What Makes Success.

In business life two things are essen
tial to success First, sound judgment;
second, activity. In all departments we
find greater deficiency in judgment
than in other requisites. Long familiar
ity in a given department does not
necessarily produce it, though this will
undoubtedly aid and strengthen it.
Only by reliance on ones self, and feel
ing individually responsible for the re-
sults of action founded on ones own
efforts. can the fact be established OF
good or bad Judgment. Special talent
will not furnish it for a man who may
have capacity for acquiring information,
may be able to enter into learned discus
sions on supply or demand, may have
vast knowledge of productions, their
sources of supply, and their various
uses, and still lack the ability to apply
to practical and everyday use the bene-
| fits of information.
So, also, one may become familiar with
all the details of business through long
! experience in the service OF others, and
as servant, or in an executive capacity,
making himself invaluable without ever
realizing the responsibility attached to
individual discretion or judgment. In
this belief we find an answer to the oft
repeated inquiry why so large a portion
of business men are unsuccessful tc
claim that so many fail to meet fair sue
cess through force of adverse circum
stances, instead of permitting circum
stances to control them. Men who have
the capacity to comprehend the whole
question presented to them, to properly
weigh not only the side of success but o
} failure, and who understand the import
ance of right thinking and the full pen
atty of mistake, are the ones whosucceed
and whether they get credit for havinl
good judgment or not, they certainl
exercise it.

WALTER BRADLEYS SECRET,

When Asa Bradley was sentenced to
the States prison for life for the double
crime of forgery and manslaughter, many
people said that a wicked man was now
where he could do no harm; but it was
dreadful misfortune to his wife and son.
Six months afterwards, Mrs. Bradley
died, end the friends of the family
asked, "What will become of poor
Walter ?"
But this little burst of sympathy was
all "poor Walter" ever got of them;
and when the boy was sent to the aims
house, it was agreed that the place was
good enough for the son Of convict.
For five years the almshouse was Wal
ter's only home. Then the overseers OF
the poor informed him that he must be
"bound out, and earn his own living.
Young as he was Che was scarcely thir-
teen), Walter had a stout heart, and it
needed only this sudden send-off to
rouse his latent sense of independence.
For the first time he realized his posi-
tion clearly, and found his native pride.
He declared with spirit that he would nc
longer be beholden to pauper help, OF
would render pauper service, and will
this resolution he went his way to tight
the battle of life alone.
He little knew the difficulties he would
have to meet and conquer. After apply
ing in vain at several places in town, h'
went to Rockland, thriving factory vii
lage, and spent three days in O fruitles
search for work. Weary and discouraged
he finally met a farmer who wante'
some help in his haying.
"Ill work for you cheap, and hard
too" said the boy, with Frightening
eye.
"That sounds we'll. Where do yo
live2"
"I came from Stony Brook"
"Come little nearer. want to TAX
a good look into your face"
Walter approached the wagon for IL
spection.
"You look willing, at any rate. What
your name ?"
"Walter Bradley, sir. )"

Artemus Wards Power of RidicuIe.

"Artemas Ward at Cleveland" is the
title of an article in Scrib2aer, and the
following extract shows how apt at
repartee the great American humorist
was In repartee Browne had scarcely
an equal among the journalists of his
time, and his pen was held in wholesome
fear by rival members of the fraternity.
He had always a ready answer for any
that attacked him, and he used his
power of ridicule in reply to his assail-
ants. One day he found neat package
on his desk, which, on opening, he dis
| covered was jack-knife. A reporter OF
a morning paper-a VIGOROUSLY homely
man-heard of it, and made paragraph
to the effect that Browne richly merited
the knife. That evening Browne re-
torted by naming the person, and say
ing .
"He is the homeliest man in America.
He has broken five cameras in endeavor-
ing to get picture of himself to send
to the children of a bitter personal
enemy, maliciously intending to frighten
them to death. He has been offered a
good salary to stand up in corn-held
as a scare-crow. He is compelled to get
up three times every night and rest his
face. In his counting days he was utterly
unsuccessful until he had procured 9
mask. He has a gait like saw-horse
and when he walks the sidewalks the
very bricks recoil IN horror"
Not content with this chastisement, il
the next issue, under the guise of 1
special dispatch from Charleston, where
Ossawatomie Brown was on trial TO
treason, he said:
"The jury in the case of Ossawatomi,
Brown, charged with murder and trea
son, brought in verdict of guilty at ter
i O'Clock this morning, and at clever
O'Clock he was sentenced by Judg
Barker. The judge, after dwelling wit
great force on the enormity of the pris
I oner's crime, sentenced him to sleep on
a night with -- naming the riva
/ reporter, and, said the judge in
4 trembling voice, may God have merc
on your soul + The prisoner fell wit
q an agonizing shrek to the floor, an
there was not dry eye in the vast col
o course of spectators. An effort will /
], made to get his sentence commuted

Lite's West Window.

We stand at life's west windows,
And think Of the days that are gone
Remembering the coming sunset,
We too must remember the morn
But the sun will set, the day will close,
And an end will come to all our woes.
AS we watch the western easements,
Reviewing our happy youth,
We mourn for its vanished promise
OF honor, ambition, and truth
But our hopes will fall and pride decay,
When we think how soon we must pass away.
We stand at life's west windows,
And turn not sadly away,
To watch our childrens faces
The noontide'of sparkling day
But our sun must set, our lips grow dumb
And to look from our windows our children
come.
Still looking from life's west Window
And we know we would not again
Look forth the eastern lattice,
And live over all lfe's pain
Though life's sunlight be brilliant, its sunset is
sweet,
Since it brings longedfor rest to our weary feet.

Unable to Grant the Petition.

A story illustrative of red tape in
Russia is told by an English correspond
ent, who declares that it is true. An
operatic singer connected with a Mos
COW theater, wishing to make short
excursion into the country, went to get
her passport countersigned by the local
authorities. The presiding official in
duired for her " written petition" My
written petition " cried the lady, g
have none / never knew that anything
of the kind was required. 'Not re-
auired, madam :? On the contrary, moth
ing can be done without it. Take this
sheet of paper and write according to my
dictation." She transcribed word for
word formal petition requesting leave
of absence, which was then signed, tolds
ed and sealed. "And now," quoth the
man in office, "you have only to deliver
it" I" To whom, prayP" "To whom !"
echoed the official, with a smile at tie
absurdity of the question "to me, Of
course" The document was handed
across the table. The great man adj
iusted his spectacles, broke the seal,
gravely read over his own composition,
and said E" Madam, have read your
petition, and regret to tell you that :
am unable to grant it.
