Envy of Talent.

AS to clever peoples hating each
other, think little extra talent does
sometimes make people jealous. They
become lrrltated by perpetual attempts
and failures, and it hurts their tenn
pers and dispositions. Unpretending
medjocrity 10 good, and Genias Is glo-
ROSS: but weak favor OF genius IN
an essentially common person is detest-
able. 1t spoils the grand neutrality OF
a commonplace character, as the rims

10000 Carloads of Stones

Twenty thousand carloads of stones picked up
and hauled away by j. p JakobSson-Emqust in clearing
land for his farm in Sweden. So one objects to hs
winning this years first prize of the Swedish Agricultural
association.
Wen call him Jake for short. In 1895 he took three
acres that no one else wanted such rock pile
Patiently he set to work digging up the boulders.
Finally he had the stones all removed and the soil bear
ing crops Gradually, with profits saved from his har-
vests he bought rock pile Now he has so acres 10
devoted to crops which support him and his family, ana
20 acres of forest which he planted
Jake used his 10000 carloads of stones TO build a
beautiful wall around his farm and fine highway along
ore side.
He and his wife can take things easily now, for
their nine chidren-whose living wrested from as
hopeess-aookng strip of land as can be found almost
anywhere-are assisting in the work.
How many men would have the patience and the conf
dence in their own efforts attempt the task undertaken
by Jake back in 1895?
His success demonstrates that is largely up to
the individual himself that handicap is too big to be
overcome that create his own opportunity.
The story of Jakes life is enough to make some of the
rest of US ashamed of ourselves when gumbe be-
