down the side of the rock. Near
here is Tunnel Cave, closely lcscinb-

Don't Lean Upon Others.

Half the failures of life result from
inactivity and earnest self-help. A
good kick out of doors, is often the
best assistant young man can get.
"Help thyself, and Heaven will help
thee "and God helps those who help
themselves" arc maxims too true for
argument. Be self reliant, and never
lean upon others, either for support
or advice. Halt, at least, of the dis.
appointed men we meet are victims
Of ill-grounded hopes and eXpecta-
tons, persons who have tried to lean
upon others, instead of relying upon
themselves. This leaning is poor
business. 1t seldom pays. Energet.
ic men land they are generally the
class looked mp to for aid) do not
like to be leaned on. If you are rid
ing in railroad car, and a great hulk
ing fellow lays his head on your
shoulder and goes to sleep, yoa indig
nan,ly shake him off. 1t is the same
in business. The man who does not
at least attempt to hoe his own row
need not expect any one to hoe it for
him. 1t is nonsense for any man to
pretend TO the dignity Of being I'M
fortunate who has depended upon
others, when he might have cloyen a
way to fortune for himself.
