Wearied OF Success.

The mysterious disappearance OF
reputable and successful business man
Of Lafayette, Ind, FIVE years ago. and
his recent temperance, with the ex-
PLANTATION that he had simply grown
tired of everything" and sought a
new life, does not appear so strange
to the heart as it does to the mind.
Such feeling is incomprehensible to
the intellect. yet it is more or less
familiar one to those hidden depths of
human nature where lie the real life
forces Are there not times, oftener
perhaps than we will admit. when the
most favored and happiest of us be-
come tired OF everything"
Is IL uncommon for successful men
whose business has become thorough
~ systematized and. whose work has
become routine to long for the stress
and strain. the risks and the spirit of
adventure that gave glorious exhilara-
ton in their earlier days of struggle?
Paradoxical as il may seem. il is SIM
pie truth that We weary of pleasures
and ease sooner than of sorrows and
toll
This Indiana man had a prosperous
business. a comfortable fortune, pleas
ant family relations and the respect of
his neighbors. and yet he grew weary.
Wealth and good repute are exter-
mails. There is another world in which
a man really lives-the world of his
ideals. and when these have dulled
and leveled down to commonplace and
aspiration has atrophied and effort
ceased. his surroundings. however IA
vorable. turn into the tomb of soul
that is dead.
Some may say this Lafayette man
was crazy. Maybe he was For the
matter of that. whose mind is not more
or less unbalanced? But the real sig
nificance lies in the fact that most of
the insane come from the ranks of
those whose success" has caused their
degeneracy into idleness of spirit.
