We are all Dependent.

There is no such thing as absolute
independence in this world Those
who are mi"litiest are oftentimes the
weakest when their power is taken
AWAY. Who is moro helpless than Il
rich man bercft of his Inherited treas.
urc? And even when endowed with
that for which he had not lalorcd his
dependence was greater than when in
poverty. His wants were greater ana
it required more to supply them: more
servants were needed; more desires
must be gratified; more wishes must
be pandercd to. He needed artists.
sculptors and footmen. villas by the
seas and in the mountains. and for
the qualification of all such desires and
fancies lie was dependent upon others.
Others must bow to him, drive for
him. run errands for him and cater to
his wants. He must be fed by the
grocer clothed by the tailor, housed by
the builder. shaved by the barber, doc
tor"d by the physician. embalmed by
the undertaken. prayed over by the
priest and his final home prepared by
the Srave-digger Poor man. He pre-
tended to Independence. but for every
breath he breathed he was indebted
to an overruling Providence. For the
light of day he was dependent upon the
sun; for the beauty of his ancestral
estate upon the clouds of heaven.
What would he have that did not
come from others? His education the
adornment of his home. the carpets on
the floor, the statuary in the hall, the
paintings on the wall. the silver on the
table the books he reads. the music he
sang-how little he possessed that was
not fashioned by other hands than his!
After all what little reason there is for
any man to eXalt himself above his fell
lows. Humility becomes the greatest
as we'll as the least.
