The Best inheritance.

The heir to tens Of millions will re-
ceive a poorer inheritance than that be-
slowed upon his sons by the evangelist,
Dwight L. Moody. A fitting conclusion
to life whose simple greatness is
model for our times are the noble words
of the dying man to his children. II
have always been an ambitious man:
not ambitious to lay up wealth, but to
leave you work to do" These are the
golden words Of wisdom, this the voice
Of true paternal tenderness. The heri-
tage of Mr.. Moody's sons, in the great
life example of their father. in his last
strong message to heart and will, is
richer than lands and palaces and
vaults heaped with bonds. There is
nothing better than life Of useful ac-
tivity; there is no greatness but that of
service; there is no road to fame that
withstands the whitening breath of time
but labor for a high and worthy end.
The strangest contradiction in human
experience is found in the struggle be-
tween a fathers tenderness and desire
to shield his children from life's rough
buffetings and the knowledge which he
himself has won from experience that
1t is only through such combat that
character Is developed. Every man de-
sires for his son the best gifts of life.
He Is ambitious that those who bear
his name and share his blood should
stand with the worthiest. He knows,
If he has Jared his own hard way to
eminence or power. that the law of de-
velopment is memorable and universal;
that every human soul must fight its
own battle; that strength to do and
wisdom to withstand and knowledge to
choose must be plucked as life's spoil
from temptations vanquisned and foes
beaten down, out Of the vortex Of bat
tie with all that pulls us backward to
the beast. The knightly armor and the
knightly vow he may bequeath to his
cherished ones, and that is all. To
himself every human being stands or
falls. For the race is run by one and
one, and never by two and two"
In the face Of the plain and everlast-
ing law of life, which thrusts aside as
blasphemy the notion of labor as the
primal curse and crowns 1t as the
source of blessing and the fountain of
happiness, the world is full Of men who
toll and plan and accumulate that they
may build mountains before the feet
of their children. There are young
men whose traits and training fit them
for the handling of great fortunes WISE
ly; but they are few among many. For
the multitude, the hot blood of youth
needs most to be harnessed to the heavy
chariot of the days hard work. In
the days when strength runs riot and
will have it's outlet, when imagination
and curiosity and the allurements of
inexperienced delights are like scourg-
es to a thoroughbred steed, the gift Of
idleness, the open way to all enjoy
ments and all follies is as the doom of
death. A youth ''by poverty op-
pressed is infinitely more hopeful than
one weighed down by the curse of af-
| fiuenee. The reproach that is cast SO
often upon the sons Of rich men rests
rightfully upon the heads OF the faith

Remember Gen. Lawton's Family.
The Post-Inteiiigencer desires to COM
mend to the people of Seattle and those
of the Pacific Northwest in the strong
est terms the appeal contained in the
following telegram received from Gen.
Shafter last night:
San Francisco, CAL, Dec. %, 1899.
ITO the Editor: I am appointed by the
war department to receive from the people
of the Pacific coast contributions Of funds
for Gen. Lawton's family. am confident
that merely a statement Of the purpose
will result In a quick response from our
generous people at this Christmas season.
Your aid is requested. Contributions will
be acknowledged by letter and through
press. Address me at Army Headquarters,
San Francisco.
WILLIAM R. SHAF.rER,
Major General U. s. Volunteers"
Gen. Lawton was a brave soldier
whose life was spent in the service OF
his country and who found a soldiers
death on the field of battle. Through
no fault of his, but because of the ext
gencies of the soldiers life, his family
is left wholly without support. The
mere statement Of these facts should be
enough to appeal to the sympathetic
and generous American people. Now,
when hearts are light and homes happy
and families reunited, is the time to
remember the widow and the father
less; to honor the dead as he would
wish to be honored, by providing for
the living who were so dear to him.
The Observation-Disclosures will receive,
acknowledge and forward to Gen. Shat
ter all contributions sent to this Office,
and 1t urges liberal response to this
touching appeal in behalf Of those who
are now the nations wards.
