Is the old 1dage, which IS the themo
Of Ingalls, poem. that "Opportunity
knocks but once at every mans door
a true one?
| Or
| Is it true, as some one has said that
Opportunity knocks at our doors ey-,
cry day, but that few Of US take the
trouble to GET UP AND OPEN THE
DOOR?
There is the old illustration of New
ton and the falling apple. Newton got
up and opened the door of his mind.
Opportunity came in IN the guise Of
an idea. And that idea changed the
worlds thinking.
Many of us mufie our ears when
Opportunity knocks.
Napoleon never did that Opportu-
nifty never knocked at his door in vain.
His thinking was always ahead of his
foes thinking He got up in the morn
ing before the enemy got up-if he
| had to stay up all night. If the other
general had d larger army, Napoleon
segregated it into sections and whip
ped the sections one at time.
| Opportunity is an early riser.
! Ethan Allen took TiconderOga while
| the garrison was asleep and did it in
1.-The name of Jehovah and the Cont
mental congress-" He had no author
| ity from either But he had his op-
portunity.
Opportunity is a great friend of US
| if we recognize it.
Opportunity changes the battle Of
Winchester from defeat to victory; it
| is the Funston that obliterates rivers
from the map; it puts to rout the
armies of the aliens; it turns the flank
of the foe by stratagem; it controls
circumstances and makes a way for
itself.
Young man
Opportunity is rapping. Keep your
ears .opent
More than that, young man
Keep your EYES open. You may
be able, to- see Opportunity before it
knocks at your door-while it knocks
at some other mans door, Let the
other man turn over in bed and pay
no attention when Opportunity comes
a-calling. Let him shut his eyes and
go it blind.
Sheridan never did that
Nor Peter Cooper.
Nor Andrew Carnegie. o
The successful ones. every time and
everywhere. kept eyes and ears bots
open, everywhere and all the time.
OPPORTUNITY PRESSES TILE
BUTTON. YOU MUST De- THE
REST.

He was of the Lincoln type.
Much has been written about the
late Governor John A., johnson of Min
nesota, but not too much, because
Here was man whose entire ca

ton to American youth His was not
a mere money success.
Let US quit holding up as examples
mere moneycrats-little less than bust
ness brigands. Let US ask of the would
be patterns. How did you succeed?
The life Of the Iamented Johnson
answers that he won upward fairly
and without guile.
Physically he was much like Lincoln
"a face with network of lines, put
there early by the vicissitudes of hun
ger, deprivation and shame. Like Lin
coin, he was tall-talI enough to be
above the Tags of political life And.
like Lincoln. he was ungainly and
walked with a sort of awkward sham
BILE.
And there were in the story of the
boy johnson all the hardships and sor-
did surroundings of the young Lin
coin.
Here was a boy whose father was
the town drEnkard. Deserted by the
husband, his mother took in washing,
| and John went after these Washings
and delivered them in his little red
wagon. At thirteen years of age he
left school and went to work to help
support the family
In these few sentences is condensed
world of poverty and lack.
Nevertheless, at the age of fifteen he
made the mother sell her washtubs,
and at twenty three he was the editor
and half owner of leading weekly
newspaper.
Then this youthful editor, the son
Of Gustav. and Caroline Johnson. Swed-
ish immigrants, went steadily up in
the esteem Of the people. Hardship
and prfvation, disgrace and worry, had
made Of him an honest. sincere, manly
man.
! Nominated for governor, his oppo
nent spread the story that his father
had died in the pocrhouse, which he
| did. a victim Of alcoholic mania.
/ Like Lincoln when DOUGLAS tauntet
him with his early obscuritY, johnson
made no answer. But the full story
came out, and ii elected Johnson.

VOGUE POINTS.
A Unique Rrooeh-sieeves Now Mark
New Epoch In Dress History.

A brooch made of a lump of coal Is
not as valuable possession as a pin
Of diamonds, but it has the merit Of
rarity. An Englishwoman owns such
brooch, which was carved for her by,a
miner with the aid of a knife and file.
The design is a star showing up
against a rough background.
The new sleeves mark an epoch in
dress history. for little puffs and tiny
rufies again appear on some very
smart frocks. even when the remain
ing portion of the costume is plain.
One attractive dress seen recently had
the upper part of the sleeves made Of
the dress material, which was a lovely

TIE POOR BOYS CHANCE.

