.SajjAt Seeing Happiness Happiness is the gift of seeing the good things of life in such high relief that the rest is unimportant. When a man with an air as if it were natural to him to give orders is found, it isn't long before the xneek pul him in a position to do it. Approve not of him who commends everything you say. Feuds arise from exaggerated personal pride and generally among people who have not a great deal to be proud of. If you have savage opinions, people will be hypocritical to you to keep on good terms. When a boy gets up to his ears in love he is more careful about washing them. Usinq Abilities The art of being able to make good use of modem abilities wins esteem, and confers more reputation than real merit. If you encounter a man who knows several secrets of his friends and doesn't tell them, that's the man to tie up to. There is nothing thrilling about contentment; nothing dangerous, either. What men say when they are angry is either the blazing truth or very unreliable. The well-bred man keep? his beliefs out of his conversation.

Old Wooderi Rocker T'HERE it stands in the cor- * ner with its back to the wall. The old wooden rocker so stately and tall, With naught to disturb it but the duster or broom. For no one now uses the back parlor room. Oh, how well I remember, in days long gone by. When we stood by the rocker, my sister and I, And we listened to the stories that our grandma would tell By that old wooden rocker we all loved so well.

CHAPTER X—Continued —l7— She lifted her hand with the letter. “Jeb has not, sister, quit his claim on you,** Bee's handwriting assured. That ts not J. E. Braddon. He does not speak about you much; but he does a lot of listening, when you're mentioned. . . . He's giving you time to get yourself straightened out." Suppose she married Cathai O'Mara? What did it mean that, as she lay In the late afternoon shadow, she so much as played with the fancy? (“And now my times with you are spent; there's nothing of you left for me In all the future. We'll be In the world, both of us, but I may never again speak to you or see your face.”) Agnes atlrred. and twisted a little. She wanted to be in the world with Cathai O'Mara. They traveled slowly through Provence, Into northern Italy in the au tumn, on to Interlaken below the Jungfrau, and reached Paris, at last, in November; and there they were when the crash came, and the cases and the countlng : houses alike—the Case de la Paix and the American branch banks on the Place de la Concorde and Boulevard Hausmann—became places of panic. To the crowded hotels of the Rue de Rivoli and about the Etolle the cables carried to Americans only messages of catastrophe. '•Millionaires'’ overnight became penniless, or worse. Little slips of paper told them: "All you had ia gone; and you owe more." A few words on a cablegram slip—less than a score of syllables, sometimes—and a man who last week strutted and boasted that he was worth six millions shut himself alone In his tenroom suite at the hotel and shot himself. What had changed? What curse caused this Incredible calamity that spared no one? The Gleneiths. mother and daughter, moved amoug groups utterly confused. Beatrice had a cable from her husband In Chicago: "All right enough with us. Don’t worry." She was not dependant, as many about her were, upon monthly remittances from home, or upon renewals of a letter of credit. Bob had provided generously In advance. Some wives, in her situation, were however cashing their letters of credit and cabling the proceeds home. So astonishingly had the situation reversed itself! Then the second big "drop” came. It bad come much closer to the Gleneiths than merely to people they knew; but the two of the family in Paris had not yet received a letter written that day. They had only Bob's sec ond cable to his wife: "Some temporary losses of course, but nothing serious; no necessity whatever to alter any of your plans." Bee's letter arrived the next week: Six o'clock, Tuesday. Just before 1 go to meet Davie. Well. Agnes—for It's your turn—we got It. Today at noon Coliltt, Ayreforth and Remble admitted Inability to meet obligations. The afternoon papers have it In headlines; also our phony baa been busy. It appears to have surprised many friends. Nobody knows—or tells —how much we're short; but It's a few hundred thousand, not counting what's owed to Father when he threw in a lot of money last week to try to save Davis. Father shouldn't have done It. He's been taking losses on hie owa that would sink anybody else. Why did 1 let Davis In for thia? But 1 never dreamed ho could get la so deep. I didn't know that men could lose more money than they over had It seems they can. Os course I never dgured that It might happen at a time when It would make so much difference to Father. And there ara others besides ourselves to consider. Davis seems to have done hia bit, you see. dear, in making paupers of many trusting people. » Every one to grateful to Jeb fa these days, Agnes—everybody lucky enough to have taken his advice. He's been insisting on the utilities, and especially the Insult properties, you know. iOt course, they're down; but in comparison with other things, they're just Gibraltar. A lot of people are thanking God tonight or J. E. Braddon. I’m going to the train, now. to meet my husband. B. Both boys perfectly fine. Mother. bad mailed It, her slater realtied, on the way to the train; bat what a place to atop a letter—before she met Davfa on tbs day be bad failed completely! Had be come oa that train? And bow was he? Agnes put herself beside Bee on the platform awaiting him for that meeting yet to occur In her mind, thought her sister had accomplished it eight days ago. She could see him stepping from the ear slowly but unwaveringly, with Ups pressed tight and white; with his eyes looking at his wife, who could not help contrasting him on this day of his public failure with Jeb Braddon. whom ail people more than ever praised and admired. Bee would be—Agnes knew that she had been—“good" to Davis that night Never would she have blamed or reproached him; she would have been sorry for him, and shown It But that was what last of all, Davis desired; he could have borne reproach better than pity. Agnes wished she could have been there to prevent Bee’s pitying him; to show him something like —admiration. She did not believe that she could have felt for Mm admiration; but she could have feigned something to satisfy Mm; she knew bow Davis had needed some word of praise that night * Agnes waited for her mother tn finish the letter. *We ought to be home.

