If not, 60 out and buy it.
You can buy mountain tops cheap
now.
You can buy for little the big
mountain called Mount Desert. Some
day it will be worth more than all the
rest of the island upon which Bar
Harbor stands.
You can buy the high, steep hills of
the Catskills, the Adirondacks and
along the Hudson River for little.
Go buy one, and keep it-your

The old Psalmist looked far ahead
when he wrote the words at the top of
this page:
"The mountains shall bring peace
to the people, and the little hills, by
righteousness"
The mountains will give to men
peace, by Righteousness, BECAUSE
THEY WILL BE THE HOMES OF
MEN IN BETTER, NOBLER DAYS.
AND BECAUSE THEY WILL GIVE
MEN A WIDER VIEW OF THIS
EARTH, AND A HIGHER VIEW OF
THEIR OWN DESTINY AND
POWER.
We live now on the flat lands. We
travel in noisy trains in rushing and
crowding.
Our thoughts are flat and narrow,
our spirits reflect the struggles, the
hatred and the competition of dailv
life.
Compared to the man of the future,
the dweller on the mountain top, the
man of to-day in his flat surroundings
and dull life is as a prisoner of the
penitentiary compared to free man.
The prisoner comes out blinking,
pale, dull in mind. He has been hemmed
in by walls, living a dreadful life of
monotony.
AS the prisoner, dazed and unaccus-
toned to breadth Of view, shrinks and
pauses when he comes from the prison
walls, SO the dweller Of to-day on the
flat lands shrinks and pauses when he
reaches a mountain top and looks
across the country, away to the West
and the North and the East and the
South, around this globes curving
surface.

earth will be heaven worthy Of men
who have found peace "BY RIGHTE-
BUSINESS"
By righteousness, which means bv
study, by scientific achievement, by
using the power of the mind, which is
mans only hope, men will have
conquered the earth; they will have
built their palaces upon the mountains;
they will find peace, and then real
HUMAN life on this planet will begin.
1t has not begun yet. There is
nothing real, nothing HUMAN, nothing
above the animal in the lives that we
lead now lives of struggle, striving,
hatred, competition, disappointment,
and premature death.
Look ahead to those days that are
coming think of the man whose days
work will be work of pleasure and
happiness based on ATTRACTIVE
INDUSTRY.
Think of the day when every man
will be his own master, when the only
greatness will be greatness of the mind
gladly recognized by ALL
Think of those homes on the noun
tains and on the hills, the workers in
the day time happy in the cultivation
of this earth, and the men and women
of thought, happy and intensely excited
in the study of the universe and it's
marvels after dark.
That will be real human race
developing the earth, great round
garden, in the short hours of sunshine.
and studying the stars, questioning
the wonders of the infinite. and
developing the mind in the peaceful
hour of night.
Let us hope that we, living now in
the struggle, victims of hideous and
incomplete civilization, shall return To
this earth time after time; let us hone
that the hundreds of thousands of
centuries which the human race still
has before it on this planet will find rs
all still living and working here, havinp
returned many times, and find us
happy, upon the mountains and tba

The tops Of the hills. and the sides of

Some years ago an ass was employed
in the Isle OF Wight In drawing water
by large wheel from a very deep well
When the keeper wanted water he
would say TO the ass, "Tom, l want
water; get into the wheel, my good
lad" which Thomas Immediately per-
formed with promptness that would
have done credit 10 a nobler animal.
and no doubt he knew the precise num-
Der Of times necessary for the wheel to
80 around on its axis to complete his
labor, because every time he brought
the bucket to the surface of the we'll
he stopped cautiously and turned his
honest head to observe the moment
when his master laid hold Of the buck

then had just one more turn to make
to bring the rope to the top. 1t was
pleasing to observe with what steadi-

performed his labor.
