THE VALUE OF FIVE MINuTEs.-ln another
place he finds a man idling. You can soon
zee, that of all spectacles this is the one least
to his mind. "If you waste five minutes 1t
is not much;" but probably if you waste five
minutes yourself you lead some one else to
waste five minutes, and that makes ten. ii
a third follow your example, that makes
quarter of an hour. Now there are about
one hundred and eighty of us here; and ii
every one wasted five minutes in day. what
would it come to! Let me sec. Why, II
would be fifteen hours; and fifteen hours
day would be ninety hours about eight days
working time in a week. and in year would
be four hundred days "Do you think we
could ever stand such waste as that" The
poor loiterer was utterly confoundcd- lie
had no idea of eating up fifteen hours, much
less four hundred days, Of his good employer
time: and he never saw before how fast five
minutes could be multiplied. The Success

EDITORIAL LIFE-Some men have very
high appreciation of editorial life the baltl-
more Clipper, "for instance" He says, 1t is
an unceasing working of the brain, and he
would much prefer working the soil. Be-
sides an editor has to
"Wear his heart upon his sleeve
For DAVIS to pick at"
Let him move in what direction he may, he
ia sure to be censurcd for men desire to use
him for their own interests. If he acts hon.
estly and conscientiously, as he should do
he will be apt to have his labor for his pains
To thrive he must become supple tool in
the hands of those who want his services
He is expected to know every thing and
want nothing. He must raise others, but re-
main stationary himself. If by his talents
and exertions he lifts man into power, his
rccompense will be abuse.
