question if many truly happy 1t is too
cheap method of getting happiness. One rule to
assure happiness is that do something worth

Another truth is that mind feeling on

to be successfully happy. A modest cottage
where love and neatness and children grow up IN
an atmosphere of confidence is more liable to ex-

You cannot be happy if you look down or up
the road of life, and there s nothing to hope for
in the distance A hope may be based on some
thing unseen. Then grows faith, another element
of happiness.
Now: Our Father has given everyone of us
some fine work to do. He has placed here many
things to love, and He has set before us hope,
for this life does not end ALL Work, love and
hope are ingredients in true happiness. The
guarantee of it is in the fact that our Elder
Brother lived here, and worked and loved ard

INGALLS,, TRIRUTE TO CESS
Beautiful Word Painting Of Kansas
Statesman That Is Recognized
as Classic

Lying in the sunshine among the
buttercups and dandelions of May,
scarcely higher in intelligence than the
minute tenants of that mimic wilder
ness, our earliest recollections are of
grass; and when the fitfuI fever is
ended and the foolish wrangle of the
market and forum is closed, grass
heals over the scar which our descent
into the bosom of the earth has made,
and the carpet of the infant becomes
the. blanket of the dead. Grass is the
forgiveness of Nature-her constant
benedictiOn. Fields trampled with
battle, saturated with blood, torn with
the ruts of cannon. grow green again
with grass. and carnage is forgotten.
Streets abandoned by traffic become
grass-grown like rural lanes and are
obliterated. Forests decay. harvests
perish, flowers vanish, but grass is i'm
mortal. Beleaguered by the sullen
, hosts of winter, it withdraws into the
impregnable fortress of its subter-
ranean vitality and energies upon the
first solicitation of spring. Sown by
the winds. by the wandering birds,
prOpagated by the subtle agriculture
of the elements which are its minis
tiers and servants, it sOftens the rude
outline of the world. 1t bears no bla-
ZOnry of bloom to charm the senses
with fragrance or splendOr. but its
homely hue is more enhancing than the
lily or the rose. 1t yields no fruit
in earth or air. and yet should it's har-
vest fail for a single year, famine
would depGpulatc the wOrld.-Trom a

Ribbon Fish's Oddities.

THE ribbon fishes" said John T.
Nichols. head of the department of re-
cent fishes at the Museum of Natural
History, according to the New York
Times, "are perhaps the least known
of the larger marine species. They
are elOngate, flattened from side to
side with a manelike fin on the back.
Specimens are 10 to 20 feet long, be-
ing from 10 TO ID inches deep, and
about an inch or two broad at their
thickest part. They have big eyes
and small mouths"
Very few specimens ever come to
light and these are usually washed up
on some shore or are found floating
at the surface in a dead or dying con-
ditiOn. The larger ones are known to
grow TO be 20 feet or so in length and
very likely attain a considerably
greater size, but this is a matter OF
pure conjecture. Young individuals
of some of the species but a few
inches long are not rarely met with
near the surface.
