There are several honest statesmen
now afloat on the sea of politics and
there, are a hundred dishonest ones

floating upon the highest of the po

state officers of both political parties

It is said that three things makft

humanity and must stand or fall by
their own personal greatness, ism
few of our great men had famous an
cestry. The descendants of but two
of our twenty-five presidents evsr
roomed in the White house. So with
wealth. In this country it does not
stick by the laws of heredity. Wi'H
no laws of primogeniture the father
may sleep in a millionaires grave
whil3 every child of uis may nil a
paupers grave. There is ten times
more the smack or greatness in tne
man who earns and saves money tT
in him who heirs millions. The man
who commences at the bottom of the
ladder and toils upward is deservir.a
of much more honor than the one who
commences at the top.
A thirst for knowledge needs to be
planted and cultivated as much as a
hill of corn. Parents and teachers are
the planters and we ourselves the pro
longed cultivator. Not like a kernel
of corn are we confined to the locality
where we were dropped, but we can
move and relocate if we choose. Read
ing Is the Amazon of knowledge and
listening to the talk of others is the
Niagara of thought. And yet ther-?
are other bypaths and alleys. Thf
pauper and tramp, who cannot real,
often come loaded with facts that can
not be found in books. -
There is a charm in a simpering
belle, but is is a sir-pery charm. There
is a glitter in the polished dude, but
it is but skin deep, neither is it last
ing. Like a soap bubble, a collapsa
follows the first test breath. Genuine
knowledge does not bed-fellow wit'i
frivolity or laziness.
To travel is another source of in
telligence, but reading should go hand
in hand. We are in the morn of a
reading age, newspapers, magazines,
and books constitute the corner stone.
No longer will the fop and flirts, rule
Rociety. General intelligence is to be
crowned ruler. A parent may pour
Intelligence into a family; a small
circle may set a community on fire.
Every one of us should wield a torch.
