Noah's boys hadslived to be 500 years

last at 47O, and allowing for but one
addition to his family every three years,
and supposing them all to live to the
ripe old age of 45O, he could gather
around him at least lar sons and daugh-
tiers,
With reasonable degree of prolific
bearing his grandchildren would mum.

Learn to be Contented.

1t has been well said, in an old Chi
nese proverb, that pride sleeps in q
gilded crown, contentment in cotton
night-cap." We are not among those
who believe that the possessor Of riches
must necessarily be the victim of cark-
ing care and harassing unrest unceas-
ingly. 1t is not the mere possession Of
wealth which produces misery, but the
use to which wealth is put by its pos
SCISSOR. The man of generous and
noble impulses who by a long
course of untiring industry, backed
up by fair and honest dealing,
has amassed wealth may, Of
course, purchase the purest happiness
which mankind can know by acts Of
charity and beneyolence. So long an
man makes money his slave he is safe
enough; but when he allows money to
make a slave of him then at once hap
piness departs. So that, after all, it is
not wealth but contentment that pro-
duces true happiness, and the poorest
man may be as rich, fguratively speak
ing, with clear conscience and a dry
crust as the possessor of millions.-N.
