that Is joyless and repulsave. In the New
World, especially, in a country which prides
itself upon it's wealth and enterprise. the
squalor Of the congested districts In our
large cities should be impossible. Yet the
testimony of impartial observers Is to the
effect that America has quite as many
problems of this kind to face as Europe

There seems to be something about
Cuticura remedies which invites the
confidence of mankind. National pccu-

have no adverse influence upon them.
Hence they are to be found In every

Mr.. Bryan seems to have forgotten
politics long enough TO try to run the
universities and churches while. His
friends will doubtless be surprised at
his last venture, but many who have
watched his erratic course during the
past few years would hardly be sur
prised at anything he might do. He
seems to think that no university or
church should take money from our
rich men, or monopolists. There are
two questions that are more vital than
that of the propriety of accepting mon
ey from those sources. One is, What
would the rich men do with their mon
ey If they didn't give it away to be
sent spinning through the channels of
trade, and the other Is, what would
our universities and other institutions
do if there were no rich men to supply
them with funds for keeping them mp
to the standard?

Taking Life Too Seriously.

Taking life too seriously is said to be
an especially American failing. This
may be true; but, judging from appear
ances, it would seem to be worldwide,
for, go where one may, he will find the
proportion of serious not to say anX-
iOus. faces ten to one as compared with
the merry or happy ones. If ''the outer
is always the form and shadow of the
inner" and if ''the present is the full
ness of the past and the herald Of the
future" (and how can we doubt it0,
how many sad histories may be read
in the faces of those we meet every
day! The pity of it is, too, that the
sadness is a self woven garment, even
as is the joy with which it might be
replaced. Ruskin says: Girls should
be sunbeams, not only to members of
their own circle, but to everybody with
whom they come in contact. Every
room they enter should be brighter for
their presence" Why shouldn't all Of
us be sunbeams, boys as well as girls,

years and under to eighty-fve years
and over?-Success.
