It WHh some difficulty the bride
and groom found seats, and presently
a wsitress came to take their order.
"Where's your bill of fare?" asked
the young man.

answered.
"Nor any other day, perhaps?"
"No. sir."
"Wellj what have you that you caa

"We have som nice pork and

A Deadening Habit, f
A fault-finding, criticising habit' la
fatal to all excellence. Nothing will
strangle growth quicker, than a ten

worst aide of others, arc but giving
the world a picture of themselves.
The disposition to see the worst In
stead of the best grows on one very
rapidly, until it ultimately strangles
all that Is beautiful and crushes out
all that Is good In himself. No matter
how many times your confidence has
been betrayed, do not allow yourself
to sour, do not lose your faith In peo

have seen much of their cotton de

to have such heavy losses continue
"It will be Inconvenient and ex
