But in spire of ilils is it not for better to follow the longings and desires of 3'0“? own heart, knowing them to be noble, whether SllCll a course brings you wealth or not? A STUDENT OF LIFE. t Answer: The chief aim and ambition of life, it seems to me, should be to so live that you \vill be 0i use to your day and generation and to make the world a better place because you have lived in it. Whatever way you do this does not matter. It is merely a means to an end. Great teachers, great writers. great artists. great philanthropists, great railroad builders, great mechanics, great financiers all do this, each in his awn way. Millions of people will live to hearty old age who ivoulcl have died lf Mr. l-‘tockfellcr had not made enough mouev to endow great firstl- lutions whore scientists can search for the causes of disease and find cures for them. Millions of people sit in lightnessbecause Edison has lived. Mil- llons-of poor nnimals are not tortured because Bergh lived. Millions of women have the vote because Sun B. Anthony lived. And so it goes through all the long line of men and women who have brought us the blessings of . civilization. To make the piling up of a fortune the sole aim and object of ones life ls a poor ambition, and to leave nothing behind but a little horde of gold when one dies is a pitiful monument to ones failure as a human being. For nn man has a right to live to himself alone and spend his time and ener- gies and talents lust for his own benefit. There is his debt to others that he must pay as his only justification in living. Nevertheless, for all of that, it is foolish to deprecate the importance of mortar-making and toput it, as is so often done, in the category of un- worthy Pursuits. It is as much a mans duty to be a money-maker ns it ls to ivorforin any other of the obligations of life. being mnoble and heroic figure who despises the sordid things of earth, he merely becomes a contcmptible parasite. For even heroes have to be fed and clothed and housed. and if they cannot provide for themselves somebody else has to work overtime to do it. for them. ‘They literally take the bread out of other peoples‘ mouths and the clothes off of their backs, and all of us have seen these contemptuous money scorners living on the brothers end sisters and parents they despised. _ In my opinion the man and woman who refuse to work and support themselves, and those who. are so extravagant that they lay up no money for their old age, are just as much thieves as any highwaymen who hold their victims up at the pistol-point and rob them of their hard-earned money. a Of course, it is better to follow the desira of your own heart, provided they lead in the right direction. If the desires of your heart are for loaf- Jng and idling and sitting in the sun and dreaming dreams, then it is sel- flfihnfll-Bnd i011)’ and weakness to follow them. DOROTHY DIX. » O O O O O O D531‘ M155 Bib-MY sister and I are two young girls who live in a house °f dlscilrdr We clmlwt P8681! B day when there has not. been someterrlble quarrels between our father and mother. He is a habitual drunkard who has ruined my mother's life and causes my sister and I nothing but sorrow and humiliation. The result is we are both getting-morbid and pessimistic and my sister is becoming more irritable and disagreeable every day, what; can I do to comfort and help mother and keep my sister and myself young and optimistic? I am Just sunk in this bog of family woe. 1315115; Answer: Perhaps if you girls would talk it all over frankly with your mother and make her realize how the atmosphere of your home is ruining your lives you wind “Mk Wt 50""! Dian that would at least lessen the gloom that dark- ens your girlhood. . If your father is a habitual drunk nrd, nothing can be done to change him. i, fjIe probably is a victim of his vice and cannot escape from it if he would, so you will have to accept him as just one of the fixed facts that you cannot alter. Perhaps it. would be better for your mother to take you girls and cstnbliih a home away from him in which you could live ln peace Per- haps this is not feasible. You will have to judge of that yyourscl . - 3m M any rate Your mother, ,who is in full possession of hcr faculties, can refrain from quarrcling with him and making dailyscenes that make your homo a place of strife and turmoil. It takes two to make a quarrel, and l! she will refuse to be party to one, thefc will be no dispute. It merely requires an effort of the will to refrain from quart-cling. Ygraut you that it is pretty hard to give the soft. answer that. turneth ‘hwoy wrath to a sot and that it requires a lot of forbearance to refrain from telling him what she thinks of him, and that it: takes real heroism to keep from reproaching him with all that he has made hcr suffer But it can be Oionflmcl it seems to me that any mother should be willing to make the e1. tort and the sacrifice to save her youngllaughters from having their whole now learn , value of rcsune v- so o u lnku n ' n iii: i.

He feels that marriage would be very unfair to me since he is educating his three children and is also paying alimony. He has no money, but makes a good salary. Ho tells me that it would be unnatural for my love to stand the test, but I would gladly share the good and bad with him. We will greatly np- preciste your settling this problem for us. MARY AND JACK. Answer: . If you were younger, Mary, I should side with Jack and think that per- haps your love would not. be able to stand the strain of limited means and of knowing that most that he mode went to another woman and her child- ren, but at 2a the modern young women ls sophisticated and knows herself sufficiently well to know what she wants and to be able to determine what price she is willing to pay for love. Hence I think you will both be sofa in getting married and that Mary will not regret it. After all, when two people hove love and congenlnllty and companionship, they don't need very much also. Home of the happiest couples I know are poor in this world's goods, but they are millionaires in affection. To paraphrase the old laying, they have plain living but high loving. Also, the fut. that lhry is o trained business woman makes ll. safer for her to take o chance on moi-tying a mln who has other obligations than it would if the were one of the helpless, untrained females or the put. for in cane of sickness or misfortune or anything happening to Jack she would always have something to fall beck upon . . i The kind of love that lflOlOl a mm went to protect o wormn even against himself, and the kindcf-lovo that mun a women mm to nwrlfloe herself for n man. no too fore "and beautiful to be lost bocouu of o fur of ‘v _-,flqhfl\loln J poverty.
