THERE is one feature of mod

serves and that is that people are
happier and more cheerful than
they used to be.
In the past, in America at least.
piety and gloom were Synonymous
terms. and the more melancholy the
individual the more religious he or

that to be cheerful showed you to
be light and those who
laughed easily, especially women,
were looked upon with suspicion
as being no better than they should
be. When people met together
they told each other their trou-
bles, and women enjoyed them
selves by mingling their tears when

The World Grows Cheerier.


You couldn't find a broken-beart
ed lad or lassie with a search war
rant, yet people love just IS hon
estly and truly as they ever did.
They have simply recognized that
all emotions are transitory. and
that nothing is so easily transfer
able as the affections
Even poverty used to be a great
er source of misery than It is to-
day. In former times when peo-
pie lost their money about three
generations sat down and cried
over what they used to have. And
everybody sympathized with them.
Now when people lose their money
they roll up their sleeves and go to
work and get it back again. They
don't waste any time beating upon
their breasts or recounting Their
former glories, because they see the
contempt In eveTybody's eyes for
has-beeu
Undoubtedly the greatest sorrow
IN the world is to be unhappily
married, but people are beginning
to meet even this misfortune more
sanely than they used to. The
courageous rectify the mistake. as
they would any other that they had
made, by getting out Of it. Those
that lack the nerve for this heroic
treatment have at least philoso-
ply enough to bear their lot with
forttude, or decency enough not to
whine in public, SO that we hear
less Of ruined lives than we used to,
and are not called upon to listen to
SO many tales of matrimonial trou-
bios.

We have to get a perspective on
the past to realize how different
conditions are today and how we
have cheered up without realizing
it. We no longer mistake bilious
ness for sanctification. Indeed,
there are several religions, with
millions of followers, that are based
on the cult of happiness.
For our souls sake and our stom-
ach's sake we are adjured alike by
priest and doctor to think bright
and joyous thoughts and to dwell
on the good in the world instead
of the evil. People with tales Of
woe TO tell find no ready listeners
and are made to feel by the public
attitude toward them that they are
towards and winners, and If wom-
en- have tears TO shed they shed
them in private. where they won't
aflict anybody else, nor ruin their
own compleXions.
Life hasn't changed. nor have its
sorrows been vanquished. The
griefs that have torn the human
heart since the beginning of time
have not been exercised. Death still
robs US of our beloved; sickness
fortunes US; the treachery Of those
we trusted stabs us to the quick:
riches fly out of the window. and
poverty crawls in through the
crack of the door.
Women still keep lonely vigils
waiting for the drag Of a drunken
footstep on the stair; mothers bend
above empty cradles, and gray
headed old wives are deserted for
younger and fairer faces. Nothing
in the whole category Of sorrows
is changed, but somehow we have
struggled up to a Drawer attitude
toward life and % saner way Of
meeting our troubles.
Just as many terrible things hap
pen to US now as ever happened
TO our forbears, but we do not let
a single misfortune however great.
ruin our lives as they die It isn't
the fashion to be miserable. and SO
We make a bluff at cheerfuIness.
We should be as much ashamed to
be pointed out as brokeu-hearted
as We would be to be pointed out as
having a penitentiary record.
Looked Like Ravens.
Any of us who are middle-aged
can recall two or three old ladies'
with long sweeping black wells. and
mourning garments and melan-
choly countenances. who used to
come and visit our mothers. They
looked like ravens, and they spent
the day i'm a perfect orgy of tears.

these men command salaries Of
princely magnitude, say a thousand
dollars a month, and there are d
dozen or so whose figure is just an
even hundred dollars q day.
There is no doubt, however, that
the genius required in writing ad-
vertisments has been more or less
overrated, and there is soon to be
a swinging back Of the pendulum.
We must understand the truth that
writing is more or less of a knack
Dean Swift said that good man
could write on any subject and
make the theme interesting.
Then" said Stella, write me an
essay on a broomstick." And
straightway the Dean accepted the
challenge and wrote an immortal
thing in literature.
Charles Lambs essay on Roast
Pig" is another example of good
writing about nothing in particu-
lar.
Both Charles Lamb and Dean
Swift, if they lived today. would be
writing advertisements for depart
ment stores, and they would be
making q deal more money than
they ever made in literature.
America has 5000 men who can
write Just as well as Dean Swift.

your advertising would have been
regarded as rank extravaganza at
that time. The argument would also
have been made that no man could
write about things unless he were
an expert in handling them. We
did not perceive that a few simple
rules apply, and that the outsider
often gets a better perspective than
the man who is close up against the
game.
Some Get Large Salaries.
Life consists either in being in
and looking out or in being out and
looking in. And the man who is
outside looking in has a little better
view, often, than the man who is
inside struggling with details, per

had been monuments to grief. They
had put in a lifetime carefully cul-
tivating their sorrow, until they
had actually become melancholy
mad.
Where are those sable ladies to-
day? You never see them. None Of
these MODES come and bedew our
carpets with their tears. Wo
wouldn't stand for such an affic-
ton, and no modern woman. no
matter what her grief, would think
Of burdening her friends with It.
Women are Just as devoted
daughters, just as adoring mothers,
Just as loving wives as they ever
were, and when they lose parents.
or children, or husbands, they are
Just as grieved as any woman Of
the past ever was. But they no
longer sacrifice the living to the
dead, and instead Of parading their
woe before the public, they hide It
out Of sight, and try to add their
mite Of cheerfulness to the world
instead Of burdening it with their
gloom.
In other days IT was the fashion
never to recover from any heart az
fair. If man was f1irted by
pretty coquette, or a girl was fitted
by a faithless swain, public senti-
ment demanded that he should be-
come a surly misanthrope who
hated all women forever after. and
that she should either pine away
with a broken heart, or else live on.

on the report by Myron T. Herrick, for

establishment by bankers OF mortgage

ground covered by the European CO

would be much feebler because the
bankers mortgage banks are not in
tended to deal with cooperative
groups of farmers, but with farm
ers individually: and because in so
doing, there would be no guarantee
that the lower rates of interest would
be permanent II would then be a
case OF the individual farmer versus
the banks and the banks versus the
individual farmer"
That Is the case In A nutshell.
Shall the farmer do his own banking
by cooperation with other farmers, or
will he permit an antagonistic bank

mortgage on his life?

rural credits The speclal conlh'asio' '
which recently returned from Europe
Is meeting in Washington this week
TO draw up its report. The farmer
should watch TO see ii the commits
sion takes the Wall-st. point OF view.
Rural credits are a fine thing the
right kind OF rural credits. But the
right kind does not contemplate
string OF Wall-st. banks throughout
the country taking mortgages on the
farm lands OF the United States. The
right kind OF rural credits is the CO
rperaiive kind where the farmer goes
into business with his neighbors and
does his own banking This Is the
kind which has worked successfully
abroad For example. % farmers in a
neighborhood meet and contribute TO
a common fund enough money 10 start
banking operations. They are all
stockholders in this bank. the main
purpose OF which is 10 furnish money
when needed for moving crops. or
even for holding the crops for more
favorable market This is a legitimate
use for borrowed money The farmer
pays a small rate OF interest and any
profits OF the mutual bank are shared
ty the farmers themselves. The
operations are apt to be profitable be-
cause the security is perfect and the
use OF the money is legitimate; re-
sulting IN better marketing Of the
farmers products. The bank in this
case is identical In interest with that
of the farmer. who is also the bor-
rover.
One advantage OF this cooperative
proposition is the fact that every APP
plication for a loan is subjected TO
the scrutiny or the farmers neigh bors
