A young clerk, who has been twoor three
years in great counting house. fancies that
during that time he has learned all that can
possibly be known of business. He aeeor.
dinghy listens to the advice of soma Judi.
cious and ambitious friends, retires from .
good position which yielded him comfort
able salary, and sets up for himself to bets
ter his fortune. He issues circular teohis
business aequaintancesf prints an sdEersisee
ment in all the, newspapers 8. and thus begins
an independent business career. Now, how

and struggles for life during the first sum-
mer then, on the FIRST winter day. "ths
wind passes over it, and it is gone" Such
a man would be graphically described by
his Western creditors as ''dsad broke"
We do not mean to offer encouragement
to hybody. We do not say that is is.s
fault in young men to be hopeful. but raths
er that is is common misfortune to be over
sanguine, For instance, many a farmers
boy would rise to wealth if be were TO keep
to his fathers farm, instead of hurryi1g e.
some great city to make his fortune in .
mere brilliant Style Many an honest and
industrious youth, who might be good
mechanic, prefers TO be poor clerk: many
a good clerk insists on being poor third
partner and many a good third partner
would ruinitk firm il one year if he were
TO be. at itso head.i T Promotion in business
should be like promotion in an army on the
ield-only from merit of service aud evil.
