Not that which men do worthily, but that which they do successfully is what history makes haste to record. —Beecher.

Men should take women as they are, and not expect them to be ansrels. If a man truly loves a woman he ought not to complain of her feminine shortcomings, but have patience with her whims and try to understand her. It is not so very difficult. —Familien Zeitung, Hamburg. Do not look forward to what may happen tomorrow. The same everlasting Father who cares for you today will care for you tomorrow, and every day. Either will He shield you from suffering, or He will give you unfailing strength to bear it. A good cow is one irrespective of breed, that pays her owner a net profit. The cow that produces a profit cannot always be distinguished from one that does not, by external appearance. Signs of good cows many times fail. Looks, in a cow, at least, are sometimes deceiving. The value of a cow is not told simply by the amount of milk she gives for a given period, or the richness of that milk. We must know the cost of keeping, a well as the production of the cow, to determine her value. The Hon. W. P. Reeves contributes to the current number of the Financial Review of Reviews an interesting article on Old Age Pensions in New Zealand. He points out that, so far from the pension system diminishing thrift, there has been during the last decade a very gratifying and solid increase in the growth of deposits in savings banks, membership of friendly societies, and policies of life insurance.
