than the conceit which rests merely upon So
cial position-the conceit of those who imag-
inc that they thus are divorced from the clay
of common men, of those who shrink with
horror from the idea Of work, as something
which degrades by its very contact. and yet
who, very likely. owe their present position
to some not very remote ancestor who, recog-

from which they draw their income. aRd which
glorified their ancestors more with their soiled
aprons and black gowns than themselves with
their fine ribbons and flash -jewelry. 1t might
be a fine thing to be like the lilies. more glori-
ously clothed than Solomon. and doing no.
thing. as il we were lilies. Advantageous po-
sition Is only n more emphatic call for work (;
and while those who hold the advantage may
not be compelled to manual drudgery, they
should recognize the fact that manua! drndge-
ry may be performed in the same spirit as that
which characterzes their own work, and
therefore, that it is equally honorable
