Work and Joy.

They are inseparable. There are
a great many people whose idea of
happiness is no better than that Of
tie antebellum darkey who said that
in de sweet by-and-by every day
will be Sunday" his conception
of Heaven being a place and condi-
ton in which work would be entire
ly eliminated. For the ignorant,
overworkcd old slave this idea may
have been beautiful, but such de-
sire on the part Of an intelligent be-
ing is degrading. Permanent inac-
tion Is not rest nor life nor happi-
ness-it is torpor, blindness, death.
The purest Joy that human soul
may know lies not in inactivity, but
in the harmonius activity and cor
respondence of all the faculties
which increases not only ones pow
er, but his pleasures as well.-From
