COMFORTS OF MAKING BELIEVE.

Expression is everything. Do try to
look jolly and happy. even if you don't
feel that way. says the Chi cago Lines
Herald. It's such comfort for other
people to look at you. and We all know
that sweetness and inability ara as
'..catching" as the measles. Cheer upl
Lift up your feet when you walk, and
make up your mind that If things haven't
come just your way, you'll hustle around
and make them.
Most of us have blessings enough to
keep us thanking God halt the time, any
way, but not one person in ten thousand
realizes it. Worries seem as big as noun
tains, while the good things Of life appear
to be about the size of bean-not
Lima bean, but just miserable white
one LIS aipretty good world, after oil.
ANYHOW, it's the best one that we kno
much about. And when the SUMS shin
ing and the air is getting warm and
springlike, and the babies begin to trot
along the SYSTEMATICALLY, all that alone
is enough to keep one CHEEKY and hopeful.
