BuRDETTE,s SERMON,
what Diligence VIII Do-A Few Cases
l,,n


Tho dlligcnt soul always possessed tho land.
Not the man or woman who steps into dead
mans shoes aud fortune, but tho boy and girl
who learn In their teens what dollar Is worth,
and how to gain and use power that money
cannot buy are the people who move tho world.
Clifford, the first editor of the Quarterly Rerci0,
was only common sailor; Ben Jonson was a
DEcknyer; John Bunyan was tinker; Hugh
Miller was qunrrymnn; Shakespearc's father
was 50 illltornte he didn't know how to spell his
sons name neither did his son, and no more do
you, for that matter De Foe the author of
" Robinson Crusoc," wns almost wholly selftaught;
Edgar A. Poe was the son of strolling players;
Ben franklin, the printer, was the son of n tnllow
chandler; Sir Richard Arkwright, Inventor Of
the cotton. spinning machine, was q barber; Tom
Moore was the son of grocer; Gerald Massey
began life as all Grand boy, and Caxtop, who set
up tho first printing press In England. was
weavers apprentice; John Adams was tho son Of
farmer; President Lincoln was u farm hand aud
fiat boatman; Andrew Johnson was tailor;
Grant was tanner; Garfield was n canal boy
none of these men were renowned for their great
wealth, perhaps, but they were diligent in thelr
business and they stood before kings; a long long
way before most kings. There Is no particular
merit IN being II king. Any man who happens to
be born at the right time into the right iamily
can't help being a king But all the kingcrat In
the world couldn't mako DcFne, n Hugh Miller,
Burns or Bunyan, II the boy didn't make him.
