Thrift Aid to Courage Thriftlessuess often fosters cow ardice. Thrift inspires courage. Shift less persons rarely have much back bone. They are so dependent upon others for assistance that often they cannot assert themselves to preserve llieir self-respect. Their wasteful habits sap their self-reliance, their self-assurance. The thrifty individual, of tlie otiier hand, lias leurued to stand on tils own feet, lie has learned how to take cure of himself, how to man age his affairs, how to provide against emergencies. Therefore, he is little inclined to submit to uncalled for in dignities. Nor is lie ufraid to take reasonable risks. His tluundai back ing gives hint courage. And without courage few successful careers have been built up. Thus we arrive at this formula : Thrift develops success.— H'orbes Magazine. Kin to a Mysterious Race Ho long ago ilmi it is impossible to say when, there dwelt in Europe or Asia a most remarkable tribe of man kind. These people are not mentioned in any ancient history and no legend gives a hint of their existence. They were the so-called fathers of the Ary ans who now people the earth, and the knowledge we have learned about them has been learned through the 'tudy of words. Word by word the language of the original Aryans has been exhumed front the deseemlent modern languages until, pieced to gether, they tell the story of a van Ished people. Historians tell us that words and customs are a great Index to the life of any race.—Capper’s Weekly.
