I -N A claoee In the will of Prof.
George Trumbull Ladd, late of
Yale university, a provision was
ihade that his body should be cremat
ed and that a portion of the ashes
ahould be buried beside a camphor
tree which he had planted In 1907 In
the yard of the School of Commerce
In Nagasaki, Japan.
Professor Ladd was an authority on
Oriental matters and had lectured In
tiplversitles In Japan and India.
• » •
“I have lived and loved and' labored,
and all Is well,” was the impressive
epitaph he chose to mark his grave.
Are you living and loving and la
boring so that at the end.of your Jour
ney, you can say, “all is weH”?
What a volume of meaning there
Is in those three monosyllables and
tlie splendid words preceding them!
To live and love and labor, and to
•do nothing more would in a little while
turn arid wastes to blooming gardens,
and lift from the world ,lts burden of
care, its burning hates and frightful
wars. Terrible Mars with his blear
eyes would be vanquished.
And so would the thorny road you
are traveling, white carrying in the
pack on your back old animosities
and jealousies that retard your prog-
ress at every step.
» • •
We have each of us some whlmsey
In the brain that keeps us from lov
ing and laboring as we should. .
We have within us pent-up tor
rents of factious words which in sud
den vents of anger we pour out and
Hood the smooth road ahead until It
frana ssgftf # - ■ 1
at our . dear
onrs. ami sometimes the hurt remains
through life.
We seemingly cannot agree on any
thing except hostility.
In sudden bursts of passion, to live
and love and labor, that all may be
well Is remote from oar thoughts.
Rome of us. In moments of reflee-
] tlon, subdued perhaps by an odd mix
ture of shame and self-reproach see
the error of our way. and hold our
selves In check, though the bridle
chafes and the bits blister.
And so should we all, for to live
and love and labor ought to be our
chief purpose In life, fpr It will take
us through safely and enable us at
the end to write with a glad heart
and a steady hand, “all Is well!"

WANTED to be a singer," said a
successful.. Illustrator to Uie
writer. “I liad a pretty fair
voice. With cultivation It could have
been made better. But I know If I
spent the time necessary for Its cul
tivation, I wouldn’t have time to learn
to draw. And, I had more ability at
picture making tlmn at singing.
“I didn’t quit singing cold. I still
sing a little. But I dropped It as a
business. One business Is all any man
can attend to If he wants to get along."
Today this man Is one of the high
est paid Illustrators In the country.
He might have been a fair Illustrator
and a fair singer, or a good singer
and a bad Illustrator. But be chose
the career for which he had the
greater talent, and stuck to It.
The late Charles E. Van Loan In
youth developed considerable talent
for drawing. When he was fourteen
or fifteen bis teachers predicted that
he would some day be a great artist.
But he discovered that he could
write better than he could draw, and
thereafter he drew only to amuse his
friends aud his children.
All his energies were bent toward
learning to‘write, and learn to write
be did. _ '
Many men are born with a little tal
ent for several different activities.
And many such ruin their lives by
scattering their energies Instead of
concentrating them on the odfc thing
they can do best.
Time alloted to man is Insufficient
for the mastery of even a single art
or .profession.' -
Few men, however great, ever die
with the feeling that they have reached
anything like the standards they i
foi themselves.
There Is always something still to
learn .when the summons cornea to lay
labor aside forever.
The surest way to win the measure
