KiPLINe ON WEALTH.
columbus CitIzen.)

Rudyard Kipling, who has written
20 books, is on record for only one
speech. II was a good speech and Il
made deep impression on the young
men of McGill university, Montreal,
who heard It.
Kipling, like other men of clear
vision, is concerned about the undue
place the pursuit of wealth has in mod.
ern life. Business to earn money is
only the machinery of life, not life IT.
self He who lives solely to earn
money is In the same clas as the man
who lives only that he may eat or the
woman whose sole purpose in life Is
TO wear fine clothes. We eat and we
wear clothes that we may live for bet.
ter things and IL we earn money 1t
should be with some nobler purpose
In view.
Look about you, advised Kipling,
and sooner or later you will see some
man TO whom the idea of wealh as
mere wealth does not appeal. Con.
tlnuing, he said:
II advise you to watch this man
closely, for he will presently demon.
strae to you that money dominates
| everybody except the man who does
not want money. You may meet that
man on your farm, in your village, or
in your legislature. But be sure that,
whenever or wherever you meet him,
as soon as II comes to direct Issue
between you, his little finger will be
thicker than your loins. You will go
in fear Of him; he will not go In fear
Of you. You will do what he wants;
he will not do what you want Yoa
will find you have no weapon In your
armory with which you can attack
him; no argument with which you can
attack him; no argument with which
you can appeal TO him. Whatever you
gain, he will gain more.
II would like you TO study that man.
would like You better to he that man.
because from the lower point OF Wow
II doesn't pay to be obsessed by the de-
sire for wealth for wealths sake. II
more wealth is necessary to you, for
purposes not your own, use your left
hand to acquire IL, and keep your right
for your proper work In life. II you
employ both arms In that game you
will be in danger OF STOPPING; in dan.
ger also of losing your soul"
Kipling is right. The world is full
OF splendid things for the men who
will stand upright and who will not
stoop.
