THE BEST OF NEWS.

There was an item In the newspa.
pers recently to the effect that man
In Los Angeles hal left i've hundred
dollars in his will, to woman from
whom he had bought a lot some time
before. His reason for the bequest
was than the value Of the lot mad
appreciated after he bought 1t, and he
felt that it was only fair for the pre-
vious owner to have some share 10
this increased value. This story Is
not too good to be true, but 1t is al
most too good to be printed-in the
average newspaper.
An inferior business man might say
that it was not good business to give
that five hundred dollars. The profit
was all his, and the woman had no
claim upon any part OF 1t any more
than he would have had a claim upon
her to share his loss, II he had been
obliged to sell 1t for less than what he
paid. d'7
IL is very true that II man wants
to do business on that basis the law can
say nothing against 1t. But better men
do business In a better way. Doing
unto Others as We would like TO have
them do unto us Is not an altogether
unrealized dream in the world Of mod.
ern business. 1t Is pity that the
newspapers havn't the wit to find out
more such facts. They are the best
Of news.

A pious man was engaged in prayer
while travelling on the highway. One
of the mobiles of the land, who knew
him, was passing by. and saluted him.
but the pious man did not mind the
salutation and continued his prayer.
The nobleman became vexed, and with
great effort he waited till the man
had finished his prayers; whereupon
he, in an excited manner. said to him:
Thou art stupid fellow for thou
hast .sinned against thine own law,
which commands man to take care Of
life. But thou has just risked thy life
unnecessarily. Why did you not re.
spond to my salutation? II had split
your head open with my sword, who
could have called me to account"
Sir! pray, suppress your wrath:
I hope to quiet you, If you will allow
me only few words in reply. Think
for instance, that while you were
standing in conversation with your
king, friend in passing by saluted
you. Should you like to be interrupt
ed In your conversation with the king
In order to answer that salutation?"
Woe unto me. II were to do So"

Monday a man Of good education,
evident good breeding, claiming to be
81 years old and looking perhaps five
or ten years older, yet possessing none
of the earmarks OF the boozer and
shiftIess, called at this office while on
his way ION foot) to some place, seek
ing enough cash to get meal. He
told the writer that he had little
job printing office in San Francisco
and was doing a good business when
the earthquake destroyed all he had
and killed his wife and only son and
seriously wounded him.
This mans story may be untrue.
Nevertheless, It gives us an idea
which we pass on to Mr.. Carnegie and
Others Of great wealth. While this
man may have lied, the fact remains
that every great city and many small
ones for that matter, hold men and
women who have met misfortune not
Of their making, have failed and lost
their all while struggling honestly and
bravely. Why don't the enormously
rich cooperate with reliable people
throughout the land and where such
cases appear, take them In hand and
place the derelict on firm land, give
him a chance somewhat equal to his
ability to battle with the world and
start Rim anew? Many thus who have
failed would become self.supporting
and able to take their part In the
world, cut would be able to return
that which had been loaned to them.
This kind Of reasoning may seem
folly, yet we cannot but think 1t
would be far better than giving
libraries to cities which are amply
able to provide for themselves along
that line, or sending money to 1.-THE
heather" of foreign lands.

A short time ago Andrew Carnegie
had birthday. The metropolitan
newspapers heralded the fact far and
near that Mr.. Carnegie had already
given away one hundred and sixty
millions Of dollars and that in spite OF
his earnest efforts to die poor, the iron
magnate was richer than he was at

As TO HAPPINESS.

| Inc 0eSlre iOr happiness IS UNIVERSAL.
1t Is an instinct that Is inherent In
every human heart, and many are the
methods pursued through which men
seek to come into that rare conditions
Of mind, happiness.
To the end that she may be happy,
mother in India will cast her dearest
children into the muddy river Ganges.
In the pursuit OF happiness Saint
Simon stood upon pedestal In the
early centuries for years and years.
lie stood there on one foot, through
summers heat and winters cold, hop
ing, trusting that by the presentation
OF his body before high Heaven and
standing In an awkward position ne
would find surcrease from the sorrows
OF life and poppy flowers Of peace that
should lull his soul and make his life a
perfect hymn of delight.
American Indians 10 the olden time
danced around their camp fires, shout
ing and singing, cutting themselves
with knives and stones, letting the
blood flow down upon the rocks, only
desisting from their mad methods
when they could whirl or stand no
more. Modern day Americans, some
OF them, dance and jump to the tune
OF Money Musk, and throw themselves
into mad frenzies in the pursuit of the
dollar; work and toll until every drop
OF blood In their bodies jingles to the
tune OF merry quarters and naives,
and then, exhausted, fall down by the
side Of their treasure, only to find that
the gold that they worshiped has
brought lassitude, destruction Of spirit
and forsaking by friends.
Happiness is not to be found In the
externals OF life.
Man may be possessed Of the great.
est wealth, and yet the contracting OF
his heart when he remembers how the
wealth has been accumulated does not
bring delight, by on the contrary, pain
to his spirit and dismay to his soul.
Happiness is n condition OF being
founded on the recollections OF WELL
spent life, loving deeds In the todays
Of life, and visions OF service in the
days that are TO come.
Sometimes we say that the things
of this world produce happiness or un-
happiness, as the case may be. Speak
we falsely when we say that? There
is nothing In this or the other than In
and OF itself can make for happiness
1t is our attitude toward these things
that makes our pleasure or our pain.
You remember the essay Of the little
boy on pins. He said something like
this; ''Pins are the most wonderful
thing In the world, and they have
saved millions OF lives Amen" Then
when he was asked how pins had saved
life in so many cases he naively made
reply, "By people not swallowing
them" In like manner, our refusal
to be debased, discouraged or disheart.
