 As has been in substance pleaded in this place many a. time in the dear years that are dead, it is pleaded again, be- cause true hearts demand, we have got to look and listen; to reflect, to keep our minds open for the reception of truth, and an life is an anthem. There is a hymn in every breeze, melody in every zephyr, tender harmony in every ray of sunshine, and every flower kissed to life by the sunbeams that dance from the darkest clouds which may1ower above us on the journey to the everlasting ssIumber- land in the sphere we know not of in our common human conception One golden afternoon compensates us for many a day of gloom. All our yesterdays may have been unhappy, but the one to-day of, joy leads us to acclaim all this life joyous.
  but we can leave them uncounted in the general sum if we will 1t that way. The world Is ours for joy, not for mourning. Long-faeed repining Is disease of the mind. or it is actual hypocrisy The un- happiest woman ever knew was the. widow of a week. In a scandalousfy short time she married another man, who broke her heart sure enough There is another widow who hasn't smiled in eleven years That is ordinary madness She is help- loss against the death sentence that came into effecct in her household. She has never struggled against grief, and her tears have washed out nothing that has been painful to her.

 Every rostrum should be the sacred desk from which nothing but the doctrine of cheerfulness could be preached. There cannot be in paradise any angel who weeps- Heaven resounds with laughter. None of the saints wears long face; none is sorrowful; none mourns of anything. There are light and laughter in the ideal heaven. Gaiety runs riot. The angels pursue q ceasless round of pleasure. Mill lions of men and women weep over their own sins, and remorse makes them jab- ject slaves But if they ever get to heav- en they will find that the strets of the New Jerusalem have never been polluted by tear.
 Be not unkind to- any one,a any living creature, my beioved.
 Be good of heart and be happy, and laugh, laugh, laugh!
