The Laborer's Race for Life.

Possibly you have said that Jay Gould
is very bad man, disgrace to the coun-
try and robber of the people. Were it pos
sible for jay Gould to throw his golden
mantle about your shoulders would you
object? Be honest now with yourself
when you answer this. How many there
are railing against capitalists who are only
sore because it is not themselves who have
the money. and not the other fellow! The
man who does not care to be rich is con-
tented with his wages; therefore live COM
fortably and happily. Those who are en-
vious do the most growing and complain
ing:
The weight that besets more than all the
others. and is responsible for the great ma
jority of failures in life, is that of intern
perance. 1t is milestone about your neck.
Go into our streets and into the by-ways
and ask why thousands of suffers were dis
tanced in the race. The answer will need
no oracle to expound its meaning. 1t may
not be in words. yet it will be unmistakable.
This weight attaches itself after the manner
of the parasite or barnacle. Instead of fall
ing suddenly and crushing or disabling the
victim at once, it grows gradually, and just
as gradually robs him Of his vitality and
checks his speed, until at last he realizes
