Luck.

Rev. H. W. Beecher says in one &C his
lectures: q may here, as well as any
where. impart the secret Of, good and bad
luck There are men, who, supposing
Providence TO have an implacable spite
against them, bemcan in the poverty OF a
wretched old age the mistortunes Of their
lives. Luck forever ran against them and
fer others. One. with a good profession,
lost his luck in the river, where he idled
away his time a. fishing, when he should
have been in his Office. Another, with
good trade, rerpe,ualIy burn. up his luck
by his hot temper, which provoked his
employers 10 leave him. Another, with
lucrative business, lost his luck by amaz-
ing diligence at everything but his bust
ness. Another, who steadily followed
his trade, as steadily followed his bottle.
Another, whowas honest and constant OF
his work. erred BY perpetual misjadg-
menis; he- lacked discretion. Hundreds
lose their luck by endorsing; by sanguine
spseulations; by trusting fraudulent men;
and by dishonest gains. A man never
has good luck who has tad wife. !
never tnew an early rising, hard work
ing, prudent man, careful of his earnings,
and strictly honest who complained Of bad
luck. a good character, good habits, and
iron industry are imptegnsb.s 10 the as
saults ofall the i'll luck that fools ever
dreamed cf. But when see tatter1e-
snalion, creeping out Of grocery late in
the afternoon, with bis hands stuck in lis
pockets, the rim Of his hat turned up. and
the crown knocked in, know he has had
bad luck = for the worst OF all luck is TO
be sluggard, knaye, or a 'ippler."
