WHAT MAKES LIFE WORTH
LIVING.

i ne 1OllOWI1k lcCeCIs CAPA OSoAA-S :
such beautiful thoughts, was writ
ten by a prominent Texas lawyer
to an old friend, and is worth
reading and treasuring up. The
Sabbath is a good day to look into
ones own life and retrospect the
past: sI |Is
Well, as you say, sixty years is
a long time, but you will never be
old. 1t has been well said that one
is never old while the heart is
young. We should never permit
ourselves to grow respondent. We
should measure our time not by
the years we have lived, but by
the good deeds we have performed;
by the kind words we have spoken;
by the griefs we have sOlaced; by
the hearts we have made happy.
This is really all there is in living
or in life. The acquisition of
wealth, the gaining of power, the
strife for fame, like all other ambi-
tions except the one to do good,
turn to ashes on the lips" and
at the end one can only exclaim
with the psalmist: VANITY of van
tiles, all is vanity" AS | grow
older find myself thinking less of
such delusions and l might add
that / think less and less each
year of the men who devote them
selves to such follies. Many of my
best friends l have found among
those to whom the world seems not
to have been particularly kind
who have not accumulated fortunes
nor become intoxicated with sue
cess; but who, with gifted intel
lectual requirements and hearts as
sweet as the perfume of flowers,
have blessed those who were their
immediate associates while
Along the cool, sequestered vale of
life
They held the noiseless tenor of
their way.
Troubles come to all of us. The
past is strewn with broken expec-
tations and inconsOlable griefs.
Death has left its shadow across
almost every hearthstone, and its
constant ravages, ever approach
ing nearer to US, fill the bravest
spirits with terror. But to me the
rainbow of hope has been ever
present. | have never believed
that existence was purpOseless.
The same all pervading power
whose handiwork jeweled the heav-
ems, who leveled the plains, who
lifted up the mountains and taught
the rivers to run down to the sea,
designed our being and contem-
plated our destiny. What it shall
be l do not know. How it shall
come | cannot tell. Whether it
shall come, as the old prophets
thought, amid the wreck of mat
er and the crush of worlds" or as
the gentle beauty Of May morn
ing | cannot see. But it will come.
1t will be just as easy for this
world to end as it was for it to be-
gin, and there is much greater rea-
son for the ending than there was
for the beginning. The inequali-
ties of this world must be some
where adjusted. Here wrong is
triumphant; insolent
power occasionally victorious, and
virtue sometimes mis-
judged and misunderstood. AS
surely as we live and die; as sure
ly as the sun shines, the time will
come when the one will be punish
ed and the other rewarded, and
when equal and exact Justice
the most glorious phrase known to
any language-shall be meted out
to all men.

About the Rnhy.

New York Commercial Advertiser,
How about germs?" was the pertinent
inquiry of an old-fashioned member of the
family one day when, as the modern mother
was engaged in washing and scalding a
nursing bottle, the baby-her second-was
quietly licking the heel of her boot. The
modern mother sighed as she transferred
her energies to the baby's face and re-
marked: Il have given up the germ
theory All she meant was that she had
learned by the time her second child had
reached the age of one year, having caused
about half as much dread of imaginary
evils and having required about half as
much superfuous attention as the first,
that whatever may have happened to
mothers, babies have not become modern
baby is an old-fashioned being. He is
a helpless little creature, appealing to ma
ternal protection and tenderness. He has
no intention of making such a demand on
the stores of hygiene and psychology All
deal of patience and once iii while to be
let alone. He has got to have stomach
trouble, and he will put everything into his
mouth from a safety pin to a bed post. But
when one sees two-year-ods on the curb
stones of back streets munching decayed
cheeks one suspects that whether baby
has Jersey or Holstein milk is perhaps not
absolutely vital. Possibly it would be as
well if his mother were to spend less time
weighing his food and more time trundling
him in the sunshine. 1t is perhaps essen
tial to his welfare that she should replace
the expression of anxious intelligence with
which she now bends over him by the COM
Portable wholesome look that was worn by
the old-fashioned mother.

An Experience in a Balloon.

l made an ascent in the gigantic balloon
which, toward the end of the sixties, had
been brought over by q number of we'll

Mr.. Glaisher, the celebrated meteorologist,
who in one of his ascents had attained the
greatest height (seven miles,, took the di-
rection of the enormous airship on that oc-
casion. Shortly before a balloon of mod
crate extent had been brought to England
by Mr. Giffard. l was accidentally pre-
vented from accepting the invitation TO take
part in the ascent On the next day the
balloon exploded through fire.
When we assembled aftcrward in the great
captive balloon the volume of which was
no less than $4,000 cubic feet. and its height
121 feet, during such stormy weather that
Mr.. Glaisher thought at firststhe enterprise
should be given up on that day, we had
rather a strange experience. At a great
altitude we were bumped about so badly,
and at such suddenly changing and pre-
cipitous angles, that one of the passengers
near me was seized with an insane kind of
Siddiness- All at once he felt irresistible
