Thé Cow Puncher (Continued from page 2) posed to think that many a philan- thropist, if weighed in that balance, would be found to have a debit side bigger than his credit, No matter how much wealth a man may amass or how wisely he may distribute it, we cannot credit him with success if he has oppressed the hireling or dealt unfairly with his competitors or the public. Such a man is not a success; he is a failure, In his own soul he knows he is a failure, that is, provided he still has a soul, and if not, as I said before, he is a greater failure still." Out of this discussion Mr, Dun- can evolved the copy line, "The suc- cess of life is in direct proportion to its net contribution to human hap- piness," and Dave sat writing it fog into the night, As soon as Dave had learned to read a little Mr, Duncan took him one day to the public library, and the young man groped in amazement up and down the great, rows of books, Presently a strange sense of inpdequateness came over him, "I can never read all of those books, nor half of them," he said. "I sup- pose one must read them to be well- informed." Mr. Duncan appeared to change the subject, "You like fruit?' ne asked, "Yes, of course, Why----" "When you go into a fruit store do you stand and say, 'I can never eat all of the fruit; crates and rates of it, and carloads more in the warehouse' Of cowrse you don't. You eat enough for the good of your system and let it go at that. Now, just apply the sam e sense to your reading. Read enough. to keep your mind fresh, and alert, and vigorous; give it one new thought {to wrestle with every day, and let the rest go. . . , Oh, I know that r-- there is a certain gchool which holds that unless you have read this author or that author, or this book or that boek, you are hopelessly uninformed or hehind the times, at's literary snobbery. Let them talk, A mind that consumes more than it can as- similate is morally on a par with a stomach that swallows more than it can digest. Gluttous, both of them. Read as much as you can think about and no more. The trouble with many of our people is that they do not read to think, but to save themsélves the trouble of thinking. The mind, left to itself, insists upon activity, So they chloro- form it," Mr. Duncan also took occasion to speak with Dave about his religions views, He did not forget Dave's explanation of why he went out of the church, "I smypathize with your point of view a gool™deal," he said, "but don't be too sweeping in your conclusions, The church is too fussy over details; too anxious to fit the mind of man-- which is his link with the Infinite--into some nax- row, soul-crushing creed; too insis- ten upon the form of helief and not nearly insistent enough upon con- duct, It makes me think of a man who was trying to sell me an auto- mobile the other day. He was ex- plaining all about the trimmings, the cushions and the lights and the horn and all that sort of stuff, and when he was through, I said, "Now tell me something about the motor. I want to know about the thing that makes the wheels go round. It it's no good 1 guess the trimmings are only fit for junk,' Well, that's the way with the Church, The motor that has kept it runnig for nineteen centu- ries is the doctrine of love; love of man to man, love of man to God, love of God to man. Nothing about wrath--that"s only a back-fire--but love. Without that motor all the trimmings are junk. Each scct has its town trimmings, but they all pro- fess to use the same motor. . . . Still, the motor is all right even if it is mors for destruction, You see it in the child pulling his toys to pieces, or in the mob wrecking buildings. Destruction is easy and passionate, but construction demands skill and patience." "I have been at some of their meetings," said Dave. "They lay great stress on the war between La- bor and Capital---" 'Between husband and wife in the family of production," 'interrupted Mr. Duncan, 'Nothing is to be gain- ed by that quarrel. I admit the hus- and has heen overhearing, offensive, rutal, perhaps; bt the wife has been slovenly, inefficient, shallow. Neither has yet been brought to rea- lize how hopeless {8 tthe case of one without the other. And I don't think they will learn that by quarrel- ing. What they need is not hard words but mutual respect and sym- pathy, and an honest conception of what constitutes success, Doctrines and policies are helpful to the extent to which they cause men to think, either directly or by creating en- viornment conducive to thought; but they will never bring the golden age of happiness, That can come only through the destruction of selfish- ness, which can be destroyed only by the power of love. That is why I emphasized the motor, in our talk about the Church, It is our only chance." Dave's talks with Mr. Duncan be- came almost nightly occurrenceg, either at the Duncan home or when he drove the family--for the master of the house often accompanied them --or when they met down town, as frequently happened, And the hoy was not slow to realize the broad nature of the task to which Mr. Duncan had set himself. His edu- cation was to be built of every knowledge and experience that could go into the rounding of a well-developed life, The climax seemed to he reached evikSAN Se One teaspoonful in the dishpan makes the dishes and glassware bright and glistening. 15¢ and 25¢ at all Good Grocers accompany him to a dinner at. which a noted thinker, just crossing the continent had consented to speak. "It will be evening dress," said Mr, Duncan. "I suppose you are hardly fitted out that way?" "I guess not," said Dave smiling broadly. He recalled the half-hum- orous sarcasm with which the Met- ford gang referred to any who might be seen abroad in their 'Hereford Fronts." He had a sudden vision of himself running the gauntlet of the ridicule. But Mr. Duncan was continuing. "I think I can fix you up," he said. We must be pretty nearly of a size, and I have a spare suit." And al- most before he knew it it was ar- ranged that Dave should attend the dinner.
