HIGHER THAN SELF INTER EST.

HIGHER THAN SELF
II is difficult TO see how there can be more than
one opinion upon tins question Of the separation OF
families IL is there crcum-
stances which may make il desirable Tor the
mother and children 10 go into the country when
the head OF the house must remain behind But
unless there is good and sufficient reason for
such separation Il never be fair to the bread
winner, lead the best results Tor the rest OF
the family.
There are. of course many unsehsh men in the
world who not only consent this annual break
ing up OF their domestic life, but urge It, For tho
sake OF what they believe to be the good Of their
dear ones. they cheerfuIly put in an existence at
hotels or clubs In their forsaken homes through
the swelreriug weeks OF summer. while their faCli-
lies enjoy life at the seashore IN the mountains.
But 1t does follow. because the sacrifice is will
ingly made that it is Just or right 10 accept IT.
The one who tolls that his family may live, and
perhaps enjoy ease and luxury. who carries the
burden OF responsibility for their comfort and well
fare surely needs rest and change as much
those VINO dependent upon him.
There IS deeper principle underlying this Ques-
ton OF the summer vacation than appears at first
sight. This is the often forgotten fact that the

Better a smile than a tear or a sigh.
Better a laugh than frOwn.
Better AT upward look 70 the sky
Than always sad look down.
The JOYS we find in each little day
Perhaps may seem few and small.
But better these little JOYS, I say,
Than to have no joys at all.
Keep faith in the Love that blesses men
AS the sunshine does the sod.
Let Us do our best and trust the rest

CHOICE MISCELLANY
A Novel Railroad.

A railroad whose trains never stop
throughout their journey Is projected
In the plans of Belgian scientist who
has recently proposed "a new trans
portation scheme. The plan is decided
~ revolutionary and aims to save the
time consumed in the case of ordinary
railroads In letting Off and taking ON
passengers at stations. The new trains
a. planned will consist of cars pro-
PEELED by separate motors and will
work, says a writer In Harper's Week
~. in the following manner; when a
station is approached the passengers
and baggage for that station are moved
into the rear car which Is cut on just
before the point Is reached. The pas
sengers DESTROYS Of boarding tho train
take their places In a car on a siding
at the station, which proceeds 10 the
min track at full speed and catches
the passenger train, 10 which II h oou-
pied and the passengers and baggage
transferred Those for the next sta
ton are then received. and In turn the
car IL duly dropped, The scheme Is
most fantastic and a. present impracti-
cable, yet IL must be admitted that
many of the elements necessary, such
as the separate motors. which can be
controlled together or individually. are
already developed"
