How to be Happy

Happiness requires many things. She is a fickle goddess who is always hungry for something. It is not necessarily wealth that she wants, for the wealthy are notoriously unhappy. Nor beauty for the greatest beauty grows out of sorrow. Nor health alone, for the strong physique is often dis contented.
 If you cant put your finger on the formula for being happy, try to re- move tn eCauses of unhappiness, One, and only one thing-perhaps a very little thing-will make you unhappy will make you unhappy.
 An uncomfortable shoe, for instance.

81 Irish People.

L0ndon-L0rd Curzon, the secretary
for foreign affairs, speaking in the
House Of Lords on the Irish negotia-
ti0ns said the government had offered
all that could be given without com.
promising the safety OF the realm, the
sovereignty OF the crown and the digni-
ty OF the empire.
The British government declared
Premier Lloyd George, in making its
settlement proposals to Ireland, had
decided on putting the whole OF its
terms into the letter to Eamonn De
Valera without keeping anything back,
and the sequel had proved, he said,
that it was right in adopting that
course.
Terms, Limit 81 Concessions.
He had heard no suggestions from
any part of the world except Ireland,
he remarked, that the proposals had
not gone to the limit OF possible con-
cession.
Il want to make it clear" continued
the prime minister, that the govern
ment did not put forth haggling terms.
but put forward everything they pos
sibly could concede to purchase peace
and the good will Of the Irish people.
In Ireland itself, 90 far as I can see,
the doubt 10 not 90 much a. to the
terms, but as to whether the govern
ment really means them.
THAT is . question Of working out
the terms-of calculation and elabora-
ton, and not changing of the terms.
The outline cannot be altered, nor the
basis changed"

tingenc.es, however unpleasant they
may be.

The UNIVERSITY
OF HUMANITY
Diplomas Awarded Men and
Women Wh0 Qualify in This
Unique Institution.

The four training colleges in The
United States, of which two are in Chi.
cago and two in New York City, con-
Quoted by The Salvation Army, special
ICES in the science of art. Of under
standing and handling people.
Two of these in each city are devoted
to the instruction Of women.
In addition to the vast fund of gen.
eral experience which the workers in
the, Salvation Army have acquired
through forty years apprenticeship
at serving men and women in every
possible phase and emergency of crime,
sorrow and misfortune, it adds to its
marvellous efficiency in handing down
these traditions by giving to every
man and woman who consecrates his
and her life to this work, university
course of ten months intensive study.
Besides the evangelical side Of this
instruction, which prepares the stu
dent to. conduct all kinds of meetings.
they also must learn much Of. the train
ing that pioneer missionaries need to
maintain themselves in a variety OF
surroundings, establish home, meet
ing place or corps from which their
activities will radiate and around
which they will draw for all kinds Of
spiritual and temporal relief, the peo-
pie Of their community.
Officers who receive commission in
the Salvation Army must be skilled in
saving men just as the officers OF our
military armies, of the world are
trained in destroying men. Their
training for life of men-saying is just
as complex and diversified. Indeed
the mems training colleges of the Sal
walton Army have been called its West
Point
Fully as comprehensive is the in
struction given to the young women
who register for this work. They must
learn domestic science, sewing, nurs-
ing, as well as the religious side. for
there is no demand made upon officers
in this great army that is not met by
them in the intelligent capable manner
of the expert
After the ten months in the college
has been completed the young officer
must serve years probationary train
ing under some. elder officer. During
that period he has regular monthly
examinations which he must pass ac-
cording to a required standard before
he is ordained for service and com
missioned and sent forth to establish
his own field.
A days program in Salvation
Army College is fully as rigorous and
exacting as that of any military insti
tuition.

Collecting TURTLES.

'.T-uffles?s said the boy. "Why !
They're sort Of mushroom that don't
come up" Accurate enough. except
ing that trutiles are not mushrooms.
However, they are fungi (and are
cousins TO the mushroom) and they
taste and look (inside) good deal
like mushrooms. The best truffies in
the world grow in France. Other spe-
cies grow In Italy and Spain and even
in England.
TrufIies grow underground, much
like potatoes. except that they grow
individ Aliy and not on the roots of
a plant. In appearance they are glo-
bose. bright brown and black, and are
covered with polygonal warts. not so
yer. unlike the eyes of a potato.
Their flesh is blackish gray, scanned
with white veins. They smell mighty
good when they are ripe-something
like crushed strawberries. Later the
smell grows stronger, but it doesn't
recall the perfume of the STRAWBERRIES
then-far from it.
