The greatest moment in our career Is
when we awaken to the shining truth
that tan- life, to make or mar. Is wholly
in our hands: that neither dark destiny
nor grim fate nor the stars nor tho de
crees of the gods nor ?iic much! nations
of men or devils can cheat us of that
greatness of soul and serenity of wind
which are tile crown of real success.
Tho most terrible note in the despair
of the despairing is tho sound of help
lessness. To /eel that the unlverso Is
a huge machine to grind ns at last to
dust, that the tslds of existence are
against us and that we are borne down
by the tramp of irresistible forces
this is the salt taste of failure.
Hut when a man has discovered that
ho himself is master "and that no out- j
side force can touch his .Inner triumph i
that discovery is as of a new world,
the America of spirit, the opening vista
of limitless opportunity., -*-T)r. Frank

To Each Age Its Problems.
It is not enough that wo leave our
institutions as our fathers shaped tbem.
They knew Uttle or nothing of the con
ditions which we fnco. Sufficient unto
the age is the work thereof. It Is not
the right of any generation to project
its will into the future, hut it Is the
duty of each generation to adjust its
institutions to meet Its own needs.
Men need not wait until death to
realize many of their Ideals. They can
have things here on earth which -<thelr
fathers associated with 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.
When all of these possibilities are real
ized? when no one is overworked, cold
or hungry, when nil are loading joyous,
purposeful lives? adjustment will be
complete? welfare will bo universal,?

The Girl and the Artist.
A young woman sat for a crayon
portrait and was not entirely pleased
^lth the result.
"It looks tike me. of course," she said
reluctantly to the artist, "and yet I
think there are some things about it
that ought to be changed." She sug
gested that the eyes should have more
of an upward look, that the bracelet
should be a little more prominent on
her left arm and that her gown be ar
ranged more artistically on tho side.
'That would require a great deal of
retouching," said the artist, "and 1
should have to chnrge you nt least $15
additional."
"Oh, dear!" she exclaimed, somewhat
peeved. "I shall (save to give .It up.
"Father wouldn't stand my 'retouching*
him to that extent"? Llpplncottfo. -
Can Ws Pull Anything?
Sir Olliver Lodge, the eminent Eng
lish scientist, said in a lecture once
that there is no such thing as pulling.
To speak of a horse pulling a cart was.
he said, incorrect The horse did not
pull the cart. It pushed against Its
collar and thereby produced motion in
tlie cart Similarly the oarsman push
ed the water, and the man drawing a
handcart had to clasp the handle, and
tho driving force was caused by the
part which clasped the handle and was
therefore behind it Even If the cart
was fastened to the man's coat tall he
did not pull It He pnshed against his
clothes.