CHAPTER XI Bee gave up her home the week before Christmas. “Not before Christmas!" Davis protested to her. , “What would Christmas be to us in the house, under the circumstances F Bee retorted. "And the boys are too little to know. Let's get It off our hands." “Oh, God!" breathed Davis, and held her to him. Technically. Bee conld have kept the house; it was in her name, and her father offered her a monthly allowance large enough to pay grocery- and furnace-bills, light telephone and wages for one servant; but Bee spared Davis even discussion of this. She dismissed all her maids and turned title of the house over to the bank which held Davis' biggest note; and she sold everything she possessed tha: would fetch a price—except her en gagement- and wedding-ring. So the girl whom her father had always called Dark One retnrned •'home," to his house, with her babies and her husband. “Bee Ayreforth Is perfectly wonderful with her husband," the neighborhood said. "This will make them much closer together." For the neighbors knew that Davis and Bee needed to be brought “closer” — whatever' that meant. The neighbors did not yet

Beatrice Had a Cable From Her Husband In Chicago. know—though Davis and Bee did—that the was bearing him another child.. Yet Darla could not feel that hla wife “loved" him; and he longed as never before for Ipve to reassure him and give him boldness. He became more sensitive to comparison of himself before her with men who continued to succeed, and so he avoided the homes of many of Bee's friends. By himself In the day. he on the men at their offices; be looked up mere acquaintances and even strangers who were suggested as possibly having a job open. He put down his pride mercilessly, except that be refused to take the‘position which bis father-inlaw patently made for him In his office. Jeb was still doing splendidly. The Insull "equities” were still quoted high. Jeb bad proved himself much, much wiser than other men; he pros jiered in the panic; and Du vis could nut bear the thought of him. Yet be had to see Jeb at the house. Bob Gleneith was the one who, usu ally, invited him. Gleneith bad liked him best of Agues* friends, and stow he was doing business with Jeb; for Bob badly needed some new financing which Jeb bad proved able to arrange. Jeb liked to come to the house. Not Infrequently; therefore, four sat down at the dinner-table—Father in his own place, the Dark One In her mother's place, Davis on one side, Jeb on the other. Cravath still served the table; but the bouse staff had been cut in two. So there sat Davis st the table silently between his wife whom be no longer supimrted. and her father who lodged and boarded them both, and who paid even the nursemaid; and opposite sat Jeb Braddon. whose opinions constantly were asked, and given, when expressed, the respect and authority of success. Davis, sometimes, could scarcely eat. At night, after Jeb bad gone. Davis did not sleep. Lie lay alone in a room which bad been a guest-chamber next to the room which had been and now again was Bee’s, and wherein she slept once more in her own bed. Some nights be never got up to disturb her; but often he could not keep himself from entering her room and waking her. Or did he wake her? Had she always been asleep? "Ob! Too! . . .

