LIFE ON EASY STREET.
Ht In an Ideal Place and Worth striv-
ing For.

ing E0Es
There are more strong limbed, cleal
headed. brave hearted people living on
Easy street than anywhere else In this
broad land. and their prime condition
is the natural consequence Of living
there, for, although you may not have
thought OF it, there is a close relation.
ship existing between good health and
the consciousness of getting on well In
life. You can see this for yourself II
you win note how strong man droops,
like frost nipped flower, who by some
mistake loses his position, his possess
sicns or the esteem Of his fellows, one
or all. Shylock made a hard bargain
with borrower, and in his effort to
foreclose the bond lost his cash and
won the contempt and scorn of all men.
Mental disturbance followed. including
physical III being. and, staggering away
from the judges bench and clutching
at the air, he cried, 81 am not well!'
But you need not go back so far to get
an illustration
And on the other hand you can see
by observing for yourself how the gain,
or even the anticipated gain, of home
on Easy street will make a sick man
well, quicken dying hopes into life and
change the water Of sorrow into the
wine of Joy. Recent literature has re-
minded US how a happy turn in the
tide of the affairs Of Josiah Wedgwood,
afterward to become the worlds great
pioneer pottery artist and inventor
raised him from an invaIid's couch and
started him upon the road to affluence
and distinction among England's in
dustrial princes Similarly Mary Woll-
stonecraft, afterward the mother of the
poet Shelley's wife, Ill from neglect and
discouraged by hardships, was, by the
success Of her modest ventures in lit
erature, heartened to undertake her
great life work, which soon yielded her
a handsome royalty.
Read the story Of Angelina, who
lives on East street and has no desire
to move and lose her clear headedness
and her health. She was engaged to
be married to Allan. He was clerk
receiving $12 per week, and she earned
$85 month teaching school. After
few years Angelina explained her con-
tinued spinsterhood by saying that she
had given Allan time to develop into
a larger money getter, and he had not
done 1t, so she decided against the ad-
visibility Of exchanging an $S5
month position for a $50 month hus.
band. 1t is quite true that when poy-
erty comes In at the door love files out
Uf the window, but it is not because
the Angelinas are without sentiment.
1t is because love cannot feed on in
competency and thrives best on Easy
street.
So the Importance of everything that
will aid any one to get on In the world
is established on a sure foundation
the testimony of facts. We do not ex-
alt mere money getting above those
qualities Of head and heart which
make life worth living, but rather en-
phaslze the honorable getting of 1t as
q conserver of them. And hence the
wisdom of living on Easy street-Cent
