THE BANK OF LIFE.

Life is Bank; we open an ac-
count at the moment of our birth.
The bank is scrupulously just; it pays
US interest on all our savings, hut it
knows no false generosity. 1t never
sends us false statement; it never
permits US to overdraw our account.
Our capital is safe, the bank can't
reak, for its assets and funds. are Sc
cured by eternity. Sometimes you
hear men and women say that their
are bankrupt; if that~he true, it raeans
that they have either. lived on their
capital or have never saved. It does
not mean and can never mean that
eternity has defaulted and that the
bank of life has put up it's shutters.
What we have brought to life whether
it be the gilt-edged securities Of sac
Srifice or the unredeenlable trash Of
passion is always in the. vaults Of life
for US to draw against until it is ex-
hausted. There's an old saying, God
doesn't pay debts with money'-not
with money, perhaps; but he never
fails to pay his debts. So if you don't
know how to answer the question,
What are you getting out Of life 20
there's another question which will
give you your answer, "What have
you given life?" For what you have
given to life is what you are getting
out Of life with interest; and if what
you are citing out of life makes you
5discontented, there is only one rem
sedy-give to life more wisely and
more lavishly-Strathmor

THINK FOR YOURSELF

TT IS always good policy to read clean
L literature, to consider the advice OF
those who should know what they are
talking or writing about, and to listen
to good sermons, but no one ever was
kept on the right pathway by what ne
read or heard spoken unless he used
his brain.
Everyones life is in his own keeping
Whether he is happy or unhappy,
whether he is successful or unsuccess-
full, whether he Is earning for himself

pends on himself. Wise men and hon
est men may direct one to the proper
road but no one can make q human
being do what is right if he refuses tc
do so:'': -.
-. Nearly every one remembers that olc
nroverb, "You can take horse to wa

But too often the lesson it is supposed
to teach falls on deaf ears.
= It Is always dangerous to follow the
mob. One may become quite popular
with a certain class if he Will DO as
that class wishes. But popularity :of
that sort is seldom worth great deal
Those who find real enjoyment In hfe
and those who stand out as leaders are
seldom found in the midst of the most
popular crowd. -
If ones mentality is normal, whether
he is educated or uneducated, he is
likely to come near the proper goal II
he uses his brain. But let him con-
stantly depend on the Judgment OF
others to direct his footsteps and the
chances are ten to one that he'll be
headed toward a fall. :;

There is a decidedly human touch in the fol-
lowing statement from Michael Pupin, the Serbian
immigrant who became a great inventor: !.
when l landed at Castle Garden forty-eight
years ago l had only five cents in my pocket. Had
I brought five hundred dollars instead Of FIVE cents
my immediate career in the new. and to me a per-
fectly strange, land would have been the same. a
boy immigrant such as l was then does not begin
his career until he has spent all the money which
he has brought with him. l brought five cents and
Immediately spent it upon a piece of prune pie,
which turned out to be a bogus prune pie. 1t con-
tanned nothing but pits of prunes, If l had brought
five hundred dollars, it would have taken me a little
longer to spend them, mostly upon bogus things,
but the struggle which awaited me would have been
the same in each case. 1t is no handicap to a boy
immigrant to land here penniless it is not a handi-
cap to any boy to be penniiess when he strikes out
for an independent career, provided that he has the
stamina to stand the hardships that might be in
store for him."
