There is nothing more pitiful than
the misery some people inflict on their
families because they have not accom-
plished their souls desire. Many peo-
pie gamble away their lives in more
fruitless and wicked efforts than the
man who handles the gamblers cards.
One woman imagines that she has
great ability in art, and she compels
her family to make most cruel sscri-
fees for her benefit, when she ought to
have earned the money herself for her
art education IN some practical pursuit
in which she is really accomplished.
1t may be that after years Of instruc-
tion she becomes only . clever
dabster. II she have the fire Of
true genius she will overcome
every obstacle and finally succeed.
Everyone In the world has life duty,
. duty God-given. which lies before
them and which is their irst duty-the
duty Of the wife to keep = good and
comfortable home. of the husband to
provide literally and to the best Of his
power for his family. Of the sister and
brother to all their parts in the homo
life. Any scheme. however attractive,
which comes In the way OF these
simplest vet paramount duties Is =
temptation Of Satan. Any man who
fails in his frat duty and devotes his
life to great inventions which bring no
certain return. however attractive aud
fiattering in themselves. is guilty Of .
species Of gambling not less distress
full In its final results than that Of the
regular gambler. There are hum
dreds of successful inventors in the
world who never laid aside their
practical, everyday work to dream
over uncertainties, but who managed
to work out their inventions 1t odd mo-
menta There arc hundreds Of authors
who have earned their bread 1t the
clerks desk and in various ways be-
fore they finally achieved the laurels
of authorship. John Mccullough, the
great actor, read Shakespeare BY the

was working in the coal mine. He did
not spend his time like staGe-struck