their beliefs had shot themselves while "cleaning” revolvers, died of monoxide gas poisoning in their garages, or had leaped—or “fallen"—from their office windows. Arthur Linsdale, a neighbor of the Gleneiths, rose from dinner-table and went to the lake shore alone and put a bullet through his head. He was important enough so that cables carried the news that night to European papers; and Beatrice Gleneith read It in her room at her hotel in Florence. She sent Rogna for her daughter. “Agnes, we’re leaving for home. . . . No; your father has not cabled sot me; and I’ve had no letter today. It’s this: Arthur Linsdale's shot himself He’s just your father's age. I’ve often thought as alike. . . . We’re at once." When Bee’s mother and sister were on the water, she met, driving to mar ket, a neighbor of hers whom she had often seen when she had lived in her own house. It was Joyce Mereday. whose husband, though out of a Job since January, bad held on to their home, though it was well known that the grocer and the butcher had not been paid for months. The garage men would not carry slow accounts, and so Gene had got rid of Ms car. Joy was walking from the market. She bad had no servant since Christmas. Bee asked her to lunch; and Joy got into the car casually enough, and as they drove, she referred easily to her children, who were being sent to the public school; they took their lunch with them to save the two-mile walk two extra times a day. Joy was older than Bee, and her girl was ten, and the boy eight It was when Bee and her guest were at the luncheon-table, with Bobby and Davy between them, that Joy suddenly broke down. Cravath had just served her and Bee, and he had laid before the little boys exactly what they ought to have, when Joy dropped her fork, which she had lifted to her Ups. “1 can’t eat I How can l eat? How can I put this food In my mouth when my children —my children are hungry?" Bee Jumped up and caught her in her arms. “No! No!" Joy cried. “I can’t eat! ... I sent my girl and boy to school again with bread with a little butter spread on It! Al) i had In the house! That’s all they’ve had for days in their lunch-boxes! . . . And oatmeal at home. That’s a box of oatmeal I left In your car; all we'll have tonight and tomorrow. . . . And my Sally said to me this morning: "Don’t mind . . . don’t mind. Mother. Nobody knows.’ You see. Bee, they go off by themselves to eat. —Sally and Gene.—so nobody does know, from them. And they eat the oatmeal morning and night at home I They’re such little sports!” Bee made the mistake, that night, of letting Davis learn of this. She would not have told him. but she had to explain two circumstances—Bobby's report to bls father that a big lady cried at lunch-time, and the further fact that Bee was without ten dollars, which was to have served her for the rest of the week; for she bad made Joy take It. Bee herself did not sleep too well that night. She heard Davis walking about; he came into her room and bent over her. •'Hello.” said Bee, and put up a hanJ which be clasped so tight be hurt her; but she let him. “I’ve been looking at our boys," he said. “They’re all right, Davy." “And they will be. Nothing—nothing will ever rob them of their opportunity !" “Os course not." “And by God. I’ll take care of yon —and the little yon that’s coming.’* “Os course you wilt" “Kiss me. Bee." • She put both arms about his neck and found his lips. "That’s like—old times—almost. Bee. Oh. God. how I want you to love me!" The huge ship, upon which Agnes and her mother crossed, was almost without passengers In the first class. It carried, actually, more stewards and attendants for that class than travelera. Topics of discussion between the homebound passengers were seldom cheerful; they felt themselves favored and protected people on their way to hear, at home, the full facts of disasters which had been withheld or glossed over in cables and letters. “Why." said Beatrice Gleneith again and again to Agnes, “why did Mr. Linsdale do It?” (TO BE CONTINUED) Effect of Real Love Is Revealed in Old Lettet -Dear Maine: What you asked me about did I love Charlie, well. dear.

IMPROVED UNUORM INTERNATIONA! SUNDAY I chool Lesson By REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. De»n of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. • Wcetern Newspaper Union.

