It is well to make a point of this fact--in this world are many "_ne'er-do-wells"_ who fail to profit by advice and thereby become professional in the seeking of favors.

Consideration owes them nothing and to withstand their persistent appeals would in time _dull our natural tendencies_ toward helping others.
The world helps those who help themselves.

We have little admiration for the man who is forever whining.

Society has no work for such people as these.

When we have exhausted every means of helping such a man we must in self-defense pass him up before he contaminates our sense of justice.
_We must keep our visions clear._ Consideration for others is a prime refinement of character.
