Cheer Up If people would devote themselves a little more to philosophy and a little less to the pursuit of wealth'and worldly pleasure, we should have more happiness in the world, longer lives in which to enjoy it and fewer suicides. It has seemed of late that almost every trivial misfortune is occasion for self-destruction. Any kind ot a > a rung i ; sufficient,provoca­ tion foi murder. We worry life awa) over mishaps which have no necessary influence upon our wel faie. A hail storm sweeps across li)C wheat fields of the Middle West, and the next morning despondent turners are found hanging around almost every place in trees and hams. A gay young wife tires of the dullness of her husband’s com­ panionship and elopes with a livelier inan, wnereupon two souls must be »ent unj repared to Heaven. A thousand and one ills that flesh is h ir to are so magnified when viewed through the small glass ol narrow eo vision that it seems better to fly to ills we know not of than to bear those we have. "Theie is nothing happens to any person but what was in his power to go through with,” wrote Marcus Aurelius over 1700 years ago. and it moderns would read more of his wise sayings they would place a more accurate estimate upon rhe im parlance of events of life. “How very near us stand the two great gulls of time, the past and tilt future, in which all things disappear. Now is not that man a blockhead who lets those momentary things make him proud, or uneasy, or sor rowful, as though they could trouble 1 iin for long?” And again, “If anything external vexes you, take notice that it is not the thing which disturbs you but your notion about It, which notice you may dismiss whenever you please.—Oregonian.
