The great struggle with civilized men
in this world is for wealth. This is
called prime good, the one thingneed
the great desideratum of life, So men
toll for it deceive, cheat, defraud for it.
Give time, strength and too often good
health for it. The truth is, the estimate
put on wealth is too high. Its good, its
value, is overrated. 1t is not the great
good. 1t is not the best thing men can
haYe, It does not confer peace of mind
nor purity Of heart, heartfelt happiness
nor contentment, nor home JOY, nor
social blessedness, nor any Of the solid
and enduring enjoyments. Wealthy
homes are often no happier than those
of the poor and comfortable livers.
Poverty is always an evil: but fair
supply of the necessaries and comforts
of life is quite as apt to confer real peace
as great wealth. It is not gold nor
goods, therefore, that makes men really
wealthy. The best wealth is of the
heart, an enlightened mind, loyal con-
science, pure affections. He is wealthiest
who las the largest stock Of the wisdom,
virtue and lOve-WhOse heart beats with
warm sympathies for his felloW-men-
who finds good in all seasons, all prov
inces, and all men. The generous man
who pities the unfortunate; the poor
man who resists temptation; the wise
man who orders we'll his life; clings
closely to his family and friends; the
studi0gs man, who seeks instruction in
all things, are the truly wealthy men.
