TO MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE
Never Impossible to Get What Ono
WantU If Proper Amount Of
Emery Is Put Forth.

There is not dream which may
not come true, if we have the energy
which makes, or chooses, our own
fate. We can always get what we
want, if we will it intensely and per-
sistently enough. Whether we shall
get it sooner or later is the concern
of fate; but we shall get it. 1t may
come when we have no longer any
use for it, when we have gone on
willing it out of habit, or so as not to
confess that we have failed. But it
will come. So few people succeed
greatly because so few people can
conceive a great end, and work to-
wards that end without deviating
and without firing. But we all know
that the man who works for money
day and night gets rich, and the man
who works day and night for no
matter what kind of material power,
gets the power. 1t is the same with
the deeper, more spiritual, as it seems
wagner issues, which make for happi-
ness and every intangible success. 1t
is only the dreams of those light
sleepers who dream family that do
not come true.-Arthur Symons.
