DISTINCTION AND IT'S ATTENDANTS

1t is Just as natural for properly
constituted man to try to climb up, as
il isfor water TO run down hill. No
man who is working for proper and
legitimate object in life, is indifferent
to the opinion Of his fellows to win the
good opinion of his associates, and to
escape the adverse Judgment. or to win
back lost ground is natural and lauda-
bic ambition. and should be fostered by
every right minded man in the land.
Men only win distinction Of the right

they have the qualities which force it, 1T
