You will he ,tvhat you will be;
Let failure find Ita false content
In that poor word "environment.''
nut spirit scorns It, anil Is free.
It masters time, It conquers space.
It cows that boastful trickster Chance
And bids the tyrant Circumstance,
Uncrown and fill a servant's place.
The human Will, that force unseen.
The offspring of a deathless Soul,
Can hew the way to any goul,
Though walls of granite Intervene.
Do not Impatient In delay,
But wait as one who understands;
When spirit rises and commands,
The gods arc ready to obey.
The river seeking for the sea
Confronts the dam and precipice.
Yet knows It cannot fall or miss;
You will bo what you will bo!
The sooner you put aside the Idea
that your failures arc the result of trusts
and monopolies, and that a cruel fate
has prevented you from achieving any
thing, the better
for you.
There Is a man
who was deprived
of both arms when
a small boy. lie
has become expert
with hla toes, and
makes an excellent
living and has be
come Independent.
A man thrown
suddenly out of
work, by a trust,
set forth after a
week of rest and
relaxation to find
a new occupation.
He was 50 years old
and had worked In
one firm for twenty-five years. A too
good heart, an extravagant wife and
children, had prevented his saving a com
petence. So he was literally starting life
anew.
He had been told that the world wanted
only young men; that he would find noth
ing to do; and that his fate was that of
thousands of other In these times.
But the man said to himself: "I will
bo different from the thousands. I will
find work. I will succeed."
And he did. Not at once; he tried
several months to obtain what he wanted
with poor success. But after each fail
ure ho said, "I am simply being saved
for something better. I am In this world
for some purpose, and I am not going
to be a beggar, or a failure. Success
and Independence belong to me. They
must come."
Of course, with that spirit, .they had
to come. ,
And today the map. Is far better placed
than he, wag before the trust arne and
throw him 6t of Tils position. Because
he has developed new powers ' mentally
by this experience.
There Is no excuse for Idleness, .despon
dency and despair In this world.
However hopeless tho outlook may
seem to you, however difficult the path
before you, you can find the way to Inde
pendence and Buccess if you never let
go.
It may require a long time. But If
you had your choice today to start in a
dark, foggy valley and slowly starve to
death, or to climb a steep, long moun
tain road which required years of en
deavor and fatigue, yet led to comfort
and beauty "at the top, you would, I am
sure, start at once up the mountain.
No matter what boulders lay aneaa,
you would try to climb over. No mat
ter what wild animals roamed over the
mountain.- you would face all the' trials
and dangers sooner than stay In the val
ley and die a slow death.
That is precisely what you want to do
now.
To give up all individual effort because
there are trusts and monopolies In the
land Is' to stay In the valley and die of
Inaction. To push on In a determined
and never-givo-up state of mind Is to
succeed In spite of everything.
If you chance to see some other pilgrim
on the road, riding In an automobile while
you walk, do not at o'e Jump to the
conclusion that he is your enemy and
that he has robbed and cheated his fel
low men to procure his method of easy
locomotion.
Such thoughts will take your force and
vitality away from the object you have
in vtow, and will harm you, while they
may wrong your neighbor. It would be
well for you to find out how he came
to own an automobile before you con
demn his as a greedy monopolist. Per
haps he built it with hla own skill and
labor, paying honest dollars for the ma
terials. I have known a fisherman to get along
tv lifetime with a leaky boat and one oar,
and to go about "sculling," thinking it
was the only way be could do; while an
other fisherman, with no greater ad
vantages, used his spare hours In study
ing machinery, and built himself a small
launch, with which he explored deeper
vuters and caught larger fish. This man

