The sweetest pleasures of life are not those
vh CHI we deliberately plan for ourselves, however
hard to obtain and costly they may be. They are
thase which spring up by the wayside. the effiores-
eace Of seed sown and forgotten
Who does not remember going out from his
home with grief or encouragement in his heart,
10 walk over rough and stony places, where no
bird sang and no human voice whispered words OF
hope and sympathy?
Then. as he went on with downcast eyes aho
clguded features his eye fell upon the sun-kissed
gogden-rod swaying its plumes in arid places, or
the bue-eyed geniian peeping from rocky creVices,
end with the sight came the thought of God, who
makes the fairest Alpine blossom bloom among the
SHOWS. and The Iovliest flowers from the rugged
eaeti OF the desert
And then he has thought of his own dreary
prospects frozen by the SHOWS and beaten by the
rains and wi,hered by the droughts, and over and
above it all he has caught the flashes Of divine love-
and his soul has been comforted and his heart has
been filed with the vitalizing hopes of a better
and a stronger life.

The kindly act prompted by the heart of q friend;
tie ed home coming of favor long since
done aud forgotten; the warm handelasp OF

DO YOU BREATHE PROPERTY
Very few people know how to breathe properly,
Or of the strength impaired to the lungs and the
vitality the body by frequent good internal air
baths.
When you go out for walk, lift your body from
the waist keep your back straight, head erect, and
chin down. This expands the lungs and throws
out the chest. Then close your lips and breathe
great drafts Of air through your nosiris, and you
viii realize to the fall the joys of living.
BY observing these directions you can walk many
times your usual distances without sense OF
fatigue for every step you filling your lungs
sit for hours at their desks should stop now and
then long enough to expand their lungs and get a
few whifs of fresh air. This is not always at hand,
where many persons crowded in room; but
surely full breaibs of vitiated air contain
more Of the lhe-giving quality than the short
breaihs that usually taken when seated.

of strength in your blood, full chest, and clear
BRAIN practice taking full breaths frequently. the
