The Elements of Success.

One Of the most knotty problems
which the thoughtful mind is caused
to confront is the success of the few
and the failure of the many whose
names are inscribed upon the roll
call of public favor. As we look
about us we see ignorant, egotistical
men go up, and brilliant, modest men
go down, in the scale in which they
are weighed, and we cannot fathom
why the latter are found wanting. No
one is at a loss to understand the
shipwreck of him who is especially
the slave of any form of vice; for
that evils such as wine, women and
cards If carried to an excess, will in
time undermine the moral character
and devour the most ample fortune,
is generally accepted. But the failure
In him who is at once earnest, daring
and enduring, and whole brain power
seems gigantic enough to carry him
proudly through any enterprise; is a
puzzle which it appears almost, if not
impossible to solve.
LACK o. APPRECIATION
Help and encouragement after is the
unseen crag against which the barque
Of the aspirant is dashed to pieces.
It is impossible for even the most
self-reliant to go through the world
entirely single handed, and if when
the waters Of adversely surge noun
tains high and ~ angry whirlpool
composed of several contering cur
rents dash over and seethe about
him, some one could or would forsee
his peri. and toss out to him the
rope Of influence, he might yet be
able to make great man OF himself.
On the other hand though, if he has
within him the strength to pull alone
for the other shore. he becomes a
holder and better swimmer than
though he had been received by
some force outside of himself; while
it is a recognized fact that help as
often enfeebles as it strengthens. Still
there are times when discrete assist
ance is . benefit to all and there are
men who on account of the abuse OF
1t have lost all that they have pre-
yiously staked.
