what to do. He longs for something
that will make him forget his daily oc-
cupation; he wants something active
to indulge in; something to make his
blood Jingle with the joy of living.
What shall he do, he again asks
himself He knows not. 1t is easy to
imagine that if man finds himself in
this position very long. life begins to
lose some of it's charm. And the av-
erage man does find it this way
Things come to such a pass, at length,
that he halls with delight the dawn of
the next day, that he may again
plunge into his daily work and so for
get his state of discomfort which this
lack of something to do breeds. This
is the way the average man finds life.

ing routine about it, but it must be
something to fill in his spare time and
something which he will always look
forward to with interest.
One individual in ten might feel that
reading would be just the thing for
this purpose, but not so the average
man. The average man might read
for a few minutes, but he would soon
give up his book in despair and go
out into the street for walk, wander
ing about aimlessly all the while
brooding over the lack of something
interesting to do
He doesn't want to while his hours
away, and yet he is at a loss to know

an individual dwells on such discour-
aging thoughts for any length of time.
it will have an effect on his nature.
he will become sour and cynical and
pessimistic; with nothing to do, his
mind may easily turn to vicious
thoughts, and straightway he is on the
downward path
Is there no remedy for this condi-
ton? Yes, there is. The one way to
counterfeit this danger is-keep busy.
Keep your mind occupied with some
thing that interests you.
But that is not sound advice, you
say. You know that if you keep your
self busy it will help you, but that
isn't the point you are after. You
want to know with what you shall
keep yourself busy.
This is the answer. If you have not
already something to occupy your
spare time, then CULTIVATE A HOB
BY. Cultivate hobby, and in this
hobby will lie the secret of a portion
of the renewed charm which life will
bring you. 1t may not be the means
of making you altogether happy, for
it takes higher ideals than mere world
ly affairs to afford true happiness, but
it will be the means of encouraging
within you more contented state of
mind.
But what hobby shall you cultivate
that win work this wonder?' is your
next natural question, All there is
where the only rub comes in. That is
something which each individual must
select for himself, although in this art
icle it is proposed to give suggestions
that will help one to decide what hob
by he shall choose to cultivate
What hobby shall you choose? Turn

CULTIVATE A HOBBY

Why are so many people unhappy?
My answer would be, because they feel
they are accomplishing nothing in life.
After their days work is done, they
have nothing worthy to occupy their
thoughts. Their evenings, their spare
moments, are simply wasted, they feel
Of course, they might devote them
selves to profession, and this would
keep their minds occupied. But there
is no profession that appeals to the
average man as worth making a life
study. He don't care to study pro-
fession. He feels it would be folly
to fit himself for calling he never
would pursue, merely to keep his mind
engaged. A professional career has no
charm for him, and this being the case
he would not be able, to study it with
enthusiasm or with hope for the flu
ture. And even if he did study pro-
fession for this reason, it would only
be a drudgery-nothing else. SO this
thought is dismissed abruptly. His
mind turns toward other things.
What shall he do in his evenings,
therefore? Use them for diversion and
recreation? Oh, yes, social affair,
the theatre, OF. association with friends
is well enough to occupy him three,
perhaps four nights week, on an av-
erage:- but his tastes, and more impor-
tant still, his circumstances, Will not
permit too frequent indulgence in
Pleasures Cup Besides, he wants to
accomplish something useful in the
three or four nights a week he finds
himself with nothing to do. He is not
satisfied to simply kill the time;
and diversion, and perhaps study, but
idle ir away. Is there not something
that will afford at once entertainment
which does not demand too great an
exertion on his part? Something he
does not force himself to undertake,
but which he can stop when he de-
sires, and resume when he feels in
clined to do so? There must be moth
