WHERE LOVE Is
BY Berton Braley. =,
Where love is, hate and rancor can
not be,
Nor doubt or treachery or bleak
despair;
For love makes every evil passion flee
And warns the heart and Gains the
face of care;
Where love is, there is patience and
control,
Faith that inspires and courage
that endures,
Peace of the heart and glory of the
soul,
If you have love-these blessings
shall be yours.
Where love is, there is never lust for
gain
Nor selfishness nor vanity nor
greed.
Love suffers much of wanting and of
pain
And lives alike in plenty and in
need
Where love is, there is mercy, honor,
truth
And tenderness deep-glowing in
the eyes,
And there is joy and-best of all
things Youth,
Eternal Youth which never, never
dies.
Where love is!

VANITY'S VIRTUE.

A FTER all. vanity is as much a
n virtue as vice. 1t is easy
= to recite copy-book maxims
against it's sinfulness, but it is a pas
sion that can move us to good as well
as to evil. Ambition is only vanity
ennobled. We want to win praise and

name it-and sc we write great books.
and paint grand pictures and sing
sweet songs; and toll with willing
hands in study, loom and laboratory.
Do not let us abuse vanity, there
fore. Rather let us use it. Honor
itself is but the highest form of vani-
ty. The instinct is not confined sole
ly to Beau Brdmmels and Dolly VAR
dens. There is the vanity of the pea
cock and the vanity of the eagle.
Snobs are vain. But so, too, are her
oes. Let US Join hands and help each
other to increase our vanity Let us
be vain not of our trousers and hair,
but of brave hearts and working
hands, of truth and purity and nobil-
ity. Let US be too vain to stoop to
aught that is mean or base. too vain
! for pretty selfishness and little mind
ed envy, too vain to say an unkind
word or do al unkind act. Let us
be vain of being single-hearted, up
right gentlemen in the midst of a
world of kraves. Let US pride our
selves upon thinking high thoughts,
achieving great deeds, living good
! lives.-Jerome X Jerome.

L Hammond, Intoxicating let
ter from Greece that he is heir to a
100000 estate, Matthias Constante,
steel worker here, has hired five
close friends at $4,000 year apiece
to help him spend his money. That
is all they will have to do.
This man has the same view Of
riches that the Huns and Goths had
fifteen hundred years ago-lots to eat
and drink, money to spend! The pow
err that wealth gives, the room for
living and serving, the long reach Of

A REAL THANKSGIVING.

n EFT US make this the best Thanks
giving of our lives. Remember
- our gratitude is not measured
by the size of the family larder. Album
dance tends to contentment, many a
man in limited circumstances is hap
pier than others of larger means.
Real wealth and worth lies not in the
abundance man hath, but in con-
tentment's gold.
When the heart is full the whole
world is richer. Your smile will go
long way toward making someone
else happy. A cheerful life opens
avenues to future achievement hid
den to him who sees no good around
him.
The past is matter of record, the
present is near and real, the future
is limited only by yourself. Make it
all it can be, and history will add a
new chapter, and you will be the hero.
Let US give thanks. The nation
needs the inspiration of your song.
There are plenty of groans and grunts
and growls. We need more song.
