WHAT MAKES SUCCESS
“Wo arc forever going to begin
work in earnest tomorrow,*’ si id
Mr. Stuybolt, “unit we are never
satisfied with Jthe job we’ve got,
and we peiform the labor involved
in it in only a half hearted man
ner, but we tire going to work in
dead earnest when we get a job to
suit us.
“The fact is that tomorrow,when
we get to it will bo to us us today
is now; we shun’t feel any more
like work. And that other job,
when we como in actual contact
with it and see it close nt hand,
wont suit us any better than tlio
one we’ve got now docs.
“The truth is that we arc dwad-
lers and shy of work and trying to
get along just as-easy as we can.
We hate to pitch in and go at
things.
“The time for us to work is
now, not tomorrow, and the job
for U3 to collar is the one we’ve
got. Round that up in 6tyle , do
the work completely and thorough
ly. and you’ll be astonished to find
how You’ll bring it out und what
changes there are in it. And ev
erybody that knows about your

or affected by it, as it done well or |looks hk® 11 bride onco more,

done—everybody likes to see a job,
whatever it ia, well cfone—and
pleased with the deer, and there’s
moitey in it every time.

Robert never seems to have any
spare time to talk things over with
me. When he comes down in the
morning lie is in a rush and a 6tew
to reach the office. lie bolts his
breakfast, kisses me good-by on
the run, and is none till evening.
At dinner he is in a ntrvous haste
to get away ‘to meet some business
engagement,’ runs hurriedly
through Iii6 paper, and is gone a-

‘’When he reaches home I uin in

I am the mother of eight child

experience with medicines Last
summer my little daughter had the
disentery in its worst form. We
thought she would die, I tried
everything I could think of. but
nothing seemed to do her any good.
I saw by an advertisement in our
paper that Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
was highly recommended and sent
and got a bottle at once. It proved
to be one of the very best niedi
cinefi we ever had in the house. It
saved my little daughter’s life. I
am anxious for every mother to
know what an excellent medicine
it is. Had I known it at first it
would have saved me a great deal
of anxiety and my Jittlc daughter
much suffering.
