In America our watches are factory made. On^ mau makes some miall part aud doet> nothing else. Al! watch en are exactly alike; th;',, ic those of the same make and pattern.

The parts are lutcrciiunge abln. ?j Oed docs not make men on that principle. !* Each mau has hir- own dixUuct curve-hts own individuality? The fallurf to rccoRUizo this fuct by unwire parents results in their at* tempt to make their children dupli cates or themselves. Emerson, in talking to parents on this very mat ter, said: '"rhe trouble is you aro try ing to make another you, ene of you is enough." Ood ir. as prodigal tn the creation of differing human units as he is in creating thc vast and all but inlinite varieties in plants nnd ani mals?' Indeed, He never even grows two blades of grasr. alike, and tho very sands of tho reashore differ, each from the other. We mu6t recognize that we ave we, and can be no one oise. You must know your own bent and follow it. Failures in life are duo to mis fit' . I am awure that it is not always easy for one to discover his own bent/ Some of the greatest successes have at first been failures. Emerson mada a mo t indifferent preacher, and would never hove been heard from had he remained in the pulpit. ' As aphil osophor he came to power. All tho ; preceding years were all but wasted.' Phillips BicoUc was a flat failure as teacher. He heard the voice of God cull'rs him into the pulpit and then I he won immortal renown. There aro other.* who early discovered them selves. Liszt played lu public nt 12. Bacon was but IC when he exposed the fallacy of the Aristotelian philosophy and gave to the world a new and cor rect method of reasoniug. When one discovers his own individuality and is true to lt then there comes great ease in the doing of the thing. Then, too, there is real joy in the doing of thu task. And. there is also sure to follow true and hinting, success. No wonder a man succeeds when he does lt easily and like bis job. Young man -^learn early to defend upon your self. Once a father brought his non to Lord Thurlow that tho great man might give him some good advice as to . the training of his son for the law. Thurlay said : "Give now to your son all the money ho could Inherit nt your death and let him spend it. Then let him marry some silly rich girl .and run through with ber fortune. Then when be comes down tb his last shil ling, maybe he will turn in and do something at the law." That was fine counsel, for what ho meant was: your son villi never amount to anything, so [long as ho depends, upon any one. but [himself for. n. living... Show me ?be son of a rich man who succeeds .and' I wil take off my hu* to him. Ono does not need to live long or observe very widely to discover the philosophy in what I have just been writing Hu man nature tn; such that it. is not prone to do the unnecessary thing. Remove frc Li a boy the necessity to toil in-any " field of endeavor-and he' will bo very apt to be . an idler and; drone in life's hive. When John C. Calhoun was in college one night, while bending over his table in earn est study, a. group of. classmates, poured into the room and seated them-, ??elves in comfortable places and started in for an evening, of lazy so ciability. : Calhoun paid no .attention! to" them, but kept his eyes on his study. One said, "oomo John, quit your study; light .your pipe and hove a social smoko. You- are working too hard; Your oyes show lt." His only answer was, "Qct out, fellows, I did not send for you. I- am busy." But, another' said, "Oh, John, you aro a fool, i You aro killing yourself with study." But hts answer was, 4T have to work hard." "No, you don't John; no hard-: er than the rest of us.
