As the war progresses to its finish, which will come some glad day, perhaps even nearer than is now expected, the strain upon those who await Its outcome with the most intense anxiety daily becomes more difficult to stand. The tense situation encourages the development of a state of mind which is harassing, and cue which, if not checked, must ultimately result in a more or less serious collapse after such long-continued pres-sure. Great restraint of natural impulses toward over-excitement con-cerning the war is essential as well / to the individual as to the national well-being. Americans must keep their heads cool and their bodies strong in j order to do their full duty in this! great emergency. They must not give way to feelings of despondency when ? temporary discouragements to the ad"*R^ce of the cause occur, nor shoulo they become too sanguine of immediate success ^ben the news comes of a v" decided advantage. The untroubled and serene mind is to be sedulously coltiva^d in these stirring times.? Hie Bellman. ' 3ui!ding Record. * All building records were broken recently at Grasmere, S.

The Mussulman's grief at the fall of \ Jerusalem is largely centered in the | fate of the Dome of the Rock. For i centuries devout Mohammedans have ? trt thic snnt whirh thov ' JVUi lit J V U IV LIU *J . . ? X-? k. count second only to the holy places of ; . lecca in religious significance. Directly under the rounded dome! topped with the Turkish crescent is the j sacred rock about which a host of tra- j ditions?Jewish, Christian and Mo- ; hammedan?have been collected. From ! this rock Mohammed ascended into j ? hpnvpn nn his steed El Borak. the lisrht- ; ning. Here also, if tradition is worth anything, rested Noah'^ ark, and Jacob . saw the angelic vision. This spot is; 18 miles nearer heaven than any other on the earth, and the Turks accept j the old Jewish theory that this is the j center of the earth. Here on the judgment day will the angel Gabriel stand when he sounds his trumpet. There is little room for argument over these statements. You accept or f reject them as you will. But long and j heated have been the learned dissertations to decide whether this identical spot, already overcrowded with asso- ic ciations, is the site of Solomon's tem-; pie or of the tomb of Christ, science now leans toward the former conclu- ' sion and grants that very likely the n rock marks the place where stood the ^ altar of the lamous Jewish temple. ! ( Even for a confirmed skeptic the \ place must hold some interest, for the structure protecting the1 rock is a t worthy rival of the Taj Mahal in beau- f 4-T* nf TKo KnilHfnff !c nnfo CTAT1 l-' VJ- ? ? e a al like a mosque and popularly called c the Mosque of Omar, to the distress of the well informed, who point out (1 that it is only a shrine and that the 1 true Mosque of Omar is a small vault- c like building in no way connected with the sacred rock. Mohammedan worship is as yet un- 1 disturbed by the viceroy of the Chris- t. tians, the chief difference being that c the Mohammedan is now the tenant ^ and the unbeliever the landlord. ONLY NEEDED TO BE FEU Simple Reason Why Imported Engine Could Not Be Persuaded to Do Its Duty. The first locomotive used on the s Champlain & St. Lawrence railroad t came from Europe, accompanied by an engineer who, for some unexplained 2 reason, had it caged and secreted from e public view. The trial trip was made c by moonlight, in the presence of a few' s interested persons, and it is not de- a scribe^ as a success. Later, the imported engineer made several attempts to set the Kitten?for such was the a nicknafcie applied to this pioneer loco- rj motive?in motion toward St. Johns, , but in vain; the engine proved refractory, and horses were temporarily sub- L stituted for it. E Meanwhile, the railroad officials call- a ed in a practical engineer from the t United States, who announced that the t engine, which was thought to be hopelessly unmanageable, was in good order and required only plenty of wood * and water. His opinion proved cor- t rect* for after a little practice the en- 1 gine attained the extraordinary speed e of 20 miles an hour!?grout's Railways of Canada. ________________ "v E V~ h Elusive Hacpinefes. i ' rl We must remember one thing.

Happiness is elusive. It will escape a us, if we seek to hold it. But if we go our way, if we refuse to lose our faith, no matter how sad we may be, ^ no matter how weary or how disheart- * ened, we will learn to find happiness r in little things, in the reading of a u book, in the singing of a song, in the h making of a dress, in the doing of our work. j It is the last thing indeed that is a the real cure for the disillusionment j of life that comes to each of us. Work is the great panacea. If we work, and v work well, we shall find much to com-! f pensate us.
