Arranging Your Fate.

Many parents become much distress
ed upon the question, what trade or
profession they should select for their
boys. Here is bit of wisdom from
Epictetus that may help solve the
problem: First say to yourself what
you would be; and then do what you
have to do" The idea is, you cannot
plan your life from the start. 1t will
get its scope and direction when one
begins his life. What he does is deter
mined by what there is to do and what
is attractive at the time he is called
upon to act.
The only preparation for life is en-
tirely personal-making oneself faith
full, courageous, diligent. self-reliant.
thoughtful, unselfish, in fine, to make
true man of oneself, and then he is
prepared for the conditions that con
front him in the future. If he becomes
farmer, doctor. mechanic, a
banker or what not, he will need in all
these directions manly qualities before
special instruction for the latter takes
wings and flies away at the first temp
tation.
Epictetus has it down fine. "and
then do what you have to do" but
there is no following that advice wisely
unless manhood answers the call. Wait
and see what the world has for you
before you take to a rut. but in the
meantime, recollect that moral quality
is far ahead of expert knowledge

This little eample OF Irish wit was
related at a recent dinner of the

A newly landed son of Erin was
gaping along New York street when
he CHANGED to turn into an office OF n

Gould you be telling what you sell

Certainly" was the retort, uttered
in rather an impatient tone, I'VE sell
