w EAATH.

Wealth cannot confer great
ness, for nothing can make that
great which the decree Of nature
has ordained to be little. The
bramble may be placed In a hot
bed. but can never become an
oak. Even royalty itself is not
able to give that dignity which
II happens not to find, but OPP
presses feeble minds, though it
may elevate the strong. The
world has been governed in the
name of kings, whose existence
has scarcely been perceived by
any real effects beyond their
own palaces. When, therefore.
the desire of wealth is taking
hold of the heart let us look
around and see how 1t operates
upon those whose industry or
fortune has obtained it. When
we find them oppressed with
their own abundance, luxurious
without pleasure, idle without
ease, impatient and querulous in
themselves. and despised or hat
ed by the rest Of mankind. we
shall soon be convinced that if
the real wants of our condition
are satisfied there remains little

desired with eagerness.-Samuel
Johnson.
