Rabbit’s-Foot Philosophy.

Some men are balloonists by profession; others by inflation. Debt is the devil, and independence is paradise. I would rather one woman trusted me than that I should gain many friends. Life is a chance in the lottery of death; yonr chance is sure, bnt whether it is a blank or not depends largely on yourself. When the snow fell he wished to mow my lawn; when ths sunlight made my grass grow, he was a snowshoveler by profession; by genius, he was a ti amp. The first blue-bird is the one ws notice most. The dandelions are the span gold oi spring-time. A hundred petty virtues are not worth one genuine heart-touch. Open defeat is better than underhanded victory. —Arkansan Traveler.
