false ideals have been sought. lost and
won, and too late we learn the other
side of the story. We have lived life
of desire; desires have been gratified
and yet the worm Of disappointment
has found it's home in the center Of the
fruits of labor. We may spend life in
luxurious refinement or amid the
haunts of vice, bathing in the sunshine
of success or continually sinking in the
slough of dependency and disgrace,
chasing the butterfly of pleasure or
toiling for existence by the sweat of
our brow, wearing the habiliments OF
freedom or the badge of the slave, yet
when the hand of death shall be at the
door and we, freeman or bond, toiler or
sybarite, prodigal OF miser, famous or
infamous, shall look back upon the
closing vista of life we will see that
life revealed in all its emptiness, will
see that happiness as the true measure
of a successful life comes only from
doing good, if not then have we seen

THERE'S TWO SIDES TO EVERY
STORY

Some years ago in the room OF
friend whom I visited. there hung up
on the wall the neatly framed motto
"Theres two sides to every story.
Why is it that some thought, some
set phrase, some word is seized upon
by the mind with greater avidlty than
others? TO me that motto has seemed
possessed of Banquo-like nature.
I've buried it time and again in the
present, only to have it meet me, met
amorphosed, in the future; consigned
it to Pluto, fit guardian of troublesome
things, only to have it turn up with a
sarcastic grin on its .leering face,
thrust it away, to reappear in seraphic
form and beatifc cOuntenance to in
duce nobler thoughts and truer concep-
tions of the life around. How nicely
it fits the varying phases and conditions
of life, from the cradle to the grave,
through the innocence of youth, the
desires of manhood, the disappoint-
ments of age, their truth is ever
brought before us, at times. perhaps,
more forcible than elegant. In youth
how happy we brothers and sisters
gathered around our parents knees to
listen to the quaint familiar tales Of
fairy love, as told by them in the flick
ering light from the old fashioned
fireplace, and later, tucked in bed by
loving hands, dreamt them DER again
Mind you the nervous start, the timid
step, the wishful, anxious look, as on
every hand we thought to see the fairy
form appear. Those were childhood's
days, but how often since then have
we wished to live them over again, t(
hear once more those tales of Grimm
and Mother Goose, which we long since
have found to be only one side of th'
shield. How religiously we clung, hov
sadly we parted from them, as youth
courageous heart bid us look behin'
the scenes. And then at school wher
the master strove to build up within
us a bulwark of honor and virtue, o
truth and knowledge, by lessons fron
the lives of our honored dead. All

THE SPIRIT OF PROGRESS.

In every age few have carried the
torch of progress and handed it down
to others. 1t has been carried through |
all the dark ages of barbarism, and if
1t were not for them we should, in all
probability, be uncivilized people today,
and where we are now living, savages,
with wild beasts tattooed on their
skins, might be dancing fiendish pow
WOW around the camp fire. Although
we have advanced far beyond the con-
dition OF barbarism and have made
wonderful progress in the past, we have
seen but the beginning of invention
and the possibilities of science. The
steam engine and the telegraph will, no
doubt, be surpassed by inventions more
wonderful still. Not only will knowl-
edge. increase, but the good, the true
and the beautiful will eventually tri-
| umph. We can not expect to accom-
plish in our short time all that remains
to be done, but we should do all in our
power toward the cause of human
progress.
Looking back over the pages of the
worlds history, and reviewing the
names of those who have promoted the
welfare of the human race and made
the world better for their having lived,
we naturally inquire, how were they
enabled to accomplish such grand re-
suits and reach the heights to which
they attained? Did they while away
their time building air castles and idly
dreaming of the future? Never; they
} acquired success by honest, persever-
ing industry. They did not live in hope
; with folded arms. If they had fortune
would never have smiled upon them,
for she favors those only who help
themselves. Many would like to mount
t the highest pinnacle of human achieve
ment were there no climbing to be
done. How many would like to &c

STRENGTH OF ABILITY.

1t is a strange phase of human ma
ture that so many of us are failures.
l say strange phase OF ''Nature' be-
cause she. like Dame Fortune, is ever
presumed to be the cause of our earthly
woes. though never an acknowledged
participant in our joys or successes.
Now. is it strange phase of nature
or the underlying Stratum of vanity,
which we all must admit possessing,
that really causes great many of us
to wander aimlessly through life, ac-
complishing no real good? Roaming
about, as it were, like dismantled ship
without chart or cargo. Do we really
know what nature is? Many of us,
while assuming to understand what is
implied by the term are quite ignorant
of it's immensity. In my humble esti-
nation it is every surrounding feature
of our being which opens to our senses
a vivid picture of the Omnipotence OF
an all-powerful Being; the sun with
force unconquerable, lighting it's way
through our grated fortress; the moon,
shedding its soft radiance through the
inky murkiness Of night; the water,
which allays our thirst and dispels the
drowsiness of the morning; the trees,
which, while tempering the force of
the elements, lend to them subtle and
exhila rating fragrance that gives to us
manliness, health and vigor. Nature,
to sum up, is our greatest friend and
aid. This, then, is the power we SO
wantonly accuse of being a deterrent!
Do we ever give this matter the thought
it deserves? No, or else such foolish
plants would not proceed from oul
lips.
If we would give ourselves rigid
impartial examination we would the
more readily find out that in our owl
hands, to greatextent, lies the secre'
of our success. would not have yot
misunderstood what l esteem sue
