While visiting the Berlin geological
gardens, says Lustige Batter, little
Gretchen saw great white bird
standing on one leg in cage. She
threw in a piece Of candy; the bird
gobbled it up eagerly, and thrust its
head through the wire for more.
Presently Gretchen's mother came
along. "Oh, mother, see here! What
kind of bird is this?"
The mother pointed to the sign on
the cage, which read, "The Stork."
"The stock!" cried the little girl
enthusiastically Oh, mamma, do you

which your imagination puts In It will
be gone when you reach it, that the
mirage which you witness today comes
from the distance, but that when you
arrive it will be gone, and you will
find only common, ordinary day
practically duplicate of this CON-
mon, ordinary day, through which you
are now passing?
The trouble with many of US is
that we are waiting for the ideal con-
dition before We enjoy ourselves.
Somehow we cannot seem to manage
to extract satisfaction and enjoyment
out of the day that is so full of cares,
anxieties and the humdrum routine
of life. We are dreaming of that
Utopia somewhere in the future that
will have all the good things, the
comfort, the conveniences and lux
uries without the annoying things,
the thousand pin pricks and the little
rying and the anxiety of today. we
are dreaming of the condition when
our family will all be well, when we
shall be strong and healthy, vigorous,
and when we shall be rid of the things
that harass.
awaiting us. We are really now in
the Paradise which we pictured In
our dreams a few years ago. We all
are in it. This Is the future we
looked forward to when we were In
school or college, when we first left
home to start out in the world for
ourselves, and is it materially different
from yesterday? Is it not the same
humdrum sort of life, with the same
anxieties, the same worries, the same
cares that we had then, and probably
many more? Life is made up of days,
whole is marred. The habit, there
fore, of resolving when we start out
each morning that the day shall find
us little farther ahead, little far
Their on, is a wonderful help. Life
as a whole will be a success If each
day Is a success.
To-day is your day and mine, the
only day we have, the day in which
we play our part" says David Starr
Jordan. What our part may signify
In the great whole we may not I'M
derstand; but we are here to play
it, and now is our time. This we
know; it is part of action, not OF
whining. 1t is a part of love, not
cynicism. 1t is for us to express love
in terms of human helpfulness."
Today is the day that holds the key
to your future. What you do today
you will likely do tomorrow; what
you are today you will be tomorrow,
with simply one days growth or one
days retrogression. Today is the
bulletin-board of what you do tomor-
row.
BY what philosophy can you idle
away your time today, waste your
energy, squander your force, and do
your work like drudge, and expect
magnificent harvest of success,
prosperity and happiness from such
sowing? Today is the seed you are
sowing for tomorrow's harvest, and if
you SOW seeds of carefulness, accu-
racy, energy, zeal and enthusiasm, If
you sow optimistic good cheer, help
full seeds, you will reap the same kind
Of harvest tomorrow.