was not a monopolist and owed no poorer i
nelghhors an apolog for having better 1
means of locomotion than they.
It was grown to be the habit of the ,
unsuccessful to class nil people who
possess comforts and conveniences In one
mass with the Idle, selfish ami ofttlmes
rich.
There are millionaires who came by
their wealth through criminal methods.
There are capitalists who grind the poo;'
and wrong their fellow men. But it Is
well to remember tlmt there are also
honest, noble, unselfish people with
fortunes, and capitalists who are a bless
inp to the world, to the laboring classes
and to humanity.
No more unjust and absurd Idea ever
existed than that mistaken Impression of
the very poor1 that nil rich or even com
fortable people nre their enemies and
tholr dcspollcrs,
Kqually erroneous Is the Idea that only
j the poor havo troubles, cares or hard
I ships.
j There aro wealthy people who work
I fourteen hours a day with their brains
and hands, trying to do good to human-
' lty I
There are men who become the pos
1 sessors of large fortunes through honest
Industry and perseverance, and who are
I bowed to the earth by the cures and re-
sronslbllltlcs of life, and who lie awake
nights while poorer men sleep, trying to ;
ileclde Just what is the kindest, wisest j
and most unselfish course of action to ,
pursue.
To bo the possessor of a comfortable
bum of money docs nut mean to be dis
honest or unkind, any more than poverty
means honesty and unselfishness.
There are all kinds of people In both
classes.
However poor you are, try at least to
be Just and fair In your cstlmatu of
others.
Justice Is one of the pillars of char
acter building.
Make yourself everything that Is hon
est, noble. Just and deserving, as you
climb the mountain of life, and bo care
ful before you condemn your fellow
men. The best criticism and rebuko to
dishonesty and Idleness Is honesty and
Industry.
Stilicho and the Goths
By ItEV. THOMAS U. GRKOUKV.
Fifteen hundred and ten yars ago,
March 11, 403-the great Stilicho won
the title of the "Second Marlus," by turn
ing back the great barbarian mass at
Pollentta.
' The hordes of
Marie and the le
gions of Stilicho
fought alj day, the
fortune of the., day
Veering now to one
side and now to the
other, and when
the darkness of
plght put an end
to the carnage the
Oothlo hosts were
still on the field,
defiant as ever.
But w h o n tho
morning camo and
the legionaries were preparing them
selves for a renewal of the combat It
waa discovered that the Barbarians had
"folded their tents like the Arabs, and
silently slipped away." They had had
enough. The terrible pounding that
Stilicho gave them, with the fear of a
worse one to follow, was more than they
had bargained for, and the Eternal city
was saved.
To have won the victory of Pollentta
was glory enough for any man, but four
years later Stilicho was called upon to
give the second proof of his military
prowess and to win another famous vic
tory. In 4W there poured down upon the
sunny plains of Italy a mighty multi
tude of "Vandals, Suevl, Burgundians and
other barbarians, led by the fierce Dada
galsus, one of the most terrible charac
ters of history,' who, Is seems, had bound
himself by a solemn vow to his pagan
deities to reduce Rome to "a heap of
stones and ashes."
Crossing the Alps, the Po and the
Apennlnc, tho vast tide of savage hu
manity foamed and frothed toward Home.
City after city was sacked and pillaged
and their inhabitants put to the sword,
and presently the wave reached Flor
ence. That beautiful place was as strong
as it was fair, and refusing to bui rentier,
the barbarian king resolved to take it
by siege.
With Radagalsus at Florence, only 180
miles away, tho senate and people of
Rome trembled as they had not trembled
since the time of Hannibal, and all eyes
turned Imploringly towurd the hero of
Pollentla. If he could not save them
their case was hopeless.
In the meantime, Stilicho was on. the
way to Florence, where he arrived In
good time. Instead of attacking the bar
barians In the open field, however,
Stilicho, with consummate tact and ex
pedition, encompassed the enemy with
strong lines of clrcumvalatlon, and in-

"They though It was meningitis, but
decided It was appendicitis, and opel
ated anyhow. You know what happens
when doctors disagree. Poor, dear Pom
peyl"
The handsome wife of the only king
now In exile In New York, wiped her
largo hazel eyes. ..Sitting In lior stylish
apartment In tho house especially built
for the royut family In Central Park. 1
had a long talk with their majesties
and got considerable Inside In formation
Into the troubles of FoIIh Leo and his
wife, Helen, king "and queen 'of the ani
mal kingdom.
Poor Pompey, one of three cubs, I
mean princes, born ten months ugo to
the august couple, has succumbed to a
variety of diseases.
William Snyder, first lord of the bed
chamber and high keeper of the Inner
seal, told me that possibly Pompey had
had appendicitis, or even meningitis, but
anyhow It began with his teeth, as It so
often does with princes of the Jungle
who have to live in their town houses
owing to clroumHtanccs over which they
have no control.
"Tho entire trouble of my family is
lion to the luslness of tho age," an
nounced his majesty the king In deep
tones. "For generations my ancestors
havo refused to succumb to the degrad
ing influences of clvllizutlon. But the
rising generation Is not what Its forbears
were. In thorn I see tho same tonuency
to greed and Bloth that makes my royal
family look down with disgust on the
human bloed. Mke tho puny home sa-

queen.

