Failure.
“Failure,” says Keats, “is, in a sense,
the highway to success, inasmuch as
every discovery of what is false leads
us to seek earnestly after what is true,
and every fresh experience points out
some form of error which we shall
afterward carefully avoid.”
Defeats and failures have played a
great part in the history of success.
It is not pleasant to think that more
or less of defeat is absolutely neees
sary to great success, But that it is
true every student of history knows.
Defeats and failures are great devel¬
opers of character. They are the gym¬
nasia which have strengthened the
muscles of manhood, the stamina, the
backbone which have won victories.
They have made the giants of the race
by giving titanic muscles, brawny
sinews, far reaching intellects.
How true it is that poverty often
hides her charms under ugly masks!
Thousands have been forced Into great¬
ness by their very struggle to keep
the wolf from the door. She is often
the only agent nature can employ to
call a man out of himself and push
him on toward the goal which she had
fitted him to reach. Nature cares little
for his ease and pleasure. It Is the
naan she is after, and she will pay any
price or resort to any expedient to
lure him on. She masks her own ends
in man’s wants and urges him onward,
oftentimes through difficulties and ob¬
stacles which are well nigh disheart¬
ening, but ever onward and upward
toward the goal.—Register.
The Boy Who Learned the Way,
He was very young—about 13—this
boy who spent most of his time in the
studios watching the artists draw and
paint and wishing he could do the
same.
“What kind of pencils do you use?”
he said one day, and they gave him
one of the kind. That night he tried to
make a figure lie had seen one of the
artists draw, .it seemed so easy. But
he could not do the .same kind of work.
“Perhaps I haven’t the right kind of
paper,” he reasoned, “1 will get a
piece tomorrow.” Even the right kind
of paper did not help him any.
“I need a studio and an easel,” was
his next conclusion. “I have the de¬
sire; surely all I need now are the
necessary surroundings.”
A few years of Impatient waiting
passed before he secured the “neces¬
sary surroundings," and when he had
them all and still found it Impossible
to draw the truth dawned upon him.
“I know what is wrong,” he cried,
throwing down his pencil. “I know
nothing of the principles of art.
must learn them first.”
He was still young when his name as
a great painter was known on two con¬
tinents, He had learned the “prinei
pie.” A bit of brown paper and a
burned match would then enable him
to draw as easily as all the art essen¬
tials.— Ann Partlan in Succes s.

“Yours is a perplexing case,” said the
oculist. “You call red purple and refer
to nile green as turkey red.”
“Yes,” replied the visitor, with a con¬
tented smile. “1 fancy I was bom that
way. ’
“It’s the most aggravated case of col¬
or blindness I have ever encountered
In my professional experience.”
“That’s it. I want yon to write me
out a statement to that effect Never
mind what the fee is. You see, my
wife has a lot of samples she wants
matched, and she’ll ask me to tackle
the job some time next week for cer¬
tain.”
And then the oculist bad his suspi¬
cions.—Pearson’s Weekly.
Mexico's Rainy 8**uion.
What they call the 6 rainy season 8 In
Mexico comes only in the form of
.
showers, which fall In the afternoon.
These showers usually occur every
day, bat sometimes there will be two
or three days of perfectly clear weath¬
er. There ia no steady downpour, bow
as In most tropical countries, and
In Mexico the rainy season is regarded
as the finest season of the year.
