The Philosophy of Work.
ON the Cincinnati Enquirer

from the CINCINNATI Enquirer.
There is a growing tendency manifested
In various ways to regard work as merely
a means of reaching a state of idleness.
The prevailing mental attitude seems to
be that the only standard of success is
riches, and that the only way to attain hap
piness is with the least possible exertion
to become man of leisure. and to be able
to dawdle through life with nothing to do.
1t requires but little examination of the real
basis of happiness, or knowledge of human
nature ard the conditions under which we
are placed where we are, to show the false
ness of this position.
Man is constituted an active being, seek
ing expression of his character and tastes,
and, IL he would continue to exist and to
progress, must labor. His highest dignity
lies in honest faithful labor. and through
1t alone can he find scope for the exercise
of his best faculties for the adequate
expression of his individuality. When we
linger in admiration before great work
of art it is not so much for what Is rep
resented as because we recognize that the
artist has put into 1t something of himself.
showing us how some one who sees better
than we has looked at something, and the
loving. careful, painstaking toll he has be-
slowed in representing 1t. Nowhere does
than in the daily task. IL matters not kSw

source does there come so genuine salts