An Atchison (Kan.) man has collect.
ed list of thousand. successful men
Of this country.
BY successful menY he does not
mean mere money get5ers, but men
who have added to the worlds capital
of invention, education, art-menl who.
have influenced the world for it's bet
terment.
1t is interesting to know how these
men started in life.
Three hundred began ON the farms.
200 were messenger boys; 200 were
newsboys: 100 worked in Factories; 100
were printers; so worked at railroad
ing.
And of this thousand successful men
how many do you suppose Had wealthy
parents to give them start. in bust
ness?
Just fifty.
Which Is te say the son. of a, reM
family has only fifty chances out of q
| thousand in twenty-to succeed i'm
life.
| And, what is more important
A poor boy has nine hundred ana
fifty chances in a thousand ninety
five chances in a hundred!
/ An eminent speaker was once called
to address the boys of school, nearly
all of whom were rich mems sons. He
began his address by saying he felt
| genuinely sorry for them. He said
they were handicapped in the race of
life because their bills were all paid
by their fathers. The young men We're
astonished and rather resented the
speakers remarks.
But the speaker was right.
Rich mems sons do not discover the
use of steam or the turbine wheel or
the gas engine. Rich mems sons do not
blaze the way for civilization nor dis
cover the poles nor sit at the head of
great institutions Of learning or sci
lence.
The success Of the rich mans son is
| the exception rather than the rule.
The reason?
The boy who is always lifted ovez
the log win never develop the muscle
needed to go over it alone.
Struggle develops strength.
The forcefu1 boy is father to the IA.
nous man.
And so if you are a poor mans son
rejoice in your heritage! Rejoice,
say, and be glad. If.your parents have
given you a. healthy body and clear
morals you can get the rest by going
after it.

TIE H&.SR 10 THE POLE.

| Young man, y3u nave read much
| lately concerning the dash to t1G
pole or the dashes to the pole.
There are some lessons in those be--
roic journeys.
The dashes for the pole were not
made until everything was ready. And
preparation required long look ahead.
The ships that took Peary and Cook
I'D into the arctic eli Gle had to be spe-
Ecially built in order to withstand the
| ice and to provide food and provisions
and apparatus. The clothing must be
| the warmest, the food of proper kind
and the instruments for observation
adapted to northern ATTITUDES. Moth
ing was left to chance.
And when it came to the dash itself
the right sort of sledges and dogs and
portable shelters of silk must be ~"
vided
The explorers had to photograph the
future, as it were, and provide for it.
And in the last stages of the terrible
hike everything except the absolutely
necessary must be left behind. 1t re-
solved itself into a test for the sur
vival of the fittest, both men and dogs.
! They stripped themselves as an ath-
lete strips himself for the final dash.
Well, every young man must find his
north pole!
What l mean is every young man
has something in view that he wants
as badly as Cook and Peary wanted to
| find the pole.
And if he gets what he wants he
must go after it, and intelligently.
Like Cook and Peary, if he is to sue
coed he must prepare a long way
ahead, else when it comes to the dash
he viii have to turn back before he
gets to the ninetieth degree
Health is the very first considera-
ton. Other things being equal, the
; man with the best physique will win
out. And a good physique is not built
up by late hours and dissipation.
And the next important preparation
is education of head and hand and
heart. A sharpened brain, a deft hand
and good morals are all needed in
your search for the pole.
There is ice in the way, young man,
and wide seas and bitter winds. You
will often lose your way, and you
must sometimes stop and take obserya-
tons to know where You are.
And there are others trying to find
your pole hosts of them.
Prepare yourself thoroughly Take
DTeuty of time. Time lost IN DrpYaara-
ton Is gained In the outcome: And
when It comes to the dash strip your
self Of all impedfments and

THE ESKTMOS.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.

Now that the way has been blazed il

matter to reach the pole. And civil.
cation, stopped for time by the arc
tic circle will march ncrthward.
But the Eskimo does not want our
civilization. He is instinctively afraid
lest it may mean the extinction Of his
race
ave do not want your way Of liv-
ing SAYS the Eskimo to the explorer
missionary. st is perhaps good for
you. We are content as it is. Make
us accept your civilization and we will
all PERISH
Whereat we wonder.
These primitive people are so hospi-
table and kind hearted and they have
such hard lines! We long to make
their harsh and forbidding lives easier
and, as we think, happier.
But the Eskimo sits beside his igloo,
that ice hut with just two crude arti-
cles of furniture, the wide family
Sleeping bench and the big oil lamp
stove, and listens to the tribal rumor
of the coming of the white man with
a great fear in his heart.
Well the little brown men" that
stood by Cook and Peary as they have
stood by all the arctic explorers in
their search for the summit of the
world are entitled to lions share of
the honors that have been won, and
their wishes ought to be respected by
the, world.
They are right about it.
Our civilization would ruin them, as
1t has ruined tie aborigines of Amer
lea. Living in the bleak barrens of
the northland, the Eskimo through
centuries of struggle has adopted the
only mode of living that makes his ex-
fstence possible.
And perhaps, after all, we have not
so very much to offer him. His reli-
gton may be crude sort, but practi-
caIly it is the essence Of Christianity.
There are no pauper Eskimos. No
one is rich, and no one is poor. All
things are In common. The wrecked

'Do some people in your land starye

at their great Kindness. The explorer
was compelled to reply that ''some

The explorer found it hard to an

why do you ask us to accept your

too much. They like their country. 1t

their way they are happy and content.
Why disturb them?
The Eskimo only asks to be let alone.
And, alas for him, that is the very
thing the civilized world viii not do.
