A man came smiling down the street And every one that he would meet Unconsciously and happily gave echo to his smile; And softly as he walked along;. He hummed a strain of some old song A melody that showed the mood which held him all the while. With hat uptilted as to brim He saw the world look back at him, He understood the world was good because his heart was glad, And so he hummed the lively strain Of that old rollicking refrain That held as much of merriment as ever 'music had. And folks along the crowded way Shared in his smile and song that day, And singing, too, and smiling, too, they went about their toil; Of where he went or whence he came None knew; perhaps none knew his name , But he was one who thought the day was far too good to spoil. i The old bookkeeper and the clerk i The husky teamster at his worrk, The banker and the merchant and the other folks about Went humming something; soft and low And smiling lnthe .sunny'glow That made a mack.of.shadows that were dancing In and out. Ho, bless the man, .that, hdd .the smile And hummed his jolly song the while! ' 'i He did not know, tie''did' -not care, about the joy he made, But; like a' ripple in a lake His song set happiness awake, His smile smoothed out the wrinkles where the hand of care was laid. WANDERLUST. There's the lure of the foaming rapids, There's the voice of the roaring falls, And the wind? that blow And the streams that flow - And the wild, free life that calls. Oh! the camp on the lonely prairie, In the cool of the summer night, And the hills afrr Where the lone trails are Bathed In the starry light. Oh! the toss of the sloop in the tradewlnd With the round tropic moon on high Or loaf all day Where the monkeys, play 'Neaththe cloudless southern sky. Oh! the clink of the flashing racquets! Oh! the howl of the husky pack! And the lonely mush Through the northland's rush, As you follow the frozen track. There's the plain and the stream and the mountain; Each calls with a voice of It's own. There's the saddle's grip And the paddle's dip, And the gleam of the camp fire lone. Then away from the crowded city! With its endless din and strife, To the woodland pool And the quiet cool And the charm of the wanderer's life! C. M. Hubbard. Pedestrian Weston has discovered' that walking backward down hill is a sure way to avoid fatigue. What we would like I? a tip on how to' avoid fatigue while trying to get up hill. Speaking of the influence of. mind over matter: When a man sits down to read after supper It is with the hope that the door bell 'won't ring, and his wife .takes her rocker with the hope that It will. One of the latest pamphlets Issu ed by the department of agriculture Is on "The Uses of Sawdust," The government is apparently determin ed to encourage the breakfast food Industry In every way possible. Speakings of "foolish questions." the, following from the Omula Wurld-Herald m:y as well be listed as No J39.97G: "What Is a. voting ina?hine for, anvway?" We thought eveiybody knew It is being mil :n sprinkling the streets. If you are bound to put off some thing until tomorrow, put off being foolish. It Is safe to set a man down as being fussy If he carries his change in a little purse. '' . f A small boy's Idea of liberty isjto eat the cake and then ask his moth er If he may have it.

BT1HE CHEERING-UP BUSINESS is. one of the most profitable enter- other reason, I prises one can engage in, so far ns paying one's way In life is con- corned. To bo sure, those who .always appear cheerful and happy are never supposed to have troubles of ther own and to them Is de- nled the gift of sympathy, because It Is taken for. granted they do not need it, but they have their corapensatons, and those who cheer others need have little fear for themselves. Belhg cheerful may be made as much a habit of the mind as being gloomy. The realization of this Is not so general as It should be, but in trying to keep the song going in the lives of others, the melody of It gets Into one's own, and brings the underslanaing mat wniio the strain may sometimes change to a minor key, it will suroly blend again Into joyous BJor tones. Part of the knowledge ione gets by going Into the cheerlng-up business is that the pain which is born of sorrow, tho distress which arises from ffftnible, the stings of irritation, will suroly pass away. "Never 'a shadow et qh one side of the hearth without an angel on the. other." Thertruth ot this is understood clearly by thoso who cling persistently to the cheerful view of things and endeavor to bring it before the eyes of others. Many of tho cheer-up ones. are unconscious that they are engaged In the business. They are born to face life with a cheery countenance, and nro simply fulfilling their destiny without requiring premeditation to govern their actions. TlFo one who is born with a cheerful spirit is a lucky mortal, but cheer fulness' in common with most attributes of tho mind, may be acquired If It is noiirlshed by thought and practico. Those who havo acquired cheer fulness by a vigorous course of solf-tralnlng know Us full value. Tho con trast between the Bhndowed days and tho days ruled by a bright spirit loaves no question as to which is tho better, and the enthusiasm thus nwakoned creates a desire to sow bonoflts upon tho world by being hap py. Heart cheer grows and grows as. fast as It Is given away, and tho sourco from which It springs Is seemingly Inexhaustible. To be successful In tho cheoring-up business one must go Into it without thought of profit or roward. If theso are not looked for one is never disappointed, and under any circumstances generosity means to glvo, without expecting to 'recolvo in return. If roward comes, as it is almost certain to come In somo fqijnja'r o.ther. It brings happiness. of pleasant fcurju-lse; or tho satls-t faction that Is won by doing a good turn for others.

She pang with great feeling and there were tears in many eyes when she finished. "Comir' Thru tho Rye" and "Ben Bolt" were both received with round after round of applause. Miss Lucy Sherwood Horton, ac companist delighted her friends by her excellent work at the piano. Her rendition of "Rhapsodle No. 12," Liszt, displayed a mastery of tech nique and an intelligent appreciation of the composer that was rare and beautiful. The Chamlnade chorus under the masterful direction of Mrs. Wm. Hprsfall, was a rare delight to lovers of good music, and the audience dis played Its appreciation by numer ous encores. The stage was beautifully decorat ed and with the full chorus present ed a very pretty picture and one that made every member of the au dience proud of their city and its singers. All in all It was a brilliant occa sion.
