It takus tt Kood di'itl of "pull" now inlays to (rot anything. Ono I'lin't oven jrot n tooth cxtriii!ti'd without a "pull:" tho school trni'hi'i'M mii.it have a pull; tho ofllee sockets must have a pull; you can't (rot a bout on without a pull; and you must havo n pull hvfnm you ran (jet a contract; to pot a pass ovur the rail road It takes pull; In almost every vo cation in life there is a pull hidden somewhere, and tho reason why many aspirants do not Hiiceeed Is because; In aiming for tho object sought they over look tho neeessury "pull;" even In the war with Spain the Spanish government tried to have a pull with foreign coun tries; it is a pull hero and a pull there, sometimes a pull altogether and some times a pull tn opposlto directions; and then tt Is a pull Dick and pull Devil. Tho best pull is the one that lifts hu manity up, instead of the pull that drags men down. The trouble with many Is thoy depend too much upon pull" and not enough upon self-reliant "push;" while on the other hand too many make uso of their pulling powers and care very little for merit and worth. Punx sutawnoy Anr. Tho American people are bitterly In dignant at the Bufferings that have been inflicted, as they believe needlessly, upon our brave soldiers. It Is not the fact that our men have suffered that bo rouses our indignation, but the fact that their Bufferings havo been needless, and might have been avoided. Had the fortune of battle left 20,000 of our sol diers dead upon tho field, we would have mourned our loss, but would have looked upon their death as a necessary sacrifice, and, building monuments to their memory, would have hold thera dear for all time. Had our transports brought back to us 50,000 heroes, maimed and shattered, we would have opened the nation's treasury and cared for thorn as they needed, and deserved, and would havo demonstrated our grat itude by building for them homes of comfort and plenty. Had Spain taken thousands of our men prisoners, and carried them away to castle dungeons over the seas, we would have beaten down her walls, burst open her doors, and brought our boys out, at any cost of blood or treasure, and made them for get tholr captivity in a proud wolcome home. We would have done and suf fered all these things without a mur mur, for these things are the natural and nceessary sacrifices and sufferings of war. But our men have been starved within an arm's-length of plenty, and .have rotted with disease when only red . tape stood between them and health, and wo indignantly cry out, 'Oh, tho bitter uselessness of it all! New York Voice. Some people never have a good word to say of anyone who is prospering. They are always ready to circulate all sorts of scandul, and never doubt the truth of an injurious report about their neighbors, but hasten to circulate it among tholr friends who enjoy scandal more than they do a good meal. If a man is prosperous and attending to his business, they make it their business to inform the public that the prosperous man Is imposing on some one and de serves no credit. They are always ready to stand la the way of progress, and when a new industry comes to town they lose no time In telling how well they would do if they could have their way. They are constantly finding fault with the man who has some money, and can see nothing but hypocrisy in the churches. If a minister happens to own a bioyule or occasionally spends a day fishing or in taking other harmless rooreation they hasten to condemn blm In fact, they are always ready to Injure the reputation of others, but never will ing to find what opinion the public has of them. In fact, these people have but little regard for the truth, and down in their hearts nyion less regard for mof- ality and decency. They are gems In their own eyes, but filth In the eyes of others. Tbey seldom subscribe a dollar to the support of the church, but can always tell just bow much others should give. Tbey seldom subscribe a penny to the support of any charitable lost! . tutlons or the support of any uofortun ate person.
