TRUTH.


There's truth that most people find
out sooner or late, and that is that
great duties, perhaps. only called for
once or twice in lite time are ever go
much easier than the little ones that
come every day, for the reason that
when big thing happens there is a
certain amount of excitemt mt about it
that largely helps us to carry it thru
while about every day happenings there
is no exciten ent at all. There are so
m; ny of us who stand idly by waiting
for some great event to change our
lives, never troubling about the little
chances that are slipping by-ah, SO
fast. And perhaps the great event
never comes; and then one day we
awake to the fact that we have wasted
our lives, neglected al the chances
that have been given to us, and are
near the end of the journey and have
nothing to show for our lives. We
have neg'e .tel our one tasnt because
we were looking out for and expecting
the five or six Il at never came to us.

also that which it fears; it re aches the
height of its cherished aspirations; it

their circumstances, but are unwilling
to improve themselves; they therefore
