SIMPLY MEANS Or HAPPINESS
Dissertation on Wisdom Suggested by
Sentence from Works of
Thomas Carlyle.
Hi re is a little sentence from Car
lyle: “Holng miserable be lias been
unwise.“ So if is something to be
wise, and what i wisdom? l'he lliblo
says ii is that wliicli romes down from
above. II Is a spirit that gets into
ont life; it is a temper, a disposition,
nn inclination that presides over ones
conduct, ind directs it toward what is
pure and true It is more of discern
ment than knowledge; more of emo
tion than of thought. It is a phase
of faith which believes In the right of
tilings, it grows out of faith in the
final triumph of goodness and files to
help it along.
Hut aside from the generality ol ex
pression it reaches into every little
corner and crevice of life and makes
people happy. Wisdom is simply par
alleling (Sod’s law and when this is
not done, then misery enters. This
is an everyday fact. People who
growl, curse, hate, client, revile, and
loaf away their lives are not wise.
People who are always searching for
happiness are not wise, for the end
of their searching will be misery.
Wisdom is a force in the soul that
keeps doing something for oneself or
for others it is not opinion, it is the
upward bent of the soul, it is the
condition of happiness and all the
wealth, power, or knowledge iu the
world cannot make it otherwise—Ohio

NEVtH TOUCH THE SURFACE
What Happens When Drops of
Water Are Scattered on Top of
a Hot Stove.
(
It is impossible to throw a few drops
of water on u redhot stove. The water
ran never touch the stove at all. What
is seen is a few drops rolling rapidly
over the surface, gradually getting
smaller until they disappear. If the
drops are on a perfectly level place
one can see under them to the other
side of the room, thus proving that
they are not in contact with the stove
Itself.
What actually happens is that the
bottom of tlie drop changes at once
to steam or vapor on coming close to
the hot surface, and this vapor is sup
plied by t lie drop as it gradually goes
away. So the drop rests on a cushion
of vapor until it is entirely dissipated.
This state of water is known as the
spheroidal state, and is of interest on
account of it s peculiarity and seeming
ly paradoxical behavior.
The reason why the drop is not im
mediately evaporated or changed to
■team is also very interesting. The
water vapor that intervenes between
its under surface and the redhot stove
is a very bad conductor of heat and
consequently the full intensity of the
heat cannot get into the water itself,
only (he amount transmitted through
the vapor being available for this pur
pose—The Sunday Magazine
Good Reading.
A good book Is the next best (king
to a good friend. Indeed, there is such
« tilings an iiit iiit-iulfthip tn nooks, ior
a hook often performs the friendly
function of beguiling our tedium or
solacing our affliction. There are
books we lake from the shelf in the
spirit In which we grasp the hand of
a friend The leather binding with
which we are so familiar seems to he
the outer integument inclosing a soul,
a human personality When we start
to read, it is as though we became the
docile listener, willingly allowing our
imaginations to lie led captive by the
enchaining language of a living speak
er. .lust as being with a bad man is
likely to have a demoralizing effect
upon our characters, so the Intimate
association with a bad bok may in
fluence us in lhe direction of a de
praved and perverted point of view.
It Is said that a man may lie known
by tiie company lie keeps. He may
also be known by the books that are
on his live foot shelf or in his pigskin
library.
High Cost of Beauty.
Though the prescription seems to
have disappeared from the pharina
copia of modern "beauty specialists, ’
It was for centuries notorious that to
feed on snake meat was the way to
win perpetual youth; to cure goiter,
again, or any other swelling, all that
was necessary was to munch a viper,
from the tail up, as it might be a
stick of celery; while yet another
snake, if eaten, conferred the power
of understanding all the tongues of
birds.
