This Ls a world o beauty, not
ho much to them who have means
to pluck and wear its roses n.s to
them who have souls Kunsitizod
to the sweet odors. With love of
the beautiful in mankind and in
nature no one enn be poor; with
out none can bo rich. Happiness
is not carried in tho pocket, but
in the heart. Tho millionaire may
make his thousand acre park in
tho rich valley and by n fiction of
the law cull il his own, 'nit it all
is the front yard of tho poorest
sijiiatter in the rudest cabin on
the rugged hillside. He who has
paid for it owns it? Noi It is
most truly possessed by him who
most enjoys it. What can a beau
tiful park mean to one whose
Heart is Hiuottiered in a money
biii: J And to 0110 who loves the
trees, tlie brooks, the hills. tho shy
what matters it who holds the
title! Why, Adam nnd Kvo nov.
or had a deed to Eden! Descun
dents of theirs today hold deeds,
but not possession. It was not
tho land itself which wius taken
away, but tho power to enjoy it.
What we lovo is ours, and there
all real possession ends. The
Kerns in tho tine lady's hair and
at her throat sparkle not for her
eye.s, but for the eyes of. others.
She owns only some costly atones
never tho priceless limit that
dances in them. This precious
treasure is only for them who
love it, and for them it is unalter
ed broadcast at their feet in
countless myriads of frost Hakes
on the brown Winter earth and
in the morning dewdrops in the
.Summer gntss. Wo can really
possess nothing that wo sacrifice
to our own purposes. Il is only
to the one who is poor that
wealth steadily glow like a
bright star in the night. Tho law
of recompense always is in
force. It is only when darkness
shrouds our world that wo can
see tho lights of a million others.
Did wo not learn 111 boyhood
that tho bubble is brilliant only
until wo grasp itf What wo love
become a part of our very selves.
If our loves bo greed and lust,
then these vile serpents of vice
will creep into the heart and
make it their abode. Hut to Iho
soul whoso loves are pure all in
tho world that is good and sweet
flies straight and swift as hom
ing doves. Yes, what wo lovo is
ours, and in the same degree as
we love, wo own. All (hat is
good in the world wo may own
if we will. hx.

well attended as was the initial
one. The Haehelor Club bnlls

lovers of dancing with u great
