The Simple Life
By CHARLES WAGNER
Translated From the French by Mary Louise Hendee

However, '1eT US pe wen understood.
We should not wish to turn any one
away from scrupulous research into
the foundations of morality. No
thought which leads men to concern
themselves once more with these grave
questions could be useless or indiffer-
ent. We simply challenge the thinker
to find a way to wait, till he has un-
earthed these foundations before he
does an act of humanity, of honesty
or dishonesty, of valor or cowardice.
And most of all do-we wish to formu-
late a reply for all the insincere who
have never tried to philosophize and for
ourselves when we would offer our
state of philosophic doubt in justifica-
tion of our practical omissions. From
the simple fact that we are men, be-
fore all theorizing, positive or negative,
about duty, we have the peremptory;
law to conduct ourselves like men.
There is no getting out of it.
But he little knows the resources of
the human heart who counts on the
effect of such a reply. It matters not
that it is itself unanswerable. It can-
not keep other questions from arising.
The sum of our pretexts for evading
duty is equal to the sum of the sands
of the sea or the stars of heaven.
We take refuge, then, behind duty’
that is obscure, difficult, contradictory.
And these are certainly words to call
up painful memories. To be a man of
duty and to question one’s route, grope
in the dark, feel onesclf torn between
the contrary solicitatio s of conflicting
calls, or, again, to face a duty gigantic,
overwhelming, beyond our strength—
what is harder! And such things hap-
pen. We would neither deny nor con-
test the tragedy in certain situations or
the anguish of certain lives. And yet
duty rarely has to make itself plain
across such conflicting circumstances
or to be struck out from the tortured
mind like lightning from a storm
cloud. Such formidable shocks are ex-
ceptional. Well for us if we stand
stanch when they come! But if no one
is astonished that oaks are uprooted
by the whirlwind, that a wayfarer
stumbles at night on an unknown road
or that a soldier caught between twe
fires is vanquished, no more should he
condemn without appeal those who
have been worsted in almost superhu-
man moral conflicts. To succumb un-
der the force of numbers or obstacles
has never been counted a disgrace.
So my weapons are at the service of
those who intrench themselves behind
the impregnable rampart of duty ili
defined, complicated or contradictory.
But it is not that which occupies me
today; it is of plain—I had almost said
easy—duty that I wish to speak.
We have yearly three or four high
feast days and many ordinary ones.
There are likewise some very great and
dark combats to wage, but beside these
is the multitude of plain and simple
duties. Now, while in the great en-
counters our equipment is generally
adequate, it is precisely in the little
emergencies that we are found want-
ing. Without fear of being misled by
a paradoxical form of thought, I af-
firm, then, that the essential thing is
to fulfill our simple duties and exercise
elementary justice. In general, those
who lose their souls do so not because
they fail to rise to difficult duty, but
because they neglect to perform that
which is simple. Let us illustrate this
truth.
He who tries to penetrate into the
humble underworld of society is not
slow to discover great misery, physical
and moral. And the closer he looks
the greater number of unfortunates
does he discover, till in the end this
assembly of the wretched appears tc
him like a great black world, in whose
presence the individual and his means
of relief are reduced to helplessness.
It is true that he feels impelled to run
to the succor of these unfortunates,
but at the same time he asks himself,
“What is the use?’ The case is cer-
fainly heartrending. Some, in despair,
end by doing nothing. They lack
neither pity nor good intention, but
these bear no fruit. They are wrong.
Often a man has not the means to do
good on a large scale, but that is not
a reason for failing to do it at all. Sc
many people absolve themselves from
any action on the ground that there is
too much to do! They should be re-
called to simple duty, and this duty
in the case of which we speak is that
each one, according to his resources,
leisure and capacity, should create re-
lations for himself among the world’s
disinherited. There are people who by
the exercise of a little good will have
succeeded in enrolling themselves
among the followers of ministers and.
have ingratiated themselves with
princes. Why should you not succeed
in forming relations with the poor and
in making acquaintances among the
workers who lack somewhat the ne-
cessities of life? When a few families
are known, with their histories, their
antecedents and their difficulties, you
may be of the greatest use to them by
acting the part of a brother with
the moral and material aid that is
yours to give. It is true you will have
attacked only one little corner, but
you will have done what you could
and perhaps have led another on te
follow you. Instead of stopping at
the knowledge that much wretched-
ness, hatred, disunion and vice exist
in society you will have introduced a
little good among these evils. And by,
however slow degrees such kindness as
yours is emulated the good will sensi-
bly increase and the evil diminish.
Even were you to remain alone in this
undertaking you would have the as-
surance that in fulfilling the duty,
plain as a child’s, which offered itself
you were doing the only reasonable
thing. If you have felt it so, you have
found out one of the secrets of right
living.
In its dreams man’s ambition em-
braces vast limits, but it is rarely giv.
en us to achieve great things, and even
then a quick and sure success always
rests on a groundwork of patient prep-
aration. Fidelity in small things is at
the base of every great achievement.
‘We too often forget this, and yet no
truth needs more to be kept in mind,
particularly in the troubled eras of his-
tory and in the crises of individual life.
