Keep On.

If you're determined to be great
and reach a height sublime, heed not
the words of those who state that
you arc wasting time, who say you
should be hauling slate, or packing
bricks and lime. DO something
useful" men will say, instead OF
dreaming dreams; go out of town
and harvest hay, and drive the
farmers teams; you're throwing
golden hours away, pursuing idle
schemes" Twas thus men talked
to Tom Carlye hundred years ago !;
his hopes of greatness caused a
smile as men went to and fro !;
That feckless loon will gain no
pile they said, 'of useful dough
He's nearly 80 years of age, and he
is busted fiat; he has no bawbees,
we'll engage. to buy Sunday hat !;
he's tutoring, for paltry wage, a
youth whose head is fat. And we
could name a score of lads who
think his course is vile; they're out
to get the. precious scads which
make all mortals sr';le; no visions
vain, no idle fads, can lure them half
a mile In sickness, poverty and
care the dauntlesS Thomas wrought !;
his pantry void, his cupboard bare.
when for pie he sought; and still
he sat upon his chair. and thought,
and thought, and thought. And so
he went his toilsome way. and
reached that height sublime; he
might have garncred oats and maize
in Scotia'S rigid cline, ii he had lis
tened to the jays who thought his
course a crime. You fix your eyes
upon the peak. you're bound as by
a spell; and men will say you are
freak and need a padded cell; but do
not heed the words they speak
strive on, and all is well.
