Wrong Standard by Which the World
IL Prone to Measure Men.
Tie money craze, or tendency to
commentaries the ideal, Is found in all
walks of life. Never before were SO
many clcrgymcn, especially young
clergymcn, leaving the pulpit to 20 in
to business. The great commercial
prizes are so tempting that their own
pitiful salaries look contemplate in
comparison. There are clergymcn in
the American pulpit preaching FOR n
few hundred dollars year who know
perfectly well, and everybody else
Knows, too, that they could make many
times us much money In business Gu
rcers. Many OF them do not see why
they should not become rich and pow
erful. They do not understand why
using this money making capacity is
not as Legitimate for them as for 9TH
ers. In other words, there Is Il power
full temptation today for clergyman
to turn his creative faculties into mon
ey making channels
Many Of our lawyers are looking for
big foes rather than for grcat legal
acunen or high standing ut the bur.
They know that lawyers are envicd
to-day not so much us members Of n
great and learned profession, uphold
ers OF the majesty and justice Of tho
law. as because many Of them make
Il great deal OF money from their pr,lc-
ttcc. They know, too that they are
ranked by fellow lawyers largely In
proportion to their ability to get big
fees. 1t is well known that some of
the men who get enormous fees and
become milliUnnlrcs are not great law.

Talents and con 1f,,lenc.

a single talent man. supported by
great self confidence, will achieve more
than ten talent man who does not
believe in himself. The mind cannot
act with vigor Ill the presence Of
doubt. ~ wavering mind makes q
wayering execution. There must be
certainty, confidence and assurance or
there can be no efficiency. An uncdu-
Gated man who believes in himself ana
who has faith that he can do the thing
nc undertakes often puts to shame the
average college bred man, whose over
culture and wider outlook have some
times bred Increased scnsitivencss and
lesscning of self confidence, whose
decision has bcen weakened by con
slant weighing of conflicting theories
and whose prejudlccs are always open
to conviction Success.

In the Tennessee mountains lived a
little hunter named Hiram Gates. Al
though small In size. Hiram was noted
for his bravery for miles around In that
section OF the country, where courage
was common asset Once while hunt
Ing he tracked bear to small cave.
Now, n man hasn't one chance In a
million lighting q bear in close quar-
tiers, but this fact didn't deter Hiram
for minute. Throwing down his gun,
lie put his knife between his teeth and
crawled into tho dark holo after tho
animal.
By the greatest of good fortune he
succeeded In killing 1t, for the reason
that the cave was so small that tho
bear couldn't turn around to defend
himself. Otherwise there probably
would have been different story.
Hiram skinned the bear and then
went home, where he explained the
manner Of the killing to his father.
The old man listened quietly until tho
tale came to nm end and then, in n
high pitched. quaverlng voice, said:
We'll. Hiram. I like brave man as
