HAVING A PURPOSE IN LIFE
Unless One Aims at Certain Goal, He
10 Likely to Drift With Current
and Be Swept Out to Sea.

To have purpose in life and stick
to it has long been cardinal prin-
ciplc of right living, and it does not
seem that any man or woman could
ever lack real object for which to
strive. It is hard work which tells
in this world, not merely the perfume
tory efforts with which so many per-
sons hope to win success. Unless we
are animated by the desire to achieve
a certain goal, we shall most probably
only drift with the current and in the
end be swept out to sea along with
other wreckage, says the Charleston
News. The longer we live the more
this fact Is impressed upon our minds.
but 1t frequently takes some great
emergency to bring it home to, US in
an unmistakable way. OF course,
there are men and women everywhere
in all walks of life who are actuated
by noble impulses and lofty ambitions,
and who, because they persist in work
ing for the attainment of a high ideal,
are doing much for the uplift of the
world. On the other hand, observa
ton clearly shows that not all men
and women recognize their full duty In
life, Such persons are, as a rule, far
removed through fortunate circum-
stances from the necessity of having
to work for their living; their wealth
and high worldly position have placed
them beyond the threat of privation,
and they are content to stand by idly
and let their neighDors do the nsces-
sary work of the world.

Chances.

Wherever people come together the
air Is full of glances and yet for the
most part they are stolen, for the un-
written law in such cases is that one
person shall not look openly into the
eyes of another unless some mutual
acquaintance has uttered the meaning
less but extraordinary important
words of introduction. Perhaps 1t is
because custom demands that among
strangers glances of shy appraisal or
frank interest must be stolen that they
are so intense, so furtive and, in the
main, SO Interesting. The principal diff
f1culty in learning about them from
observation is, Of course, that in order
to observe one must Of necessity steal
q few glances. What one can learn in
brief glance is little, but with prac-
tice it becomes greater, and skilled

he became completely uprooted, came
