Write it on your heart that ev

precisely of these blank to-days.
Let us not bo so deceived, let us

The Legislature of New York
has passed an act providing for
an asyluna for men and women
who get drunk. It provides for
their continment for from ono to
three years, with or without the
consent of the drunkard. This
is a new departure in the treat
ment of men and women who
drink to excess, and indicates
that the Empire State regards
them as insaue or feeble minded
and will undertake to cure such
cases instead of inllicting punish
ment on the guilty parties.

Rceipcs for Happiness.
in a German collection of wit
and humor, dated 10 J I, there is a
homely passage which says
Would s thou bu happy for a day,
get shaved; for a week, go to a
wedding; for a month, get a fine
saddle horse; for six months,
build a fine house for thyself; for
a whole year, marry a beautiful
woman; lor two years, inherit a
rich uncle; but if thou would'st
be happy for all thy life be tem-1
perato. All of which is a parable,
and not to bo taken literally. The
happiness often fails with every
ono of them.