In shipwreck a splintered beam, an
oar, any scrap of wreckage, saves us.
On the tumbling waves of life, whe
everything seems shattered to frag-
ments, let us not forget that a single
one of these poor bits may become our
plank of safety. To despise ti» rem-
nants is demoralization.
You are a ruined man, or you are
stricken by a great bereavement, or,
again, you see the fruit of toilsome
years perish before your eyes. You
cannot rebuild your fortune, raise the
dead, recover your lost toil, and in the
face of the inevitable your arms drop.
Then you neglect to care for your per-
son, to keep your house, to guide your
children. All this i. pardonable, and
how easy to understand! But it is ex-
ceedingly dangerous. To fold one’s
hands and let things take their course
is to transform one evil into worse.
You who think that you have nothing
left to lose will by that very thought
lose what you have. Gather up the
fragments that remain to you and keep
them with scrupulous care. In good
time this little that is yours will be
your consolation. The effort made will
come to your relief, as the effort miss-
ed will turn against you. If nothing
but a branch is left for you to cling
to, cling to that branch, and if you
stand alone in defense of a losing cause
do not throw down your arms to join
the rout. After the deluge a few sur-
vivors repeopled the earth. The fu-
ture sometimes rests in a single life
as truly as life sometimes hangs by a
thread. For strength go to history and
nature. From the long travail of both
you will learn that failure and fortune
alike may come from the slightest
cause, that it is not wise to neglect
detail and, above all, that we must
know how to wait and to begin again.
In speaking of simple duty I cannot
help thinking of military life and the
examples it offers to combatants in this
great struggle. He would little under-
stand his soldier's duty who, the army
once beaten, should cease to brush his
garments, polish his rifle and observe
discipline. “But what would be the
use?’ perhaps you ask. Are there not
various fashions of being vanquished?
Is it an indifferent matter to add to de-
feat discouragement, disorder and de-
moralization? No; it should never be
forgotten that the least display of en-
ergy in these terrible moments is a
sign of life and hope. At once every-
body feels that all is not lost.
During the disastrous retreat of 1813-
14, in the heart of the winter, when it
had become almost impossible to pre-
sent any sort of appearance, a general,
I know not who, one morning present-
ed himself to Napoleon in full dress
and freshly shaved. Seeing him thus,
in the midst of the general demoraliza-
tion, as elaborately attired as if for
parade, the emperor said, “My general,
you are a brave man!”
Again, the plain duty is the near
duty. A very common weakness keeps
many people from finding what is near
them interesting; they see that only on
its paltry side. The distant, on the
contrary, draws and fascinates them.
In this way a fabulous amount of good
will is wasted. People burn with ar-
dor for humanity, for the public good,
for righting distant wrongs; they walk
through life, their eyes fixed on mar-
velous sights along the horizon, tread-
| ing meanwhile on the feet of passers-
by or jostling them without being
aware of their existence,
Strange infirmity, that keeps us from
seeing our fellows at our very doors’
People widely read and far traveled
are often not acquainted with their
| fellow citizens, great or small. Their
lives depend upon the co-operation of
a multitude of beings whose ‘lot re.
mains to them quite indifferent. Not
those to whom they owe their knowl-
edge and culture, not their rulers nor
those who serve them and supply their
needs, have ever attracted their atten-
tion. That there is ingratitude or im-
providence in not knowing one’s work-
men, one’s servants—all those, in short,
with whom one has indispensable so-
cial relations—this has never come into
their minds. Others go much further.
To certain wives their husbands are
strangers, and conversely. There are
parents who do not know their chil-
dren; their development, their thoughts,
the dangers they run, the hopes they
cherish, are to them a closed book.
Mang children do not know their par-
ents, have no suspicion of their diffi-
culties and struggles, no conception of
their aims. And I am not speaking of
those npiteously disordered homes
where all the relations are ralse, But
of honorable families. Only all these
people are greatly preoccupied; each
has his outside interest that fills all his
time. The distant duty—very attrac-
tive, I don’t deny—claims them entire-
ly, and they are not conscious of the
duty near at hand. I fear they will
have their trouble for their pains. Each
person's base of operations is the field
of his immediate duty. Neglect this
field, and all you undertake at a dis-
tance is compromised. First, then, bas
of your own country, your own city.
your own home, your own church, your
own workshop; then, if you can, set out
from this to go beyond it. That is the
plain and naturalorder,and a man must
fortify himself with very bad reasons
to arrive at reversing it. At all events,
the result of so strange a confusion of
duties is that many people employ
their time in all sorts of affairs except
those in which we have a right to de-
mand it. Each is occupied with some-
thing else than what concerns him, is
absent from his post, ignores his trade.
This is what complicates life. And it
would be so simple for each one to be
about his own matter.
Another form of simple duty. When
damage is done who should repair it?
He who did it. This is just, but it is
only theory, and the consequence of
following the theory would be the evil
in force until the malefactors were
found and had offset it. But suppose
they are not found, or suppose iney
cannot or will not make amends?
