I N all agea men and women have be moaned the passing of time and re garded youth as the only season of ''happiness. ' Foots and authors have expreased thla Idea In words, and painters snd sculp tors have embodied It In works of art so often that to question It seems al most a confession of utter lack of Ideal lty. - ' Tat not only do I question It: I open ly refute the aasertlon of ages and of my superiors-in intellect mat mere la "no time like youth." and that during a brief score and a half of yeara are the best of life's happiness and Its keenest enjoyment to be found. i recall- a day In early youth when I looked out .on a-colorless prospect and rebuked fate for delaying enjoyment. 'There are. only a few more yeara left for me to enjoy pleasure and amuse ment," I said. "After they pass there will be nothing but duty snd ambition and usefulness but the power to enjoy the good thlnga of Ufa will have gone with youth. Do not cheat me, O Fate, of my little share, while I am able to grasp It." And than I shaped the melanoholy thought In veree and sent It out to da press other lives and other hearts. . ' ' It was something about the cruelty of fate which aent joys too late, and those final words were used aa a requiem over the graves of hope and happiness. ; . ' That was long ago. and I have" lived to learn that nothing comas too late. unless we choose to believe that .all happiness lies within, a circumscribed period of years. It is ths mind of man, not the irony of dastlny, which makes delayed desires disappointing. Keep the emotions alive with sym pathy, keep the ambitione alive with hope, keep the activities alive with pur poae, and the seemingly close bound aries of youth recede aa we Journey on ward; and, lol before we reach the bor der we are faoe to face with the other shore, where- Ufa begins over again under new and higher conditions new and higher conditional If we sought for them here, for only as we have builded by our desires and thoughts and efforts in this graded school of earth-life will we be able to find better surroundings on the other eld - Immortality must be earned. Heav ens must be built while on earth- Not by the mumbling of formulas and sd herenee to-traditional creeds, not by long prayers for God to do our work for us. but1 by our eontlnual application of ths Ood-glven qualltlee which He within us love. will. self-controL helpfulness Happiness Thess are the qualities which produce heavens on earth and la the realms be yond. - .They do not depend upon youth for their vitality, but youth depanda upon them. While thaylast, youth lasts. Every day I hear men and women of middle age sighing for ths lost illusions of youth. As ths embroidered work of art is more beautiful than the stamped pat tern, so are the realities of mature life more beautiful than the lllualona of youth, if we .have used care in the stitching.- Even If ws have marred the design, we have the added experience which youth lacks, and we are pre pared to do better work on the next pattern given by the Oreat Artist. Too late! - There is no 'such thing aa any knowledge or success or happiness com ing too late. There la no such thing as time, save In our own Imagination. - It la all eternity. 'It la a etrols with out beginning or end. ' We have always lived, and will al ways -live. , There Is no need of letting your body, your heart or your mind wither away because -e few years have gone by and the tradtunn of men tells you that youth haa passes'. ' ' , - Keep expectant, keep hopeful, keep sympathetic and ambitious, and be oc cupied. The best of lire is before you whether here or herearter does not mat ter, eo long as you lose no hour of hap piness and usefulness by mistaken ideas gained from mistaken traditions.

NOW thai ths winter season is fair ly on and the wild whirl of Chriatmaa holiday - featlvltlea . looms close at- hand, the problem of evening frocks is absorbing much feminine attention and the dressmakers' workrooms are-plied high with delicate silk moussellnes, chiffons, gauses, laces, nets, and with velvets and satins, all delicate in color.

The variety in such materials Is posi tively bewildering, and though on every elde there Is temptation to extravaganoe, the planning of an evening frock which will be Inexpensive and practical as well as attractive is this, season a simpler matter than usual.
