Emtoii Omxw; Kcoi'T: To ono who Ints not tasted tho lirst fruita of tlic prollVssion of law it pectus an easy matter to become a lawyer. It looks like mere child play to havo an office, a shingle, a few hooks, Fomo check, and to draw therefrom a handsome income. The old fanner who regularly as the moon tfoes to town with his eggs and butter, looks in jealously at tho tidy minister of justice, and envies the ease that seemingly linos the over winding pathway of him whoso hands are white and whose tongue is loose. "Tho lazy bloko" the fellow mutters to himself as he unwraps his knotted lines from the wheel, and pull's his ancient pipe with a skillful wickedness. "Ho don't know what, trouble is. Jf ho had SO acres of wheat to cultivate, when eggs i arc low as now, that pale face would wear a difloront shape." Hut tho path of tho lawyers is not eo stiewn with rosea, that no rulllo swoops the quiet peace. There aro troubles, yes, real troubles to bo home. There arc little vcxatio.is that gnaw at tho very heart of Life's quietude. Tho white hands and genteel appearance aro some of the. appurtenances of tho proflession. But they aro not what lends tho life of the l.iwyor its glory. Scneihlo prac titioners never feel above tho common workman. They look at tho nobler and moro elevated phases of their proflVssinn. They look forward to tho heajty approval of their associates, and tho respect of their fellowmcn. Men who outer tho practice of law with tho resolute intention of going high up tho ladder, lind room for tho expanding of every latent power in their being. Tho bud of genius blossoms and blooms under tho subject of a high aspiration. Tho young man who Becks an occupa tion for life among the folio of a buy office finds ready hands Outstretched to lift hitn on and upwards, if his mo tives aro good, and his ability note worthy. If this young nature can bear with tho tedious hours that fit him fur active work, and ho piofits by tho advice of his cldors, ho gets a glorious welcome inio me wiuo urouicr- i hood. It h a trying poriod. The j wild sph its not tu:ed to such confine- i nuut, rebel. It touches the uttermost i spring: of Patience. Dry books and' prosy documents are poor food, it seems I to tin1 mind that seeks its nourish- j ment in the unbound freedom of a I wild r life. Hut when this ordeal is ' p,vt, when tho niiuttoulation is done, and tlie trials of entering won, and tho tnw life just opening out, spreads its wi-l space before him, in which tho young wings of tiouiuu may try their strength, it is rewarded fot all past suH'oriug, and all tho self sue rili ( . It can look back at tho battle fields it has passed through, where tho "Old Ciuard" almost wavered I and wlioio the N.quloau of Patience almost gave way. It can look back to tho days when tho sun of its hope hung low on the western horizon , and when tho martial inusio of life swelled with a mournfully slow ciulnnco. As it stands outho high prominence of trials won, lighted up with radianco of a now and splendid morning, tho young mind can look back to tho hour when its falti rintr feet, inarchod with feeble gait up the foothills that lead to the height it now holds. It can see tho ,1,,., ,,,,,..1 :,. httlo troubles that jutted up in ltn pathway which seemed so troniondoua ! then, as to almost cha&o tho word hojto frrn U'-i vjcubu'iry. It can even fimilu in iU liroiinl ;.ifuly al tho prob lems that puzzled its young endeavors. Tho j in ideas ion of law oilers to men of nbilityj tho widest scopo of action in all roi-oi d of Life'u occupation. Genius finds tho pastures its ilieanis have so often pictured. Tlm hope of life has blossomed Into a splendid realization and now, after all tho "toil and trial is done" as tho eloquence of the true lawyer swings anil sways tho minds and the feelings of his listeners, whim his words carry up to pleasant heights tho throng hu addresses, when tho jury sits with open mouths and nods assent as ho touches them into ru spoils by his pleading, us ho is put ting his thoughts into garlanded tun tonoes, and women weep its he pictures 11 dram t his genius finds in tho sub ject, and us the vast audioneo follows him in all his glorious (lights, hu is j icg.iiiiiig the Paradise he once thought , lost, when his Hot plea brought1 forth s'U'li a storm of liit-ws, Ho j is rewardod for all tho inward btrug- l glotf that brought him to tho rock, slop t by step, higher and higher, upon ! which ho now rests, high and dry nhuvu nil ft'iii-" of failure. To b 1 a Kuoetwful lawyer, it roquiros the i'""l)iiiation of various elements in in 1). Tho stuuMwsful htwyor is tho man i.i whom people can place ex plicit i-onlldqncu a man in whom is found tho il rat principles of a moral and Jin lest man, Tin ty Mick potn fogger may mako niojioy by his trickery Hfiiinn i ii m hiii i n mill iwi imr 1 111 1 ill p i liin ii n for awhilo J but when it comes to a constant income, ho falls behind. When peoplo find a man to bo two- faced they most surely drop him Tho . successful lawyer, the ono who makes strides toward tho upper realms of tho profession, is the honest, moral man. I True, fcomo corrupt men attain high j pofition in public life, but it is not of j ten tho ciue. Tho man who seeks loat j tun high standing through trickery finds the reception of honest people a cold one, indeed. Lecturing can bo successfully coup ! led with the prolusion of law. Anp what would add more to a lawyer's name than tho honor of being a good sensible speaker? What could gain the esteem of tho public quicker than tho discussion of prominent questions, the commingling of ideas, tho inter change of thought? Jle finds exercise for tho subtlest powers of his being in this field. Tho hidden tprings of action aro opened ui) and tried. The nun ed chords of tho silent harp that sleeps within, aro swept with a majestic skill by tho fingers of tho true groat lawyer. Every fount in the big being of man is tapped and tasted. Tho highest flight that wings of fancy over boared aro not strango to him. Tho wido fields of learning his feet have trod. His hands know tho thrill that comes from tho electric touch of labor. IIo known tho bitterness of defeat, and tho hearty manhood that overcomes the ills of life. Tho great lawyer is tho great man. IIo is not afraid of labor. Difficulty has no terror for him. Ho seeks victory in knowledge, not in trickery. JIo teeks succors in skill, not in deceit. So tho young man who enters the profession finds it different from what it seems. Ho finds it a way of rugged Hoss and endeavor. Hut when ho overcomes tho first trials, and subdues tho rising army that comes to slop his progress, then ho finds it one round of delights. .IIo finds it tho homo of great men. 15. W. Huffman. X .
