SUCCESS VIA CHARACTER
By Mr.. II. P,

of power and preferment, but their
legs are too weak to take them to it,
and so they pant and wobble and fall,
sometimes a good distance from the
throne, sometimes so near that they
clutch in falling, the heads of the
carved dragons which ornament its
panels.
If the man who Graves money
power and gets it spews his feast,
how sore must be the disappointment
of the man who Graves it, and strug-
giles for it all his life, and is forced
at last to die without nibble! The
breath of good part of mankind is
spent in following the lure of gold,
which leads no whittier, and exhausts
the energy which might we'll be put
to worthier and more availing
chase.
No, the flower of true success
blooms in other fields and may be
gathered only by discerning persons
who want it more than they want
any other thing and who seek it
through all the days of all the years.
1t has no imitation, is of but one var
iety, and may not be pressed and
dried between the leaves of any book
even the Bible. Its name is Char
acter. 1t is not rare flower, accessi-
bic to only the few, but it is modest,
of quiet mien and hue, and is often
hidden by the foliage and gorgeous
blossoms of more spectacular plants,
so that the merely casual eyes of those
who hurry along the life-path seem
to miss it altogether. 1t grows in
doors and out, in all seasons and
weathers, and may be plucked by the
black hands of the miner as we'll as
by the hands of those whose time is
given to less rugged and dainter
tasks. The man who gathers char
acter gathers success, no matter how
he may be rated by the commercial
agencies.
1t is often stated that out of every
one hundred men who "go into busi-
ness" ninety-seven fail and three sue

failure of the ninety-seven, nor even

know. But in some book which is
not humanity audited nor locked in
the safe at night, a right record is
kept and the thing written plain.
The world has ever been slow to per-
ceive and concede the success of its
really great sons, who shun the low
places of popular achievement and
fancied personal aggrandizement and
patiently essay the difficult heights of
true living and humble serving. The

herself intact? Has she not grace,
or beauty, or patience, or tenderness?
Has she not merely sloughed non
essential and foreign thing whose ab-
sence leaves her neither richer nor
poorer? And if things are only
things, are things the goal? Is their
acquisition success? Is the cheap
counsel of the street wisdom? Not
till man is wholly mortal, not till
the worm is king!
The modern multi-millionaire is
not a peaceful person; he is common
ly Knocked into woe of spirit by the
very possessions in getting of which
he has sacrificed his best self; his
dreams are troubled by the haunting
faces of those from whom he has
wrung his gold, for it is hardly posi-
Bile to assemble multi-millions with
clean hands and no hurt to mankind.
And this he has come to know, not
in the days, perhaps, when he was
hardest at the game of getting, but
in the days when the game was palled
a bit, when his mirror shows a face
which he is not pleased to see when
his hands shake with the palsy which
inevitably follows vain and selfish
living, when men use his name as a
convenient gibe in sardonic conversa-
ton.
If you have any pity, the poor of
the Island need it less than this "man
of MEANS" for if you could tip-toe
into his private precincts you would
find him beating upon his breast in
sheer shame for what he has gotten,
and tapping his scanned brow for
way to rid himself of it, so that his
fellows may think we'll of him, SO
that he may think we'll of himself.
The wine of material conquest has
soured within him and he gulps with
the pain of it. Too late he has
learned that it is not seemly for an
immortal spirit to doubt itself with
the makeup of greed, gather mass
of painted properties, and make life
sad burlesque, drawing the boo of
the galleries where the real people
are apt to sit.
The passion for that phase of al
legged success which is spelled
money is not merely characteristic
of the quick-witted and competent
rich; it also commonly aAicts the
slow-witted and incompetent poor.
The little men who make the crowds
are often gold-gluttons, but unfed.
The germ of all kinds of meretricious
scheming is in them, but they are not
big enough to make it count. Their
eyes are hungrily set on the throne

Vol. XXXIII: No. 49

DcSt lie tnat mas yer Decn lived on
this planet was snapped in the middle
by a scornful and cruel crucifxion.
They who furnished in jest the robe
of purple cloth and thorn-crown for
the ribald coronation reckoned the
Nazarene failure, but among names
his highest, not because of what he
had, for he was poor, but because of
what he was, because he put love,
fidelity and truth before all other
things, because he bent his will on the
achievement of character. That was
the cross to him! Naught but an
incident in the life which he had al
ready laid down for his kind. Though
he did the thankless work of
prophet, accepted the ministry and
companionship of social outcasts and
died in debt, he was a success.
If l could get at the heart of every
man who is bending his energy to
gain mere temporalities, and put into
it the governing thruth that character
is success and success character, it
would change the face of the world
for him and his and into his life
would flow an inexhaustible stream
of essential good. But l cannot. He
must get at his own heart. With his
own hands he must pry the lid from
the urn of truth and take to himself
what is within. He cannot be wise
by proxy. The sword of another will
win no battles for, us. Within each
individual life must be born and nur-
tured the conviction that the business
of an immortal soul is chiefly with
immortal quantities that the things
most worth gaining will not even tip
the beam of the scale in any ware
house, and he who is best able to
cope with the problems of life, the So
called practical problems of toll and
Grade, food and shelter, and the PROV
ident care of those about the hearth
stone, is he within whose life this
conviction has been most perfectly
born and is most carefully nurtured.
There is no clash between charac-
ter and business, nor between charac-
ter and money, but the business and
the money must be purged by the
white fame of justice. Many of you
will say with me, that clean dollar
will go farther in meeting the real
needs of human life than hundreds
of unclean dollars gotten by foul
trading. Will my business hurt my
brother? Yes? Then l must choose
another business or take the dire lot
of the man who wilfully scouts char
acter and puts money above right,
the fortune of the purse above the
fortune of the soul. To deliberately
adopt principles of honor; to inexor-
able square the activities of life with
the law of economic justice which
comprehends the good of all to do
the work for the works sake, letting
the reward be what it may; to rem
der equivalents or more for what is
taken; to weave into the humblest
task the golden tread of the ideal; to
make today's stunt of accomplishment
a little finer than yesterdays; in
short, to covet character above all
things and gain it bit by bit but gain
ing ever, this and this only is success,
ample and fine, and within the reach
of every child of the universe who is
reused to the meaning of life, who
loves light rather than darkness.
