years past, this gentleman was stiff and tao

ant and appeared to feel deep interest il
the welfare of Somers.

from the time you started in business and
have often spoken in your favor. sup.

ital in my business as | need.
After bidding Somers good morning, the
director left.
The young merchant continued to pros
per in business, aud his shop was the most
frequent resort of the bank directors, who,
when they ascertained his standing, and
knew him to be accommodating property, did
what they could TO help bin along They
purchased of him themselves aud often d.
rected customers TO his store
Somers is now one of our most active
and wealthy citizens. He does an extern
siye business, and employs number of
hands. His losses have been small. From
an humble beginning, he has risen to pre-
sent standing, and is an example OF perse-
vering industry to all young men. He
was always punctual in his payments, in-
dustrious in his habits, aud strictly atten-
tive to business. Let this example be i'm
itated by all youth, and like him they will
prosper. From poor boy, he has become
a wealthy man and now he exerts good
influence all around him. He is kind
hearted and liberal, and yearly distributes
of his property TO assist the poor and needy.
How difficult it is for a young man, Just
starting in business TO obtain assistance
If he attempts to obtain help at the bank,
not once in a dozen times is he successful.
The directors, being in many cases aristo-
cratical do not sympathise with him and will
not exert themselves TO render him necessary
help. So he struggles on for the few first
years of his life, and if be happens TO fail,
as there seems nothing TO prevent him, the
directors rejoice at their good luck in not
having lost by him-when if they had ac-
commodated him, he would have succeeded
and overcome all his troubles. If in spite
of the obstacles which are thrown into his
path, he succeeds and Pccumulates property.
they quickly make his acquaintance. and
are ready to do all in their power for him.
Such is the way of the world
