1t is well that man, the major por-
ton of whose life must, from the actu-
al necessities of living, be devoted to
money-getting, should cultivate some
speciality by way of diversion. 1t may
be a scientific pursuit, study of some
branch of art, an investigation of some
agricultural subject, following of
some historical will-o'- the-wisp, or
what not-only let it be labor of love.
The banker who devotes his odd hours
to Bookkeeping, the mechanic who
takes up line of philosophy, the mer-
chant who INDUCES a stock-breedirg
within, the lawyer who delights in mi
croscopy, the bookkeeper with fancy
for aeronautics, or the broker with n
passion for music-thcse are the men
who do not become drudges. and who
continually grow in moral stature.
Such diversions are conducive to long
evity and give to life zest that the
possible rewards of commercial or pro-
fessional or mechanical industry do not
afford. And these diversions need not
be followed as purely recreative mat
ter, but earnestly and arduously, with
tho purpose of securing important re-
suits, personal and otherwise. though
they will prove recreative nevertheless.
