If there is any standard for marking off the true life from the one that is not, it is the measure in which unselfishness is practical in that life. There is in every man the desire to realize something better, to make life richer and better. There is in each of us the desire to ex cel. This desire may be abused, and men rush about in the mad race for wealth, chase bubbles looking for gain. But those that do this are sure to fail and merely for wealth's sake they tire of it. Where is the selfish man who knows the meaning of true hap piness? He may have more time and money than some one else, but in his mad rush for it he has destroyed his strength and under mined his character. It is easy to find excuses for this selfishness. The duty is unpleasant. A man's friend may be in trouble or in trouble or in need, but he feels that it is not his business to help him, and he puts it off because if his selfishness. But he who gives his life up to selfishness is vain and foolish. Self-pleasing and self-seeking are natural and pleasant. The spirit of the work fosters and feeds the spirit o? sel fishness, and conscience make but a feeble resistance against it. lt may'seem fair outwardly and be esteemed by society. The selfish man may be intellectual and cul tured, but his actions are wrong in the sight of God. God does not want us to neglect our own lives, but to develop ourselves to man kind. The true spirit of selfish ness and a well balance love of , self often keeps a young man in Ischool that he can "get an educa tion and then use his advantage for the advantage for the benefit of others. Vi selfishness is no j foolish frenzy. It does not inean I that a man must wreck his busi l.ness in order to help others. But j it means that instead of pursuing I his business merely for the sake of I "raining money, he should use his I money to do good and help the I uplift of humanity. A man does pot need to wreck his life by I working under unfavorable condi I Mons to keep from appearing sel I fish. Nor does he need to remain jin ignorance or without culture, j More can be accomplished by the I man who helps himself and is in I telllgcnt and cultured than by I reckless almsgiving. Napoleoen J had power and opportunity, and I he used it for his own selfish ends. I He did not do as much for his na J tion as others who may not have J been so conspicuous, but who I have lived unselfish lives. We I should not look upon a life of un ! selfishness as enduring hardships lin tlie hope of a future reward, lt Sis good in itself. I Lead on, O God, lead on; j I had rather walk in the dark with I thee, I Than to walk alone in the light." 1; r One of the strangest things in J this world is why a woman who i J can trim a pencil wHh a pair of J scissors is not considered comped . I tent to v-?te alongside of ? man [who can't bake a batter cake on tja hot griddle. J The difference between' clever \ I -deas and ignorance is that the Jfcl?ver ones get what they want i ?-and don't waste time wanting ? What they can't get; and the fools fcry for the moon. .J Teacher-?-H en ry, can yen de I fine a hypocrite? , rienry-Yessum. It's a boy wot comes to school wid a smile on his face. i Lots of people believe there isn't any money on a farm. A farm is just the same as any til er institution. Money isn't back ing up to be milked-it has to be dug out! Time doesn't travel any faster as we get along in years; but it tries our old legs a little harder to keep up with the procession. Now here's a thing that puzzles mc /? grave mistake it seems to be; Why do we say our ye;'rs art spent, ' When part of every year is Lent? What is the use of going around half dead all the time? Why not hurry up the funeral and be done with it? Tal Phillips says that the cost bf living seems to be a good deal higher than it used to be, but that he cannot see that it is worth any more. From a once despised line, tolerated under protest, the poul try business is now recognized as one of the most valuable indus tries of our land, contributing hun dred of millions of dollars to thc wealth of the country. Three i quarters of a million of dollars is realized annually from the Ameri can hen, equaling the combined value of potatoes and oats, and equal to the wheat crop of the United States. Not only has thc business increased in volume, it has increased educationally. More and more, the colleges of our :ountry, one realizing that the study of poultry culture is just as essential a* any other one thing General Sherman said, "War is hell." And no truer words were ever uttered. No diagrams are needed either. Thai's why his dic tum will live. / . j Blease-is like the preacher whose congregation has walked out in the midst of thc sermon. A man may be successful as a ?loafer, and invest less capital and brains than are required to suc ceed in any other profession.
