Hope and Happiness
eY Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1918. by Frank Crane)

Life is composed of two elements, hope
and happiness
Those who have not happiness have
hope, and hope is better than happiness.
Hope feeds on the future, which is in
finite. Happiness is of the present time
which is but point
Hope is a stimulant. Happiness is ano-
dyne.
Happiness is easily destroyed: men,
Dry, word fear is fatal Hope
springs eternal in the human breast"
Hope is sunshine. Happiness is a can
die in the wind.
No one can be happy forever; but We
can hope forever.
Whenever YOU gain happiness you
lose hope. But the more hopes the
happier.
With happiness comes safety. No
man has his fill Of hope.
The pleasure Of happiness comes from
sat- faction, the pleasure of hope from
continuous unsatistiednesS.
Happiness is a momentary feast hope
an everlasting hunger
1t is better to travel than to arrive 1t
S better TO struggle than TO succeed
Life itself Is an illusion; they that
iweN in hope are IN perpetual illusion.
and hence taste more life. Among the
happy illusion ceases
Among tie failures who dream Of sue
css. among the young who expect to do
great things. among ,he poor ~ho save
20 become rich. among The lovers who are
trunk With anticipation among all who
rave not ye' attained, the bounties of
Top, are distributed
That is why ne earth is So full Of hap
mess.
That is why We believe the Deity to
o good If our hopes we're all realized
ONE day the next day no one would be-
eve in cod
Heaven is built uoon the pillars Of
opo No one looks forward to immortal
- because he Is happy it is because he
hopes
Hope is the eye of the soul happiness
- us ~A'lllh. I
When the divine wc~kmen make men
yrd -4raaen they do not give them hap
mess. lest they turn from life with
Jathug: they give them hope, which
makes them cling paS5iOnateiy to life.
In happiness the strings of Iife's harp
IRE loosened and cause discord all music,
III harmony. comes from hope, which
.eeps the strings taut
The creed Of happiness is for ground
jugs the creed Of hope makes heroes.
If heaven is the complete satisfaction
If our longing, then we are happier here
han We will be there
Therefore that other life must be as
thls, perpetual reaching forward, an un-
easing advance rainbow after rainbow.
Illusion appearing after diSsolvng illu-
son.
There is no end, no goal. no moment
Nnen the high soul can say: 1T is
nough let this moment last forever!
For the essential distinguishing
characteristic Of man is progress; the
law Of his nature is development; and
the constant instinct that functions in
him SO long as he exists Is hope.
Hence so long az we hope We are i'm
mortal. When We are stated, we taste
death
Memories are always little sad, the
present is always a little disappointing;
nope alone is unstained JOY.

EQUIPMENT ORDERS
REACH BIG TOTALS
Demand for Freight Cars Is
Especially Active.

Railroad equipment orders placed
during the third quarter Of this year
included b60, 900 tons OF rails, 33,343
cars, 525 locomotives, $4,000 tons OF
bridge work and about 10000 tons Of
miscellaneous work, including track
supplies. To provide for this equip
ment about $4,000 tons of steel in
various forms have been needed, about
rs per cent of which is understood 10
have been purchased by the merchant
builders and by the railroads. The
cars ordered in the last three months
exceeded the contracts placed during
the second quarter by about 40 per
cent. The September orders were tho
largest for any month since January.
There was a heavy falling off in rail
contracts in the third quarter, because
of the phenomenal buying in April,
May and June. The orders for motive
power during the third quarter de-
creased about 35 per cent, as COM
pared with the preceding quarter, but
domestic railroads are again actively
in the market for locomotives. Mer-
chant builders of engines are now sub
hitting tenders for the building OF is
locomotives.

Wheat for Export.
Washington, October 0.

The Department of Agriculture, in
its October report on crops, to-day
placed the indicated production OF all
wheat this year at 1857 900 bushels,
against 1,O11 ,5O5, 900 bushels harvested
in 1915 and SOL ,017,0 900 in 1914. The
fve-year average is $4,000, 900 bushels.
The indicated production Of corn is
2,717,934000 bushels, compared with
1854 1885, 900 bushels last year.
With a carry-over of approximately
100, OO0, 900 bushels from last years rec
ord breaking crop of 1,o11 100000 bush
els, Agriculture Department officials be-
lieve this wears short crop will be sufti-
Gent to meet domestic requirements
and leave about 100000 bushels
available for export, to help supply the
heavy demands of the warning En-
ropean nations.
Other cereal crops also suffered from
the adverse conditions of the last sum-
mer, and smaller production has re-
suited in most crops. White potatoes
particularly will be short, the crop this
year being the smallest in the last FIVE
years. Tobacco, hay and rice, however,
promise record crops this year.
