BeinQ and Doinu,

1t is said, ITO be good is the way
to be happy" but to be good and to
do good is the way to be happy. What
a happy world this would be if all
would do the best thing for them
selves, if all realized that the only
way to get out of life is to put into
it, that the way to receive is to give,
and the only way to be helped is to
be helpful, and the way to gain life is
to lose it for others, and the way to
go up is to go down, for "The meek
shall inherit the earth" ''He that
humbleth himself shall be exalted" It
is petty to live for self. it is grand to
live for friends, but It's glorious to
live for mankind, and, as one has
said, The only way to work for God
is to work for man"

and her lips moved as If she were
speaking the names of her dead ones.
For many minutes her reverie was
unbrOken, and she heard not the tick

clock.

called the clock. THE son? All! how

which bore the insignia Of death. You
opened it with trembling fingers, and
next moment you were like one dead.
There were days and days when you
lowered between life and death, and I,
fer my part gave up all hopes. Died
IN foreign land; buried among
strangers over the sea. 1t was blow
aimed at a heart twice broken"
The woman covered her face and
mOaned in anguish and the clock con-
tinued:
Don't grieve so, the dead are at
rest forevermore. Life's mistakes may
need to be washed away with tears,
but the dead reaped their reward. You
are old and poor and broken, but who
can tell what new friends the new
year may raise up for you? l cannot
tell you to forget the past, for moth
ers heart ever goes out for her dead,
but the new year may have more
sunshine. Come, Low | am about to
strike the old year out and the new
year in. Let us greet the new with a
smile of welcome as | count-ten-
eleven-twelve-a happy New Year!"
The woman did not move.
"HeighO!" called the clock: I'VE
have left the old behind."
Her hands had dropped beside her,
and her head had fallen.
Dead" clicked the clock, as the
last faint echoes Of his bell died away.

SorneHiStoriC
Happenings
Of january

The first month in the year has al
ways been a fateful one in English
history, but it began most specially to
be recognized as such during the reign
of Charles l. 1t was on January A.
1912, that the attempt was made to
arrest the five members. On the tenth
of the month, three years later, Arch
uary 80, 1649. saw the kings own head
laid upon the block.
There is probably no act of parlia-
ment which has ever been the cause
of such amazing dissensions and dis
cord as that which brought about the
union between Great Britain and Ire
land. This came into force upon Jan
uary /, 1901 1t was in the same
month that Richard Treyithick, the
Cornish inventor, perfected the first
steam locomotive which ever moved
upon an English road.
The great William Pitt, the most
able prime minister who ever CON
trOlled the destinies of the kingdom,
came into Office at Christmas, 1888,
and died in January 1906. His great
rival. Charles James Fox born in Jan
uary, 1749, only survived Pitt six
months.
One of the greatest boons that a ma
ton ever received from its govern
ment was conferred upon Great Britain
on January |, 1S40-nameiy, penny
hostage. Adhesive stamps had been
invented by Mr. James Chalmers Of
Dundee, six years previously, and
these superseded Mulready's envelope
later in the same year.
January has for long time past
been a very notable month in the his
tory of the British royal family On
January %. 1858, the Princess Royal
was married to Prince Frederick Will
liam of Prussia. The German kaiser
was born in January, 1859.
Prince Henry Of Battenberg's death
occurred on January 90. 1896. and the
duke of Teck's life came to an end on
the twenty-first of the month. 1900.

The Old Year
and the New

"Seven-eight-ni Do you hear
that?" asked the old clock in the cor
ner. Here it is full hour after your
bedtime, and yet you sit there staring
into the fire."
In front of the fire sat an old wom-
an-gray haired, wrinlled, feeble The
voice of the clock did not disturb her.
but as she watched the fitful flames,
one could have read her thoughts.
But it's excusable on this night"
continued the clock, in soft tones.
"Heigho, but it's the last night Of the
old year. Three hours more and we
are done with 1909 You and | are
going to watch the old year out to-
gether Let's see? How many years
have | seen come and go? Forty-ex-
actly forty with this one That's long
time, long time"
The woman rocked gently to and
fro, and by and by the clock suddenly
called out

The woman wiped her tears, and
there was a feeling of suffOcatiOn as
she let memory bring up the events.

after a while. How time does fly! |

The woman chOked back her sobs.

