II has been said that every man has
q grand opportunity" once, and only
once in lifetime. II he embraces it
he is on the road to success: If he suf-
fers it to escape him, he may run after
it till he is weary and his strength is
spent, and even then it will elude him.
To a certain extent this is true, but
why do we run after lost opportunities
If we have lost the silken scarf, can we
not be content with the woolen one?
II we cannot be generals we can at least
be soldiers. Every man cannot be fam
ous; but every man can be great. If we
cannot achieve fame for ourselves, we
can help others on the road to it. A
kindly smile and an encouraging word
has smoothed many rugged hill in the
path to success, and raised many flag
ging spirit and dropping energy. II we
cannot attain success, it will prove some
satisfaction to know we have attempted
TO gain IT, And after all, we have
something more TO live for than the
praise Of men. II we can truly feel at
the end Of life's journey that we have
left the world little better and bright
er for our having lived in it, we need
not regret that our names are not
placed upon the scroll of fame.

The following law, which was passed
by the last Legislature, is of Importance
to the different school boards and may
be new to some of the readers of THE
STAR: "The boards of school directors
and controls of each school district OF
this Commonwealth. be and they are
hereby required at least once during
each full school term and prior to the
first of January of each year. and with
in thirty days after the close of each
annual school term, to have taken out,
removed and hauled away all excrement
and waste matter from every clubhouse
or water closet connected with or stand
ing upon the premises of every public
school house in the Commonwealth, or
have the same properly disinfected, and
they are required to have every out
house or watercloset scrubbed, washed
out and cleaned, the inside walls white
washed and the vaults or receptacles
covered with layer of fresh dirt or
Stacked lime within ten days of the
opening of each annual school term.
That the president of each board of
school directors or controllers is requir-
cd each year to certify, in the regular
form provided for that purpose, that
the requirements OF this Act have been
fully carried out before the district can
draw its annual appropriation from the
State"

or after their death. Paul says, "a
man that provideth not for his own,
and especially those of his own house
hold is worse than an infdel."
After the certificate of death has been
made out and the thirty days have
passed, the members of the order per-
form the charitable feature, as the
Apostle James says, ''True religion and
undefiled before God and the father is
to visit the fatherless and the widow in
their affliction.' Men think only of
their spiritual welfare in connection
with death, and not of the devastation
in their household from their leaving
1t. 1t seems meanly selfish to be so
absorbed in the Heaven that you are
going to, that you forget what is to
become of your wife and children after
you have gone. After death you move
to a majestic mansion fronting on that
beautiful river; the family moves into
a squallid room in some tumble down
shanty on a back street. When they
are out at the elbows and knees, the
thought of your golden crown and shin
ing robe in heaven will not keep them
warm. The minister may preach
splendid sermon oyer your remains and
the choir sing like four angels in the
organ loft but your death will be
swindle, II you had the means to provide
for the comfort of your household before
you left it, and wickedly neglected it.
We have Divine assurance that the
Lord provides for all, yet I would
rather have Him provide for my family
through my own industry and precau-
tion, than to have Him provide through
public charity. Now is the time to
make this provision for the welfare of
your family, not some day in the future.
Look up the pathway of the future;
you will see it crossed by all manner of
accidents, all diseases that human flesh
is heir to, and some Of them will find
you. There is always cause to take
you Off. You may feel prosperous.
knock the life out Of your estate. You
may think you are worth $1,000, IL
forced sale makes $1,000. The less you
leave, the less they get. Your helpless
children and heartbrolSen wife will face
a cold world. Tear down the curtains.
rip up the carpets! pull down the pic
lures! close up the organ or piano. and
sell all. Mother takes the children
and trudges through the desert of the
world. Insurance could have hindered
all that.
Is there anything more pitiable than
woman delicately raised by kind par
ents, on her marriage day given to a
man who is to her the chief joy and aim
| of her life until the moment OF death,
then have to go with delicate children
to struggle with the world for bread.
And yet there are good women who
are not only Indifferent to insurance,
but positively hostile to it, as though
there was some fatality connected with
anything that implies death to be pos
sible in the household. Iknow of wives
who bitterly opposed their husbands in
such matters, and since he has been
taken away, poverty's cruel wolf has
been snaring at their doors and nc
means left to prevent it.

application to
