Maud followed, entroating him to take her room, but he would not. The winter passed. Uncle Sim never saw his brother‘s wife or daughter except at meal times. Maud was constantly with him, doing everything possible to make him happy. ‘Who has bought the Appleton place Jobn ? teked Mrs. Grey one evening. ‘Ib is being fitted up elegantly; Lilly and I rode by this morning.‘ Outside the door she halted and said to berself : ‘How can I take that dear old man, my mother‘s brother, whom she idolized, up to that cheerless, illâ€" furnished room ? Is there no other place in this large elegant house ?! I cannot do it‘ she said. ‘I will take hiza to my own room ; although it is an attic, ib is comfortable, and perhaps Aunt Lillian won‘o find it outâ€"she cares so little about me.‘ So, returning to the parlor, she said: ‘Dear Uncle Sim will you please come with me to your room [‘ ‘ _ The old gentlemanâ€"quietly asked : ‘Your Aunt Lillian and her daughâ€" terâ€"are they not at home ? Her face crimsoned. ‘Yes, Uncle, but they are engaged.‘ ‘I did not hear his name. â€"He must be immensely rich,.

He is in the parlor. I am so glad Uncle John bhas given him a bhome here he looks so ill.‘j ‘But won‘t you come and welcome bim, auntie? He scoms very forlorn.‘ Mr. Grey‘s face was ashen pale. J ust then the door bell rang. The porter brought in an envelope inclosing a beautifully ergraved card : ‘You and your familysaie requested to ba pres ‘nt at the reception at the Appleton place, March 15, 9 p m.‘ Well, I have had the north attic put in readiness for the old man. I know there is no heat or gas there, but it is good enough for a penniless relative, and better far than he is used to, no doubt.‘ ‘Stop, your foolish talk, Maud, and go take him to his room, the north atâ€" tic. Ihave had it made ready for him.‘ A crimson flush c‘erspead the girl‘s handsome features, and she said qaickâ€" ly : ‘Won‘t you come Lilly.‘ ‘Bat Lilly, although Mand is small, her form is perfect, and ber face is very fir from being plain. But she is no comparison to my badsome girl.‘ Just then a beautiful girl of 19 openâ€" ed the door of the buodoir. _ ‘Just one week from toâ€"n‘ght, mam ma,‘ said Lilly, clapping Ler hands. From this moment she and her mother were absorbed in .preparing for this grand reception, caring nothing for the two poor relstions of whom nothing had been heard. On the f@night appointed Mr. Grey and they ladies, elegantly attired, were driving to Appieton Hall. _ ‘That little brown chit, with her pink cheeks and chubby form ?