A Resolution
CO for C
New Years

The nOblest resolution that any citi-
would be the resolution to live more
faithfully by the golden rule, that sub
lime principle of conduct for this
world and for all worlds. Failure to
live by this law causes the chief sor-
rows and collisions among men, says
Edwin Markham in Success.
Let each earnest man search into
his words and ways, determined to
find the special manner in which ne
breaks the golden law-his special
habit that works injustice or unhappi-
ness in his shop, his office, his home,
his city. He will find, perhaps. that
in the shop he is in the habit of mis-
placing tools, and this hinders the
work of his comrades; that in the Of
fee he is in the habit of being late
in keeping appointments, and thus
steals other peoples time; that in the
club he is in the habit of belittling
worthy competitors, and thus joins the
gang Of thieves who steal regulations:
that in the home he is in the habit Of
monopOlizing the conversation. and
thus fails to draw out the powers Of
Others; that in the city he is in the
habit of splitting on the sidewalk, and
thus spoils the comfort of his towns
men; that in business he is in the
habit of misrepresenting his goods.
and thus robs under the cover of GUS
tom.

One year later. on January %, 1901,
came the end of the most famous reign
in English or any other history. Queen
Victoria died at $50 on the fateful
evening.
In northern attitudes no nation
fights in winter if it can possibly be
avoided, and yet January has seen
some Of the toughest struggles of mod
ern war. January, 1871, holds the rec
ord for fierce fighting. During that
month there were no fewer than SIX
terrific battles between the French
and the Germans. The last was Gen.
Trochu's grand sOrtie from Paris,
which ended in his defeat and in the
extinction of the last hopes Of Paris
and her citizens.

extraordinary offer 70 which

you have responded was made In com
pliance with the will of our late client,
Mr.. Benjamin F. Morton. He was a
trifle eccentric, and one Of his hobbies
was writing poetry. He took a great
fancy to nephew of his and spared
no money to have the boy we'll edu-
Gated. The old gentleman himself had
very limited education. and he was
determined that his nephew should
not be handicapped as he had been
Well, just about the time the boy got
through college the old gentleman
struck snag in this poem of his
about Fedora Lillian Hildegarde ct al.
and he called upon his nephew to help
him out with rhyme for Rachel
The young man informed him that
there was 40 such rhyme. but his
uncle refused to believe it, He insist
ed that as the lad had had college
education he could find rhyme if he
chose. Well. the upshot of it was that
the old gentleman took it into his
head that his nephew was obstinate
and ungrateful, and he cast him off. A
snort ume before he died, however, ha
finally concluded that perhaps there
really was no rhyme for Rachel, and
he decided TO reinstate his nephew ir
his Will; but with this proviso: That
rhyme should first be advertised for
and that should any person produce
such rhyme within a year then the
money should go to such person, in.
stead of the nephew.
AS the executors, We, of course, fol-
lowed the provisions of the will, but
we were definitely satisfied there was
no such rhyme. And yet you say you
have found one. l am free to say it
seems incredible, incredible. Still, a,
the same time, the offer is bona fide
one and will be carried out to the let

certainly, certainly, | did not
mean to hurry you. OF course, un-
dcrstand, you feel a trihe agtated;
but take your time and you'll recall
the rhyme in minute or two"
Several moments passed in silence.
Then Marjorie arose. She faced the
two lawyers, and with a tremor in her
voice that she struggled bravely to
subdue, she said slowly: Il have not
forgotten the rhyme; but-but | have
decided not to submit it,"
1t was New Years day when Mar

called late in the afternoon Why had
he come? she asked herself. Was it

ed heart to bleed afresh? He appeared
not to heed her constrained manner,
