"But," he says, "a young man has seriously to consider what success really is, and to make sure that he is nut setting out in life to chase phan- toms." Use ul:1es, goodness, and happiness are suggested as the three ideals in life which a young mall should keep before hilts, the lest named being the reward of the otlttlr two virtues. "The highest ambition of a young malt embarking on his maser, and working mit tire strategy of his life, Should be to win a reputation as one who never dodge, hard work, never shirks reepoueibility, turd never for - fele; line self-esteem by lowering his standard of rigbt dealing," says 11Ir.

"Look here," said their father, im- p•atiently, "I've brought you boys out. for a happy day, and you've got to be happy; go and play in that field, and if you aren't happy in ten minutes I'll give all three of you a good hiding un til you are happy." Some people's ideas of happiness are almost as quaint, and the man who tries to force it by piling up wealth will never succeed. Incidentally it is pointed out that a young man's greatest iuh'erit>ance is his character. Many a son has been ruined because a father lett him a for- tune. Who shall count the number of sons saved because a father left them a character? Tolerance. "John said unto Him, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in thy name. And we forbad him, because he followed not us, And Jesus said unto him, forbid hint not, for there is no one that can do a mighty work in my behalf and be able to speak lightly of me." Much hdetory is the history of intolerance. But that is not of Christ. He said we are to love God with our four -fold powers—mina, body, spirit and soul, and our neighbor as ourself. That attitude is not past, but we hope it is slowly dying, that it will, like the monsters of the ice age, be- come an extinct species. There is much talk of the organized forces of Christianity getting together. In fact, they are already together in ways not commonly supposed. But they must in time come closer, and there will be one Lord and one faith, according to the Bible ideal. But tolerance ought never to mean the want of strong be- lief in what is right and wrong. It is possible to believe everything, and so believe nothing, A nlau said to me once, "I don't care what a man's re- I Iigiot is, so long as he lives it." He might as well have said, "I don't care what a man's politics are, so long as I he lives them." Bolshevism is one kind of politics. Would he like to have j his neighbors become Bolshevists, and appropriate his farm and his home? Anorohy is one form of polities.l Would he like to see his house in flames., some night? It does matter mightily what a man believes, wheth- er it be in religion or politics. To tolerate others' opinions is good, but there are some things we must not tolerate. Intolerance becomes a vir- tue, beyon,tnei certain point, and I am not certain but we need an inacula- tion of intolerance to -day, And good- will is always intolerant, yet always tolerant, Christ was the most tolerant of leaders, yet against wrong, inju.s- Lice spiritual blindness; claws hate, he was a flakne of intolerance. It is all a matter of being tolerant at the right place. St— A Nasty, Rude Boy, J•oh'nny had been using some very unparliamentary Iangne , Much to hie mother's distreew.
