THE WAY TO SUCCEED.

Over fifty years ago, a youth
working on a farm, asked his father
to give him money enough to buy
a gun. The old man could not
spare it, but the boy, nothing
daunted, found an old piece Of
IRON about the place, ard in the
course Of time contrived to make
a gun barrel out of it with the
very meagre facilities afforded by
a country blacksmith's shop. He
had not the materials to make a
lock and stock, so he walked to
the nearest town and traded for
the necessary attachments, and
was encouraged by the smith for
ha wing made so good a shooter;
this gave him the ambition to make
another, so he went to cutting out
grindstones from the native rock
to raise the money for gun mate
rials; in a short time there was a
considerable demand for guns Of
his make. During the French
war with Prussia, he was called
upon to furnish guns for the army,
and in less than eight months he
made and delivered to the govern
ment of France rifles Of a peculiar
pattern, the proceeds amounting
to FIVE millions of dollars, which
amount was duly paid. The same
man furnished rifles to the United
States, South America, Rome,
Spain, Egypt and Japan.
The farmers boy who wanted
gun is Eliphalet Remington, of IL
ion, N. Y. His manufactory COW
ers four acres Of ground, and he
employs twelve hundred men.
Not satisfied with this achieve
ment, he has recently completed
. sewing machine, which is report.
ed to represent the latest and
most perfect advance in the i'm
provement Of this adjunct Of do
nestle economy, This is the type
Of boy, who, when there is not a
way, makes a way for himself.
Many a youth would have sat
down and pouted Sinking what a
hard thing It was that he could
not have a gun, with hard thoughts
against his father for being 50
stingy. NotsO with young REM
ington; he wanted a gun and was
determined to have it; the very
necessities Of bis situation stimu-
lated him to the exercise and CON
sequent Development Of his pow
en- Of planning and deFising; in
ether words, thinking for himself.
And rs such. the rorldorer, Who
achieve noted success. So it was
with Fitch. and Goodyear, and
Howe. Their early history was
the history Of . struggle with pri-
vatiOh, want, litigation, and al
most despair; and the immortal
Morse must be added to the list;
owing all TO their patience, cour-
age and indomitable persistence.
II young Remington had been
supplied with q gun he Wouldhaye
gone a hunting" and fallen
gradually into kind Of idle, loaf
ing, aimless life, a burden to him
self and a benefit to nobody, The
