Taking Things for Granted.


Half the failures in life result from
the habit so many people have OF taking
things for granted, The business maH
takes it for granted that his wife knows
what style of living his income will a
rant, until the logic of addition, ub-
traction and multiplication proves too
much for him, and down comes his bust
ness in ruins. The young professional
man takes it for granted that veneering
instead of solid requirement. will enable
him to succeed, because there are so
many notorious examples of mems ris-
ing and maintaining themselves in pub
lie life, through pure audacity, native
wit and an utter lack of conscience. lie
will find too late that il won't do to
plan and risk a career by the exceptions
rather than the rule. The farmer keeps
no accounts; crops his farm according
to the season or last years markets, or
his neighbours success; takes it for
granted that the laws of nature and of
trade will accommodate themselves to
his necessities; sinks deeper into debt,
and wonders why farming doesn't pay.
And o on to the end men everywhere
want success without paying its price in
thorough preparations, honest hard
work, intelligent calculation and fore
sight, and patient attention TO details.
They take for granted things which it is
their business to know, and trust that
TO fortune which common sense and eX-
perience should teach them is controlled
by law.
In domestic life the same faulty is
felt. The unhappiness unconsciously
and t~houghtlessly inflicted aggregates
a good part of the total felt in the
average life. How many husbands take
it for granted that their wives know
they love them, and so never show il in
the old lover-like way! How manytakC
it for granted that the wife will ask for
money if she needs it-heedless OF
ignorant of the pain it gives a sensitive
woman to ask for every dollar she
r%eceivesl How many fathers take it for
granted that daughters need nothing
but a home and clothing; that boys car
not suffer for want of amusement,
recreation, sympathy or oompanionship
that the tired mother would herself plar
and execute n vacation rest if she need
cd i'll
There is, of course, something to bt
said on the other SIDE; but as q ruiz
women are much more thoughtful il
such matters than men are. If, however
any of them who read this conclude, OF
reflection, that they are receiving a little
too much as q matter of course, thu
results of a husbands toll and fidelity
they will know how to make amends
The splendid devotions and sacrifices o
manly men, illustrated every day and il
all walks of life, are not matters to b,
accepted in an unsympathetic, listless
matter-of-fact way. II is not enough il
this world to ''mean we'll" We ough
TO do well. ThOughtfulness, therefore
becomes a duty, and gratitude n of tn,
graces. Alike in the fine things of lif
and in its common work and duties lie
us not take-or leave those whom w
love to take-too many things for grant
ed.-GoiRen Rule.
