Character the Key to Success.

Two fundamental psychological ele-

pie are character and intelligence. Char.
acter Is infinitely more important to the
success of an individual or race than In
telligence. Rome, In her decline, certainly
possessed more superior minds than the
Rome of the earlier ages of the republic.
Brilliant artists, eloquent rhetoricians, and
graceful writer's appeared then by the hun.
dred. But she was lacking In men of
manly and energetic character, who may
perhaps have been careless of the refine.
ments of art, but were very careful of the
power of the city whose grandeur they had
founded. When 1t had lost all of these
Rome had to give way to peoples much
less Intelligent but more energetic. The
conquest of the ancient, refined, and let
tered GIpco-Latin world by tribes OF semi
barbarous Arabs constitutes another exam
pie of the same kind. History is full OF
such Popular Science Monthly.
