1.-THE SIMPLE ANNALS. >

We want to hear less OF the man
who began poor and amassed riches
observes modern philosopher. and
more about the man who lived unsul-
lied though died poor"
Words htly spoken
Stories about men who were born
of poor but honest parents" and
"ho got rich. are plenty. But news
papers and magazines do not tell
much OF them who have perse-
vered in their honor and died poor
or course there is a reason
Men who succeed in getting rich
are exceptions to the general rule
md therefore notable The value of
news story is determined by its
niqueness. \ phenomical career ex-
cites interest
The average man lives and dies
comparatively poor. He is not so built
hat he can accumulate money You
could not pass enough statutes To
make him rich. The exceptional man
not fill the law books full enough to
prevent him from accommodating
wealth. Money seems to stick to her
fingers.
The life stories OF men who have
lived unsullied lives and died poor
are common. Here is one from real
Ilife:
This man was generous-hearted
lie never aspired TO be rich. All he
asked OF the world was a decent liv-
ing worthily earned. a roof tree and
clothes and food for his family. In
all his life he never earned so much
as thousand dollars i'm a year Out
OF his modest salary he saved enough
to pay for his home. He kept his
children i'm school until they gradual
ed in the high school. He was hon
orable in all his dealings lie paid
/ his debts. He worked hard and
/ spent little in luXuries. He helped
his fellows when he could. He sell
dom complained of his lot. He put by
a few dollars for his old age Never
did he knowingly commit crime
against the state or humanity. He
laughed often and loved much. And
when he died men said, He was an
honest man and a good citizen
Nothing startling about such a
story. nothing in it to exploit. But it
is typical of the average man OF this
country the salt of the earth.
Let no man think he is a failure
4 he has lived an honest and a use
full life Ignoble success-and the
success of many rich is OF that sort
is nothing more than successful fail

True riches consists in life of
integrity and good influence. 1t has a
higher meaning, a deeper Significance
than the mere getting of money.

CONSCIENCE sMITES HIM

A peculiar case is reported from
Miller county, which shows that a
man may secure vindication at the
hands of the law for some crime
which he has committed, but it is
hard to smother the conscious.
ness of the wrong within himself.
John Whitehead, young far
mer living in that county, was
placed in Jail at Texarkana last
Saturday at his own request, lest
he should be overtaken with an
attack of lunacy and harm some
one.
Some eight years ago he shot
and killed a young man for some
wrong which he fancied had been
done to his sister. Later he be-
came possessed of the idea that the
ghost of his victim was shadowing
him, and only waiting for an OPP
perfume time to kill him. He had,
after hard fought legal battle,
been acquitted of the charge of
murder, but the spook of the man
he had shot continued to haunt
him, he said. Finally be became
crazed, and was jailed till he re-
covered.
Later he had another attack !,
and was placed in jail at his own
request, and when the last attack
came upon him he went at once to
his neighbors and besought them
to put him where he could do no
harm, in case his old malady ac-
tually came upon him.
