The Tallest Trees Are Beautiful,
But Much Mere in the Power
of High Winds
Known te almost everybody are incidents of men
and families with humble beginnings, whose children,
by dint of hard study te learn things and harder work
afterward te obtain wealth and position, were
comfortable and highly respected; until the chance
of promotion In the financial world, or net infrequently,
the rising te public office, lifted them up te jealousies,
oppositions, calumnies and temptations that smashed,
spoiled and embittered their lives, with the result that
in periods of business difficulties they ended premising
careers as defaulters, absconders and in wretched
disgrace.
Every city can furnish illustrations of the danger
of the blasts that strike the people and objects-highest
up.
Mr. Man, keep a geed lookout yourself!
