Worldly success is anatmosphere Jeal- that breeds the maggots of envy and ousy Ana hate. There are those who will never forgive you if you have more emolu¬ ments or honor or ease than they have. To take you down is the dominant wish of most of those who are not as hlgli as you are. They will spend hours and days and years to entrap you. They will hover uround newspaper oAloes to get one mean line printed depreciating you. Your heaven is their hell. A dying President of the United States said mauy years ago in regard to Ills Ufa- time of experience, ‘‘It doesn’t pay.” The leading statesmen of America In letters of advice warn young men to keep out of polities. Many of the most successful have tried in vain to drown their trouble in strong drink. On the other hand, there uro millions of people who on departing but this life will have nothing to leave a good name and a life Insurance whose illumined faces are indices of illumined souls.

That is a principle settled ln U Another thing decided in that high place is that this world is a schoolhouse or col- lege for splendid or disgraceful grmlua- tion. We begin in the freshman class of good or evil and then pass into the sopho- more aud then into the junior and then Into the senior, and from that we graduate angels or devils. In many colleges there ls an “elective course,” where the student selects what lie will study—mathematics or the languages or ohemistry or philoso- phy—and it Is an elective course we all take In the sehoolhouse or university of this world. We may study sin until we are saturated with it or righteousness until we ace exem- plillcatious of it. Graduate we all must, but we decide for ourselves the style of graduation. It is an elective course. We can study generosity until our every word and every act and every contribution of money or time will make the worid better, or we may study meanness until our soul shall shrink up t) a smallness unimagina- ble. tVe may .under God, •ducate ourselves in¬ to a self control that nothing eau anger or into an irascibility that will ever and anon keep our face flushed with wrath aud every nerve a-qulver. Great old sehoolhouse of a world in which we are all being educated for glory or perdition! Some have wondered why graduation day in college is'called ‘’commencement day” when it is the last day of college es- ercises, but graduation days are properly called commencement day. To all the graduates It is the commencement of active lite, and our graduation day from earth will be to us commencement of our chief life, our larger life, our more tremendous life, our eternal life. But what a day eom- meneement day on earth is! The student never sees any day like it. At any rata, I never did. When Pompey landed at Brindisi, Italy, returned from hts victories, he disbanded the brave men who had fought under him nnd sent them rejoicing to their home3, and, entering Rome, his emblazoned ehariot was followed by princes in chains from kingdoms ho had conquered, and flowers such as only grew under those Italian skies strowed the way, and he came under arches inscribed with the numas of battlofleldj on which he had triumphed and rode by columns which told of the 1500 cities ho had destroyed and the 12 000,000 people he had eon- quered or slain. Then the banquet was spread, and out of the chalices tilled to the brim they drank to the health of the conqueror. Belisarius, the great soldier, returned from tits military achievements and was robed ln purple, and in the pro- cession were brought golden thrones aud pillars ot precious stones and the turnl- ture ot royal feasts, and amid the spleu- dors ot kingdoms overcome he was hailed to the hippodrome by shout3 such as had seldom rung Jthrough the capital. Then also ciirae the convivialities. In the year 374 Aurelian made his entrance to Rome in triumphal car, in whioh he stood while a wlnged figure of Victory held a wreath above his head. Zenobia, captive chariot, queen of Palmyra, walked behind his her person encircled with fetters of gold, un¬ der the weight of which she nearly fainted, but still a captive. And there were in the procession 200 lions and tigers and beasts of many lauds and 1000 gladiators excused from the cruel amphitheater that they might decorate the day, and Persian and Arabian and Ethiopian embassadors were in the procession aud the long lines of cap¬ tives, Egyptians, Syrians, Gauls, Goths and Vandals. It was to such scenes that the Now Tes¬ tament refers when it spoke ot Christ "having despoiled principalities and pow¬ ers, He made a show of them, openly tri¬ umphing.” But, oh, the difference in those triumphs! Tne Roman triumph rep¬ resented arrogance, cruelty, oppression and wrong, but Christ’s triumph meant emancipation and holiness and joy. The former was a procession of groans accom¬ panied procession by a clank of chains, millions the other a of hosannas by set for¬ ever free. The only shackled ones ot Cbrist’3 triumph will be satan aud his cohorts tied to our Lord’s chariot wheel, with all the abominations of all the earth bound for an eternal captivity. Then will come a feast in which the chalices will be filled "with the new wine ot the kingdom.” Under arches commemora¬ tive of all tho battles in which the bannered armies of the church militant through 1 thousands of years of struggle have at last won the day Jesus will ride. Conqueror of earth nnd hell and heaven. Those armies, disbanded, will take palaces and thrones. “And they shall come from the East and the West and the North and the South and sit down ln the kingdom of God.” And may you and I, through tbepardoniug and, sanctifying grase of Christ, he guests at that reyal baaquetl t pear in man puces, The Psychologloal Views of * Famous Stseple-Cllmber. c P.

MR, ASTOR'S SOLITARY LIFE Sees Few Americans and Seldom Goes Out to Dinner. William Waldorf Astor, owner of the Pall Mall Gazette, according to a Lon¬ don dispatch, leads a very solitary life.

G. Muller of Taos, “is a great deert. sThe early Spanish adventurers named the desert the ‘Jouruado del muerto,’ the journey of death. “A friend of mine recently attempted a daring feat on the desert. He had a flock of 20,000 sheep on the border of Mexico, and resolved to drive the sheep across the desert into the pastures of New Mexico, which were reported to bo in unusually good condition at the time. The journey across the desert required seven days. The weather was insufferably hot, and not a drop of water was to be found ln the entire distance. Lneklly, the hot winds which often carry death in their breath, did not materialize during the week of the trip, and the tedious Journey was ac¬ complished without any loss. On reaching the northern boundary of the desert a river of cool, flowing water was reached. The sheep plunged in and dMttk to their fill. As a result 4,000 sheep died ln a few hours. “It was a great mistake,” said the 'sheep man, “for the drivers to allow the sheep to drink so heavily. If they had kept the flock ln motion crossing the stream no danger would have been inflicted. Once I drove a big flock two days and a half in hot weather, with¬ out reaching a single stream of water. Knowing that we were about to cross a small'river I directed the drivers un¬ der no circumstances to permit the sheep to stop ln crossing the stream. We got through in good shape and suf¬ fered no loss whatever. From years of experience on the ranges of the Southwest I am convinced the sheep can do without water for two or three days at a time without permanent in¬ jury. If sheep are watered once in two days they will get along well enough.” Bow Arc Tour Sidoeyi f The Cheerful Idiot. ‘■When melancholy marks a man for her o\rn,” asked the smart boarder, ‘‘how dods she mark him?” ‘•Colors him blue, of course,” replied the cheerful idiot ln scorn. “A Great Blessing,” says Mr. J.
