A HAPPY NEW YEAR We wish every one of our -numerous readers,, a hearty and' happy New Year. Happiness, in the last analysis, is relative. What ! makes one person happy merely bores another. A baby is delighted j with a bright penny. His mother, who may be rich, is happy with j nothing less than a $lo,ooo sedan. Pleasure is but a low expression ! of happiness, real, it is true but largely appealing to the senses.! Real happiness strikes deeper, it seems to us. It means content-j ment, joyful satisfaction—blessedness, if you please. Pope says, \ O happiness, our being's end and aim.\ Well, so it is. But how few seek for it where it may be found. Happiness is\ a result, not a cause. So it would appear that one who can shape the cause\ can secure the effect which is various degrees of content- ment or happiness. Happiness conies from prosperity, from good j fortune, from any number of things, indeed. But we have seen : ll f l ^ployed in the Comttinen.tai & Cwameroiai National ' . . , •-.••; •-••-. . , .- Chicago.