Lesson for December 13 JOHN’S VISION ON PATMOS LESSON TEXT—Revelation 1:4-18. GOLDEN TEXT—Fear not; I am the firs and the last:....behold. I am alive for ever more. Revelation 1:1?, 18. PRIMARY TOPIC—When John Saw Jesu i Again. JUNIOR TOPlC—Jerusalem, thr Golder. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-• Listening to the Ever-Living Christ YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC - The Living Christ Among the Churches. The first chapter of the Revelation, while it is an introduction ts the entire bode, is worthy of studjr by itself as a glorious revealing if Jesus Christ, his person and work. Some will wish to use the chaptir as a preface to the study of tte solemn and instructive messages 1 o the seven churches of Asia which are found in chapters 2 and 3; but for most schools it will be better i;o concentrate on the messages of the chapter itself. 1. His Person. While many of the characteristics of the Son of God are here presented, two are particularly emphasized. 1. His eternity (w. 8, 11, 17). In a world which understands but little of the meaning of its pa st, which lives in a badly befuddled present, and admittedly knows no hing of the future, it is a source of the deepest satisfactior and peece of heart to know and serve the Cne who “is and was and which is to come, the Almighty.” He already “was in the beginning,” and is to be through all eternity. 2. His glory (vv. 5, 13-16). Jesus Christ is presented in ve *se 5 as “the faithful witness and first begotten of the dead,” who is the ruler “over all the kings oi the earth." The followers of Christ have a glorious captain and leader ’’he kingdoms of all the earth are his by right. Some day he will xule in fact and in person. The infinitely beautiful description of our Lord in verses 13 to 1(1 is almost beyond interpretation. Have you seen him in his majesty and glory? The one who is “in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day” can still see “him who is invisible” (Heb. 11:27). 11. His Work. 1. His victory (v. 18). He died for our sins but "was raised again for our justification” (Rom. 4:25). We have not a dead, but a living Saviour. He nas “the keys of death and hell.” The one who follows a human leader parts with him at the grave. But he who follows Christ does not lost him when he passes over into the next world, for he is there, and he has the keys of all authority, not only in this world but also in that which is to come. 2. His love (v. 5). How deep and rich was his love toward us. It sent him to the c. *oss. 3. His redemption (v. 5). He “washed us from our sirs in his own blood.” We read in Hebrews 9:22 that “without the shedding of blood there is no w mission” The cults and creeds w hich deny or ignore the need of cleansing in the blood of Jesus Christ may be religious but they art: not Christian. 4. His fellowship (v. 13). The candlesticks are churches and the stars are God’s messengers. They are not alone in. the world; he is “in the midst” Do we recognize his presence? 5. His return (v. 7). “Behold, he cometh wiL. clouds.” How can anyone read the New Testament and fail to see, and to leach and to preach the Lord’s return? He is coming again. What is our duty in the light of his coming? a. To live lives of puritj and Christian nobility. (Read I Joho 3:3, und compare w. 1 and 2.) b. To be diligent in saciificial service. “Occupy till I come” (Luke 19:13) is the command M the one who “went into a far country to receive for himself a kir gdom and to return” (Luke 19:11). Love at Nature The presence of the love of Mature is an invariable sign of goodness of heart and justness of moral perception, though by no mesns of moral practice. When it is or .ginally absent from any mind, ha mind is in many respects hard, worldly, and degraded.—Ruskin. A Wife There is one name which I can never utter without a reverence due to the religion which binds earth to heaven—a name cheered, beautiful, exalted and hallowed—a jd that is the name of wife.—Bulwei. Firm Fonndatioo If there be a man on earth to be envied it is he who, amkst the sharpest assaults from his oi m passions, from fortune, from lociety, never falters in his allegiance to God and the inward monitor. Pride and Ingratitude Pride is of such intimate :onnecWn with ingratitude that the actions of ingratitude seem directly resolvable into pride as the principal -«>agr>n of them.—South. Pride and Humility Pride is not the heritage <f man; humility should dwell with frailty, and atone for ignorance, en or, and imperfection.—Sydney Smit II Great Duties Great trials seem to be n nece» sary preparation for great cuties.— E.

Temptation T'O RESIST temptation once A is not a sufficient proof of honesty. If a servant, indeed, were to resist the continued temptation of silver lying in a window when he is sure his master does not know how much there is of it, he would give strong proof of honesty. But this is a proof to which There is a degree of temptation there is a degree of temptation which will overcome any virtue. Now, in so far as you approach temptation to a man, you do him an injury; and, if he is overcome, you share his guilt.—Dr. Johnson.