"You should see him. He Is the finest
stead of being the besiegers the bar
barians found themselves besieged.
With desperate courage the men from
the north threw -themselves time and
again against the Roman lines, but In
every Instance they were beaten back,
and In duo course of time famine, aided
by the Roman spears, battle axes and
catapults, did Its work.
It is said by tho authorities that more
than 240,000 fighting men perished upon
the barren ridge of hills at Iesule. Rada
galsus was most effectually disposed of
and once more the people of Rome
breathed freely.
It Is not pleasant to remember that the
great man who had twice saved Rome
from the barbarians was. two years
after his defeat of Radagalsus, put to
death by his sovereign upon the hollow
charge of treason to tho state. Cnlm 'n
hit consciousness of Innocence, and per
haps stunned by the character of the ac
cusation, Stilicho, with a firmness not
unworthy of the last of the Roman gen
erals, submitted his neck to tho sword
of Heraclean.
EXPERTS IN LITERATURE
A little party of Irishmen, represent
Ing different walks of life, were discuss
ing momentous questions, when the tulk
drifted to literature.
"This reminds me of somi of my Irish
friends of the 'ould sod' with whom I
was talking some days ago." said Frank
Fogarty of New York to the Rev. Father
T, J Malone of Denver.
'How's that7" asked Father Malone.
"They also were discussing literature.
O'Brien and Kerrigan were In tho party.
Fays O'Brien to Kerrigan, 'How do you
like Omar Khayyam?'
" 'Oh. replied Kerrlgun. 'I'd Just ar
lief have a drink of Chlantl wine.'
"The party broke up, and only Kerrl-
(.an and O'Brien remained, and ther
O'Brien, turning a withering look upon j
Kerrlgun, remarked. 'Kerrigan. I'm ,
ashamed of you. You were trying to talk 1
literature and lvery time you opened

"My son," continued King Leo, apelng
your race, no longer sharpens his nntU
as of yore, but has to bo manicured at
great expense to the royal exchequer nnd
much trouble to the attendants. When
I see a mighty prince of blood giving way
to tho effeminate pursuits I wonder what
tho age is coming to." King Leo leaned
Ms head upon hla velvet paw nnd lookod
thoughtful.
'Thon I take, sir, that your family have
all the ailments of tho human famlly7" I
asked.
"We have, only we havo them harder
and wo had them first."
"Why, none of the babies that come to
seo us here In the park havo a worse
time than my poor dears do with their
teeth," said the queen, "and we get ull
tho fashionable troubles, too grips and
appendicitis. Poor, dear Pompey died of
that or something similar the doctors
don't quite know yet. But. anyhow, it's
all the climate. New York does not ngreo
with me, and I tell Pa that if he were
only not so engrossed In business wo
would bis able to go south for the winters
at least."
"My duty Is to remain here. 'Ich Dlen'
Is the royal motto!" said his majesty,
se.ntentloualy.
"Qo and see grandpa If you really want
to know how to bring up children," urgod
Queen Helen, and being properly Intro
duced by Chamberlain Snyder, I inquired
of the famous dowager queen how sho
had managed to raise threo generations
of children In the rigorous climate of this
city. Tho magnificent downger was
dressed In a yellow plush dress, which is
tho favorite color of the Leo family.

While we dream of the days we wero young,
When the mornings were long and the blrdlo's Spring song
Seemed tho sweotast that over was sung.

Let's pretend that wo watch the stream flow

CHORUS.
By the old wooden bridge, Bessie darling;
By tho old wooden bridge that we know
When we stood In love's dream near the ullvqry stroma
Where the primrose and watercress grow.
You were only a shy little maid, dear,
But your cheeks had the strawberry's glow,
And I kissed your fair head when you said you would wed,
By the old wooden bridge, long ago.

And I trace little lines on your face,

If you marry Annette that will be your

Don't complain. A woman Is more or less
entitled to kick nbout the sort of hits-
band she gete, because she had to take
what was offered her. A man's wlfo is
of his own picking. She represents his
tastes and his Judgment, and If he de

complain that she Isn't a washing .ma

Marrlnge works no miracles In a
woman'R character, my boy. What she
was . before the wedding ceremony was
read over her she Is after marriage. Only
more so. For marriage Is like a mor
dant. It sets the dye of a woman's na
ture. If a girl is pretty and silly and frivolous
i before marriage, sho will bo silly and
frivolous and pot pretty nftor marriage.

And If n girl Is so selfish she will let
her old father work himself to death for
her, be sure she will bo a slave driver to
her husband,
And, by the same token, tho girl who
Is sensible nnd helpful nnd practical
and competent, who Is a good daughter,
and a good sister before marriage, will
make a wife whose price is beyond
ruble?.
Furthermore, son, I would call your
attention to the fact thnt Annette !
as dellcato and fragile as a hot house
flower. There's something In that very
weakness that strikes a chlvalrlo chord
In a strong man's breast, and makes hitn
wunt to shelter her from all tho storms
or life.
It's n lovely sentiment, my boy, but
fatal to act upon, for all misfortunes
thnt can happen to a man tho very
worst Is to bo tied down to a sickly wife.
It means nerves, which In turp maus

means working your fingers to tho bone
to pay doctors. It means never having
one minute's peace or freedom. It means
going from n hard day's work to a home
thnt Is full of querulous complaints and
whining. It means a life that la a night
mare. If sickness comes after marriage, and
the wlfo becomes an Invalid, a husband's
duty Is to comfort Rnd sustain her as
well uh ho cnn. That Is an unavoidable
misfortune, and must be borne as such,
but no man need 'hunt for trouble as
lr& does when he picks out a delicate
woman for a wife,
Tho moral of nil which Is, son, to
select the kind of a wlfo you need and
