THE CHEERFUL WOMAN.
She Is BlcssinE tn Herself and
lIONt AhOut Her.

The woman who IS always cheerful
and obiiging is II boon to those with
whom she is associated.
Amablity that springs from a we'll
regulated and cultivated mind and
heart is the amablity that will stand
the wear and tear of the most bitter
experiences that can come to a woman
1t is not indirerence because the WO-
man who feels most deeply is often the
one whose cheerful presence and re-
fined concealment of the griefs and
troubles that are nearly crushing her
has been we'll tutored In such lessons
of self control wherein pride and self
respect deny to the world at large a
knowledge that is SO frcighted with
humiliation.
The world is much like a mirror, and
gives back the reflection it receives. If
you gaze into 1t with Il scowlng, disa-
greeable face, you will see that face re-
fiected. and the world soon crticises
mercilessly ,he face that betrays what
1t should take pains to conceal
The cheerful woman is BLESSING
and that cheerfulness can be cultivated
Is patent on every side. Some of the
most amiable, lovely women are the
greatest sufferers. But it is we'll es-
tablished fact that the greatest suffer
ers are the most silent and patient
