GEMS OF THOUGHT
ELEMENTS OF HAPPINESS. Happiness is the legitimate fruitage of love and service.—Arthur S. Hardy. Seek happiness for its own sake, and you will not find it: seek for duty, and happiness will follow as the shadow comes with the sunshine. —Tryon Edwards.. If the principles of contentment are not within us. the height of station and worldly grandeur will as soon add a cubit to a man’s stature as to his happiness.—Sterne. Pure humanity, friendship, home, the interchange of love, bring to earth a foretaste of heaven. They unite terrestrial and celestial joys, .and crown them with blessings infinite. —Mary' Baker Eddy. There is little pleasure in the world that is sincere and true beside that of doing our duty and doing good. No other is comparable to this. —Tillotson. An act of goodness is of itself an act of happiness. No reward corning after the event can compare with the sweet reward that went with it. —Maurice Maeterlinck.
