SERMON DRAWN FROM TRAGEDY
Some Of the Causes That Led Up to
WASTED Life"

All the sermons are not preached
from pulpits, although the substance
OF most of the texts may be found in
the scriptures. During the week
man preached sermon with bullet.
He wrote this text first:
"A wasted life-all my own fault
and wasted opportunities"
A wasted life is simply the sum OF
wasted opportunities. Life is made up
Of opportunities, either improved or
neglected. Usually ones surroundings
at the outset determine whether op-
portunities are to be seized and util-
lied as they present themselves, or
are to be allowed to pass by praoti-
cally unnoticed.
The man who left the text before
ending what he considered a wasted
life was the son Of a retired distiller.
Presumably he had in his formative
days. the advantages that wealth can
give-which means that he also had
number of formidable disadvan-
tages. Seldom is it good for boy to
prepare for life in the easy ways fur
nished by practically unlimited sup.
ply OF cash.
1t is assumed, therefore, that this
unfortunate man started with a Sc.
rious handicap-his fathers wealth,
thoughtlessly dispensed, made life too
easy for him, untitled him for the tri
ais Of business or professional ca.
-eer.
So he wasted his opportunities, the
stepping stones to efficiency and
achievement His college training
gave him no advantage; his fathers
wealth was as a milestone around his
neck. The wasted days ran into vast
ed weeks and wasted years; and the
most lamentable thing is that he had
sense enough to know that he was a
failure, yet not sense enough to real
lie that In himself he had the ele-
ments that turn failure into success.
At 50 no life should be called vast
ed, for the best part Of life still lies
ahead. The opportunities that have
come will not present themselves
again; but there will be other oppor-
tunities, and much progress may be
made, even If the first half of life has
been misspent.
Perhaps this mans rich father was
largely to blame for the failure; but,
after all, success is an individual mat
ter. No man can waste another mans
life; he must do this for himself. And
there is no hour from the cradle to
the grave when he may not stop the
wasting = without self-destruction =
and make the rest of his life. be 1t
hours or years, useful to himself and
to his fellows.-Chicago Post.

When Ell Menebhi was chief min

OPPORTUNITY MISSED BY CAR
In His Weakness He Alienated Most
Powerful Supporters.

William T. Stead writes Of the czar
of Russia: when Nicholas II. came
to the throne he was a young man OF
ga raw and inexperienced youth un.
accustomed to the exercise Of respon-
sible authority but given to indulge in
idealistic aspirations as to what he
might be able to do for Russia.
When the premature death of his ia
Their summoned him to the throne he
was weighed down, not unnaturally,
by sense Of his own incapacity to
step at once into the great position Of
Alexander iii. Naturally modest and
retiring, he had never pushed himself
forward. The overshadowing person
alities of his parents did not leave
much room for the development OF
much independence of character.
Hence, when Nicholas became emper.
or he naturally chung to the old adj
visers of his father, the veteran minis
tiers of the crown, and distrusted his
own judgment. Dihident, shy and In.
tensely conscious Of his new post, he
almost of necessity did as he was told.
1t was at this moment that the Philis-
tines fell upon him and carried him
off into captivity.
1T was done in this wise. All the
representatives of the nation, mobiles
mingling with peasants, delegates
from the zemstvos with the mayors Of
great cities, were gathered together in
January, 1894, in the winter palace to
greet their new sovereign. Such a
scene of loyal enthusiasm had not
been witnessed in Russia in the life
time of generation. The advent of a
new and youthful emperor had revived
the hopes of the nation. The assem-
blage in the winter palace was COM
posed of men boiling over with en-
thusiasm, full of exuberant loyalty,
prepared to welcome with ELUSIVE
gratitude a single kind and generous
word from the lips of the new mon
arch. When Nicholas II. entered the
hall a profound stiffness fell upon the
throng. Advancing into their midst
he stopped and, standing hat in hand,
he spoke to his subjects in clear, ring
ing tones. At first he used the ordi-
nary words of courtesy, but then ne
declared in words that bit like fire into
the hearts Of his audience that the
hopes which some Of the zemstvos had
expressed we're idiotic dreams and
that he was resolved to maintain in
tact his autocratic power.
at was set lesson, learned by rote
and spoken with the mechanical pre-
cision Of photograph. When 1t was
over the emperor turned and left the
hall with all the relief Of schooiboy
who had spoken his piece and finished
his lesson. But If the effect of that
blighting speech was evil in the ma.
ton 1t had still more disastrous re-
suits for the emperor. The words
which had been put into his mouth OPP
Grated like one of the magic formula
which in fairy tales suddenly trans
forms palace into prison and ban
ish the hero far away into the heart
Of an enchanted forest where he must
sleep unseen until the hour of his de. I
liverance. He had alienated the only
force which would have given him
strength to- assert himself against the
bureaucracy

"ANY boy" says Ben Murdoch,
"who tumbles out of bed of morn
ings whistling OF singing, who
does not forget to wash his face
and hands, and one who can put
on his clothes quickly, dance out
to do his chores and returns to his
breakfast with a cheerful laugh
and a kind word for everybody;
who is ready to help his parents
without growing; who is kind to
his brothers and sisters; who has
something to do every day, and
does it we'll, will, in a very few
years be one of the big men in the

On the eve of his departure for
Europe, says the Philadelphia
Record, Richard G. Kerens ex-
planned to a New York reporter
that the Republicans carried Mis-
souri, last fall because the Demo-
Gratis had imposed a State tax on
beer. He believed, however, that
the tax would remain and the State
would continue on the Republican
side. This does not seem entirely
consistent; but the most interest,"
ing of Mr.. Kerens' remarks is that
the brewers who advanced money
to the State Republican chairman
undertook to get him elected
United States Senator with a view
to having a representative in the
Senate. In spite of Niedringhaus'
defeat, it appears from Mr.. Kerens'
statement that the brewers have
got possession of the Republican
party of Missouri, and if that party
shall remain in power it may be
attributed to it's alliance with malt.
