A LIFE WORTH WHILE.

81 shall be content if because of me
there shall be better fruits and fairer
flowers"
These are the words of Luther Bur
bank, the modern miracle worker whose
life and deeds prove the sincerity of his
purpose and reveal the qualities of true
greatness.
The man who can say these things
from the heart has a grasp upon the vital
things of life which cannot fail to make
his influence of almost infinite value 10
his fellowmen. He is truly great. He
sees things in their right perspective.
He is an accurate judge of values. He
can separate the wheat from the tares.
He knows what is worth while.
For him the mad, heartleSs rush of the
money getter has no attractions. The
goal is not worth the cost. From him
the sickening scramble for public office
meets with no approval. The price is
too great. To him the sordid bicker-
ings of business and the petty, senSeleSS
doings of society make no appeal. Life
has richer meaning.
He has realized the beauty and the Joy
of unselfiSh service to men. He has
discovered how to make his own life
count in the lives of others. To give
men "better fruits and flowers" 10 give
pleasure and satisfaction to untold mill
ions, TO add to the beauty of the world
and TO make life richer and fuller is 10
such man the attainment of what is
highest and best
The brutal desire for power over men
is supplanted by the beneficent direction
of the forces of nature in the service of
men. A more beautiful world and bet
Ter men and women-thiS is the ideal of
such life. Surely ii is life worth
while.
From "better fruits and fairer flowers"
step with US to the thought that there
are men now living who are giving their
lives to the work of making better men
and mountaineering with the idea of
making it easier for the boys and girls
of the future TO be good citizens; little
harder for them to go wrong. Don't
you know that the pastors of the country
are actuated by this unselfiSh motive?
What would the world become without
them? They are the BurbankS of the
moral world. They are preparing a
crop of men and women TO enjoy the
''better fruits and fairer flowers" that
Luther Burbank is giving his life to I'M
fold.
And then there are the Jacksonville
saloon advocates who were asking the
men who labored to outlaw the saloon
in Florida, "What do you expect to get
out of this fight should Florida go dry?"
The motive of the great majority of
these workers was simply the better
ment of mountaineering the way for a
generation of men and women who
would be able TO enjoy the "better
fruits and fairer flowers" of Luther
Burbank.
But we don't expect the men who
worked for the perpetuation of the Sa-
loon to understand this. That is one
feature of the liquor evil but little dis
cussed-the moral blight it puts upon all
who associate with ii And once this
blight is felt there can be no apprecia-
ton of the "better fruits and fairer
flowers" of citizenship

WOMEN FORCED
FROM HOME.

AlarmiStS declare that the indifference
OF women TO the domestic attainments
is driving the home out of existence.
SociologiStS suggest elaborate schemes
for Turing the wage caring woman from
the typewriter and glove counter back
TO the bread board and pantry 1t is she
the wage-earning woman-who gets
blamed ofteniSt for the evils OF the
situation.
No conclusion could be wider of the
mark than this. The great majority oil
girls and women will. though apparently
content to stand behind counters or toll
in offices, confess TO real hatred for
such life and an intense longing for a
quiet, domestic existence.
Every womanly woman prefers home
life to any other life. The love OF do
meSticity is woven into the very fiber of
her being. She would gladly keep
house for sentiments sake if she could.
But she can not. Circumstances will
not permit her TO do it. Her awaken
ing intelligence will not consent TO such
abnegation of personal rights.
If sentiment answered for currency,
we'll and good. But it doesn't, as the
wife with Stingy husband knows to her
sorrow. She finds it impossible TO rec
oncile her beautiful beliefs about the
joys of home making with the singing

bands whims for the price of new hat

Let the men who cry that women are
crowding them out of business look at,

is the most admirable of all the profess

serve TO be put on the same monetary
plane with other admirable professions?

right to financial independence of wo-
men who keep their homes and train

really prefer.
Until men do this il is useless TO cry
out about the young women with good
positions who refuse TO marry and who
thus aid in abolishing the home. Let

"If Love Were Always Laughter

If love were only laughter
And grief were always tears,
With nothing to come after
To mark the waiting years,
I'd pray life of love to you,
Sent down from heaven above TO you
And never grief come near to you,
To spread its shadow, dear, to you.
If love were always laughter
And grief were always tears.
But grief brings often laughter,
And love, ah, love brings tears!
And both leave ever after
Their blessings on the years;
So |, dear heart, would sue for you,

That grief may lend its calm TO you,
And love may send its balm TO you
