It is Longfellow, paraphrasing an old Spanish proverb, who says ill his "Falcon of Ser Federigo," "A 11 things come round to him who will but wait." We are too impatient usually of results; even though the poet Milton assures us that "They also serve who only stand and wait," we prefer action, and w h e n w l r t t i n g seems to be the most strategic move we grow irritated or turn to something else. Disraeli, Lord Beaconsfleld, was a very ambitious man, and a very talented one, but be had learned how to wait. Even as a boy he cast himself in the role of Demosthenes, of Napoleon, of Alexander. He was always a leader In whatever bis imagination led him to engage in. And ylt' if he had faced the facts there was little chance for him. He was a Jew, and the Jews were a despised and almost an ostracized race in England when Disraeli was a boy. The story Is told in the admirable biography by Andre Maurois that when Disraeli was a young boy at school he and a school fellow were reading together. They held the book between them, and Disraeli, far more rapid in getting over the page than his companion, had finished before Jones had moj-e than begun. This distressed the little fellow who tried his best to keep up with his more erudite companion. He Bighed. "Never mind," Disraeli said encouragingly, "I can wait." It was one of the strong charactertatica of his life that he could wait, a characteristic which few men possess. We don't like waiting. It is wisest often to make haste slowly. Norton wants to be rich, and he cannot wait. He never buys a conservative security; he looks for the highest Interest possible. He puts his money only into enterprises which promise quick and high returns. Most of his investments, therefore, have gone onto the rocks. Because of his lack of deliberation and because he could not wait to attain his ends he has made little or no progress toward the attainment of his financial ambition. (& lilt.
