THREE HELPS TO HAPPINESS.

When Lucy Larcom was fourteen
years old she worked in a cotton mill
in Lowell, Mass. After she had been
there few weeks, we are told in the
Youths Companion, she asked and
received permission to tend some
frames which were near a window
through which she might look out on
the Merrimaek River and its pic
turesque banks.
After she had worked there a lit
tie while longer, she began to make
the window-seat and frame into a Ii
brary. She pasted the grimy paint
all over with clippings of verse which
she gathered from such newspapers
and magazines as fell into her hands.
So the little factory drudge Sc
cured for herself three essentials for
human happiness: work, the sight of
nature, and the beauty of the poets
vision. No doubt the work was Of
ten wearisome. Perhaps some of
the poetry was not very good. But
the river and its meadows and hills
must have been always refreshing,
and the spirit which SO intelligently

BOY WHO KNEW HOW.

An American boy, nineteen years
of age, once found himself in Lon
don, where he was under the neces-
sity of earning his bread. He was
not like many young men in these
days, who are willing to do any
thing" because they know how to do
nothing; but he had learned how to
do something, and knew just where
to go to find something to do; so he
went straight to printing Office and
inquired if help were needed.
Where are you from?" inquired
the foreman.
America" was the answer.
"Ah,' said the foreman, from
America, seeking employment as a
printer. Well, do you really under
stand the art of printing? Can you
set type?"
The young man stepped to one of
the cases and in brief space set up
this passage from the first chapter of
John:
Nathaniel said unto him, Can
there any good thing come out OF
Nazareth? Philip saith unto him,
Come and see."
It was done so quickly. so &C
curately, and administered delicate
reproof so appropriate and powerful,
that it at once gave him influence and
standing with all the Office. He work
ed diligently at his trade. refused to
drink beer or any kind Of strong
drink, saved his money, returned to
America, became printer, publisher

And here for you the wine of love
to drink.
Then fresh from converse with your

LYDIA THORNHILL, TEACHER.

Stephen West sat in his study, his
face in his hand.
Before him lay letter still I'M
folded, fresh from his typewriter.
His resignation-and his signature
was already attached to it. With
the finishing of that letter, it seemed
to him that the old life was rolled
up as scroll.
He could look back on years of
faithful labor interspersed by many,
many helpful deeds. He had done
good-much of it. He realized that,
and it was solaee to him now. AS
far as he had gone, he had been nc
sluggard. He thought again of that
first ministry, when his ordination
was still fresh, when he he had fell
the call strong upon him. With
what zeal, what enthusiasm, he had
entered into that struggle. Witt
what cheerfulness he had accepted
the small salary. How happy hs
had been over the preparation of hi,
sermons. With what painstakins
care he had written them. How
grandly and energetically he hae

The young woman rose.
"Oh, thank you. sir" she cried.
But Stephen West had taken her
by the hand.

huskily. II wish we were all as

can trust him to open the way"
So she went on, her mind at ease,
but in the study she left, Stephen
West did an unusual thing.
He took the clean, fresh, unfolded
letter upon his desk and he tore it in
half And then, though it was Sat
urday morning, he drew his pad and
pencil forward and wrote that ser
mon that electrified his congrega-
ton on that memorable next day.
And his text was: Here am I, Lord.

THE CHILDREN'S TABLE MAN
NERS.

After a long illness in the hos
pital, l returned home to find that
my children's table manners had
suffered a complete decentralization"
says Woman's Home Companion.
They 'gobbled,' used knife and fork
indiscriminately and always awk-
'wardly, regarded their spoons as
shovels and, in short, were perfect
little savages.
Gin order to remedy this quickly
I started a series of company lunch
cons at which l was the hostess and
the children the guests. I set the
table as prettily as possible and made
funny little place-cards. The chill
dren played up delightedly, took
grown-up names and even washed
their hands without a murmur. We
made a set of simple rules: The
guests who behaved perfectly re-
eeived three pieces of candy, the
guests who made only one mistake
received one piece Of candy, while
any unfortunate guest who commit
ted three breaches Of table etiquette
received no candy at all
Questions on table manners were
in order at any time, to be answered
by the hostess.
Il chose dishes for these lunch
cons which are not always easy to
eat elegantly, and 1 was very happy
to see how quickly the children i'm,
proved in table manners and other
manners as we'll. for our company
luncheons' seemed to help general
courtesy quite wonderfully. The best
of it was that there was no nagging
nor cross words. It was all good
fun, and my four youngsters cal
now go anywhere and eat anything
and mother has the proud conscious
ness that they will always appear tt
good advantage"

Jerusalem Is interesting Is no 9th
er city In interesting. and that quail
ity OF IL increases It's grip upon you
stirring the faculties 70 an almost
untiring activity-an activity that
perhaps becomes feyerish at the few
erish time Of Easter. In Jerusalem
surely the most sleepy mind must
wake, the most phlegmatic tempera-
ment be whipped to a strong alert
ness. Conflict seems in the air,
turmoil proceeding rather from the
souls than from the bodies OF men.
By their great wall the Jews wall day
after day. They weep for vanished
power, vanished glory, a possession
taken from them. But there is much
else to weep for in the city whose
name means foundation or habitation
Of peace, where Moslems keep the
Turkish soldiers with loaded mus
kets hold in check the furious pas
sions of Christians.
From the Russians who weep in
Gethsemane one may go down into
the city to the Jews who weep in
their willing-place. 1t is strange and
interesting to compare the two
griefs. Nothing in the Holy Land
touched me so much as the simple
faith, the deep reverence, the heart
felt love and sorrow, Of the Russian
pilgrims. Totally free from self
consciousness, like children, they
show all the feelings Of their hearts.
In all the holy places they kiss the
ground. Wherever they think the
Saviour suffered or was sad, they
weep to-day, men and women alike.
The Jews are prouder, are more self
conscious; yet every time I visited
their wailing-plaee I felt that their
grief, too, in it's different, less touch
ing way, was often genuine.
The wailing-place is a rather mar
row paved alley between a white
washed wall and a gigantic ancient
wall formed Of huge blocks of I'M
cemented stone, worn away, SO it is
said, by kissing lips. Weeds sprout
in places in the numerous erevices
and cracks. In the alley are wooden !
benches. The Jews, both men and
women, go there not only On Fri !
days, but on all the days of the week. |
Standing in rows close to the great |
wall, with their faces toward it and
almost touching it,, they read their
Hebrew books of prayer, murmur |
the words aloud, weep, bow, some
times almost to the earth, and often |
press their lips fervently against the |
blocks Of stone. The women wear
shawls and keep by themselves at |
the ends Of the alley. The men clus-
ter in the middle. Behind these
mourners blind Mos1em, conducted |
by Jew, often goes to and fro de-
handing aims from the onlookers. |
The waiting place is in the Tyropeon
Valley, and the great wall is at the
west side of the temple area. Where
as the Russian pilgrims never even
glance. at those who watch their tears
such at least is my experience of
them-the Jews are often obviously
aware Of the interest their mourningI
creates. I have seen them peep fur
lively round to take observa tons, and
return to their lamentations with
what seemed greater zest when
they Knew the eyes of strangers were
upon them. Nevertheless, many Of
them really weep, pray with earnest
ness and rock themselves to and fro
as IL genuinely tormented. But the
Jew is by nature acutely aware Of
the. things and people about him. The
Russian peasant is nat,-Canturv
