Modern Passion for DISPLAY.

1t was a century and a half ago
that Benjamin Franklin wrote that
"idleness and pride tax with a heavier
hand than kings and parliaments.
but his message comes with peculiar
force to the people of this day and
generation. Perhaps idleness is no
greater a vice than in Franklin's time,
but the sort of pride that taxes mems
pocketbooks never before fiourished
as now. The desire Of the poor to
ape the rich, the universal effort and
determination to keep up appearance
for appearance sake, is one of the
curses Of this age. That hollow ap-
pearaLces are but tokens of superfic-
ial minds too few understand. Men
and women of moderate means as
pire to make the same display In
spending money that their more
wealthy neighbors do, and, when ad-
versity comes, finding themselves
with no money saved they realize too
late, as Franklin would say, that they
have paid too dearly for the whistle.
