Tranquility.

Who does not love tranquil
heart. a sweet-temppred, balanced
life? 1t does not matter whether
it rains or shines, >or what misfor'
tunes come to those possessing
these blessings, for they are always
sweet, serene, and calm.
That exquisite poise of charac-
ter which we call serenity is the
last lesson of culture; it is the How
ering of life, the fruitage OF the
soul.
1t is as precious as wisdom, more
to he desired than gold, wen, than
even fine gold. How contemptl-
BILE mere money-wealth looks in
comparison with a serene life Il
life which dwells in the ocean OF
truth, beneath the waves. beyond
the reach of tempests, in the eter-
nal calm!
How many people we know who
sour their lives, who rum AL tlia'
is sweet and beautiful by explosive
tempers, who destroy their poIse OF
character by bad blood! In fact
it is a question whether the great
majority of people do not run
their lives and mar their happiness
by lack Of self control. How fe"
people we meet in life who ar
well-balanced, who have that ex
quisite poise which is characteristic
of the finished character!-Novem
Der Success.
Taking it easy comes natural t.
the majority of people. If the,
were not urged by the spur o
necessity to develop their powers
our list of great, or even usei''
men and women would be YER
short. The world would go back
ward instead of forward.

necessary for time at least to retain
some Of the postal officials Of III" island
in their present places until The bust
