THE EASY CHAIR Who said "comparisons are odius.” I say they are the fabric from which the pattern of life is cut. For instance, compared to a woman who had neither money nor taste, I mipht look like a well dressed woman, but compared to a woman with plenty of what it takes to dress well, I probably look like something the cat brought in on one of the days when she wasn’t being very particular. To one whose thought is paralyzed when he picks up a pen. this may look like an interesting bit of writing maybe, but to aelever person it may look like a very painful effort that produced nothing. When I was at the front end of life I can remember wondering what anyone hail left to live for who had

attained the ripe old age of thirtyfive. But now that I am,' well, this old, thirty-five seems quite a frisky and even kittenish age. But it always seemed to me to be cold comfort to compare myself with someone worse off than I was. My mother used to say! when she found the crust of my bread tucked snugly under my plate, "My, my, lots of little girls wjould be glad to have that crust.” And how devoutly I wished they did have, not only that crust, but all crusts. I never could see that it made my troubles any lighter for some one else to have worse ones. I’m all for fixing things if possible. “Be still, sad heart and cease repining— Into each life some rain must fall Some days must be sad and dreary.” That may be good poetry, though I doubt it. But it is a damp philosophy of life. Sure some rain must fall but there’s no necessity for sitting out in it. One can usually come in, and | there are always umbrellas. When my sad or otherwise heart is still I will be just plain dead.

Some rain must fall but not every-

Earth is a gypsy in the fall With jewels at her breast. And those are strung, with jade between, On wisps of smoke and mist. The sumac is a ruby red, Topas the sassafras The maple is an opal, The oak an amethyst. Eartha stands tiptoo on every hill, And so that all may see, Gathers her jewels in her hands And flings them wantonly.
