A certain amount of opposition is a great 
help to a man; kites rise against the wind and 
not with the wind; even a haul wind is better 
than none. No man ever worked his passage 
anywhere in a dead calm. Let no man wax 
pale, therefore, because of opposition; oppo 
sition is what he wants and must have, to be 
good for anything. Hardship ts the uative 
soil of manhood aud self-reliance He who 
cannot abide the storm without flinching lier 
by the wayside to be overlooked or forgotten.
