TUG BOATS AND BARGES.

Yesterday, as 1 crossed the East
| river bridge in New York city, my
attention was attracted to numerous
| little tug boat rushing along, putting
out smoke in a jerky, energetic way.
They seemed almost human as they
pulled great barges loaded with freight
of all kinds. Each one was headed for
some destination; losing no time in
getting there. They made me think
OF busy, ambitious men and women,
hurrying on 70 fulfill their destinies;
men and women trying to reach some
definite goal, but guiding and helping
| others on their way
Then as I looked at the heavy lum-
! bering barges, depending entirely on
the tugs for getting anywhere, I
thought how typical they were Of an
other class Of people-the men, wom-
en-, boys and girls who wait for some
body with an idea or plan Of action to
drag the n along They talk about hard
luck. They envy others their success.
They wish they had their chances, but
they themselves never make any move
or take any initiative. They have no
ambition. They never stop to realize
that no one can drag US 10 any posi-
ton in life worth having. Some one
may give Us a little impetus, but il will
not take us far We will stop mid
stream, until some other tug boat
comes along to give Us a tow.
There are many willing. helpful
tug boats about Think OF the teach

pupils, barges laden with talent, per-
haps genius. but who are too lazy and
lacking in ambition 70 get up steam

little work as possible in order 20 get

opportunities" he said.
Yes" she replied, I always regret
having shirked everything L could dur

How many mother tug boats there
are, pulling and tugging at children
trying TO make them get the best
there is out Of life: trying 10 inspire
them with ambition. Many times the
mothers bring them into a harbor OF
some great success, but AT other times
the load IS greater than they can pull
so they must leave them mid-stream.
Let US give thanks 10 the tug boats
who come 10 our rescue. with an en-

London.-The Copenhagen CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail asserts
that Baron Burian, the/ Austro- Hun
garian foreign minister, at his recent
meeting with the German emperor
drew doleful picture of the plight of
the dual monarchy and said the time
had arrived for the Germanic powers
to consider most seriously the possi-
bilities for tolerable peace.
The Daily Mail attaches great i'm
portance to the dispatch.
The dispatch says:
From a most trustworthy and we'll.
Informed source in Berlin I received
the following statement regarding the
negotitions between the German
statesmen and Baron Burian, who re-
Gently visited the German chancellor
In Berlin, and Emperor William at
the army headquarters In France.
Baron Burian, whose sole object
1t is to save what can be saved of the
dual monarchy, represented to the
Germans that the situation in Austria
Is most precarious and that IL the
Russian advance on Budapest is not
stopped the effect may very probably
be the downfall of Austria and the
complete collapse OF Hungary, which
must later entail as a logical sequence
also the downfall Of Germany.
