And ever at his side was Joseph cheerful, indefatigable, resourceful. There was in his mind one of the greatest happinesses of life the sense of something satisfactorily accomplished the peacefulness that comes when the necessity for effort is past and left behind that lying down to rest which must surely be something like Death in its kindest form.
But is there not yet a third class of Christians whose failure lies largely in their not embracing the promise and claiming it by faith? In each of these three ways failure may come in and covenant blessings may be lost. Let us now consider what are the blessings, the manifold happinesses which faith is to claim when the conditions are fulfilled. I. Stability.
It was one of the great happinesses of Mr Carden's life that of this number was Julian Home. With a clear 300 pounds a year of his own, it was of course unnecessary for Julian to return to Saint Werner's as a sizar, and he at once wrote to his tutor to beg that his name might be removed from the list.
Years after when Arthur Eden had grown into but stop, I must not so far anticipate my story. Suffice it to say, that Walter's kindness to Eden, helped to bring about long afterwards one of the chief happinesses of his own life. "Come a stroll, Eden, before third school, and let's have a talk," he said, as they came out from dinner in hall the next day.
KING'S COLLEGE, May 6, 1736. Dear George, I agree with you entirely in the pleasure you take in talking over old stories, but can't say but I meet every day with new circumstances, which will be still more pleasure to me to recollect.

I have not found an outsider whose observation of Scientists furnished him a view that differed from my own.

They have put a curse upon the life of every human being I have ever known, young or old. I concede not a single exception.
"And let me remind you that you've already given away your case by acknowledging that they're happy." "She is happy because she has conquered; he is happy because he has at last hung all the world's beauty on to a single peg. He was always trying to do it. He used to call the peg humanity. Will either of these happinesses last? His can't. Hers only for a time.
Gladstone, whose friendship was one of the chief happinesses of Freddy Leveson's maturer life. His link with them was Harriet, Duchess of Sutherland, who, in spite of all Whiggish prejudices against the half-converted Tory, was one of Gladstone's most enthusiastic disciples. In "Cliveden's proud alcove," and in that sumptuous villa at Chiswick where Fox and Canning died, Mr. and Mrs.
Good men draw together very slowly. Yet it is one of the greatest happinesses one is capable of, to introduce two such to one another, and see how soon they become friends. But bad men congregate like crows or jackals, and when a new one appears, he is received into the pack without question, as soon as he has given proof sufficient of being a rascal. This was the case with George Hawker.
It was one of the happinesses of his life to dress just as he pleased as he went about his own place; and it certainly was his pleasure to wear older clothes than any one else in his establishment. "Miss Rowley," he said, coming forward to give her a hand out of the carriage, "I am delighted that you should see Monkhams at last." "You see I have kept you to your promise.
