The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1866-10-30

One THING AT A TIME-Step among
your neighbors, reader, and see whether
those among them who have got along
smoothly, and accumulated property, and
gained good name, have not been men
who bent themselves to one single branch
of business. It must be SO. Go out in
the spring, when the sun is far distant,
and you can scarcely feel the influence Of
its beams, scattered as they are over the
widcface of the creation; but collect those
beams to focus, and they kindle up q
fame in an instant. So the man that
squanders his talents and bis strength on
many things will fail to make an impress
sion with either; but let him draw them
to ppint--let him strike at single OBJ.
ject, and it will yield before him.

Character.

A good character is TO a young man
what firm foundation is to the artist,
who proposes to erect building on il;
he can build with safety, and as all who
behold it will have conf dence in its solid
ity, a helping hand will never be wanted,
But let single part of this be defective,
and you go on hazard, amid doubling
and distrust, and ten to one it will tum-
BILE at last, and mingle all that was built
on its ruins.

Painting Under Difficulties.

of an artist whose back was towards me,
whose form was enveloped in loose
poncho, and who seemed to be working

for his body was thrown back IN his
chair, and bis knees were raised to a level
with his chin. found, to my amaze
ment. thai this was no loafer, but Myn-
heer Won Biffin. Won Biffin was simply
painting a Madonna with his toes. His
feet were encased in woollen socks with
the tops cut off-mittens, so to speak
between the great toe and first finger
of the right foot he held the pencil, on
the great toe of the left foot he held his
palette. The poor fellow had no arms
at all. and, they told me, had been born
so. Yet he is esteemed the rapidest
and deftest copyist in the Museum, and
can earn an income equal in English
money to FIVE hundred pounds year.
They told me, too, that at the cafe he
played dominoes with his toes, and that
he even shaved himself by the aid of
those extremities-which last feat /
would rather see before believing it,
He was there, however, visibly and I'M
