twenty-four numbers on the varied

beautiful young lady suspended only
by her teeth, bicycle acts that seemed

Happiness in Gladness

"Bc glad! When you have said all
there Is TO say about life's sorrow,
disappointment and pain, about the
sclnsmcss and wrong that sweep over
lhc earth like shadows, about the
shorucss of it's days and the certainty
Of It's nights, 1t still remains bessedly
true thut the universe is thrilling with
the song of gladness," says a helpful
writer.
"lc glad for the beauty of the
spngtlmc, the blue Of the skies, the
music of the birds ana the glory Of
the sunsets. Listen to the laughter
Of the little children, answer to the
haudclasp Of friendship, grow warm
IN the loyellght of countless happy
homes aud be sure that somewhere
over and above all IS a great Love that
makes all these things possible"
The secret of happiness lies in your
own attitude toward life.-Orlson

Hanging May baskets seems to be q
purely American custom, which prob.

In New England, particularly. the
May basket is exceedingly popular,
especially IN the rural sections. In
the country, girl hangs a May basket
on the door OF the house in which
her beau lives. Then she rings the
