Learning their continual feast."â€"Prov. xv., 15. How did your Puritan forefathers dis- to deep, lasting happiness. pose of that text? In their day it read, “A merry heart is a continual feast." Did they. explain it away by saying that the man was made anyway for fasting and not for feasting? Perhaps underneath their austre exterior they, ~ after all, knew something of deep joys and unfailing sOurccs of refreshing hap- piness. . in their teaching they made the mis- take of insisting that it was necessary to seem sad in order to please the most high, We make the mistake of being- sad in order to please ourselves. Their misery at least had the grace of a high motive; ours is born of a shortsighted selfishness that grasps at the shadow of a fleeting satisfaction and loses the substance of lasting joy. Happiness is the highest aim of life, higher than holiness or usefulness, ne- cause it must include .both. "1‘0 us it is so unfamiliar that we do not know it from frivolity; we seek the excite- ment of some pleasing sensation, and, rising to its stimulus, we fall afterwards into the reaction of misery. Happiness is the poise, cairn, strength, and spring of the life fully in harmony with all things good and true. ' Many have thought to give God glory by learn-ed treatises on IIIS MAJESTY AND MYSTERY. But a little child, so happy that he only can kick and crew, praises the Al- mighty more effectively and even de- vcntly than does the theologian who only can offer his bloodless speculations. The great Father gives his children a world brimming over with joy, with laughing meadows, with smiling morns, with rippling bird song, and to man he gives faculties of immeasurable hap- piness. Life is learning the law of hap- piness and practising its use and ser- Vice. But what is the secret of happiness? How Can we learn to be happy when life has so much to make us sad? The praise of happiness does not take away tine fact- of sorrow or solve its dark prob- lem. There remain the million aching. hearts and all the griefs of a world. True. God forbid that we should lose our sorrows; that were to make this a sad world indeed.

There are some lives that seem to run over with a happiness that is full of re- freshing to all who know them, and these have come out of great tribulation. At first the multiplication table is a burden; later, when mastered. it be- comes a wonderful bearer of burdens. To wear a careworn, frctful look, to go through life shedding misery, is to con- fess that we have not learned our les- son, that we are dunces in life's school. TIIE SECRET OF HAPPINESS is in grasping the significance of liv- ing, to learn that we live for things other andhighcr than those .madfollics and fading prizes for which men sell their bodies and souls and fret out their nerves and hearts. No man can te happywhose ..cart is set on the chang- ing fashion of things or who looks for satisfaction in things. The lover is happy because he has dis- covered a prize and is enthralled by a pursuit that makes all other things seem mean and paltry. Men are" happy in proportion as they yield themselves to the best, as they tune their hearts to strike the key of their lives. Paul is happier in the dungeon, where he can be true to his ideal, than Nero on the throne without one. There is feast in days of famine for those who have the inner eyes for the riches of life. You always can find in this world what your heart is looking for. But you cannot satisfy your heart on everything you may chance to find, and until the heart is satisfied and the deeper needs of the life are met there is no happiness. . The search for happiness is not alto- gether selfish. Few things can we do that will help others more than the cut- tivation of serene strength and cheer in ourselves. Not the soulless, set smile, but the strength and sympathy that flow from a life fixed in confidence. in eternal right and good and unfailing love. ' HENRY F. COPE.

One of the oddest nuts in the world is the candle nut, which grows in the Pacific islands. The name is derived froth the fact that the kernel is so full of 011 that when dried it can be stuck in a reed and used as a candle. The natives of Hawaii roast these nuts, and after re- moving the shell reduce the kernel to a paste, which when seasoned with salt and pepper is reported as making an appetizng dish. The husk of the nut. and the gum which-exudes from the tree have medicinal values, while the burned shell is, used in making an indelible ink with which tattooing is done. â€"â€"â€"‘-â€".â€"â€"\‘â€"â€"â€"_ CURIOUS BIBLE-CLASS.

New Zealand fits punishment to crime more nearly than most countries. Thus, at Wanganui, when certain sawycrs troubled their neighbors by their drunk- en freaks, the delinquents were made to pay the fines imposed in such labor as tlsey were accustomed to, and were set to saw wood with which to build a pri-' son. The result was that rather than. transgrcss again, they vanished from' the locality as soon as the edifice was complete. At Elmira, N.
