Men Wanted.

The great want of this age is men.
Men who are not for sale. Men who are
honest. sound from center to circumfer-
ence, true to the hearts core. Men who
will condemn wrong in friend or foe, in
themselves as well as others. Men whose
conciences are steady as the needle to
the pole. Men who will stand for the
right if the heavens totter and the earth
reels. Men who can tell the truth and
look the truth; and look the world and
the devil right in the eye. Men that
neither brag nor run. Men that neither
flag nor finch. Men who can have cour-
age without whistling for it, and joy with
out shouting to bring it. Men to whom
the current of everlasting life runs still
and deep and strong. Men too large for
sectarian limits, and too strong for sec
tartan bonds. Men who do not strive
nor cry, nor cause their voices to be heard
in the streets, bt who will not fail nor be
discouraged until judgment be set on
earth. Men who know their duty and do
it. Men who know their place and fill it.
Men who mind their own business. Men
who will not lie. Men who are not too
lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor.
Men who are willing to eat what they
have earned. and perform what they are
paid for doing.-Washington Oddfellow.
