The Sunny Side OF Life.

When to be disappointed
You in any way feel inclined,
Remember there are others
Who are in that state of mind,
When you are short of money
And bills are coming due,
Remember there are others
That are in that boat with you.
And should you go acourting
And your best girl turns you down,
Just tell her there are Others
And don't begin to frown.
Look always on the sunny side
Whichever way you go,
For down the stream your boat will
glide
And up you'll have to row.
Adapt youhself to circumstance
And you will reach the shore
When on the train apply the brake
When in the boat the oar.
Always keep your courage up
And never let it fail.
Then you will reach the mountain
top
Now join me in the chorus sweet,
Well sing it loud and long,
The darkest hour we'll have to meet
Is just before the dawn.

pecting to retail at so cents, but that
machine warned him Monday morn
ing Of a sudden drop in eggs in New

TUBERCULOSIS SUNDAY.
April 30 Appointed For Sermons On
The Subject.

IHo ouDJecJ.
April 80 has been set aside this
year as Tuberculosis Day." and will
be observed in 100000 churches in
the country in a manner similar to
that of tuberculosis Sunday in
1910, when over 10000 sermons
were preached on the prevention of
consumption. In this first official
announcement of the occasion made
by the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis, the leaders of the movement
state that they hope to enlist all of
the 100000 church members in
the country. In one respect Tuber-
culosis Day will differ from Tuber-
culosis Sunday of 1910. Instead of
requesting the churches to give to
the tuberculosis cause a special Sun
day service, the national association
is going to ask this year that meet
ings, at which the subject of tuber-
culosis and its prevention can be dis
cussed, be held on Sunday, April 80,
or on any other day near that date,
either in the week proceeding or the
week following. "What we want"
says DR.. Livingston Farrand, eXecu-
tive secretary of the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis, in a report on this
movement, sis to have this whole
subject of tuberculosis discussed in
all of the 100000 churches of the
United States at as nearly the same
time as possible. This does not
mean that stated service must be
given over to this work, though that
might be desirable, but that any min
lister, or other authority whom he
may invite, can present the problem
to his congregation before or after
his regular service, or on any day
within the week preceding or fol-
lowing April 80"
