tis a mistake to eat all you can, spend
all you have, tell all you know, or show
all you feel.
Ever since I knew of them, I have been
wanting to employ Schwab, J. P. Mor-
gan, and John Wanamaker, for there is
no trouble in getting business—the trou-
ble lies in getting them.
A bad pup often makes a good dog;
and I would rather undertake to reverse
the force of a bad man than loan my own
to a weak one.
Many people labor like an ox or a
mule, and have to be pressed or they will
not earn their feed.
Dont tell me what you have of beauty,
strength, education, money or genius.
The only thing I care to consider is what
you are doing with it.
we could get a shield from the fear
of things that never happen, our troubles

Many practice humanity to get the un-
der hold.
You can’t escape criticism, for if you
save money, you are a miser and a hog;
and, if you spend it, you are a spe¢nd-
thrift and a dog.
If you don’t know where success lies,
perhaps you know where it is not, and
that will show me what to avoid.
_ Set your stake, and, before you reach
it, set it further ahead.
Some people kick at everything they
don't understand.
I would rather fail and know the cause
than succeed and not know why. :
He that opposes us sharpens our wits
and becomes our helper. :
I can tolerate a man who fails to ac-
quire an education, or one who never
gets a dollar ahead, but I soon grow
tired of a person who does not have
sense enough to have a good time.

“Female” Bachelors Multiplying.
To read day by day of the number of
female bachelors that are being turned
out by the colleges is something quite
startling.
We shall see some astonishing figures
when the next census is published in full.
Already one doctor in every tweny-five
is a woman, and one twenty-cighth of all
the preachers are women. One-eighth of
the college professors’ chairs are now
filled by women, while one journalist out
of everv twenty is a woman. In telegra-
phy and clerking women show signs of
vet taking the whole field.
While such facts are multiplying, it is
notorious that the marriage rate is stead-
i ily falling. The whole face of society ap-

The problem of industrial independ-
ence is gradually being solved through
the new order of society which puts wo-
man so largely at the helm of the world’s
affairs. This, however, is not the only
problem to be solved. When the world
becomes full of women doctors and law-

What the World Demands.
The world does not demand that
become a great lawyer, a great ph
cian, or a great merchant; but it do
require that you shall so carry et
through life as to uplift and not blight
your fellow-men; so as to help and nat
hinder, so as to elevate and not degrade
them. It does ask that you shall ngt
gain riches by impoverishing those who
help vou to become wealthy, that your
dollars shall be clean and not smirched
with the guilt of trying to get ahead of
your competitor by sharp practice; it
demands that your wealth shall not be
stained with the blood of widows and
orphans, that you shall not lift yourself
up by tearing others down. :
The Dray Horse and the Racer.
“All that hinders me from being as
fleet as you,” the dray horse said to the
racing horse, “is this long hair on my
fetlocks. It impedes my motions. If I
could have it cut off I would run against
you, best three in five.”
“All right,” replied the racer, “I will
remove that long hair for you, and we
will have a go.”
So he gnawed the dray horse's fet-
locks free from the long hair and the
two ran a race, with the result that the
dray horse was ignominiously beaten.
But the racer jeered and laughed at
him so scornfully that the dray horse
kicked him to death.
You can’t always tell how an instruc-
