Happiness.


=, If we Judge men, by their actions and
desire seems to We that they may attain
happiness. A man is called blessed who
can invent new Joy, or show his fellow
men the way to further pleasures. The
chief question asked, in change of posi-
tion or occupation, often is: will 1
like the new place better than the old"
Men will toll hard, early and late, and
a resompense of happiness at the end Of
it all.
But this world is, after all, a sad one
II is full of disappoint ntment, sick, sorrow
ing, baffled and defeated men. The .cynic
is everywhere in evidence. Bright hopes
are blasted. Riches take unto themselves
wings and fly. away. Position, talent, and
hopeful worldly influence are no protec-
tion against the plague Of, black care.
We have then, says the Chicago Ad-
-ance, the anomaly Of man fitted for hap
piness, and desiring it above all things,
yet having it flee from him. Some phil
osophers have declared that the whole
world is an illusion, and that there is no
such thing as reality. 1t is impossible, we
are told, for a man to attain the things
which he desires, and that it is uselessl
for him to fret himself about them. The
Greeks expressed this idea in the fable!
of Tantalus in Tartarus He was i'm;
mersed in water up to his chin and tree
loaded with luscious fruits hung its
branches just over his head. He was
tempted to drink, the water fed from
him, and when he tried to pick the fruit
just above his head, it vanished away.
But why should happiness flee from a
man when he so ardently desires it? The
trouble is that men for the most part
seek it through relaxation, and the lower
ing of the standards. 1t is the old history
OF Adam and Eve over again. There was
a settling down OF moral integrity on their
part for the grasping of what they con-
sidered greater happiness. Men, ask
to-day: Why should we obey this or
that law Of Cod, man, or of our moral
nature, when it bars the way to our en-
joyment" This is part of the revolt
against what men call ''Puritanism." The
Chinaman smokes his opium pipe regard
less Of the consequences, because it, for
surprising bliss Men seem to care little
for the consequences in their pleasures,
and nence come their wanderings in bleak
wildernesses. '''
Jesus Christ showed that if man would
y, truly happy he must attain to this
happiness through mastery of the situa-
Ion. There is no joy like that Of the
victor. 1t is the man who has gone down
into the tumult and uproar Of life and
VINO tastes of the nectar of supreme joy.
The master words with Christ were:.
Fight watch and pray" here is the, en-
trance to the real Utopia for which men
seek. The man who has no mastery over
his appetites, passions and temper can
never Know what genuine JOY is.
The conditions Of happiness which pro-
duce no illusions and brighten more and
more unto perfect day are not difficult to
name. There must be some supreme OBJ
heart is fixed. There must be harmony
with the will of God There must be en-
durance in the cause of Jesus Christ
There must be an inner peace which no
outer tumult can disturb.

aFu-thest North" )"

The most northerly railroad in the
world was opened recently. For its
whole length it lies within the Arctic
regions. The greater part Of it is in
Swedish territory. and only q small
part cuts through the narrowest por-
ton of Norway until it reaches the
Norwegian port Of Narvik. The chief
object of the line, which now connects
the northern Baltic with the Atlantic,
Is to open up the rich mineral resources
Of North Sweden and to carry them
cheaply to Narvik. The new railway,
which will be known as the Ototen
line, is about 40 miles long, and cost
about O,OO0.-Golden Penny.

while the Germans with the same In
accuracy call it 'kalekuter." or bird
from Calcutta.
AS matter of fact the turkey is
indigenous to America, and Europe
knew nothing of it until the Jesuits
transported it from Mexico to France.
They raised it OH one of their farms
near Bourges, and on this account
there are certain French provinces
where to this day in honor Of its spon-
sors the turkey is called Jesuit"
The English do not know precisely
when the turkey came amongst them.
They approximate it's arrival in the
following antique couplet:
Turkeys, carps, hops, pickercl and beer
Came into England all in one year.
COOKING THE BIRD.
An old English magazine. the Per-
feet Gentlewoman's Delight, gives Il
quaint recipe for cooking turkey.
"Take aud clean your bride on the
back" it says, "and bruise all his
bones; then season with salt and pep
per, crosse beaten, and put into him
good store of butter; he must have five
hours baking"
But the best way to cook turkey is
to roast it, stufing it with trufies. The
truflle is a subterranean edible fungus.
black and warted outside, and pale and
veined within. Hogs are trained to
root the truff1e up. 1t is at its best in
Perigord, and Perigord trufties are the
ones that the American cooks use. for
there are no native truffleS Of any sort
in this country.
A statistician estimates that on
Thanksgiving Day 100000 turkeys
will be eaten in the United States.
These birds will weigh 63,0OO.oO0
pounds, and they will cost $9.00O,OO0.

God's Promises Sure.

God is ever better than we think. We
are not so ready to realize that God Is surrs
to make good His promises. as He is ready
to remember His every assurance and to
give good gifts according to His children's
needs. One of Gods loved and loving
children, expressing gratitude for the com:
ing of longed-for blessing, said: God
told me long ago that some day this should
come to me, and 1 could not doubt His
word When it came was not surprised,
only in way as the coming OF the in
evitable surprises us. Sometimes, you
know, we are surprised to see. the sun rlse

night would fall upon them still far

journey would cease; right where they
were they would prepare to roost. But
the. farmers wife would always. on

well where they were to be found.
and under her urging they would come
home reluctantly.
But one night when they did not
return she thought she would let them
stay out. What harm could happen
to them? Surely they would be all
right in the morning. And she left
them alone. and the next day only
four Of the flock returned. The rest
were found lying dead about the fence
where they had roasted. and in the
neck of each dead body, just below
the ear, there was little round hole.
the work Of a weasel For weasels
kill turkeys in this way to suck their
blood Thus it will be seen that in
many ways turkeys are hard to raise.
They are fed upon cracked corn,
wheat screenings and mush. If it is
cold they will eat good deal and get
fat. But if it is warm, they wander
over the fields gobbling up grasshop-
pers. and such fare does not fatten
them. Only when they eat grain do
turkeys take on flesh, and they will
not eat grain until the weather gets
cold, until there is snow on the ground,
so that they can find nothing else to
eat.
Therefore the Christmas and New
Years turkeys are fatter and better
always than the Thanksgiving ones.
