When I was twenty-one Father gave me a little stake arid A lot of good advice and told me To shift for myself for awhile.

Well, sir, I found some lots for sale In an attractive residence sec tion—a bargain— And I made a payment down and R» v e My note for the balance and Before the note matured I sold Those lots at a handsome profit, and then I turned in and bought some more lots And built an apartment house and now It is paid for and the rentals yield me An income—and I am no expense to father.

HARRISBURG £§£s& TELEGRAPK NOVEMBER 12, 1915 HARDY LIFE IN A HARD LOT I Daniel in the King's Court Is Worfd's Temperance Lesson IN PALACE PRISON Hebrew Quartet Upset All Ideas of llow to "Keep Fit" n> WIIiTiIAM T. ELLIS A sort of patron saint for to-day is Daniel. The dare-to-do-and-to-defy type of manhood seems increasingly the vogue. Stalwarts are readier to stand up and be counted. "Virility" is a word in many vocabularies. The man who dares to put his foot on pre vailing usages is no longer counted "queer" to the extent that he once was. "I've cut it out" may be heard any day now concerning liquor in the best circles of young men. To have something to stand up for. and even to suffer for, is a twentieth century murk of manhood. The bullous and Jaundice-eyed folk who are sure that the world is going to the dogs are blind, blind, blind. What means this unparalleled heroism on the world's battlefield? Is it not the discovery by millions that life holds things worth dying for? The supreme goal is not to find existence pleasant, but to make It noble. There are hosts of young-men in our land who can match Daniel point for point in his dauntless devotion to ideals. Whoever says that heroism is dead has his face in a corner. Why, heroism is only coming into its own. The army that is flying the flags of great ideals is great ,and growing, and conquering our time. Anybody who cannot see that there is a goodly fel lowship to-day of the Daniel type sim ply is not aware of his own ♦imes. In a Palace Prison "Prosperity" is the life slogan of the Ignoble. That man is a bad citizen who puts "good business" above duty, honor and righteousness. If to be comfortable and prosperous wore the supreme end of life, then Daniel and his three friends would have been Jus tified in settling down complacently in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar; for they had fine food, luxurious raiment and all the comforts of a palace en vironment. in the capital of tT:o >orld. They might have said "What mit'er to use the old fogey notions ba ik in Judea. or the woes of these Ji'Sow exlles? We ourselves are personally prosperous. Is not that enough?" The young men were in a palace, but that palace was a prison. Its luxury was heathen, sinful and enervating. To have fallen easily into its routine, "To do in Home as the Romans d 0.." would have been to deny their religion and their race: their homes and their God. The sumptuous food that was offered them was idol-tainted: the life was soft, sensual and wholly contrary to the standards revealed to Moses. So Daniel and his friends would have none of it. These four belonged to that great company who have the courage and the vision to pursue a life of Ideals, even amid ignoble surroundings. Doubtless, if they resembled some of us, they would have first whined a great deal about their hard lot, and then succumbed to it. The problem of these four youths in ancient Baby lon is a present one for myriads of rpen and wom«-n. whose lot lies In an atmosphere tainted with irreverence and coarseness, but who never strike the white flag of a clean life. These, like Daniel, are standing by their prin ciples in shop and factory and office and school, where all the influences seem hostile to the development of a spiritual life. Tlie Coddled Rats As pampered Oriental favorites, these four, who were chosen to serve in the Icing's own presence, might have been wrapped in self-indulgence and luxury, yet they tactfully refused the proffered wines and meats.

The touch of religion, back in Judea, upon his youth was bearing its natural fruit. He had 6oth courage and the skill to plead successfully for permission to go upon a vegetarian diet. Simple living and }iigh thinking have always kept house to«ether. I heard but vestcrday of a man who belongs to a family of fat folk. He decided that for himself he would not grow to coarseness. So he holds himself to a rigid regimen of exercise and diet. Only twice a year—at Christmas and Thanksgiving—does he eat all he would like to eat. Every day he rides fifteen miles on a bicycle. The result is that he has won perfect health and a superb efficiency, as by-products of his original purpose. These results always accomnany self-discipline, even as the trees which stand alone in the lield, buffeted by every wind that blows. produce lumber of finer, stronger fiber than those which rise in the sheltered forests. If Daniel had known the teachings of modern science he could not have acted more wisely. In the University of Pennsylvania they have been ex perimenting with some five thousand rats, and the professor reports that the second and third generation of rodents, and carefully nurtured in captivity, have become enervated by this coddling. The reporter of the ex periments remarks that rats are chosen because their reactions are so akin to those of the human body. We scarcely need to go to the laboratory to learn that lesson. Everybody has seen how spoiled boys amount to least. The percentage of the sons of favored cir cumstances who come to greatness is tragically small. Those who win to worth by self-dlscipllne are ever the ones who win other crowns. What says Browning: "When the fight begins within himself A man's worth something. God stoops o'er his head. Satan looks up between his feet —both tug— He's left, himself in the middle; the soul wakes and grows." A Good Man to Live With It (iuite upsets some folks' notions of religion that this Hebrew quartet under rigid regimen became the best looking and the most agreeable and the most efficient youths in the palaco. According to the conventional cult, they ought, to have been wan from weeping and hollow-eyed from sleep less nights of anxiety. Instead, they were palace favorites. They com mended their religion and their cause by graciousness and courtesy, thus en hancing their power in every direction. No sour-vlsaged saints were Daniel and the three. "He sins against virtue who makes goodness unattractive." If your religion does not make you easier to live with, it certainly is not of the same stock that Daniel transplanted from Judea to Babylon. Doubtless some of the Psalms of David resounded in the quarters of the Hebrews in Nebuchadnezzar's palace, but nabodv ever heard from them any ancleni versions of "Km. to be nothing, nothing!". Not * bit of it! They wanted to be the best possible for God. They saw CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years z&: that Jehovah needs men of force and fineness to represent Htm in high places. Every first-class Christian is the best advertisement of the Gospel. There are a lot of misguided folk spending time in coddling their own souls and speculating about their own spiritual condition who ought to be out doing things worth while in the name of the living God. Religion be longs in the palace, even if it has to get there by way of the servants' quar ters. as was the case with the house hold of Nebuchadnezzar and of Caesar. Efficiency and Religion "Prove us!" cried Daniel to the mas ter steward. That is it: religion asks no odds, and it will stand any acid. If Christianity does not work out into efficiency, there is something wrong in the process. This is the test which the hard-headed twentieth century in creasingly applies in all departments of life: Does the thing produce results? So Jesus said. "By their fruits shall ye know them." This Daniel story falls on World s Temperance Sunday, with the whole of Christendom giving special heed to the temperance issue. Never was there such a day of temperance jubi lation as this. In spite of occasional setbacks, the cause is winning all over the world. Phenomenal victories have been won for temperance in Britain, France. Germany and Russia since the war broke out. It is probably safe to say that there have been greater tri umphs for temperance In the past fif teen months than in the past one hun dred years. The case of alcohol ver sus no-alcoliol has almost ceased to be debatable. One big factor is the modern argu ment that abstinence makes for effi ciency. This is the slogan of most bis business enterprises to-day. The deadliest, blows of John Barleycorn are being dealt by the unsentimental and coldly calculating commercial spirit of the twentieth century, which has scien tifically proved to itself that alcohol diminishes the efficiency of men. With Daniel, our times are learning that self-indulgence does not promote man liness or might. DISTRICT S. S.
