that we keep abreast of the times

church, while in the northern
states only % per cent With this

MIGHT HAVE BEEN,

A famous American poet is re-
sponsible fer the commonly ac-
cepted belief that lit might have
BEEN are the ssaddest words
OF tongue or pen" When We
look the sentiment straight in the
face, we find it easily works both
ways, for what might have been
might have been equally pleasant
or unpleasant.
The disappointed candidate for
office,or position may just as rea-
sonably feel that his being an
"also ran" is "a blessing, as to
feel that he and the world met
with an irreparable loss by his
defeat. He might have been the
official who was inefficient, and
got fired, or he might have been
the one in thousand that duty
would call upon for sacrafice OF
life and worldly possessions.
The woman who bewails her
fate of missing her mate, and 60
ing through the world alone,
would be far wiser to regard her
freedom and independence as
more preferable than an unkinc
husband, or the unnumberec
cares of what might have beer
hers, had she found a better half
The very Judge whom Whit

the other directions.
In business and professional
life, those who fail could just a
well and just as intelligently
console themselves by believing
that success might have brough
