Luck is ever waiting for something to turn up;y labor, with keen eye and strong will, bravely turns up some- thing. Luck lies in bed, and wishes that the postman would bring him news of a legacy; labor turns out at six o'clock, and with busy pen, or ringing hammer, lays the foundation of q competence. Luck whines, labor whis- ties; luck relies on chance, labor on character; luck slips downward to indigence, labor strides upwardto independence. <i xaissq
