But few comparatively are "born to the purple." And it is a. serious question whether those who are thus, born, and are there by relieved from a large measure of the cares and anxieties common to the world's toilers are any bet ter off therefor. The faculties of our natures that are not ..brought into constant and active play be come limp and ineffective frem dis use. Thus the man born to an in heritance of plenty misses all those grand lessons of self denial and necessity for patient and persistent industry that can bo learned only in the schools of adversity and poverty. He misses the schooling of those hard struggles with the perplexing problems of existence, so necessary to harden his muscles, moral as well as physical, and bring out the best that is in him. It is natural -for the poor to envy the lot of the rich especially of those who live in luxurious ease, and who, in the words of the Scrip ture, "toil not, neither, do thoy spin," the world's inutilities, the pampered descendants of sires who in all their busv lives knew no rest nor peace of mind in the mad acquisition of wealth, which did them but little if any good, and their descendants evil. If the poor only knew it, they are better off as they arc; not, of course, in a spirit of abject acceptance of the pres ent, but so long as they are prompted to struggle for some thing beyond their present lot and are reasonably happy, even though they fail to reach it: "Hope springs eternal in the human breast; Man never is but alwajs to be blest," says Pope, and the world's ex perience verifies the aphorism. The struggle for it is the. main thing needed. It keeps the mefal bright and the faculties' in tuno. No ono can afford to go through lifo without experiencing .the ne cessity for calling into constant and vigorous -notion all his mental powers. Whero the necessity is wanting, the faculty will bo likely to iie dormant. Tho hardest-worked men in any community are those who devote their lives solely to tho acquisition of wealth. By constant practice and application they succeed in developing the acquisitivo faculty to an abnormal extent, at tho price often. of all tho nobler attributes of tho soul. This is true the world over, from Athens to Astoria. Such live? "are usually empty of sunshine. They are beyond tho pale vf human sympathy, are deso late and unloved in the midst of plenty. 'When thoy die, the south wind .whose soft breath they un heeded in lite will blow as sweet ly; the violets tvhosp grateful fragrance the' nuwr stopped to inhale will -blossom as gloriously, and the stars above, whoso twink ling light they never saw, will shed a grand luster above their grave that no lamp above a king's tomb can emulate. And we, ,4tho sur vivors." Well, as we tead the morning paper and sip our morn ing coffee, some one on the other side' of tho table says: 'So old 'Aladdin is dead! and, by the way, how mqob did be leave?" Ho left everything, and that is his epitaph. But probably the worst con dition of blind in which a man can find himself is that of being con tented and satisfied with but.littlc or nothing. This is the other ex treme of lifo. It is tjhen a roan is practically worthless to himself and to the world. Only thoso suc ceed in doing who try to do. To float with the stream is the easiest thing in the world; to stem lind overcome it, and rise superior to circumstance requires nerve and manhood. , Right here is where nature draws the line between the good, and the good-for-nothing. . We should aim to bo satisfied only with what wo cannot help or improve. And there is but very little with, which we come in con- tact, in our surroundings and circumstances, that we cannot im prove, if we have tho will to set ourselves about it. If wo lack tho will, the sooner we cease to cumber tho earth, the better for the earth. Contentment is only annther name for indifference, and though wo can all have what we like simply by liking what wo have, yet the natural impulse should be for something better, and thnt used as stepping stone for something better still, must put the soul in better shape for that alleged hereafter that the great and good of all ages have preached and prophesied. In any events 'tis better so to act, that when all of life fades away, a peace of mind remains. "If there's another world how great your bliss, and if there's not, you've made the most oj this."
