uous their day they have one com fort-they know few if any sleepiess
 nights. Books and papers sent to them, they read over and over again
 apreciating hugely those of a lively character. They crave amusement.
 Long, happy laughts are better than
 the medicines their kits contain. None of them are coddled. Each must
 shoulder his own pack. Sweethearts
 at home need not fear that absence will estrange them. Absence makes the soldiers heart grow fonder. Each soldier secretly cherishes in his heart
 the hope of advancement knowing every general was at one time a sol dier like himself.

 APPEAL TO YOUR GIRL

Miss Sophie writes: tT have turned

 His wife sends me piteous letters to break off. I love him. I will abide by your opinion.'' To accept the attentions of mar ried man, and openly confess you love him, indicates you to be a young wo-
 man deficient in moral principles pos

 him to return to his wife and children. Scorn to have anything further to say to him.

Germany's success by skill, by in
dustry, by knowledge, by enterprise,
we did not grudge or oppose, but adj
mired rather. She had built up for
herself a real empire of trade and in
fiuence, secured by the peace of the
world. We were content to abide the
rivalry Of manufacture, science and
commerce which were involved by
her success, and stand or fall as we
had or did net have the brains or
initiative to surpass her. But at the
moment when she had con~spicuously
won the triumphs of peace she threw
them aside to attempt to establish
what the world will not tolerate"

Wealth is a goal for many. Just
what constitutes wealth, however, is
. question. What may seem wealth
to one may be far from ii to another.
To n palaces. yachts, private cars
may be necessary. Another man may
feel rich when he owns a cottage and
has enough to eat.
Too, many imagine that possession
OF wealth insures happiness. Yet 1t
alone cannot give happiness, which
must come from within the heart. To
be happy. there must be sincere love,
true friendship. generosity that is
not mere money giving, and other
worthy traits of character. To be
happy a nan must have self respect.
Perfect happiness is not in this life,
but honesty and kindness Of heart
may go far toward making it.
Prosperity is a greater test of char
acter than is poverty. Much of the
rich mans happiness depends on how
he uses his wealth. Some are neye
satisfied. When a share of wealth is
obtained, it only begets a desire for
more. A man has not more good
from riches than he makes good use
of. A man may have riches of heart
that bring more happiness than any
amount Of mere money. Wealth is
not his who gets it, but his who en-
joys IT," Contentment with what one
may have is greater wealth than the
greediest seeker for dollars IAN en-
joy.-Milwaukee Journal.
