breakfast as Yankee idiosyncrasy New Eng

Now the Paris savants who are investigating
chairs to determine their proper relation tc
rosture have decided that the rocking chair is
tie best of the lot; that it most perfectly under
ali conditions supports the human body proper
ly A lot of common sense came out OF old New
England and the rocking chair, if not originated
there, was adopted there as the best piece or
chair furniture available. In fact, it was char
acteristic of the Yankee to believe that what
worked we'll in practice and delivered both util-
1ty and comfort was philosophically sound It
seems in this instance the Yankee was right.

MONEY AND HAPPINESS.

B. C. Forbes: The story is told OF
a father who, in saying good-Dye
to his only son who was leaving the
parental roof to make his way in the
world, gave him this parting advice:

YOU can" Eyes, father replied
Sam, as he crossed toward the door.

eyes, father" replied the dutiiul son.
Before he had closed the door, ms
father again called him back and SAID: :
But, Sam, my boy, make the money.
The fathers advice would really have
been better if he had let the son go
with the second admonition.
He is a wise man who seeks by
every legitimate means to make all
the money he can honestly, for mon
ey can do SO many worthwhile things
in this world, not merely for one
self but for others. But he is an I'M
mitigated fool who imagines for mo-
ment that it is more important to
make the money" than to make 1t
honestly One of the advantages OF
possessing money is that it facilitates
the maintenance Of ones independence
of action and mental attitude. The
man head -over-heels in debt is more
slave than independent He cannot
look Others straight in the eye and
carry his head at self-respecting
height. Without a reasonable sense
of independence there cannot be ex-
perienced the most satisfying brand OF
happiness.
My experience and observation
cause me to affirm that money IS
worth toiling for, sweating for, study
ing for. planning for, that it is worth
self discipline, self-denial, even self.
sacrifice, especially during the first
half of three-fourths of ones life; but
that money is not worth lying for,
cheating for, swindling for in any way
whatsoever. Even million dollars,
of it would not be worth one iota OF
ones self-respect. not worth the soil
ing or sacrificing of ones conscience
