Little Things
Nothing can he accomplished by
half-hearted methods. Don’t care,
slipshod methods never lead toward
success. lack of concentration is a
ervihg fault among the young men
of today. They dabble a little in
this and then in that. They take
up this work and drop it for some
ting else. And so it goes. These
young men do become great. Rusk in
says, “Thoroughly great men are
those who have done everything
thoroughly", and who have never
despised anything, however small.”
No successful man ever bee tme
successful overnight. Instead of a
quick turn from poverty to richness,
from obscurity to farms from failure
to success, a close inquiry will show
that for many years the subject was
quickly and persisently preparing
himself and paving the way towards
his success. Do .is a little word,
hut a big thing- ft is small hut
great, short but long; takes breath,
hut makes life. It means power.
It means higher positions awaiting
you. It means spheres of wider in
fluence. It means blessings to your
self, to employer, to employe, to
society, to state. Merchants Jour

Self Control.
To submerge self, or, in other
words, to hold in bondage the high
er passions is the most ennobling
and inspiring of human virtues. It
gives to the heart of humanity the
serenity that softens and illumines
the soul. It gives a blessing for an
oath, a smile for a blow. It mir
rors into lives with which it comes
in contact forgiveness and love.
It governs iihptilses, desire and
passion. It hiiglitems lifes path
way, lightens the burdens, conquers
all thing, stems the tides that would
overwhelm us, and makes possible
the realization of oiu loftiest
ideals —Merchants Journal and

A one legged ’Welsh orator named
Jones was pretty successful in ban
tering an Irishman, when the latter
asked him:
“How did you come to lose your
leg?”
“Well,” said Jones, “on examin
ing my pedigree and looking up my
descent, I found there was some
Irish blood in me, and, becoming
convinced that it was settled in the
left leg, I had it cut off at once.”
“Jly the powers,” said Rat, “it
Would have ben ;■ v r.v thing
if it had only settled in your head! ”
