TAAT's A BLESSINGS HOPE.
When people affect you SO unpleasantly
| that you seem to taste the bitter waters
| OF life, 1t is very good to be able to hope
| fer something better. Say to yourself:
''Oh, well; never mind; there is a to-
| morrow, and it may bring something
! nicer" Or even to think: Well, in time
| there will be honest politicians, brave
men, and women who who will speak the
| truth when it is necessary and hold their
| tongues when it isn't" 1t always seems
! to me as if hope were good bit like a
sponge cake. You know exactly how to
make it, and you look forward to the re-
suit with great delight; then
instead of beautiful yellow
loaf resembling the sponge it is named
| after, you get a fat, heavy, UNBEATABLE
| mess, tasting of eggs and sugar. You
give sigh, and throw it, metaphorically,
TO the dogs; in reality, the dogs respect
their stOmachs too much to eat it. To-
morrow you try again. Your method is
the same, but the result is different. 1t
is lovely, fine, flaky loaf of gold, that
melts in your mouth, and for a bit of
which the dogs will do all their tricks.
You can't explain it; you did your best
both times, but if you had declared at
the first failure that you would never try
again, you would have been a miserable,
unhappy woman.
1t is the keeping all the time in your
heart belief that, after while every
thing will be as you want it that makes
life worth living. For it is, my friend,
after all. sit down to chatter with you,
lrand am indignant,about something, and
! | say Just what l. think; and after | have
said it, l feel deal better, and begin to
| get CHEEKY, and remember the people who
Fare altogether nice, and whom hope |
| win meet. / try TO think there is some
| thing good in the other people As some
| body wisely enough said, a man can be
bad all the way through, but woman
| always retains a little of the divine spark
| / quite believe this; but / wish she
wOuld't be so mean would rather she
would be a murderer o bodies than of rep
utatiOns, because, after all, one only dies
physical death once, while a mental
! agony thousand times worse than death
is endured "a million times. With the be-
! ginning of the tea drinking season, it is a
! very good idea for all of US to make a
resolution or two. OF course, we mayn't
| keep them; but it is worth while to try
You like your tea properly made; you
| want the water in the kettle to boil and
bubble, and then you pour it over the
| fresh tea, which III two or three minutes
is ready to drink, amber of color and eX-
quisite of taste. You drop in little
sugar and perhaps little milk. AS you
drink it, you eat a bit of cake or some
bread and butter. That's tea proper, and
as YOU delight in it, you want to tell about
the pretty girl you have seen, the nice
things YOU have heard, the play that in
terested you, or song that delighted
you.
KITCHEN AND TABERNACLE.
Now, the other kind of tea is put in a
tinpot, deluged with water, stands
on the kitchen stove and boils, and it is
black as murder and bitter as gall You
take a mouthful of it and hate the world,
and all the wrong that everybody has
done comes to the surface; and, as you
take a second mouthful and get the tinny
taste, you don't believe the pretty girls
roses are her own; you remember the dis
agreeble part of the play, and you can't
think there was any melody in the song.
All of which means just this: The
kitchen is very close 10 the taber-
naclc, and unless we give people
the right things to eat and drink
we can't expect any virtues from them.
Material, isn't itl But then that is what
