IV AFTKIt IAY8
(By Frank I Stanton.)
There ia no thoiiRht of sad regret for yet'
Only sweet thankfulness that Love has known
For one brief hour the life that seemed his own.
Even as the lilies feel the fresh'ning dew
That soon Is kissed away and leaves no trace,
But lovelier light upon the lily's face.
No thought of sorrow for what might have been:
Content with that which was. Love goes his way
In darkness now, but glad for, one rweet day
He gave the wealth of all the world to win!
The wealth of Love great gift, beyond recall:
Withholding nothing; glad that he gave all.

NEW YORK IS ABUSED
- (By Dr. William E. Barton)
PEOPLE try hard to be charitable to the memory of those
who commit suicide. No longer are they buried at the
cross-road with a stake driven through the heart and de
prived of the rites of Christian burial or hope of the life ever
lasting. Nowadays we try to prove that they were insane, or
that the unfortunate event was the result of an accident.
This is all very well for the memory of the dead, and often
more than he deserves; how about the living? They are left
with a burden and a disgrace and a shock from which they will
not recover for years. . '
If you must commit suicide, jump off the deck of an ocean
steamer in the presence of witnesses, and leave behind you
plainly written statement that will prevent other persons from
being suspected, of your murder or blamed unjustly for driving
vou to your grave. Do not subject your friends to the humilia-
' tion of the inquest or the expense and trouble of the funeral anr
the cleaning up of the muss made by your . experiment with
" I deadly weapojis or poison. - i.
But what a cowardly thing it is! What a dishonest thing!
In times following wars, there is always a readjustment of
values, and an increased number of business embarrassments, j
Thai is a time when a good many men of no very strong convic
1 1 tions begin to wonder whether life is worth living, and whether
tney would not De ueiier on ueau man nviug. out, uiju is not
the whole problem. There are times on the battlefield when a
man may better die a hero than live a coward. There are times
when it is better to live, an inconspicuous hero, struggling .on
with the load and doing one's duty faithfully, than to die a
toward. - , j- ;
Life is a discipline, and it is worth living, even in the hours
when it seems least enjoyable. Be brave enough to. live. JThat
takes some courage sometimes. " But it is worth while.
NEW YORK cjty has a daylight saving ordinance and until
very recently there was a state-wide daylight saving law
in New York despite the fact the national law on the sub
ject had been repealed. Now the legislature has repealed the
law insofar as it applies in that state outside the big city. Com
plaining of the confusion resulting from the two standards of
time Gotham papers say the legislature has "subordinated the
health and well being of half the population of the state." It'
does not occur to those newspapers that the city could very
easily correct the trouble by adopting standard time. They are
all out of step but Jim. .

it saved them time and trouble to
have their bill agree with menu
prices and their change correct. For
instance:
In one of the best hoterts. a tanned
bos'n called for the bill for himself
and three companions.
"No," he declared, ''it's too much."
as the waiter laid down a bit of paper
with a column of figures on it.
"How do you know its too much,
you haven't looked fit It yet?"' one of
his Irien i remonstrated. " '
"Its always too much the first
time," the bos'un replied without moving-
his right hand from the pile of
Peruvian currency he had placed on
the table. "I've been in France and
I know." A long argument ensued In
English by the sailor and Spanish by
the waiter. Finally the latter retired
with a gesture of despair and a capi
tain took his place. He. too, iiit aft
er prolonged argument and many
gestures.
"He's gone to call the cops,". ven
tured one of the guests. . ' '
"No he won't affirmed the hos'un.
"They know they've boosted th,s bill
and they don't dare." - '
The head waiter came, tried his ten
words of English and also beat a re
treat, to be replaced by the manager
of the hotel.
"Look here," said the bos'un after
ascertaining that the manager under
stood him, more or less. "That waiter
tried to gyp us. He said we owed 12
of these cigarette papers (pointing-to
a Peruvian sol, worth about 45 cents.)
I figured it ugr from the menu and we
only owe eight. How about it?" V
The manager glanced at the hill and
then at the bos'un. "All right," he
aid and bowed the four out. "T
, "What did 4 tell you?" were the Inst
words of the -bos un as he reached the
street. "I saved each of you.guys four
