To Be Happy.

Happiness is not so much, after all in
selfish pleasures as in making others Joy
fu, If this thought could be impressed
upon children at as early an age as their
minds could receive it. much unhappiness
would be avoided, and many a child who
is now looked upon as a selfish little ty-
rant would be JOY instead to parents
and friends. Then there is the spirit of
envy SO prevalent among children. The
cry often arises that some other child has
better things or enjoys better times This
thought plants thorn in the heart OF
tho little one, and it rankles there, pierre
ing deeper oftentimes than the parent
imagines. In this way the child misses
what pleasure might come to him by
way of what he does possess.
Sometimes this trait of envy in chill
dren is the result of example. The moth
cr frets because her neighbor has better
clothes or better household furnishings,
oF because someone else rides in a car
rage while she must utilize the trolley
car, and the words dropped, perhaps
heedlessly, have their effect upon the
children. They, too, begin to look about
TO see what their playmateS have that
they have not, and the seed of discon-
tent is planted. Soon the habit is estab-
lished, and the child, thus started on the
wrong path, becomes a fretfuI, disagree
able little person.
But if the mother is of happy, con
tented disposition, bound to make thu
best of things as sac finds them. she may
he ever striving to make conditions bet
ter. ard yet impress her children that
whatever is done should be done cheer
fully and that in the spirit of cheerful
ness and kindness lies the secret of happi
ness; that time spent in vain longings fol
he possessions of others is time worse
than wasted, and that such wishing
brings only discomfort. IT is this dis
content and envy that makes an actua
nuisance of many a child who would b,
happy and lovable if he had been trained
in the right direction in the beginning

them from top to toe in the morning; the
rush of the bare feet hurrying fast across

laughter: the shouts of joy-the whole OF
this family pageant belongs to dear
Santa Claus. We owe it to him. Gradu-
ally, as the golden mists of childhood
clear before the sun, and the trailing
clouds of glory fade, our small men and
women discover that Santa Claus is not
one, but ten thousand, that he is better
than they knew, being just the spirit vi
