TIE STRrNGrH or MEN, ANIMAIs AM
INsEcTs.-A man of thirty, weighing
on an average a hundred and thirty
pounds, can drag, according to Regnier,
only q hundred and twenty pounds.
The proportion Of the weight drawn to
the weight of his body is no more than
as twelve to thirteen. A draft horse can
exert, only for few instants, an effort
equal to about two thirds Of his own
proper weight The man, therefore, 10
stronger than the horse But, accord
ing to Plateau. the smaller insect drags
without difficulty five, six, ten, twenty
times its own weight. The cockchafer
draws fourteen times its own weight,
and more. Other colcoptera are able to
put themselves into equilibrium with Q
force Of traction reaching 40 high %
forty-two times their own weight. In.
scots, therefore, when compared with
the vertebrate which we employ 10
beasts of draft, have enormous muscu.
lar power. 1t horse had the same rel.
alive strength as a donacia, the attrac.
ton it could exercise would be equiva.
lent to some sixty thousand pounds.
NJ. Plateau has also adduced evidence
ofthe fact that, in the same group Of
insects, il you compare two insects no.
tably different in weight. the smaller
aud lighter will manifest the greater
strength.

To Y0unH Men

1t Is easier to be good business
man than poor one. Half the ener.
gy displayed in keeping ahead that is
required to catch up when behind will
save credit, give more time to business
and add to the profit and reputation OF
your work. Honor your engagements.
If you promise to meet man, do so,
II you 90 out on business, attend
promptly to the matter on hand, and
then as promptly 60 about your own
business. Do MOI stop to tell stories
in business hours. ..
II you have place Of business, be
found there when wanted. No man
can get rich by sitting around stores
and saloons. Never "foow on bust
ness matters. II yon have to labor
for living, remember that one hour
in the morning is worth two at night.
If you employ Others be on hand to
see that they attend to their duties,
and to direct with regularity, prompt
ness and liberality. DO not incddlc
with any business you know nothing
of. Never buy thing simply because
the man who sells will take it out In
trade. Trade is money. Time is mon.
/ y. A good business is pleasant and
attractive; then stay there to wait on
customers.
Never use quick words, or allow
yourselfto make hasty or ungentle-
manly remarks to those in your EN-
ploy, for to do so lessons their repect
for you and your influence over them.
Help yourself and others will help you.
Be faithful over interests con6dei to
your keeping. and all in good time
your responsibilities will be increased.
Do not be in too great haste to get rich.
Do not build until you have arranged
and laid good foundation. DO not
as you hope to work for success
spend time in idleness. II your time
is your own, business will suffer if you
do. If it is given to another for pay
it belongs to him and you have no
more right 20 steal it than to steal
money. BE 0bllglny. strive TO AVOID
harsh words and personalities. Do
not kick every stone in the path more
miles can be made q day by going
steadily on than by stopping to kick.
Pay as you go. A man Of his honor
respects his word as he does bis bond.
Ask. but never beg. Help Others when
you can, but never give when you can
not afford to. simply because it is fash
ionable. Learn to say no. No neces
sity for swapping it out dog fashion,
Have few confdants, and the fewer the
better. Use your own brahms rather
rather than those Of others. Learn to
think and act for yourself. Be vlgi-
liant. Keep ahead, rather than behind
the times. Young man cut this out /;
and if there is folly in the argument,
let US know.
