OUTWARD BOUND.
Reasons Why a Man Should Not Be
Possessed by His Possessions.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
All life is a voyage. Our ancestors
and our circumstances to some extent
determine for US the baggage we shall
take: but for most of the reflections
and selections we are responsible our
selves. Is 1t not curious that the anx-
iety Of many is to load them
selves down with all manner of incum-
brances so that, slaves to their own be-
longings. they cannot move when and
where they would? To collect the use
less against a day OF possible utility,
we save and hoard and scrimp for an
hour of lavish spending that never
comes: we deny ourselves and the dark
ness overtakes us. still clutching and
grubbing and refusing proffered
crowns. The meanest life of all is that
which takes in order to have, not to
give Fervent accumulators, we ad-
here like hchens to material immensi-
ties that possess us. even while we
fantastically ina gine we can move
them and carry them with us when we
go. The self-made man of business
pies dollar on dollar. then puts stone
on stone to erect a grand house and
adds acre to acre. with a regal disre-
gard or cost, around it, And Just when
ne looks with a swelling spirit on all
tnls Babylon he has bulded, with its
iIdhSiiS SdTueHS ana It's ShrlneS and
fountains. one swing of the sword of
the great angel cuts him down; there
Is no privilege granted him that is not
the possession of the day laborer who
lamps the track or carries a hod.
The more man Is possessed by his
possessions, the less he is inclined to heed
the call to any trail except that to which
the dollar sign stands as a fingerpost He
does not care to risk vast interests: he
does not want to jeopardize his health
or incur the personal discomfort. His
habit is fixed, his phlegmatic temperature
is determined, he has outgrown the age
OF adventure, and cannot know the fr-
rational and surprising fever in the blood.
The senatorial wisdom is nothing to be
scorned: there are those whose business
1t is to stay and promote the social
solidarity: and there are firing lines in
business or in domesticity as well as in
war; But let man who elects to stay
put" be sure of his reason; let him know
that he is stationary because duty, and
not love of selfish ease, constrains him.
