had to make the journey alone.

is supposed to be one of the finest in
Europe, but most of the way to Wen

told me the reason was that they had
been unable to get enough coal to
start with and that these stops were
necessary to get fuel. Apparently
they took on about a shovelful at each

about two o'clock in the morning, and
then uniformed customs officials went

So far Jackson had not given deep

From that time forward his every act

of his marked traits, and duty was to
him of first consideration. His rev.

THE PROBLEM OF LIFE
Tolstoi's Farewell Message to the

HAPPINESS, the happiness Of your
self and others, can never be based
upon the faIlible institution sustained
by force, but only upon the health OF
the soul. Only through the soul can
the Individual or h community at
tain the greatest happiness. The true
happiness which very human heart
pants for lies not in institutions up
held by force. 1t can be attained at
any Of life, By the path %
love.
Such happiness was granted to us
hundreds OF years ago. Men, how
ever. failed ia understand it and did
not grasp it. Now the time has come
when we must accept ii; firstly, be
cause the folly and suffering Of our
lives have gone 50 far that Il stat"
is unbearable; secondly, Ii teaching
Of Christ has now become SO plain
thai no man can fail to see it.
We reach salvation only by reali--
ing that our life does not rest In tina
body but in the spirit Of God which
lives with us; that therefore all the
efforts hitherto directed to the i'm
~pToVemcnt OF our bodily life must be
directed to noe single n essential
work: thai each must extend his love
not only to those that love him, but
as Christ says. to all men, especially
to those who are from us.
or hate Us. IOU6y our lie IS 50 lar
removed from the ideal that it seems
impossible to transfer our interest
from worldly things to the II essen
tia and unaccustomed work of love.
That. however, Is q deiusion. TO
love all, even those who hate us, IS
really SO remote from our souls as to
hate all and fight with all. A change
in our conception OF life Is not i'm
possible; the real impossibility is TO
continue the fight Of all against alt
in which we are now engaged. Only
such q change can deliver men from
the suffering they row endure, and
the change must therefore come soon
er or later.
Why should we torture ourselves
instead Of remembering that the
greatest happiness is destined for u.s.
All depends upon ourselves. The path
is easy and direct and brings nothing
but happiness.
An objection is raised by those who
suffer. by the poor and oppressed
THAT is all right" they say, for tho
rich the rulers Of men. They
| have tn enemies in their power and
can afford to love them. For us who
suffer and arc oppressed, that is an
other matter" hat is not true. It
is still easier for the poor h for
the rich. The poor need do nothin.
that IS against the command OF love-
they need AXE no part in deeds of
violence. For the rich the gospel OF
love is harder.
