Procession." , Insufficient occupation and the con scloUKtie of not being of much use nearly always explain the man who does nit grow op. There may hare been a period In hi life when he was an admired ornament of society, when his cleverness was applauded, when his violent assertions and rash criti cisms and absurd resentments were listened to as the outpourings of an Interesting and awakening mind and were valued perhaps for some facility In utterance; but the mind has nor ma tured, perhaps because It never was forced to grapple with anything vital! and the facility In utterance that was a cliuriu In youth ha dwindled with years to peevish fluency In objection, censure and condemnation. The man who at twenty-five Is still a dabbler, with a faculty for raising a laugh by his trenchant disparagements of th. achievements of grown men. Is likely at sixty to be complaining of the cook ing and the weather, the high price and the policy of the administration or living only for the purpose of ex pressing bis discontent with the uni verse, i A man needs time In which to grow up, but If he does not fertilize time with work he will be only the weed of a man.

Let him take his holiday at the foot of a mountain or In the fertile corn country of the middle West and for holiday reading let him purchase 'The Pilgrim's Progress," by Bun yau.' " Discouraging Art. "Why do you spend your days and nights on' these pictures?" asked the wife of the struggling artist. "You don't get enough for them to pay you for the paint you use." "I know, my dear," he answers; "but think 1 Rembrandt and others painted pictures and sold them for trifles, and they are now the master pieces of the world and bring millions of dollars! I am not painting for us. I am painting tit our descendants." "Humph !" Is the discouraging reply. "You don't make enough for us to af ford to raise any- descendants," St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Strategy. "Making friends Is all very well, bm a man should be careful about the kind of friends he makes," remarked Mr. Gadspur. "My sentiments exactly," said Mr. Dubwalte.
