The best work is often done
under pressure-duties crowding
for attention and the mind leap
ing from crag to crag of the
mountain of work, instead of
shutting along indolently over
each petty step of the way. This
crowding of activities into life is
coming more and more upon
thinkers and city workers; yet,
In a sound body, such a strain is
TO be welcomed; for it forces the
intellect to keener, quicker in
sight, and makes the vision more
eagle-like in its sweep of things
that lie before it, done or to be
done or to be safely left undone.

No sane man fools that ba 90

No sane man feels that he can
do all things equally well, yet it
is the very knowledge of the
thing he cannot do that some
times makes a nan doubt him
self in the thing he is perfectly
we'll able to do. Every true man
must feel that there is one thing
he can do well-chop wood. raise
vegetables, ETC., and he can
sweep his doubts of utility aside.
To harbor self-doubt is to undo
work. Self examination is right
and proper, but it should never
drop the hand nervelessly from
a fit task. 1t ought to be q mor-
al bracer.

One thought intrudes at sight
of every peaceful rural scene
the marvel that human hearts
can get out of tune when all is
so lovely around. 1t seems nat.
ural to think of evil coming forth
from the crowded purlieus of city
tenements, and yet there grow
often the choicest flowers of
clean manhood and virtuous
womanhood. But in the country
it seems as though all should be
grand and wholesome. The con-
clusion is this: We are not clay
to be fashioned simply by the
mould into which we are drop
ped. Circumstances are a chal-
lenge to effort instead of aprison.

The Scriptures say that out of
the same mouth can proceed bles-
sing and cursing. | tcan. Woman
exempli6es it. Woman is the
companion of man in bestiality.
Yet woman is the moral safe
guard of the human race. A bad
woman has great power, a good
woman has greater. Words fail
to tell all that a good woman
means to the little world of one
man. The thought of her, lofty
ia ideas and sweet in impulse,
can make a man leave the bad
and cleave to the good; to come
into her presence sets his fcver-
ish pulse to quieter rhythm.

The arrival of nearly one mil
lion emigrants in a year is food
for thought, if not, indeed, cause
for disquiet. One view, however,
must appeal to all who think.
The greatness of this great land
has been rendered possible by
the floods of foreigners. If we
now bar out, it must be for some
better reason than disfavor, else
we truly kick the ladder that
raised us. Absence of money
should not necessarily turn back
aliens, though it is the easiest
and LATEST argument. The test
should be-intelligent under
of the majesty of law
and a willingness to work for
good wages.
