Are we happier, more moral, lived, or in better health? Alas! no, Let us build to ourselves grand houses, with stout walls, let us make to our double plated windows and strong doors; selves summer in the dead of winter, and cool retreats from the failures, disappointments, heat of summer—but sins, sorrows, wasting diseases and ghastly death will enter and abide with us still. We may build against the wild elements, shut out the burn ing sun, the biting winter wind; but we cannot build against the real ills of life that are part of our nature. Where are the walls that can shield us from ingratitude chilled affection, selfishness, avarice, meanness, and the thou sand ills that flesh is eternally heir to? A good woman went to the mansion of a rich man with the petition of a poor widow dying of cancer, who asked relief for her hungry and helpless children She waited in rooms where art had exhausted its last resource in all that was beautiful Huge mirrors extending from floor to ceiling seemed to double} the wealth of palatial decorations. The ceilings were gems of frescoed excellence; the walls heJd fortunes in the form of pic tures on every panel; marble to revive the almost represented in every recess. The rugs, & poor laborer’s life in every square foot And while she waited she heard a moan from the sick foom within, so deep and agonizing that it seemed to come from the very grave. She had thought she had left with the poor widow all the misery of which life is capable. That moan taught her her error. Death, the great democrat, knows no distinction We all continue struggling fiercely for these things, as if their possession could lift us above all suffering and make dis- ease and death our friends in the way we want them. And if ft is not worldly possessions that own us, it is some fevered ambition worse than bodily sickness And yet all the real estate a king may possess, ests of Rembrandt's depths of lighted gloom, and lofty mountains, does not hold as much of the human heart a8 one little grave.
