WOLF AT THE DOOR
Py |
Tms isn't a fable, The wolf that
figures in it Is a wolf you've often
heurd of, He's the widely celebrated
wolf-at-the-door,
Most men work all thelr lives to he
rid of him, When he Is gone they stop
working=—and, too often, back he
comes, Only a few get rid of him for
ever, And the gense of security that
takes hig place is considerably more
dangerous than the wolf could possibly
be. '
Most of us need the wolf in our
business, When, of a morning, we
glance out of the window and see him
sitting hungrily on the doorstep we
take more interest In our day's work,
When we are on the Job the thought of
him keeps us hustling, And by keep
fng hustling we put our brain in con
ditlon, which helps a lot with the
next day's work.
The wolfless man {8 a worryless
man, and a worryless man isn't much
use in the world,
The man who knows he can’t be
fired helps very little around an oflice
or shop. Necessity did not limit her
family to the one child—invention,
She i 8 the mother of effort, of achieve
ment, of energy, of industry—a very
goodly brood of children,
If Thomas A, Edison had made a
competence before he was thirty it Is
possible that he would ‘have kept on
working, but we doubt it.
It is true that men long past all fear
of the wolf are still dolng important
work, but they got the habit of work
when the wolf wag leering at them as
they left the house tor the job. The
habit persisted.
Poverty is an ugly thing which we
all should avoid, But the very avoid
ing of it stimulates ambition, brings
out such talents as we may have and
opens our eyes to our own possibili
ties. . ’
In the South Sea Islands the natives
don't have to work. The breadfruit
supjlies their food and kills their am
hi”l)n,
Winter, which we associate with our
friend the wolf, forces men to step
lively on the road to competence. And
the highest achievement is to be found
in the temperate zones, where there
is winter enough to keep men thinking
ahout the coal supply and not enough,
as in the Arctic regions, to keep them
in’ the house all the time,
Don't be afraid of the wolf. He is
evil to look upon, with his red eyes,
and his lolling tongue, but he is one
of the best friends you have got.

A MULTITUDE OF TAILORS
CANNOT MAKE A MAN
({® by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)
To Heligokand for Health,
Heligoland, in the North sea., whose
guns once frowned on England from
Germany, has besn converted into a
health resort for children.
Hundreds of children play on walks
where German soldiers strelled. Grim
fortresses on the island are belug con
verted into living quarters,
. some handsome frult dish I shall
be placed, Yellow mixes well with all
colors,” y
“Oh, yes, 1 know common colors like
vours are needed to set off others, but
pf course, my dear, you cannot expeet
too much, and if some one comes along
looking. for handsome fruit I shall be
the one to be chosen. \
“l 1 expect soon to bhe away from
here, No one can resist my bright red,
so glossy and smooth. Here comes a
lady now, she will be sure to take me,
so I will say good-by, Miss Pear, |
do hope you are chosen sometime
goon and won't have to wither sitting
here on this old fruit cart.” \
But the lady did not select the red
apple. Instead she took the yellow
pear and other fruit as well, but not
the handsome red apple.
“Well such taste as some folks
have,” said the red apple when the
lady had gone. “She will be sorry she
left me behind when she gets home.
That dull old pear and the others will
never make a pretty dish of fruit. She
needs me to give tone and color to
the fruit dish.”
“Perhaps the lady wants to eat the
fruit,” said a big yellow grapefruit,
“and If so, my pretty red apple, she
wants something sweet and not sour
like you. Don't you know that you
have only looks to recommend you?
Why, I heard the fruit man saying you
were as sour as—as—"
“As you,” snapped the red apple. “I
have heard that you are so sour folks
have to put sugar on you."” .
“As sour as a lemon, was what I
intended to say,” replled the grape
fruit.
Just then an old horse hitched to a
wagon standing nearby reached over
and took the apple in his mouth. and
vain red apple had just time to say
before it disappeared: “Oh, what a
fate for one so beautiful as 1, to be
eaten by an old work horse, whea I
should have graced a table.”
