Another very rioh man was Tor four
years a marked Il ure in one OF onr inland
cities from his shabby clothes and meaare,
hunger bitten face. He lived in single
room. and ate bis scanty meals from street
stalls. often rquAbbing with the vendors
over a penny's charge, Yet st this very
time this man sent monthly large contri.

We repeat these facts not az gossip but
TO call attention to q pecuiarity 10 human
nature which many Of our readers may
share.
These two men were not misers in .
strict sense. nor even psrsimonious, but
they saw the facts OF life In false rela,
,ion. Forced TO strict economy in their
youth, the old hat aud the penny roll
always assumed an undue importance In
their eyes. and overweighed not only do
cency and Justice. but thousands Of dol
lars.
We are oil apt to fall into some such
error. The petty social ambitions Of our
village. our own foolish dislkes or opin'
ions on trivial subjects, above all our dis
eases, assume enormous Importance TO us,
just as . small object passing too close to
the eye will seem larger than the horizon.

alas those who are expert swimmers could
not keep alive for any great length OF time
