 Get little song into your heart, and you'll have joy when others suner from depression. My own heart began to sing one day long, long ago: He who hest serves his feilow-nan best

 toward the mother who takes 1t by the hand and so carefully safeguards It.
 The simple truth-the simple trust-fits the finite heart to receive assuring
 messages from the Infinite. This is of

 A new writer comes to the fore to say that the Don't Worry Clubs do not half fulfil their mission; that there Is no sense ins"Don't Worry" that success

 If you think you have inherited dis ease from your parents, just rub it right off the blackboard and just sub stitute for it every mans inheritance is good health. These 1egacies of dis ease and misery are simply an inven- ton of the ievil-the haunters of bug abooed minds. Able physicians do not hesitate to say that people who are constantly falling back on the hered-
 
 ills are skipping the true cause to find an imaginary one. Disease does not run in families. except where the mem bers all follow one mode of living which produces the same disease. Hu- man ignorance of causes is source of much sickness, and a violation Of natural laws the cause of much more. Children who live better than their parents did sometimes fare worse. It is said that one of the things a woman cannot understand is why a man would rather read the accounts of the ball games than love stories. There are many men who cannot understand this, either. A man who can calmly
 read all the mafedictions of scripture
 will get excited over the report of an ordinary game of baseball, and who can tell why? He does not know him. self. Love stories are warm reading
 while ball game reports are made up of cold facts. Perhaps he has to get ex- cited over them to keep up a proper 1 circulation of the blood. A batting | average seems more interesting to such a man than the deepest plot of rival l lovers. Such a distorted taste needs reforming, but it is no easy matter to do 1t.

 The family jar is an unnecessary evil, hut 1t is just as persistent as if the pernlanenee of the nation depend ed upon it. Once in a while we find family who would think that we were talking about a jardiniere, they are so innocent of matrimonial strife. l remember couple. who upon the

It may have been true, but nobody believed It. and they barely escaped having the doubts of their friends and aequaint- ances expressd in presentation medal as champion liars. That would have been too bad, and. looking back, there Is reason to rejoice that calm reason
 prevailed and silence was preserved. The family jar sometimes clears the atmosphere like a thunder storm, but the fewer there are of them. the better.
 The man who says that there are 2,522,666,665 germs in every plate of ice cream cannot frighten the girls from accepting a dish whenever G 3od Heart sends one their way. It is evil
 dent enough the germs were not count
 ed for before he had counted one
 hundredth part of them the ice cream would cease to be ice cream. They cannot be fatal, anyhow, as the girl well knows who has eaten a plate of ice cream day for many seasons. Good things come done up in small parcels. What if every teaspoon, of cream has a million or two of germs in it? Who will stop to pity 9r to spurn them? These must be the goan germs, for they please the palate and do not interfere with the digestion. 1t doesn't pay to contradict a per- son if you are sure you are right T. is not modest to try to show .1ae-s superiority at the expense of another It not only is impolite to do so. but may De perilous.
