Noble Ideal.
Just to bo good, to keep lire pure from degrading elements, to make It constantly helpful in little ways to tho&e who are touched by it, to keep one's spirit always sweet, and avoid all manner of petty anger and irritability that is an ideal as noble a3 it is difficult. S. Smiles.

Muskrat Grounds Rented. In parts of the south the muskrat Ekin trade is so important that the marshes on which they have their burrows are rented out for the shooting. The sport is usually best at night, when the animals are out In search of food. It sometimes occurs that an unusually high tide drives them from their homes, when they are slaughtered in thousands. The fur hunters only kill them in the winter and early spring, when their coats are thick and in prime condition. The flesh i3 net so good in winter as in
warmer weather, as they get thin dur
ing the cold weather.
Wanted Particulars. As an example of what men In tho railroad business have to endure, a conductor relates that while he was passing through a coach a few days ago a woman stopped him and asked how far they were from Weldon. He replied that they were about 55 mile3 from Weldon. She then asked: "This side or the other side?"

Disorder Makes Trouble. It is astonishing how all of us an. generally cumbered up with the thousand and one hindrances and duties which are not such, but which, nevertheles, wind us about with their spider thread and fetter the movement of our wings. It is the lack of order which makes us slaves; the confusion of to-day discounts the freedom of tomorrow.
