Christian Contentment.

Christian contentment creates cheer
lfulness of mind and brightens every
condition in life. 1t secures the divine
favor, love and blessing. 1t fosters
conscientiousness, conserves morals
and delivers from numerous ternpta-

prize worthy of every honest effort, a
golden crown which should circle every

Many people in ordinary circumstances are
milliopaires of cheerfuIness. They make their
Deighborhood brighter. happier and better
place to live In by their presence; they raise the
value of every lot for blocks around them.
The world is beginning to see that people who
can radiate sunshine and carry gladness and
good cheer wherever they go. although they
may be poor. are of infinitely greater value to
society than the millionaire of money, who
pauperizes everything he touches and every.
body who comes in contact with him by his
close, contemplate methods.
Largeness of heart and generosity of soul
make millionaires of character who are worth

world when we shall not have to depend on rich

Character will become so enriched in the upward
growth of the world that the surroundings,
however costly, will be considered but cheap
setting of precious life-stone. Cheerfulness
is a potent factor of success. Success.

characters, and they come in touch with
ours. 1t is this coming in touch, hu-
man heart to human heart, this exchange
of greetings, this mingling OF symps-
thetic feelings, this getting away from
ourself for little while and getting in
terested 10 the welfare OF others, that
makes life worth living. And clam
bake, like all good picnics, furnishes
opportunity for exercise along this line OF
Iife-giving and live receiving.
Besides what have already noted, there
is one thing yet which lent q charm
to our clam bake; and that is the scenery
one can view from Peck's point. / think
1t is very pretty. Frenchman's bay, the
west shore of Crabtree's neck with its
coves, points, little beaches and patches
of woods, the east shore of Marlboro with
it's lodges forming almost an unbroken
piece of masonry, as 1t were, and SEEM
ing to say to the restless Atlantic, "Halti
Thou cans't come no farther with thine
intruding arm, either in the gentle flow
of thy quiet tides or noise of they tenn
pests"
Lamoine with its Meadow Point, and
outlying shadows and hay-cock shape
rocks, Eden, with its ovens, and
here and there some lowlands coming
down with gentle slope to the waters
edge; then Green mountain rising in the
midst of foothills like a proud monarch
of the coast, as 1t is; and then there is our
Y ew OF the Porcupine islands. The pict-
ure is beautiful, grand, inspiring.
But it is not the same picture 1t was
thirty-five and forty years ago. Oceu-
pations of the settlers have changed, and
this has effected the scenery. On the
canvass of my memory is the old picture,
perfect in all its outlines, its interior
decorations, its colorings; and on this
glad clam bake day, l saw the new pict-
ure, or more truly, the old in its new
dress; and can truly say, the old pici-
ure is the best for that day and gener-
alton and the new Is the best for this
new-time OF the developments made in
and around frenchman's bay. We can
not remain stationary; We must move
with the machinery that makes progress,
both in thinking and acting.

For Happiness In Marriage.


So far from accepting the theory that
marriage Is justly to be regarded as a
business transaction, should claim 1t to
be one of the best means Of securing hap
piness in married life that young people
should not only love each other warmly,
but should begin poor, II possible, and
thus have the discipline OF mutual sacri-
fees, and the pleasure OF making their
way upward in prosperity by gradual
steps.
1t Is one OF the merits of human nat ure,
or at least of American nature, that a
young girl may be brought up to every
luxury, and may still, after marrying the
man she loves, take q positive delight in
sacrificing, for his sake, all her previous
ways of living; and she will do the honors
of the log cabin as II 1t were an ancestral
hall.

Do not forget, as you go on your way
Through this busy world, with its toll and strife
Often kindly word to say
To those you meet in the paths of life.
Do not forget that smile of cheer
May comfort heart that is sad and drear,
And brighten day that is hard and long.
The burning words that forever live,
II may not he yours to speak or give;
But there's heart and hope in a bit of a song.
DO not forget that wherever You go
Kindly deeds may be found to do,
No one so poor but can bestow
The help that will courage and faith renew,
No one so weak who cannot give
The hand that may help soul to live,
And rise again from the trodden clay.
Splendid achievements may never be yours,
But theldeed that for loves sake is DONE eDdures,
And will blossom from day to day.
