And wifli most of us it is a goii thiir; to be under obligation to creditors. A drht is a load that holds one steady. We are like horses who need not nnlv the load, but the spur. The debt is the load; the creditor is the spur. Debt is often a blessing in dis guise. It arouses within us the divine force that makes for winning. Ralzac would write only when Hpht And usually he was in debt; therefore his long shelf full of books. vt'p. like Balzac, need some times to feel the spur in our flanks. Who can say what treasure of Sir Walter we might have missed had not Scott been under the necessity of paying his debts? Or what should we have had Per,m r.niHsmith. who "wrote like II Ulll w . I an unpel and talk'd like Poor Poll" and who was always borrowing? And our old Mark Twain. Mr. Clemens says by nature he was lazy. But at the age ot sixty he felt the spur. His publishing house failed, and, (hough he was no, under the legal necessity, he felt morally bound to pay the cred itors in full. In caving tha, deb, whal a beau tiful heritage was left us ! It is no disgrace to owe a deb,. The disgrace consists in neglect ing or refusing ,0 pay. You may reach an hones, man in no more tender spot than to send him his bill marked ' Please remit" or to have the collector call m re than once. He wants to pay It hurts him to disappoint or fail. He will do his best. if the debt is made with likeli hood of payment and the desire to meet the obligation it is a blessing, because Lacking capital, the average man would get nothing ahead. But by ... , ... u:- going in debt ne ouys sumcnmiB, buckles down to the job and pays out, becoming by so much a capi talist. It is hard sometimes, but When the load is landed at the end of the road the sting of the goad is forgotten WHY HE WAS EPISCOPALIAN. Prove that Ldia E.
