Sir Oliver I/alge, the em inent E ng­
lish scientist, said in a lecture once
th a t there is no such thing as pulling.
To speak of a horse pulling a c a rt was.
he said, incorrect. The horse did not
pull the cart. It pushed against its
collar and thereby produced motion in
the cart. Similarly the oarsm an push­
ed the water, and the man draw ing a
handcart had to clasp the handle, and
the driving force w as caused by the
p art which clasped the handle and was
therefore behind it. Even if the cart
w as fastened to the m an’s coat tail he
did not pull it. He pushed against his
clothes.

A young woman sat for a crayon
portrait and w as not entirely pleased
w ith the result.
“ It looks like me. of course,” she said
reluctantly to the artist, “and yet I
think there are some things about it
th at ought to be changed.” She sug­
gested th a t the eyes should have more
of an upw ard look, th a t the bracelet
should be a little more prom inent on
her left arm and th a t her gown be a r ­
ranged more artistically on the side.
“T hat would require u great deal of
retouching,” said the artist, “and 1
should have to charge you a t least $15
additional.”
“Oh, dear!” she exclaimed, som ewhat
peeved. “I shall have to give it up.
F ather wouldn’t stand my ‘retouching'

It is not enough that we leave our
institutions as our fathers shaped them.
They knew little or nothing of the con­
ditions which we face. Sufficient unto
tlie age Is the work thereof. It is not
the right of any generation to project
its will into the future, but it is the
duty of each generation to a d ju st its
institutions to m eet its own needs.
Men need not w ait until death to
realize m any of their ideals. They can
have things here on earth which their
fath ers associated w ith the millennium.
They need no longer overwork nor go
cold and hungry nor suffer from pesti­
lence or even famine. Machinery has
provided the possibilities of a new life.
W hen all of these possibilities are real­
ized—when no one is overworked, cold
or hungry, w hen all are leading Joyous,
purposeful lives—adjustm ent will he
complete—w elfare will be universal.—

The greatest m oment in our career Is
when wo aw aken to tlie shining truth
th a t our life, to m ake or m ar, is wholly
in our hands; th a t neither dark destiny
nor grim fate nor the stars nor the de­
crees of the gods nor the m achinations
of men or devils can cheat us of that
greatness of soul and serenity of mind
which are the crown of real success.
The most terrible note in the despair
of the despairing is the sound of help- i
lessness. To feel th a t the universe Is
a huge m achine to grind us a t last to
dust, th at the odds of existence are
against us nnd th a t we are borne down
by the tram p of irresistible forces
this is the salt taste of failure.
But when a man has discovered that
he him self is m aster and th a t no out­
side force can touch his inner trium ph
th a t discovery is as of a new w w ld,
the America of spirit, tlffc opening vista
of lim itless opportunity.—Dr. Frank
C rane in W oman's World.
