THE QUIET CORNER VIA CRUCIS (Written for THE SUN by the Rev. Charles Chandler , Assistant City Missioner.) QOME of us seem to have all the kicks, while others have all the ha'pence. If there's a cold to be caught, we catch it. If it”s not the doctor's brougham, it's the bailiff's wagon. We are shuttlecocked between the battledores of sickness and adversity, until those who look on in their apparent immunity from trouble, fall to wondering when their turn is coming, as “come it must” they say. The supposedly fortunate ones who have few worries and no distresses begin to live in fearsome expectancy of that day which they feel is bound to come; the day whereon their tide of fortune will turn back, bearing them with it into a sea of trouble. They wonder why they have been spared, and question ichether they deserve such freedom from distress. There are others ivho hesitate and falter life away"; “who never deeply feel, nor clearly will”—for whom life is an orange to be squeezed, rather than a chalice to be filled. Surely the truth of the whole matter is that pain is as necessary to life as warmth and love, and that the empty cup is the hardest of all to bear. Those who seek for joy alone are sure of disillusionment. Poor vaunt of life indeed, Were man but forced to feed On joy, to solely seek and find and feast : Such feasting ended, then As sure an end to men ; Irks care the crop-full bird? Frets doubt the maw-crammed beast? Not freedom from, but strength to bear, the pain—that is what to strive for. Without some shadows , life itself is vain. He truly lives to triumph over loss, whose pilgrimage of faith in God has led him via the cross. NEXT WEEK: IMPRESSIONS
