"No man." he said, "who devotes himself to unbridled passion can find any excuse for himself in the life of Jesus of Nazareth. "Another pleasure upon which there is a great deal of divided opinion is drink. Not only am I an advocate of temperance, but I choose for myself the narrow road of total abstinence. While it is true that some meii can drink moderately, and it may be true that a glass of beer or wine is not more harmful than a cup of tea or coffee, it certainly is better not to begin drinking. "The simple game of cards among friends may be a pleasure when too much time is not wasted. There may be nothing degenerating in the game itself, but it is certainly true that the playing of cards among women at social gatherings, which is so often prevalent today playing for money as ;s the almost invariable habit does a great deal of harm. Gambling is never right. ' Dancing is an amusement that used to be associated with moral and physical harm. There was a time when my dear mother u&ed to think that it did more injury than good to the youth of the country. To people whose minds are naturally morbid dancing may be harmful, but with people who dance among friends in a proper environment, and with happy and healthful thoughts,-the pleasure to be attained is good and useful. I think thnt even my mother would agree that if good hours are kept and the pastime is indulged in not promiscuously, there is no harm in it. As to Extravagance. "Extravagance is a pleasure thai very many men and women indulge in to the injury of themselves and thenfriends. As we walk through the business streets of our city we see very many haggard faces, many desperately hopeless men. They are spending more than their incomes. Many of them do it to gratify their own natures, others do it to gratify wives families and the end is apprehension, worry, care and misery, perhaps catastrophe and death."' Mr. Rockefeller said that the greatest pleasures. in the world were tho-e that come from a sense of having done good to others. He commended sports and the pleasure of social intercou rse.

He Also Claimed That Strict Temperance Should Be the Rule of All Lives, Particularly Young Men.

New York, Dec. 14. In an addres.-s before eighty-six young men, J. D. Rockefeller, jr.. talked on "Pleasures."' "The making of money is another pleasure that many men are fitted io enjoy. Them are men who have n peculiar aptitude for making money. If it is made honestly, without harm to the community and with no thouyiit of using it for evil or selfish ends. I can not see why this pursuit of happiness is more injurious than the pursuit of power, which so many men and women practice for good ends. "The result of wealth and the power that wealth brings, should be for the betterment of or fellowinen and the country that we are so proud to call our own. It is possible to do a great

deal of good with money made honest-!

ly, and it is a good sign of the times that so many of our money makers devote the wealth that they have got to founding good and useful institutions for the bettering; of their follows. Hut when one makes money simply for the selfish exercise of power, it is uot only harmful to th? money maker, but to the community." Doesn't Know Spades From Hearts.
