To the Young Men of Pike.
NUMBER TWO.
In my last article 1 sought to
impress that every sane man has
some special talent, and that suc
cess ltes only in the line of finding
out what that special talent is, and
then engaging in that avocation or
profession for which nature has lit
hflfhim.
In this communication, I wish to
discuss money-making and money
saving, (lot? intends that every
body shall make more or less mon
ey, for there is not a legitimate,
honorable pursuit or profession in
the world but will yield a reasona
ble eompensation to the man fitted
for and industriously engaged in it.
God has given us these occupations
lienee he expects us to make money
iv engaging in them. Again, God
Vnds that men shall lay up mon
pr emergencies and old age, for
Aon we are sick or old, we are un
- .fide to suppoit ourselves, and our
Greater intends that wo shall then
live on what we have saved up while
healthy and strong.
I say to you then, young gentle
men, make all the money you can
make honestly by reasonable perso.
nal effort. God has implanted this
'wlcsire to make money into men’s
nearts, partly to induce them to
make earnest, persistent effort in
their chosen life-work. Men who
have no desire to make money are
not usually energetic men. But,
young friends, remember that I
said, and repeat it, make it honest
ly. Deal justly with everybody.
The tendency of the time is to
make money anyhow, without re
gard to the principle involved in
making it. A dollar is a beautiful
useful and valuable thing, but a
young man can’t afford to lie for
it* or steal for it, either directly or
indirectly. When a man receives
a dollar as compensation for work
worth a dollar, lie has done a kind ;
act to the balance of mankind, for
he has made the world one dollar
richer; while he who dishonestly
gets a dollar has made somebody
poorer, put ill gotten gain into his
own pocket, andhasdone the world
no good. Just in this place I wouid
attention to a great mistake
A any men are making. God has
given many men more muscle than
miiul, more brawn than brain,
clearly meaning by this that He
intends such men to live by physi
cal labor rather than by mental
work. But unfortunately many
such persons have simply got the
thing backwards, and instead of
trying to live by actual physical
work, they are trying to pull
through by their wits. More,
while God gives some men power
ful-muscle and not much mind, lie
gives nobody mind without giving
them muscle, and mind and muscle
paired together mean thought and
work. Young friends, don’t he
afraid of work, what the world calls
hard work. A man who won’t work
is a drone, and a drone is a failure
everywhere in God’s creation.
Don’t conclude that work is a
curse. There is nothing that is pro
ductive of more solid contentment
aijd pleasure than honest labor. It
gives health of body, of mind, and
is a powerful influence in making
men better. Roll up your sleeves,
young men, see what a grand capi
tal God has given you in hard, ;
strong, durable muscles. He meant I
•something by giving you such a val
uable present. Take the hint, un
lock your capital, ami put it into
operation. Again, work steadily
■am constantly. The world does
■not run by fits and starts, and then
stop awhile. A farmer can’t suc
ceed only by working six or seven
months in the year. He may be I
able to cultivate and gather his 1
crop in that time or a little longer,
butthatisnot near all of farming. 1
To be sure men ought to recreate |
some and visit more than some of!
•ns do, but we ought to divide up !
onr time so as to give work much ;
•over half.
In conclusion for this ttme, for a
young man to succeed he must
plunge into work, and stick to it,
making all the money he can hon
estly.

Byron’s Views of Life.
Byron says: “Life is at best an
evil, and pain and misery track the
happiest.
It we could say of any life that it
is an evil we might say it of By
ron’s life, for, while there is embod
ied in some of his poems all that is
grand and sublime in the majority
a selfish, egotistical, sensual ele
ment pervades the whole; or there
is a strange commingling of the
good and the bad, the pure and the
impure the skeptical and the relig
ious.
If such a chaos be placed before
the untrained, youthful mind, what
j will be the result but bewilderment
and confusion as to the truth? By
! ron has the faculty of veiling the
| bad and dazzling our eyes by a
j blaze of beautiful language thus
j hiding the real unworthiness of the
object.
Many of his poems he himself
j confesses were written just to “make
| a row,” a worthy motive. And in
boys ami girls of a “larger growth,”
they succeed in creating a contempt
ami hatred for all that is pure and
good; then why feed the spotless
minds of children upon such foul
reading? Wait at least till they are
able to judge of the wonlh of the
sentiment ho utters from their ex
perience with such authors as
Shakspeare, who presents the evil
in its true light, or Longfellow and
Whittier, and others, who show ,'us
the good, pure side of life and the
sacredness of home and religion,
while, with Byron, such themes
were objects of mirth as much as
of serious meditation.
He was extremely selfish, as is
plainly seen in all his writing. He
calls his readers “but degraded, an
imated dust,” yet demands their
sympathy for his weaknesses, sins
and errors.
It is not denied that there is some
good in his writings, but it is of
such a weak, wavering nature that
the brilliancy of the bad quite over
powers it.
He sometimes expresses passion
to such o degree as you can scarce
ly conceive a man capable of. In
deed, helms been called the poet
of passion. I repeat, do not put
works of such a wild, fierce, inex
plicable character in the hands of
young people when he admits that —
“From my youth upward
My spirit walked not with the souls of men.
Nor looked upon the earth with human
eyes.”

Dr. F. F. Taber, Atlanta, (hi.: Dear Sir: For
ten years I suffered from plies. I tried the
doctor und tho doctors tried me. I tried al
most every remedy I could bear of from old
men and women in the country. I tried all
the salves, ointments, greases and patent med
icines I could hear of. Intact, I tried almost
everything except the ligature and surgeons
knife, which 1 dreaded, but looked to as a last
resort. Nothing did me any good. I grew
worse day after day, month after month, year
after year. When I came to you my suffering
had become absolutely unbearable. At times
my pain was so intense that I eoukl not sit,
stand still, or lay down, but walk, walk, walk,
walk, and suffer the agony of torture. At this
time I bad piles, fissure and rectal ulcer. You
offered to euro me, and gave the guaranty of
cure—“No cure, no pay.” Under your treat
ment I improved rapidly, and am now well of
that fearful disease—cured! without the liga
