It is wicked for any of us to harbor thoughts which are against our own well being, thoughts which give rise to doubts and fears which fret and which in- capacitate us. There is no such thing as right living without right thinking. To feel that you are dull, or incapable, or unloved or out of favor, or misun- derstood is to harbor an enemy which should be. expelled.

Thomas Lawson may have already come to the conclusion that it is easy to talk but it is a different thing when it comes to proying what you are talking about. The plan of the allies to put the Turks out of business might even ap- peal to the central powers were they not friends of theirs and renderinz them important assistance. If it is so that General Falkenhayn is in Greece on a special mission, it looks as ‘if Mackensen had been able to send‘help to King Constantine quicker than he had expected. Now that the contract for shells for the navy department has been award- ed to an English firm. it is entirely possible that the next order for Amer- ican flags will be placed in Europe. The decision of this government to “Discontent that casts a shadow gray on all the brightness of a commen day.” With the foe so clearly outlined it should not be hard to, in a measure, disconcert him. Inconvenience of every character breeds discontent if we only let it. The discontent which inspires us to rise to more satisfac- tory conditions—the discontent which arouses us to the highest aspiratton is a blessing, for it sets hope ablaze and urges us n to be worthy of the heir- ship which is ours by birth. The dis. content which casts gray shadows and befogs hope and invites despair is the evidence of our own lack of self-reli- ance and our infirmity of will. Some one has said the best remedy for this sort of discontent is to count our mer- cies—to turn our minds and our faces to the good, and to drive away the gloom of thoughtlessness and the in- ertia which dull the brightness of life. We must all keep a sha lookout upon the little cares WHICH fret us There is no reason why they should harrass us when we have the power to call a halt; but they do because we are not conscious of their lack of value or our ‘own_power to limit their action upon us. It is natural to fret, you say; and it is weakness to increase the habit instead of reducing it to the least of its power of annoyance. You may control your thoughts, and if you do not you are not the master of your mind. ‘It is as easy to think of one’s blessings as one’s fears, and a great deal more sensible. Do you not like the song of the poet who wrote: The charge the prophet made against a certain people was in respect to their untroubled calm.- “Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath set- tled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel” The figure refers to the ancient practise of pouring a liquid from one vessel to another, and thence to another and another, leaving behind at each suc- cessive 'pouring some of the dregs of the sediment until at length the liquid was perfectly pure and clear. How many a man has, as it were, “settled upon his lees!” 'He does not wish to be disturbed. He is perfectly content to retain all his moral sedi- ment. What he really needs is the shock of change, of adventure, of sac- rifice that may rid him of some unde- sirable things and gain for him some that are high and true. “Changes,” said the well-beloved Scotchman, Tan Maclaren, the surest means for b quickening character.” If that be true. one should not be so afraid of them. A very superficial philosophy lies be- hind the adage “Happy the people that has no history.” People:that have no history have no real life, for life is only another name for experience. Ex- perience is to be sought and not sloth- fully evaded. | Whether we will or no, we mortals dre constantly summoned to new de- partures. Sheltered individuals there are who seem exceptions to the rule. but they will remain exceptions. And heard, which appears in his speech against the grant of $25,000 to the widow of President Harrison, April, 1841, “This new page opened in the book of our public expenditures. and this new departure taken, which leads into the bottomless gulf of civil pen- sions and family gratuities.” John Pierpont, (1785-1866) has the credit of thus summarizing the power of the ballot, often quoted, yet the origin _ of which is not generally known: A weapon that comes down as still As snowflakes fall, upon the sod; But executes a freeman’s will As lightning does the will of God.
