Young man, there Is one thing you
cannot do. You cannot make a sue
cess in life unless you work Older
men than you have tried it and failed.
You cannot loaf around the street
corner. smoke, tell stories and sponge
on someone else without making a
failure Of life. You must learn a trade
or get into some honest business. If
you don't you will become a chronic
loafer, and there is no place in the
world for loafers. The ripe fruit is at
the top Of the tree and you must climb
II you get 1t or some smart man Will
pluck it from you. DO something, no
matter how small or how low the
wages, il will be a starter. Help your
self and others will help you. There Is
no royal road to success; will, grit
and endurance are the qualities that
lead to it.

Profanity never did any man the
least good No man is richer, or hap
pier or wiser for it. 1t commends no
one to society; it is disgusting to the
refined and abominable to the good.
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1918-12-05

People who don't mind their own
business, bring more misery into
families, societies and churches than
everything else. They turn the pleas
ant peaceful stream of good will into
ground where angels would even fear
to tread. Now, minding ones own
business is the very best remedy for
the itching ears that are never salts
fed with hearing and the busy tongue
that hurries to speak cruel words.
Winding your own business will turn
your attention to self, and you will
forget to watch so closely the short
comings of others; it will make peace
full homes, happy neighbors, ard quiet
oonsciences; and you will be able to
realize and more fully comprehend
the truth spoken in holy writ
Blessed are the Peacemakers.'

smiles that light outward their sunny

privilege of martyrdom But he
lightly dimisses this, as an outworn
necessity. In the face of the moral
lapse of the whole world before our
very eyes, and in view of the fact
that only now the statesmen Of the
Allied Powers are beginning to
translate the great ethical precepts
of our Prophets into the practical
planks of their political platforms,

To rehabilitate the prophetic ideal
of social justice, DR.. Adler admits,
might be the real mission of the
Jews. "Were not the Prophets of
Israel the great preachers Of right
eousness in the sense Of justice? Did
they not affirm that religion consists
in justice and in it's concomitant,
mercifulness Did not Isaiah say:
"When We come to tread my courts,
who has demanded this of you? Go
wash you, make you clean Put
away the evil that is in your hands;
cease to do evil; learn to do good.
That We let the oppressed go free
and break every yoke"
These are solemn, marvellous
words, assured1y!' says DR.. Adler,
but they do. not suffice for him.
He considers their idea Of justice
as negative rather than positive. It
is based on the idea of "non-viola-

SERVANT" AN ABUSED WORD
President of United States, Heads OF
Banks, Ministers, Physicians,
Are in Same Glass.

It is pity that we have allowed OPP
probrium to attach to the good old
word servant" opprobrium utterly I'M
merited. Talk about "help," or the lat
est equivalent, maid used quite in
appropriately, says the Youths Com
panion, does not alter circumstances
in the least, nor is there any reason
why we should wish them altered.
Every one who is worth anything is
servant The merchant serves his
customers. If he serves them not well,
they discharge him. The lawyer serves
his clients, the minister his parishion-
ers, the doctor his patients. The presi-
dent of bank is q servant, and so Is
the president of railway. The presi-
dent of the United States is the hired
servant of the people of the United
States, and few servants in any occu-
patton are more abused by their mas
tiers.
Service, well and faithfully per-
formed, is the only real dignity, and
all the outward pomp and insignia of
rank are but badges of service, and
disgraceful if they are not earned.
Service is life. It is only when we
are doing something to serve the large
movement of the world what we are
entitled to live in it, that we really do
live in it. Life is measured by useful
ness. OF all the varied affection that
swift-footed age can bring, none is
more oppressive than the sense of di-
minished capacity for service.
Not to be ministered unto, but to
minister not to be served, but to serve.
is the utterance of the highest author
fly in spiritual matters. There is but
one disgrace connected with service of
any kind, and that is to serve i'll. Let
us perform whatever service falls to
us, large or small, high or low, with all
the zeal and all the strength that is in
us. Then we shall be sure that when
we depart we shall be missed, If only
little; and there is no more soliG
satisfaction in the world than that.

RraziIians Are Courteous.

Brazilians are among the. most
suavely courteous and considerate
people in the world. Etiquette is a
matter of great formality. Acquaint-
ances raise their hats to one another
in passing, no matter how often they
may meet in the course of a day. A
crowded street car is full Of murmured
apologies from those getting on and
off, The Brazilians pride themselves
on having inherited the finest tradi-
tons Of manners and artistic feeling
from the Latin nations of southern
Europe. Courteous, temperamental
and courageous, the typical Brazilian
is quick to resent any encrOachment
on his rights and slow to abandon the
fight to maintain them.

One of the oldest illustrated books
is an edition of "Aesop's Fables" pub
lished abou. 1471. 1t has initial letters
Of great interest, and upward Of 100
very curious wood cuts. The copies
which have survived the centuries are
bound In thick oak boards, covered
with stamped leather. There was q
book published in Florence only five
years after the Aesop which had three
copper-plate engravings, and one OF
the most remarkable features Of the
early illustrated works is the grace and
excellent fancy Of their tail-pieces and
type, and the fresh look which the ink
has.
