided people just the things they ought to do. But the way the opposition tried to cheat me was a shame. My only chance to beat 'em was to learn their little game.


Bo I had to drop my objects philanthropie My and high-toned. plans of reformation for the present were postponed. Quoth I: "Unless I hit the pace and lead "em in the dance,


My elevated purposes will never get chance.""


But when I got elected and had climbed to lofty heights, Their scheme to throw me down brought weary days and anxious nights. I had to keep on guessing as to "who" and ""when" and "how." I was once a great reformer. I'm a poll- ticlan now.


-Washington Star.


A Lowly Lite.


Bo uncomplainingly she bore the moll Of housewife care and unremitting toll, And, be it sald, throughout her length of days


Her womanly reward was stinted praise. She lived a life as lowly as the loam. Yet just her patient smile suggested home And mother-love that watched o'er trundle- bed.


TIM e'en the praiseless husband often sald She made his home-life happy.


So, when the friends had crossed upon her breast


Her tired hands, that she might better rest, And noted the angelle smlle of peace She wore at labor's end and toil's surcease. An epitaph to mark her grave they framed And, while no deed of martyrdom Was named,


Thelines told all of wife and mother strife They writ beneath ber name: "A Farm- er's Wife- She made his home-life happy."


-Roy Farrell Greene, in Good Housekeep- Ing.


Life's Dolly Tasks, Thy daily tasks are hard for thee. O toller of the earth! Thou seest not the dignity


That gives them priceless worth.


So might a child, with careless thought, Throw by the half-writ page, Nor even know how far it taught The lessons of his age.


Thou learnst o'er and o'er again In painful ways and slow, The wisdom God would share with men- The lore His angels know


'Tls He who sent necessity To guide thy wayward tread, And bids thee find in service free Thy dally heavenly bread.


O love thy life and hold It dear- O count It sweet and blest! It Is thy friend, to show thee clear Thy loving Lord's behest, -Elizabeth French, in Springfield (Mass.) Republican

NO SMART GIRL YARNS.


How n Proud Father Was Taken Aback by nn Unsympathetic Compauloo.


A man with a characterless mouth and a sappy expression hoarded a down- town Fourteenth street car with a man with an iron jaw and a lucid eye. "Well,, sir," said the man with the uncertain face, as soon as they were sented, "that little girl of mine is the greatest-"


"Certainly, I think we ought to hang onto 'em." interrupted the firm-jawed man. "What did we cough up $20,000,- 000 for 'em for?"


'The man with the indeterminate countenance looked puzzled.


"I guess you didn't catch me right," he said, after a pause. "I was going to tell you a funny thing that little girl of mine said this-"


"Well, I don't think it'll make much difference whether congress passes an- other financial hill or not," said the strong-faced man, calmly. "Country's getting along all right as things are right now. The more they tinker with the money question the more of a mud- dle there'll he."


"Er-yes; that's so," replied the man with the receding chin. "But this lit- tle six-year-old girl o' mine is the brightest-"


"Yes, I think the prospect for a con- tinuance of good times looks pretty hright." was the reply. "We won't read of half so many cases of distress during this winter as we did last winter and a couple of winters hefore."


"Well, when she came down to the breakfast tahle this morning." pursued the father of the phenomenal young one, "she looked at the buckwheat cakes on the tahle and -- "


"Now you hit me where I live," saio the square-jawed man. "Don't think I could put in the cold senson without buckwheat cakes for breakfast. What kind do you use at home-the old-fash- ioned buckwheat or this new-fangled self-raising kind ?"


"Er -- I don't know what kind my wife prefers. Anyhow, as soon as my little girl saw the huckwheats she-" "Well, for my part I prefer the old- fashioned things. I like any old thing. Friend of mine brought me a bottle of 20-year-old Bourbon from Kentucky the other day. Finest tang to it I ever tasted."


"That so?" weakly inquired the par- ent of the extraordinary little girl. "Well, she looked at those huckwheat cakes solemnly for a minute, and-" "I think Jeffries'll knock the nose off of him-that's my honest opinion," said the man with the countenance de- noting strength. "Fact is. I believe that California boiler-maker could have put up a pretty stiff argument with John L. when lobn was in his prime." " -- and then she looked first at her mother and then at me, and then she pointed at the enkes, and-"


"Talking about pointing, my friend Jim Pothunter's got the finest pointer dog that I've seen in a month o' Sun- days. It's a foxy bird that gets away from that dog."


"Look a-here," said the man with the mnpid physiognomy, VI wasn't talking about any -**


"Well, here's where I fall off," com- plneently remarked the square-juwed man, stepping onto the running board. "S'long. Be good."