The rain falls on your head through
a hole in the roof or the wind blows
in at a broken window. Will you wait
to find the man who caused the mis-
chief? You would certainly think that
absurd. And yet such is often the prac-
tice. Children indignantly protest, “I
didn’t put it there, and I shall not take
it away!” And most men reason after
the same fashion. It is logic. But it
is not the kind of logic that makes the
world move forward.
On the contrary, what we must learn
and what life repeats to us daily is
that the injury done by one must be
repaired by another. One tears down,
another builds up; one defaces, anoth-
er restores; one stirs up quarrels, an-
other appeases them; one makes tears
to flow, another wipes them away; one
lives for evil doing, another dies for
the right. And in the workings of this
grievous law Iles salvation. This also
is logic, but a logic of facts which
makes the logic of theories pale.
conclusion of the matter is not doubt-
ful. A single hearted man draws it
thus: Given the evil, the great thing is
to make it good and to set about it on
the spot. Well indeed if Messrs. the
Malefactors will contribute to the rep-
aration, but experience warns us not
to count too much on their aid.
But, however simple duty may be,
there is still need of strength to do it.
In what does this strength consist or
where is it found? One could scarcely
tire of asking. Duty is for man an
enemy and an intruder so long as it
appears as an appeal from without.
When it comes in through the door he
leaves by the window; when it blocks
up the windows he escapes by the roof.
The more plainly we see it coming the
more surely we flee. It is like those
police, representatives of public order
and official justice, whom an adroit
thief succeeds in evading. Alas, the
officer, though he finally collar the
thief, can only conduct him to the sta-
tion, not along the right road. Before
man is able to accomplish his duty he
must fall into the hands of another
power than that which says, “Do this,
do that; shun this, shun that, or else
beware!”
This is an interior power; it is love.
When a man hates his work or goes
about it with indifference all the forces
of earth cannot make him follow it
with enthusiasm, but he who loves his
office moves of himself; not only is it
needless to compel him, but it would
be impossible to turn him aside. And
this is true of everybody. The great
thing is to have felt the sanctity and
immortal beauty in our obscure desti-
ny; to have been led by a series of ex-
periences to love this life for its griefs
and its hopes; to love men for their
Jeakness and their greatness and to
belong to humanity through the heart,
the intelligence and the soul. Then an
unknown power takes possession of us,
as the wind of the sails of a ship, and
bears us toward pity and justice, and,
yielding to its irresistible impulse, we
say, “I cannot help it; something is
there stronger than I.” In so saying
the men of all times and places have
designated a power that is above hu-
manity, but which may dwell in men’s
hearts. And everything truly lofty
within us appears to us as a manifes-
tation of this mystery beyond. Noble
feelings, like great thoughts and deeds,
are things of inspiration. When the
tree buds and bears fruit it is because
it draws vital forces from the soil and
receives light and warmth from the
sun. If a man, in his humble sphere,
in the midst of the ignorance and faults
that are his inevitably, consecrates
himself sincerely to his task, it is be-
cause he is'in contact with the eternal
source of goodness. This central force
manifests itself under a thousand
forms. Sometimes it is indomitable
energy; sometimes winning tenderness;
sometimes the militant spirit that
grasps and uproots the evil; sometimes
maternal solicitude, gathering .to its
arms from the wayside where it was
perishing, some bruised and forgotten
life; sometimes the humble patience of
long research. All that it touches bears
its seal, and the men it inspires know
that through it we live and have our
being. To serve it is their pleasure
and reward. They are satisfied to be
its instruments, and they no longer
look at the outward glory of their of-
fice, well knowing that nothing is great,
nothing small, but that our life and
our deeds are only of worth because of
the spirit which breathes through them.

A Girl’s Nature.
Much of a girl’s nature is betrayea
by the little act of brushing a speck
off a man’s coat. If she picks off the
thread or imaginary bit of lint very.
carefully between the thumb and fore-
finger it is an indisputable sign that
she is a woman of a very practical and
executive character.
On the other hand, if a girl should
brush the coat lapel of her fiance very
softly and tenderly with the second
and third finger of her hand in her en-
deavor to remove an invisible speck it
Is a sure sign that she is more senti-
mental than practical. The man who
marries her will live in a continual at-
mosphere of romance and bad house-
keeping.
There is still another type of girl
who will brush the speck off a man’s
coat with a broad sweep of the hand
in which all the fingers and thumb play,
a part. She is in all probability an
athletic girl who excels at tennis, golf
and the links and who will prove a
high spirited, strong minded woman
after marriage.
Then, again, the girl who puts a
flower in a man’s coat with her hand
held jauntily upturned from the wrist
and the flower held in the tips of her
fingers is sure to be something of a
coquette, while the maid who gives
you only the tips of her fingers when
she greets you in the drawing room or
public street is probably an ambitious
girl.--Chicago Jeurnzl

meat, or pay exorbitant prices for tender,
juicy steaks. Good meat is abundant here-
abouts, because good catule sheep and calves
are to be had.
WE BUY ONLY THE BEST
and we sell only that which is good. We don’t
Promiee to Fhe it away, but we will furnish you
OD MEAT, at prices that you have paid
elsewhere for very poor.
GIVE US A TRIAL—
and see if you don’t save in the long run and
