Happy Is the Man Who Knows
He Was Born to Work
who knows he can work and that by work well done
he can keep on climbing as other men have done to
more enjoyable and profitable work.
If he is jealous of other men above him, let him
remember that it has been long given out as a fact
that John Jacob Astor, the first Astor, peddled his
goods from a1)asket and that the writer saw Thomas
A. Edison working at his beginnings in a barn of a
place, said to have been used once as a stable.
No man need always stop at his beginnings if
he has got anything more in him.
Take a move, at once, upon yourself, please.
