The N obby Tailor, Little Britain LINDSAY, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9th One day last summer I was sitting in the train on my way to Muskoka. Ihad tired of looking out of the window and began to notice the people about me. Afew seats ahead sat a young man and woman. Iknew they were young by the curves from ear to "shoulder, the e: ect heads and glossy hair. I thought “W’hat are they to each other? Are they brother and sister, husband and wife or lovers?” We waited. After awhile the lady leaned her head up up against the car window. Presently her companion took a lead pencil and began to stroke her hair. “N ow,” thought I, “We wshall see what relation they are. If they are brother and sister she will say ‘0 Harry don’t’, it husband and ywife she will say. ‘Don’t be silly Harrv.’ She said neither but turned slowly and said, ‘Uh I-.know who the fly was' and so did I. (Laughter) What you say and do shows what you are and people will find you out. The book of human nature is an easy one to read if your eyes are open. I sat in a street car with a friend. Two ladies sat side by .side. They were talking together. One held an infant. I said to my friend “To which of the ladies does the child belong?" “I don't know," said he, “Wait a little and I’ll tell you,” I replied. Presently the wind waited the clothing above a little white knee 0f the child. The ladies went on talking, but the one who was not hold- the infant put out her hand almost with- out lonking and smoothed down the cloth- ing. “That's the mother” said I. When the car stopped the ladies prepared to get off. I assisted them. I took the child in my arms and carried it to the pavement and handed it to the lady who had smooth~ ed its dress, saving, “This is your child madam." She looked surprised and said, "How did you know?" I stepped on the car and as we sped along I said to my friend, “I told you‘who the mother was.” That lady acted like the mother of the child because she was itsfimother. . You do things because of what you are and the world will find you out. ‘ 'The prodigal is a very numerous person. He has not found out his place in life and is always working at a disadvantage. Many people are not fitted either by a .aood Drovidence or a wisdom that can be depended on to use the talents they may have for the best results. The young men of this country are cultured enough, they have brain, tact, courage, streneth enough but fail to make a success of life because they do not develop their'faculties into character. They have material and graces enough but do not connect these with the the power that brings succss. Self-gov- ernment is lacking. They do not learn to be calm. patient, uncontrolled by passion or excitement. They fail to have themselves well in hand. A merchant advertises: “Boy wanted, must be in pose session of himself.” Wondering what was In the long run we all advertise our. selves to be just what we are. If we are honest, men will come to believe in us There will be something in the way you look in their eyes, in your step on the street, in your hand-grasp and the tone of you your voice.that will make men believe in you. If you are a hypocrite they will find it out in the same way. Perhaps not by any one event but gradually the dis- guise will fall away and men will judge you at your worth. A good man cannot long hide himself; God, angels and men will find him out. The bad man cannot long impose. You will come to know him bye and-bye. munity. It is not safe to buy humanity by the pound nor judge men by their size, looks or color. God has not given a mono- ‘ ply of human gifts to any nature or any color. It is the soul that makes the man. What is man ? Is he only an expert brute; a hog that has learned to root with the plow, la horse that pulls with the steam engine orasheep that manages to grow its wool on other people's back, “only that and nothing more ?". No. Man is much more. He is a creature partly animal, partly satanic, and partly divine. Only this assumption can account for the awful depths to which men sink, the all-devour- hm.r selfishness of which they are the prey, l and the sublime height of noble character! to which they rise. 1 -vkuv VM 0.1“; evening of the 3lst ult. was, from the pop- ular standpoint, one of. the best ever heard in this town.

We play for fun and I work for wages. When we work for fun, it is play. The difficulty is that men are not making wagons, clothing and food1 now-a-days; they are making money. If? you go into a store and ask for good butter. 1 you will find that five times out of six it1 will not be good because the women are} not Intent on making butter so much as‘ making money. So with all merchandise, 1 men are thinking of an article that will‘ sell and sacrificing the quality to money. 3 That is why we have no great painters,§ sculptors or musicians now. Men are painting for money. They are not painting for the love of art. They do not reach up: into the very soul of the universe till they catch the meaning of beauty and glory and have the hand of an angel to make per- manent what the eye has seen by inspir- ation. The great masters did not live for money; they died in poverty. They painted day and night lest the image should fade before they could put it on the canvas. The best works of artxare yet to be done. They will be done when men work for the love of it, and do the best that’s possible before God. Then they will get money but they will get what is greater; they will be lifted up to the sonship of God, demon- strating their creation by the masterly work of their hands. on the rear platform and smoked a cigar. Presently she went back there too and stood eating a. big apple. He looked at her and said: “What under the sun are you doing?" She replied “What under the m’oon are you doing?" “For (goodness sake throw that apple away and go in and sit down," said be. "For mercy sake throw that cigar away and go in and sit down,” was her reply. “I will if you will,” said he. “Done,” she answered and flung the apple away. He did the same