Folly to Lose Heart
in Si9ht of Success

One of the worst evils wrought by
the sin of encouragement Is that we
are tempted to stop when we are just
on the eve of realized success, and
almost in sight Of the, richest bless
ings. Up near the summit of Mount
Washington, / once, saw cairn Of
stones to mark the spot where poor
girl perished from exposure and heart
failure on a cold night. Her father
and she had rashly attempted to as
cend the mountain without guide lit
was many years ago). and they had
become lost, and had sat down be-
wildered when the chilling darkness
Of the autumnal night came on. The
next morning the distracted father
discovered that very short distance
more would have brought him in sight
Of the lights from the windows of
the "Tip-top' cabin! Here Is bit
Of a parable to illustrate how those
who are doing not rash things but
wise things may be tempted to lose
heart, and to relax their efforts when
they were almost in sight Of success

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
BY F. A. WALK E r
KNOCK AT THE DOOR

VOU cannot hope to gain entrance
1 to friendship except by knocking
at her door with the courage and cour-
tesy which invariably insure admit
tance.
And this Is equally true Of every
thing of worth in life, quite regard
less Of the opinions Of those who are
prone to think otherwise.
If you would be on intimate terms
with Wisdom, you must knock at her
golden door every day.
You may rail at the idea, but II you
miss a day or two a week you will
find when you 60 to call again that
some one more persistent has been
ahead Of you, and picked the choicest
flowers in the front garden.
In all that concerns life, especially
the vital things, If you would sit with
those who occupy the front pews, wear
the best clothes, lock arms with high
society, know how to entertain q
prince or pauper without lofty af-
fectatiOn or mongrel condescens1on,
you must first knock at the door and
gain proficiency by frequent knock
ings and regular visits.
You may daub q canvas with color,
sail boat on an mrufi1ed stream,
sing q commonplace song which the
boys Of the street whistle without
missing note, play the piano, do ex-
Quisite embroidery work in imitation
OF the piece before you, but II you wish
to excel beyond the mere copyist and
become master In every sense Of the
word, you must keep knocking.
In matters Of art and intellect,
there is no other way to improve or
advance except by going often to the
door Of Wisdom and picking up knowl-
edge first hand
You may be tempted to hint that
this requires too much work, too
many long hours Of studious applica-
ton to things with which you feel you
are already intimately acquainted, but
If you will march out your produc-
tions on dress parade and line them
up side by side with others, you will
not be long in discovering defects
which may sicken your heart.
But IL you are made Of the right
material, and have within your breast
an infiexible determination to go to
the top, such comparisons will not be
odious.
1t Is only by hearing superior mu-
Sic, or by seeing masterpiece In
painting or sculpture, that we learn
to know the inferior and thus gain an
eminence where we find an inexpres-
sible pleasure In imparting our hard
earned knowledge to others.

CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
BY II. IRVING KING
ACORNs AND LOVE

TT MAY surprise many people to
4 know that in current superstitions
there survive not only remnants Of
tree-worship, nature-worship, SURVIVOR
ship, moonworship. etc, which have
been changed by the ages into formulas
the origin and meaning Of which those
who use them are entirely ignorant,
but that also there still remain open
and direct appeals to the heather gods
who are invoked directly by name. OF
this latter sort Is superstition which II
circulated largely throughout the coun-
try in nearly all those little paper-cov-
cred books dealing with dreams and
charms which are SO extensively con-
suited by the uneducated and, 1t must
be owned, not infrequently ION the
sly" by persons of intelligence and edu-
cation. The superstition In question Is
rite for discovering young woman's
future husband An odd number Of
girls not exceeding nine assemble and
each strings on chord as many acorns
as there are girls present. Then each
girl places her string of acorns in the
fire and watches it burn in silence.
When the ac0rns are consumed each
girl retires to her bed, saying as she
gets between the sheets:
May love and marriage be the theme
To visit me in this nights dream:
Gentle Venus, be my friend,
The image of my lover send.
Then the young man whom she is
destined to marry will appear to her in
a dream The use Of the acorns is, Of
course, remnant of tree-worship; an
appeal to the oak, that great and popu-
lar tree god OF our ancestors. They
are offered to him, consumed by fire
as upon an altar The acorn has an
other ancient significance which cannot
be gone into here which makes it an
appropriate offering in such cases. So
far the charm is mere survival whose
significance is entirely unsuspected by
the practitioners of the rite. But then
comes the direct appeal by name to
Venus. the goddess of love Of the old
Roman mythology, word for word such
as inquisitive maidens might have used
it in the days when Aeneas brought
into Latium his gods"
