GETTING On in Life.

Someone whose hair was growing
iron-gray said: Il am getting on in
life" His friend who knew him
very well, had his doubts. He mis-
took getting on in years for getting
on in life. He was morally and spir-
itually just about where he had been
so years before. Nobody gets on in
life except those that achieve spirit
ually. When boyhood's bad temper
persists into manhood, when one is ir
ritable, disobliging, selfish. naughty.
proud, self-sufficient, immoral, goddess.
one should not talk about getting on
in life, even if one is as rich as Croe-
sus. To get on in life is o rise in
moral stature. 1t Us to have a soul
big enough to love and admire without
envy, to be content with treasures of
the mind, to set character first of
all. The man who is ''rich in faith"
gets on. The others drift down the
years, or accumulate great posses
sions, but in the essential things, the
things of eternity, they are water
logged and stationary.
