T is better by far to be peace-
I able and prosaic in one“: years
than to go through the world
ill-humored or witty. to a point
where some heart is made to
throb in pain V an eye is made to
weep. r
The peaceable man or women
may be dubbed prosaic by those
high—strung. sensational souls
ever slashing their way through
the brush and making a noise. but
when one is in trouble. one natur-
ally turns to quietude among the
prosaic.
In our trying hours. when the
world seems to be sinking beneath
our feet. our first thought is to
flee {away to some proey harbor of
peace, where we may rest our tor»
tured minds and refresh our
spirits. '
At such a lime the band: may
be playing lively airs. the street:
may be crowded ,with cheering
throngs, but neither the music
nor the clamorous demonstrations
of the people lift us from our de-
spondency.
The excitement frenziea us, it
adds new heat to our fever and
intensifies our pain. The jaunty.
boisterous peeple around us are
like demons pricking our flesh
with sharp-pointed spears. wound-

The rich puking ruby presides

harsh voices. their butterfly
dresses and meaningless gabble.
We yearn for the peace of the
balsam woods. the plaintive songs
of the brooks and the verdure clad
hills far away from the dinning
haunts of men.
And as the years ran-y us on.
and we become more and morw
sensitive to the vanities every—
where about us. this yearning for
the peaceable and prosaic becomes
all the while more and more pro-
nounced.
We tire of the counterfeit and
seek the real. yet we do not al-
ways find the real. for the reason
that we beve so long lived in an
artificial atmosphere. we have to
a large extent become more shame
ourselves. ~
The sublime. the sweet. the
beautiful in life were lost some-
where between the dawn and dusk.
We stepped upon the ’primrosc
paths and quite forgot our duty
to one another, to our children. to
our parents and to our own souls.
We liked to stand in Yhe glare of
the spot light; we enjoyed the
serious stares of the peaceabie and