Be Sweet if You Would Live Long and be Happy. ‘A woman who is truly amiable, meek and sweetb tempered rarely has any cause for resentment,‘ answered the doctor. ‘If she is astrong woman with her amiability, both men and women have so much reepech for her that they would do her no wrong. The woman who governs her temper is the woman who wins out in this life. As a rule she makes the best match.. She is certainly the most successful woman in business and society, and where is the person who will deny that she is the best wife, mother and friend ? Experience has taught me that the average woman _ with & naturally irritable temper cultivates it,encourages ib, fosters it. This is as true of those in high life es it is of the women in low life. Indeed every rich and idle woman generally luxuriate in their tempers. Perhaps they wouldn‘b if they knew that anger curdles the blood, hinders circulation and consequently makes the complexion bad and dulls the eye. It also weakens the woman‘s wits, making her less attractive physiâ€" cally and mentally. Bad tempered women can be divided into three classes, and all do & lot toâ€" ward making life unpleasant for the rest of bumanity. There is the woman whoss temper is constantly in a state of irritation. A little thing or nothing at all will throw her into & state of anger, and on the whole she is about the most urcomfortabls person in the world to have around. Then there is the woman with the dynamite temper. You touch her in the tender spot, and she goes off like a bomb, but after that one flash she is as amiable as ever. Finally comes the woman with the emouldering temper, the sulky woman who has driven more men toâ€"well, to other women than to any other, Acâ€" cording to & physician who knows no end of things about women physically ard mentally, all these types had better be getting rid of their bad tempers instead of coddling them. Ho says that indulging oneseif in a fit <f ugly temper not only makes a woman old and ugly before her time, but actually shortens her life. Perhaps his opinion on this subject may never be given to womankind had it not had occasion to reprove & girl for bragging about her bad temper. She was talking to another girl, who is babitually amiable but chanced to nettle her friend. ‘Many & man has been scared off from atking a woman to become his wife by the assertion from her lips that she has a bad tempor and is proud of it. Men are selfish creatures, and, above all things, like physical and mental comfort. Perhaps the average man does not hope to attain happiness in this world, though in truth he never cares to seek ib,. but he does believe that there is such a thing as harmony, and he knows that a bad tempered woman and harmony do not go hand in hand. Amiability is power if women only know it, By being always cheerâ€" ‘Bad temper does not destroy the mind but ib renders one unable to work mentvally. Ib controls the whole system and throws it out of sorts. It renders one unfit to receive the truth, Then indigestion is sure to follow. If you go to a woman who is under the inâ€" fluence of anger, who is burning from head to foot as you were when I came in,‘ burning to the bad tempered girl, ‘whatever you can say that runs with bher desire she will listen to and nothing more. If you undertake to expostulate with her, to convince her that she weakens her cause by losing her temper, she will not hear. She regards you as being opposed to her, and opâ€" position, real or fancied, ouly adds fuel to the flime. The only way to help a woman to learn to govern her temper is not to talk to her about the evil effects of anger when she is in a rage. That‘s where the average husband makes a mistake. If when his wife allowed i!l temper to dominate her he would only preserve & gentle silence, she would soon get over it, and a sense of mortification, a realization that she had made a show of herself, would come over hber, and then, if ho were only clever enough to tell her that be didn‘s want her to spoil her pretty face by getting angry again, she would think twice before giving way again. This remark was too much for the bad tempered girl. She forgot her grievance and said, ‘Why, what do you mean ? I thought menâ€"hat is, men with any go abcubt themâ€"admired girls who, when they feel they have been wrooged resent it. I didn‘t know that the modern man cared for these meek, amiable, sweet tempered women who never resent anything.‘ This was like touching a match to kerosene. The bad tempored girl got red in the face, gasped, spluttered and made a spe.tacle of herself, and it was jast here that the doctor came to the scene. â€" ‘Is that really brue ?" asked the am iable girl, interested at once, and the other began to ccol down. ‘I want you to understand that you can‘t talk to me that way,‘ exclaimed she cf the bad temper. ‘I‘ve a bad temper, and I‘m proud of it, and I won‘t stand any nonsense. I tell you I have a bad temper.‘ ‘Come, come girls,‘ he said in the most soothing‘tones, ‘don‘t let‘s have any qaarreling. Control your tempers, for every time you allow them to conâ€" trol you, you spoil your good looks and lessenâ€"yes, _ actually â€" lessen your chances of getting a desirable husband, and, then, too, you injure yourselves physically.‘ ‘Ohb my, yes,‘ exclaimed the doctor. ‘Bad temper is really responsible for more old maids than a lack of desire on the part of a man to marry.‘ ‘This is a selfâ€"evident fact,‘ answored the amiable girl, cheerfully. ‘I‘ve often wondered why bad tempered people take the trouble to announce the fact. They nearly always do, you know.‘ FATAL BAD TEMPER, ful and amiable she can get a hold on men that the biad temper.d woman, no matter how bautiful, rich and alluring she is, never dreamed of in her philosâ€" ophy. Amiability is not only power. It is health. It is montal progression. It is long life to cneself and to others.‘ â€"Obhicago Inter Osean. The Experience of Mr. Ralph Giberâ€" son, Who Suffered Greatly From General Debility. From the Advertiser, Hartland, N.B. I regard a sanse of humor as one of the most precious gifts that can be vouchsafed to a human being. He is no necessarily a better man for having it, but he is a happier one. It renders him indiffsrent to good or bad fortune. [b enables him to erj « his own disâ€" comfiture. Blessed w« h this sense he is never unduly elated or ciâ€"t down. No one can ruffls his ten per. No abuse disturbs his equanimity, Bores do not bore him. Mumbugs do not humbug him. Salemn air do not im:â€" posse on bhim‘ Sentimental gush does not influenes him. The follies of the moment have cro bold ou him. Titles and decorations are but childish baubles in his eyes. Prejudice does not warp his judgment. He is never in conceit or out of conceit with himself. He abhors all dogmatism. The world is & stage on which the actors strut and fret for his edification and amusemeont, and he pursues the even current of his way, invulnerable, doing what is right and proper according to his lights, but ubterly indifferent whether what he does finds approval or disapproval from others. If Hamlet had any sense of humor he would not have been a nuisance to himself and to all surroundâ€" ing him.â€"London Truth, Ralph G.berson, postmaster at Monâ€" quart, Carleton, Co, N.

Through reading the Advertiser he learned cf the parâ€" ticular benefit that several of his friends in this vicinity kad received by the use of Drc Williams‘ Pink Pills, and by the hops bheld out by their testimonials he secured a supply and took them according to directions. The result was almost magical ; im mediately his symptoms began to become less disagreable, and ho steadily gained until now he is perfectly free from his old troables. Ho gladly and freely gives this testimonial, that all who may read it may know the remedy if ever they are troubled with general debility. Dr. Dio Lewis in the Journal of Hygiene says : "Large caters are genâ€" erally deficient in activity and endurâ€" ance. I used to know one who was a curiosity. He worked in a small wood burning shop and ate five times a day. When he consulted me about his ‘poor stomach‘ I told him flab‘ly he was a pig. He replied : ‘You are mistaken. I‘m faint half the time and have to eat extra meals to keep up my strengtb.‘ I went at him with fact and physiology. At length he was convinced and promâ€" ised ms that be wou‘d follow my presâ€" cription which was this : Take bubt two meals a day. In 15 days his faintness had disappeared and he rapidly recovâ€" ered. To day he is a healthy, active man and a warm advocate of two meals a day, and moderate ones.