with his cigar and both went inside. When women are as exacting with 'men‘ as men are with women the mlllenium will be helped for- ward half a century. I must find one fault with women. They do not put the moral standard up as high as men. That sounds very strong and I shall qualify it with proof. A young man comes down street in the morning. He goes into the saloon, drinks a glass of beer and comes out with a cigar between his teeth. A young lady is passing. He says: “Good morning Miss Nellie; may I walk up street with?" The reply is “Certainly Mr. Jones.” But let the young ladyr come out of a saloon with beer on her breath and a cigar in her teeth and accost the young man. She can‘t walk the street with him; he has higher ideas of propriety than that. A you "2 man and his sister got on a street- car. She went in and sat down; he stood A carpenter called at my house and asked help. I went to his home next day. I stumbled on the loose dam-step. Inside there was not a sound chair to sit upon. The table had to stand against the wall to keep from 'fallintz over. The man was there. I said to him: “Ybu are a 'car- penter?" “Yes, but I can’t get work.” “Do you know your door-step is broken ?" “Yes, but this isn't my house; the landlord don’t pay me to fix it up; when it goes to pieces I'll move out.” There was a man, a. I Woman is the most beautiful, mceful, ‘charminz and inexplicable of God's cre- ation. One proof that she is beautiful is that she follows fashion's fickle folly with- out becoming unattractive. She can dress in snowy white, funereal black, turkey red. or the brightest green and be composed and beautiful still. Dress a man up that way and how would he look. Men are not beautiful. Men are strong. Deliver us from pretty men. Man has those qualities ‘ of mind that throw up the cheek bones, square off the jaws, give the nose promin- ence, and the whole profile augularity. Men are not pretty; women are. With the high-heeled boots, explosion sleeves, fan- tastic hats they are still beautiful. Those sleevesâ€"a few of them fill a church, and the less a hat looks like a hat the better hat it is. You never can tell what she will look like. Her own husband could not recognize her by her shape it he saw her coming up street two days following. Men write. so do women; men talk, so do women; men paint, so do some women; men try to sinxz, women succeed. There is no other such music in the world as a mother singing to her dying child. ' meant the boys applied. The first question was, “Can vou read ’4’" the second, “Can you do what you say you will ?" The boy says. “Yes,” “Then read this passage. through without stopping.” After the boy got well into the passage the march ant upset a basket of young puppies in the office. They sprawled, played, tugged at [the boy’s pant leg; and the merchant had ito test 76 boys before he found one who read right along as though nothing had‘ happened. Wanted: boys who can write ! away while the circus goes by, who can go on with their work if the town is on fire, and leave it to the firemen. Wanted: men and women who can break their shoe- strings in the morning and go through the day with similar irritations and come to evening’s shadow without temper, calm, self-possessed masterful men and women. Thus character is made that stands the test in days of great stress; for the days E will come. There is not a cyclone every :day. N o ship is hurrican-swept all the , time, but it must be hurricane-proof all . the time; for the day will come when the sun is hidden and the blasts rush out and smite the sea. They goad its billows into fury. Then the ship must stand the dreadful shock and hold her way amid the trackless strife; then timber and plate and brace must be firm or the ship goes down. So it is in human life. sir ?" said she. "Well yes, I-l believe I am." “Will you pray {Axial} we shall reach the Northern Junction before the other train leaves. You see I have a sick child in the coach back there and I am going to my father’s. If we do not catch the tram at the Northern Junction I’m afraid it W die before I get home. Will you pray 2“ A new expression came into the engineer's grimy face and he said “Yes madam, I'll pray.” As the slender figure disappeared in the darkness the engineer turned to his fireman and said: “Get on full sLeam Jim: we are going to make the Northern J untion on time." The whistle sounded and with a. jerk that made the astOnished paSsengers press their faces against the Window panes, the train got under way. With his hand on the lever and his eye on the rail the engineer dragged that train uphill toward the Northern Junction, praying and put' ting on steam. Faster and faster it flew over bridges, through cuttings, so fast that when the whistle was pulled it sounded behind the train, and dogs that had been accustomed to run out and bark at it as it passed were surpised to find it had gone before the bark got there. Two minutes before schedule time the lights of the Northern Junction came in sight. The engineer adjusted the levers and, as he leaned on the window sill of the caboose and looked out on the plattorm he saw a slender figure carrying a tiny form, walk over and. get on board the train for Louisâ€"- ville. lit râ€"â€"â€"~'v-vv. A. passengeer train came wheezing to a standstill at the Southern Junction. The enainesr adjusted the levers and, leaning his brawny arms on the Window sill of. the- cabOOse, looked out into the night. A pale-faced woman stood upon the platform and looked anxiously up at him. At length she said. “Is the train on time sir ?’ “No madam, ,.We are‘50 minutes late.” “Do you think we shall make it up between here and the Northern Junction?" “No madam, 1105 very likely; its up grade; we den’t usually make up time on that run.” “Will the train for Louisvnlle wait for us at the Junction ?" “No, it never waits more than two or three minutes. It will not wait for us to-night." The pale face grew more anxious. “Are you a. christian Sir?" said She. "W9" 1:“: T_ 1 Law--. r News from the Canadian Con- tingent.
