the heart of every individual there
are arribitioes and hopes the fulfilment
of which we fency wouldrbring us liap-

virtue. „.
The human heart, however, has per-
, verted the true idea 'of .ambition's goal,
which is greatness, until to -day only
thoee who can purchase the services el
many are known as the mighty OrleiS.
--
On the Other hand, thosethat knew
ctntyeriecessity are the degraded.
This is because the lust,' of power Is
abro4d.' All desire to conunand ;- none
wishes to serve. A SolOn touching the
. height of intellectual desire seeks the
influence which such fame secures. A
s Lydian king would hate his gold but
for the social ',plane to Which it lifts°
hirer. The philanthropist doling out his
surplus dividends seeks therein the ap-
plause of the populace'. Wherein dif-
feregthe'rustic whose ambition- is to ee
elhe best boxer on the village green
.from . the Caesars of the world?
Wherein differs the politician from the
aocial leader? Are not all striving
after the,same idea -to be 'first? '"It is
more secure to 'be In a state of sub-
Jection than in authority," says the
"Imitation," and Christ s Condemns

When He says es -"How can ye believe
when ye receive glory one from another,
and the glory which is from God alone
' ye do not seek?"
His standard of excellence lies in the
;service of God, not in the service cf
Self ; and the setvice of God shows it-
self largely in the Service we give our
neighbor for His sake. "For the Son of
Man came not to be ministered unto,
.but to minideei'ae and to give his life a
'ransom for mahy." And when the Mas -
der .sought to teach this same lesson to
His Apostles, He said ;-"The kings of

there is no respect of. persona. * '"Whe

THE BEET AND HOW TO SERVE IT
The value of the beet has become more
' eVrenerally recognized the past decade,
--ecause of its proven capacity as aosu-
gar-producer. While there is a great

ties of beets than M others, all beet

consideration when reckoning its food
value for human beings. There le coin-
paratively little. of the nitrogeneous ele-
ment in the beet the mineral and. car-
bonaceous elements forming its bulk

time immemorial the red beet's abilit

accepted as a proven fact.' But the bee
has too much sugar in it to be indidge

a tendency to stoutness. AVoid using

are large enough to cook, scrape them.

worth, $5,000,000 was buried by pirates
on the island in 1832. Nothing, how-
