The chances are that such writers as are saved and developed are not those whose talents are the richest. They are those whose talents are accompanied by the qualities most serviceable in competitive life. Now such qualities are often denied to genius. And where genius has to rely on them there is sure to be 68 'GOD'S POOR" failure, unless by a miracle, chance comes to the rescue. A great deal of undeveloped and lost talent has belonged among God's poor. There is no doubt of course that poverty... develops much that is precious in life, not talent or genius alone, but valuable qualities of character. But it does vastlv more harm than good. Whenever a man succeeds in spite of poverty we recognize the wonder and eagerly give it acclaim. But the fail- ures resulting from poverty we pass over. Indeed, they are so common as to be almost uninteresting. We speak of them by the bulk, in the mass. The chief work of poverty we know to be the creation of squalor and disease and vice, leading to the weakening of body, the destruction of character and to the loosening on society of a vast number of baleful influences.
