CERTAIN MENTAL INJURY SURE.
EVEN WHERE IT LEADS
TO SUCCESS.
But Once In Many Times Do Mistakes
Lead to Any Kind Of Success
Always Essential Differ
ence Between Right
and Wrong.

The error by which we profit is one
of the strange freaks Of events. 1t
is easy to accept the benefit. but 1t
is not SO easy to avoid the mental
injury. We are elated when we
should still be provoked. Even profit
must needs steal upon us unawares
and break through our incompetence.
We succeeded not by our intelligence,
but by our ignorance. writes the Rev.
Emory J. Haynes in the Chicago Jour
nal.
Any Ounce could have been caught
that way by good providence. Even
the success should make us inwardly
ashamed. And 1t is the last thing to
boast of. Yet We are compelled to
wear the honors in public. We hest
tate whether to confess to our en-
poyer. whether to whisper the facts
to our best friend and act the false
before other people. or to go about
explaining
Beneficial errors are sinister in the
encouragement Of loose methods. The
spoiled child Of nature grows In pre-
sumption. There Is just one stern
way to deal with mistakes. and that
is to reprobate them. II we stumbled
upon good thing, still the mind that
did not stumble and yet missed the
good thing. while walking with II
manly tread, is far better situated
For profitable errors are vastly in the
minority.
The strong and steady footstep will
go further. There is measureless
danger in thinking it might happen
that way again. Two errors, plus and
minus. balance Just once In a mil
lion timess Put 1t in that ratio and
YOU are safe. 1t is right to accept
the fruits OF investigation. which We
call discovery, with humble gratitude
and self-encouragement. in this sense
about all our great inventions have
been more or less stumbled upon. No
one knows this better than the great
inventors and discoverers themselves
and they have almost uniformly ac-
knowledged 1t. They were in the
way Of duty. In the line of search.
and the reward came as revelation

JOKE By THE WIND.

A strange freak Of the whirlwind In
Its tantrums was witnessed near Neuf.
chatel. Switzerland. some time ago. A
large field Of barley had been reaped,
and the work Of harvesting had Just
begun. The first wagon was being
loaded when sudden whirlwind al
most In an instant swept the whole
field clear. The grain rose to great
height In the air, was then turned
over, and finally disappeared in the
distance. coming down in quite a diff
ferent district. So sudden was the oc-
currence that everything had disap-
peared, while the amazed harvesters
stood with their implements In their
hands. From the whole field not SO
much as one cartload could be Sc
cured.

given as the cause of the suicide.
