THE QUEST. i ' vironment demanded become increas- ingly difficult to supply sndtomain- tain. Bo little can the material con- ditions of happiness be prescribed that it wants but s. more thought, a wait of memory, a vivid anticipation or apprehension, a novel aspect of things suddenly seized. to turn night into day or~joy to woe." It is, futile, then, to suppose, as many of our social reformers do, that by an artificial reconstruction of the social order, by a remouldlng of external and material conditions in the direction of uniformity, ws. can add to human happiness. To quote further from this writer, “man in process of civilization is ad- vancing ever further from his base; the primitive instincts, easily satis- fied by primitive means, are being dravnn out, refined, combined and complicated till their physical origin and root is almost hidden from view. Aa the line of communication with the base lengthens, it becomes atten- uated and more easily penetrable by hostile forces. Man can only guard his advance by slsckening his pace.” Men, doubtless, in all ages have looked upon their own age as subject to more ills than any other, and the present is no exception. The ever- widening extension of the human horizon, the accumulation of know- problem is not solved.

There are conditions in life when optimism is not. justified by the out- look, but even in these cases, even when disaster is inevitable, it is bet- ter to meet the inevitable cheerfully provided there is no escape. In a recent issue we discussed the knockcr. It is pleasant to turn from him to the booster, who is the em- bodiment of healthy optimism. And in this little province of ours it is only necessary to count over a few of. our blessings and advantages in order to become a booster. One can understand why, in a country sub- ject to such natural vicissitndes as earthquakes, cyclones, nnseasonable seasons, drowth or flood or pestil- ence, there is little room for the ex- ercise nf’ optimism, little reason for boosting. In a country like Prince Edward Island, which never knew a disastrous storm, which never exper- ienced a act back through natural or unnatural causes, whose climate is as nearly faultless as earthly cli- mates can be and which has shown its superior advantages by becoming' the wealthiest province, per head, in the Dominion, optimism should be the prevailing note and evdry healthy man or woman should be a booster. And never before in the history of the province has the outlook been as favorable as at present; never before has the faith of our people in tho future of this province been so clear- ly demonstrated and never has faith been more clearly justified than at present.

In sympathy with the anti- cipated boom real estate has already advanced in certain localities one hundred per cent and this is only the beginning. The fpw remaining speci- mons nf that now happily almost ex- tinct family, thc knockers, are bs- glnning tn realize that _when good fortune comes to one it means com- ing guod fortune to all, and even the knockers are joining the ranks of the boosters. Boosting is contagious. In the days of Brii.ain's wars British regiments went irto the attack with a triumph-i ant shout. a shout that both cheered their comrades and struck terror intfi the,heai'ts of the enemy. And tha at- tacks never failed. In the attack up- on the future, which Prince Edward Island is now preparing for, let us go in with a shout for the best period in our history.Our markets in the sis- ter provlnces are being enlarged, pub- llc works in our own province to'the tune of 'eight to ten million dollars are already underway, our railway is about to be linked with that of the continent. Why should not ws enter upon such a chapter with a shout? Here surely is good ground for op- timism and for unbounded faith in a country that never failed and that is about to entor upon a new era with greater advantages than ever were dreamed of. , NOTES _ 1? It is not necessary and it certainly would be futile, to handy words with The Patriot on The Guardian’s atti- tude on the Prohibition question. The people of the province know where Tho Guardian stands and they are with it. We asked The Patriot a straight question which, if it had the honesty to attempt to answer, would have opened its eyes to the ridiculous position which it has assumed on a subject which means more than party~ iam to nine-tenths of the people of the province but which to the Pat- riot means partyism and nothing more. This question 'me Patriot has avoided. Look the subject square in the face, brother Patriot and give your assistance in,having the Prohi- bition Act enforced whether the cn- forcing will make or unmake the gov~ ernment. It is a bigger question than party. APPRECIATION. Sir:-On behalf of the farmers at- tending the Short Course we beg to TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Taka LAXATLVE BROM0 Quininc Tablets.
