I WAS born uudor an unlucky alar, so I had been Informed by tba boro- goopp writer, nnd tbere ipay hare been aome Irulh In tbla statement. Hotrerrr, I mnst bare realised tbla fact In my youth for uo opportunity wss lost to set things right with my¬ self and the world,
I knew It sll. '
Tbere was no one who could tell me anylhing or teach me bnytbing that I hnd not Iieard or known before. As 1 look back on my youthful yesrs I am liound to deliver myself uf entire blame because there was no one to Instruct me In thc way of truth.
My lot wss cast with tboae wbo. by Ihelr wits, earned whaterer was necee- lary for tbeir exialence. Tbc main Idea instilled into my mind waa to bloir It out on all occasions. Tbit was consid¬ ered among those I found around me as the highest form of education.
Many of our present-day politicians bnve lenrned this leaaon In the aame school, and bare been able to bluff tbe public out of a good deal.
I was In the country one day with a party of olber kids, who bad been given an outing by some chsrity, A gentle¬ man said to me, "Tommy, do you know anytbing about flying kites?"
I replied,  "Yep; all about  It"
It crossed my mind later In tbe dny thnt I would meet this same gentelmsn at tbe Newsboys' Retreat, wbere I usetl to go and enjoy a few boura In tbe ovcDing, I bad learned to read In this place, and bad found the accomplish¬ ment of great use to me.
For tbis foollth remark, wblcb was at once a lle. a boast snd a straight bluff. I was obliged to delve In tbe books of tbe liltle library half tbe uight. and unlll my bead fairly split.
He asked me the questions all right tbe next day, pinned me down to an anawer, nnd thought that be bad cnught me so that be could moralise about It. but t came up all right, looked him square In the eye. and was ro.idy with many answers that pleased him. He took to me and was tbe means of my first lift In the world.
Strange to eny. I hnve never forgot¬ ten this Information and bave used It a thousand times since.
Many bluffs of this nature were handled In the same way. causing an amount of mental lalxir entirely un- nrncpssnry. liut fllling my mind with useful knowledge. As I grew older, 1 lenrned a little by experience, but very liltle, for tbere seemril always tbe fool- Ish desire to pose ss sometmdy snd uevcr admit that I did not know.
Among my nnsoolates of my own ng^ it waa nu ensy matter to bluff, but this ilid uot sntisfy the egollsin In my na¬ lure; I sllll faui-ied that It was evidence of Intrlleclual supremncy to pretend to liiiow more than 1 really did. This pre¬ tense naturally brought me in cou- tact Willi some higlier than myself, so that I was at timeg put to sore strslts.
By tbiH lime I wss an expert on bluff, and had rluru steadily in my position, solely ns 1 see it now ou bluff, pure nml simple.
During tlic i>eriml of my eniploynienl. Iiefiiro 1 linil heroine one of the flrm. mnny liiterosllng things occurred. I hnil many narrow escnpes.
It wns freiiueutly eaid of me. "He knows n lol." This flattered me grent¬ ly. and 1 actually came to believe It myself. There was a remarkable lack of humiliating circnmstaucea In my pnrly life. 1 sui-ceeded In lilnfllng IhrouKli most trying rondlllona. II was my game and I 'earnetl to ploy II well.
In uiy early liusiuess enreer. when¬ ever my hliiir was found nut. I simply souglit another pince aud generally wou on bluff, prcleniliug to knuw mudi, when 1 knew nutbing. I wonld lihiff some simple chap to tell me as much as he could about the work, anil Ibcn I would add my Muff, so little hy lillle, by slicking to the same liush ncss, I swung into a flne irasltioo of Irust in n hig concern.
It wouid seem that here, at least, one wiiuKi he Batlsfle<l. I waa still unmar¬ ried, well to-dii nnd respected in my disirlrt. I rnfereil pollllcs on a dend StralKht hluff. won nut, and after serv¬ ing s.>veral terms In the Asaembly and in vnrinus ptilitloal iioaiilnos found my¬ self (iovernor. In Ihe sest of honor st the Stnte capllal. Monumental hluff hail secured for me wbat many men more wnrthy could not attain. I wan till- priile of my dislrict, and was point, ed out ns a model mnu, a flne charac¬ ter, stalwart and strong, a man of knowledge   and   reflnement.
Only I knew the tarulb: I beld Ihe seirtl in my shallow soul. I knew I bad wnn nn bluff, nothing else.
