Pluck and Success.

An argument against discourage
ment after repeated failures is offered
by the life of George Frederick Watts,
the great English painter.
That he was quite the most impor-
tant of Great Britain's artists is now
everywhere admitted, yet his merit
was not generally recognized until aft
er he had passed his sixtieth birthday.
Before he died he said, with smile,
that he had never been discouraged
once in spite Of all the unjust criticism
and, more maddening still, the utter
Indifference with which his pictures
were received until after he had begun
to descend the hill toward the valley Of
old age
