How Shall We Take the Most of Life ?

What shall we call that quality which
leads some n to n axe the most OF lie
and the lack OF which holds Others for
ever in the barren lands or at most but
on the edge of success? Is it a sort of
genius, or is it rather the expression of
type OF character than the mark OF a de
gree of mental or mechanical adapt
ability?
A great many people know how to do
sOmet hing, but not great many people,
it would seem, know what the world
wants TO have done, and what part of
il they ought to be able to do. With
ever.increasing insstence the question
comes home to us-s this state OF affiirs
inevitable or remediab'e? When trained
workmen complain of lack Of employ
ment, is the social order wrong, are po-
litical conditions at fault, is it a matter
of supply and demand for the economists
to explain toward solution, or is it a
moral and mental sitting process which
is inseparable from the progress OF the
race? Must we apply sympathy. and
nothing more, to those Intellectual p r
sons who must not only be trained by
society to do certain kind of work, but
must be kept by society, with that
specific kind of work to do P From

Success gives an interesting anecdote
told by Agassiz of his visit when a
young man to the great German nat
uralist Professor Lorenz Oxen.
The professor received his guest with
warm enthusiasm, but apparent embar-
rassment He showed his visitor the
laboratory and the students at work,
also his cabinet, and lastly his splendid
library of books pertaining to geological
science, a collection worth some 81, 900,
and we'll deserving the glow of pride
which the owner manifested as he ex-
plated on its excellence The dinner
hour came, and then the embarrassment
of the great German reached its maxi
mum point I'M. Agassiz, he said,
with perturbation, ito gather and keep
up this library exacts the utmost hus-
bandry Of my pecuniary means. To ac-
complish this allow myself no luxury
whatever Hence my table is restricted
to the plainest fare. Thrice week our
table boasts of meat, the other days we
have only potatoes and salt. very
much regret that your visit has occurred
upon potato day." And so the splen-
did Switzer and the great German, with
his students. dined together on potatoes
and salt And what must those students
have enjoyed in the conversation of
those remarkable men