As (lovernor I awed Into silence those who were onto luy bluff, and those who lielii-ved in me were equally awed liy my A.<isumed greatneaa. Thia pleased and flallered me There were, however, nights of bard lahor. wben the nil hurned until daylight in roy apartment. No one knew wbat efforts were required to keep pace with my advanc<-weBt. Was any one ever to furtuuate Sk I? I only skimmed over the surface, acquired a few of the main facts and lo a clever manner wove Ihem intn any conrersaiion ibat was needed .\« I was considered an astute poliil-ian few attempted to differ with mr
The arrange fact is tbat ibmagh ali this life of preieoee and bumbag no true reallsatinp of my ewn depravity dawned u|>oa me until laie lo life, and tben It came wilb such aoddeoeaa aod OTerwbelmiDg power, almosi too mucb for a kumao mind
.Ka all my amblticoa of a aclflab aa- tuiT bad beeo aatlsfled by ceaUa fate
I bad crowa to feel that tbere was Ut¬ tle daiifor for tbe rest of my days, Bhe had lifted me from many foolish pitfalla. and It aeamed to me that I ahould allp oot of life with my secret. wblcb I bad come to dread.
Bat this same gentle fate material lied In tb* ahape of an accomplished woman of social position. She came Into my life so suddenly thst I fell n victim to tba ahafta of tbat youthful one with tbc tiny wings.
Here acalD I used my monstrous bluff and we were married. The honey¬ moon was a bappy one. I bad bluffed the poblic, palled wool over tbe eyes of hnndreda of my fellow politicians., had played tbe charity and philanthropic bInS.
Bnt woman waa a quantity I hnd not reckoned with. As our marrieil life IcDgthened ont 1 -was dally con- scloaa that tbere was a coldness grow¬ ing between ns, Tbis w-orrled me. Could It l>* possible tbat sbe bad seen through my sbsllow nnlure? Day hy day I grew more wretched, more nus- plcioua of tbe real tnith; day by day we drifted apart, iintll ber coldness froae my very soul.
Never a word of reproach, never a complaint—Just a calm, stately dignity; a living In ber own pure, honest atmos phere.
No criminal condemned to die In tlie chair could hgve suffered more nn- golsh nnd torture of mind thnn I did at that time. My exjierience In lifo bad taught me soniething, 1 rcnilzod that here I had found my innstor. lli-r radiant, honest soul shone ouly for lii-i- children. As for me I pnld tho liills. wss kind and even gentle In my faniliy life, but all to no purpose: bluff wmild not work with her. Yet ns I know It now. she patiently waited the turn of tbe tide. It cnme one day sooner ll^iu even  I  bad "suspected.
An acquaintance of mine, during my stay at the State Houso, called tn learn somiitblng shout ii iiinttc-r nt which be Was sure I bad some knoivl edge, I knew nothing whntsoovi-r nf tbe matter, nnd on ordinary occnsion.-s would have bluffed it out.
My wife was sitting In tho i-n.nn, calm, dlgnlfled, silent as the xplilux, A chill ran through me followed hy a flush like a fever, I grew cold, then pale, then red. It seemed as lliniish my head would hurst with the iiili-n.«i' Inlernal raging. There were tlinsi- twn human beings sirtlUR hefore mc, nne a bluffer, the olher nu honest woman. Tbey were wailing for n it-ply. It seemed as though I lived a whole life¬ time in those few seconds. I-'lunlly I blurted ont:
"I do not know nnythlng ahout this mstter—or sny other."
This was tho turning point. My friend looked at mo in disgust, soizod his hat and left the room.
I was stunned; my life secret was out; I was a ruined man: my vnnlty bad destroyed mc; I wns alono.
Suddenly I felt two soft nrms nhout roy neck. I saw two lovely deep eyes looking Into mine. I fell the world and Its foolish, childlike folly melt nwny. I wss in tbe confldence of my wifol

The Lord immediately told Motet and Aaron that Ihcy would not be permitted to enter Canaan.
C. "Serraut 01 the I.,OFd." Thit it a title of great dianity; Moaca had been eminent¬ ly useful. It K-st more hit honor to be the servant of thc Lord than to lie king o( Jeahurun.

From Judg * it appeart thnt Michael, the archangel, waa employed on this occation, and that Satt^n ditputed thc matter with him. Why did the Lord bury Mosei? It hardly teema probable that the object was tn keep ths Itraelitet from making hit tomb an object of idolatroua worship. The tomb of the pa- triarcha wot known, and the bonea of Joeeph were tben in camp on their way to burial, yet neither tombt nor bonee were worshiped. Thc following view of Kurta it worth considering: Jehovah did not in* tend to leave the body of Motet to comip* tion, but at the vcry time of his burial communicated eomc virtue by His own hand which asvcd the body trom corrup¬ tion, and prepared for the patriarch a tronaition intn the aame ttate of exiitenea into which Knoch and Elijah were ad¬ mitted without either death or burial. A« an example of iuitice Jehovah cauaed him to (tie before tne people entered thc land of rett and promise, but at an example ot grace lie prepared him an entrance into an. otiier land nl proiuiie and rett. This view, it alto held by thc Homiietic Commentary, and by tlie bpcaker'i nnd Whcdon'a com¬ mentaries.
