Misery rldea Just as often hi an automobile as It docs on tho shoulders of the pedestrian; and theie is no misery harder to endure than tho misery of tho rich. That selfishness and happiness cannot dwell togother has been demonstrated ever since the beginning of time; and yet the multitude seeks it in that way Looking back over the pages of history, and considering one's own experience In life, leads to tho conclusion that the proper definition for happiness Is: Elimination of selfishness from human consciousness. con-sciousness. Charles Klngsley has truly said: 'If you wish to be miserable you must think about jour.self: about whnt you want, what you like, what respect people ought to pay you; and then to jou nothing will be pure. You will spoil everything jou touch, you will make sin and misery for joursclf out or everything wlilchGodsendsyou,andyou will boas wretch ed as you' choose.' The way to happiness Is through self-Immolation, and a right estimate of what Is duo to our fellow-man. It Is tho 'Straight and narrow way.' We may seek happiness hap-piness In other ways, but the endeavor will provo fruitless." |
