THINK BIG THINGS.
Give Your Imagination Play and Try to
Live Up to Your Dreams.

Give Your Imagination Play and Try ia
Live Up to Your Dreams.
Isn't 1t true that the only thing which
makes it possible for us to perform the
daily drudgeries of life is the hope
for better things which blooms in our
hearts?
Hope is romance. Ambition is ro-
nance. All the fine. true inspirations
of life are romantic. Romance leads
to achievement, unless 1t blossoms In
tie mind Of a lazy, shiftless creature
who is incapable Of action.
The man who leads a forlorn hope is
romantic. The hero who gives his life
fighting a dread disease to which he
succumbs, but against which he has
insured humanity. is romantic. Ro-
nance is the thing which makes 1t
worth while for men to sacrifice ma
terial comforts and die on strange
fields of honor.
In a materialistic world, where we
have to deal with the facts of earning
our living and fighting for place and
position. the thing which lifts us above
blind instinct is romance. Cherish
your dreams, for they give you a
glimpse Of beauty and make you will
ing to struggle over cruel mountains
and harsh plains to the pot Of gold at
the rainbow's end. Dreams give res
pite from dreary reality and urge on
to all that Is big and fine.-Exchange

And the Danger That May Come With
Undue Love Of Wealth.

UNIQUE Love 81 wealth.
It Is convenient to have money. We
all see many ways In which we would
like to use II. But when we have
money we are all apt to wish 1t just
little more. Who Is to say what is the
exact amount 1t Is right that we should
possess? Wishes, tastes, desires, DIFF
fer. We ourselves do not know what
our limit should be.
With too much money one Is likely
to become conceited, to lose sympathy
and be hard hearted and more than
likely regardless Of the means he takes
to add to his store If he has too little
he may be envious of others, embitter-
ed toward society, tempted to dishon-
esty, or there may be real suffering
for need of what money can buy. No
one, not even the man In prison cell.
can live in any degree of comfort with
out money. 1t is necessary to life.
Yet there are many things Of greater
value than money, things that money
cannot buy, that are necessary to our
welfare. Undue love Of money is a
poison in the soul, eating out what Is
of most worth. We may pay too high
price for its acquisition. We should
Judge our desire for money by our
purpose, our motive In wanting 1t.

we choose to use it.-Milwaukee Jour-
