I ANY, many centuries ngo somo- ono learned that It Is more blessed to glvo than to re ceive It is credited as a divine thought, and It is such, because it is tho truth nnd nil truth Is divine. The life1 of service la nobler nnd happier than tho life of Bolfishness; thore is abundant proof everywhere and In many Uvea of tho fact. Wo pass this way but onco nnd vrlrjle wo all renllzo as much. When a man thinks upon that subject tho idea that often comes uppermost is tho- question as to what Rood he bus done. A man Is not concerned with what money ho has mndo or what ho has gained in tho way of personal prestige nnd power. Tho real points Is has tho world been mndo a little brighter or better be causo ho has lived? Has Jie given valuo received or has ho subtracted from tho world's wcnlth of happi ness and comfort? Thbro Is implanted In every hu man heart that divine spark, a se cret dCBlro to do something worthy. Different people have different Ideas of service. It doponds on ono's point of view and opportunities. Dut ! ovory man knows In Jils heart that tho, things truly worth while- aro not solfish, but something that Is dono for others. Tho man who gets tho most out of llfo and the man who has'1 (ho most to bo grateful for! is not the man who has taken most but tho man who has given most. ' "For raiment and for dally bread, For shelter from tho rnln nnd shine For length of days and hardlhcad, Small gratlt'udo Is mlno. j No genius can nfford to neg- lect tho patient labors of tho world'o greatest thinkers nnd strike out for hlhisolf. Cardi nal Gibbons, TIIK LOGGER LOVERS. T "Pino knot for me," the logger said, "I'll soon return to yow. Tho train I tnko at Marshflold pulls out of town nt two." She saw him board tho waiting train. His faco was all a-benin. They took his trunk nnd threw it In, and tho engine got up steam. He did not have so fir to go, but she could not restrain a wall; Sho hoped there wcro no carters ( thcro thatvtood hemlock In in Jail. When all spruced her beau returned, n popular man of mark, She kissed him thrice and at each kiss her little dogwood bark. Anon. 4 Blessings may como In (lis- j gulso. Dut trouble never both- j crs about putting on a mask, j Thai Which Lives HAT In man which does not perlsn is ins personal uum- ence. Since wo nro creatures of environment nnd heredity, if you wisely Bhnpo tho environment of thoso about you and transmit that which is good to your and tholr prosperity, you will live. And the waves of time shall dash Jmpotontly ngninst generations henco In ton thousand or ton times ten thousand de scondnnts of yourself and of thoso whoso lives your llfo beno ficlally influenced. And you cannot buy life with gold nor with great works that pay dividends in dollars, but with service and self, coined into deeds of unselfishness. LofcVre.
