There Is Plenty of Time.
Find time for pleasure-seeking and fun-making. Do not be in a hurry; your work, if you should drop out, would have to be done by some one else, and the world care very little for the change. You are not a slave. No man or set of men have a right to command your time oae moment beyond the point that you consent to give to them. Hence you need not worry and fret, and try and toil as if under the driver’s lash. Go slow. Take ; it easy. Have fun—work—accumulate, ! but amidst all your gains count the joy- j ous moments you have as the soundest i and the best of your investments. 80, ! | Patrons, study not how you may get more i j riches, but rather how you may take from ; : property all that in it Is worth the hav- i ing—its power of yielding comfort. If j you fail in this jou do not get your j j money’s worth, anti have but one reward | for your sacrifice, and that reward is the i happy reflection that you have tugged, | and toiled, and fretted to save money | for an ungrateful son or worthless soni in-law to squander. Shame on the man I or woman who will be so unkind to their ; poor craven selves as to forget that this world owes them what they owe to the world. Go in for fun, we say.
