SUCCESSFUL MEN.-Who are thev p
They are those who, when boys, were
compelled to work, either to help them
selves or their parents; and who, when a
little older were under the stern necessity
Of doing more than their Legitimate share
of labor; who, as young men, had their
wits Sharpened by having to devise ways
and means of making their time more
available than it would have been under
ordinary circumstances Hence, in read
ing the lives Of men who have greatly
distinguished themselves, we find their
whole youth passed in seIfdenials Of food,
and rest, and sleep, and recreation. They
sat up late, and rose early, to the perform
ance of imperative duties, doing by day
light the work Of one man and by night
the work of another.
Said a gentleman, the other day. now
private banker, Of high integrity, and
whom We know to have started in life
without dollar: For years together
was in my place of business at sunrise
and often did not leave it for fifteen or
eighteen hours"
Let not, therefore, any youth be dis
cOuraged if he have to make his own liy-
ing, or even to support besides widowed
mother, or sick sister, or unfortunate re-
lation, for this has been the road to cmi.
nence Of many proud name. This is the
path which printers and teachers have Of
ten trod; thorny enough at times, at 9th
ers so beset with obstacles as to be almost
impossible; but the way has cleared, sun
shine came, success followed, then the
glory and renown!

HoRRoRs OF FAMINE.-In $50, the year
Of the invasion of Italy by Theodcbert,
occurred season of dreadful famine. In
Anccna alone more than $4,000 are stated
to have perished from hunger and the
Tuscans were driven to feed on acorns-
PrOcopius was a personal witness Of. its
horrors. lie saw starving wrctches fling
themselves down.upon herbs and grasses,
and make a faint attempt to tear them
from the ground; but their cnfecblcd
strength often failed them and they cx-
pired in the effort. lie saw their bodies
left, as they fell, to blacken in the sun,
and displaying corruption in its most hid.
cous forms. Yet the shastly aspect Of
the dead was exceeded by that of the sur
vivors. Their livid hue was compared to
the color Of an extinguiShcd torch, and
their skin seemed closely adLering to their
bones. Their haggard features were dis
torted with wild and fearful expression,
and CLEAN of maniac fury shot forth
from their hollow eyes. Sometimes their
lips were seen to drip with blood from de-
vOuring the severed limbs Of their ifeess
companions yet even the birds Of prey
turned from the carcaSscs, after seeking
in vain for some nourishmcnt in those dry
and wasted remains.

SPANISH AMERICAN REPrBLIcS.-A late
census makes the population Of Chill to
be ! ,439, l2O, an increase in ten years of
365,3l0. Over 500 persons born in the
United States live in the country. A re.
cent estimate of the population Of Mexico
places it at s,2S7, ,412, the increase since
1850 being 100000. This estimate seems
to be in many respects inaccurate. The
last official census of Bolivia gives a total
population for that country Of 1881, 1925,
Of which 245, 900 were Indians.

idlest, the vainest, the most self-conceit-
