!. strenuous chixairx.

It is complained that modern condi-
tons are killing .'the chiYalry of the
middle ages" But MEDIEVAL tales
and romances show what that chivalry
really was. Wife beating was com
mon Incident on the part Of those
knights and gentlemen whose gallantry
was mere convention. The Cheyalier
de la Tour Landry in his book of coun-
sells to his daughters; tells them the
story of a woman who used to contra
diet her husband in public. One day,
after expostulating in vain, he knock
ed her down, then kicked her face and
broke her nose. "And SO, comments
the good chevalier, she was disfig-
ured for life, and thus, through her i'll
behavior. and bad temper, she had her
nose spoiled. which was a great mis-
! fortune to her" But not q word Is said
about the husbands brutality.

For the Future.

The secret Of happiness is inward.
People had good times when there
were no friction matches, no brilliantly
Illuminated streets, no steamboats or
railroads, no sewing machines, no
postage stamps, no comfortably heated
homes, no telegraphs or trolleys. The
elements of happiness are not In things,
but In human nature itself. But the
fairer conditions, the greater oppor-
tunities, which the marvellous modern
inventions afford to the masses Of our
humanity should augment our JOY and
expand our hopes. The most obvious
fact of human history is that Of prog
ress. The race IS following d flying
and growing ideal. II lis inspired and
saved by hope. Every helpful inven-
ton. every improvement Of sanitary
conditions, every new ray OF intellec-
tual and spiritual illumination, every
scientific achievement, every ameliora-
ton of physical suffering, every new
avenue Of enjoyment, every victory OF
righteousness, every faithful deed In
lowly and lofty places, Increases the
splendor and the p&wer of our vision
Of the future. Leslst ! Weekly.

Surf Riding Is a Fine Sport.

= q
AT Waikiki, near Honolulu, is IA
nous bathing beach. Here winter and
summer the surf canoes or, better yet,
the surf boards come dancing in Oh the
long rollers and men become amphib-
ious. There is no sensatio quite com
parable to riding d surf board on a
Pacific roller. It is tobogganing On a
moving hillside Of water, or, If you are
clever enough to stand up on your
board it is taking this hillside on a
single big skee. The beach runs far
out before it shelves into deep water,
and at high tide the breakers begin to
mount almost half mile from the
shore line. You 80 out there With your
surf board and wait for the wave. You
learn to catch it at the right moment,
throw your board inshore and climb
upon it just as the crest of the roller
mounts and catches you. Then on this
crest you sail in toward the shore, to
slide down at last when the wave
breaks, down the foaming incline into
shallow water and churning foam. It
is royal sport. Travel Magazine
