Punctuality.

From the NOrristowR Times
An eminent Philadelphia jurist died the
other day, and among other beuuests gave tn
his grandson a gold watch with this instruc
ton: Nv henever he looks at the watch he will
remember the necessity of being q correct and
puhctuai man. There is lesson in this in
Junction which every one may learn with nro6t
fnhctualIty Is one of the necessities To suc-
cessiui business life, and 1t is an Ornament
among the social virtues. The man who is
a ,h"s Puhctuai does more and does it better
than he who is always late, always behind
time. Leaving duties to be performed until
the last moment and then rushing them
through makes II mess OF any work The man
who Is always punctual saves much time and
saves himself much trouble and his friends aud
acquaintances great deal OF annoyance He
VINO is always ON time is esteemed and re-
spected by his business acquaintance and his
social companions. What "a nuisance IT il
Always Sy W De competed 10 walt for one with
whom an engagement has been made for a
certain hour. Some persons are habitunllv
late, and as "A general thing they are in a hurry
nevertheless true.
Great dangers are sometimes the result of
Delng behind time, If only tor few minutes.
Engineers KNOW tie truth of this and profit nv
IL by sending their engines through on time
business men incur great financial risks by not
being punctual They arrive at the bank just a
few minutes alter their note has gone to nro-
test, and their financial standard is lowered
ihey promise TO pay their bills at certain
hour OF a certain day, but being add icted To
tardiness, they diregard their promises and
their business reputation suffers There are
some persons who are always late in arriy wing
at their places OF business, and they drag
through the day because they started behind
time. Many a good situation has been lost be-
cause the clerk or salesman failed to reach his
post OF duty punctually. Accident or circum-
stances may excuse in some instances, but
never with persons who make hardness a
habit. The work man who is from ten To
twenty minutes late every morning not ONLY
incurs his employers displeasure, out he ire
9uently receives merited rebuke. ard sooner or
later Is told that his services are no longer
needed. Employees who are always prompt to
quit work just at the first stroke OF the closing
hour OF the days work should be Just as prom nj
To begin work. AT home, in school and at bust
hess punctuality should always be Insisted
upon, for laxity in this respect leads to neglect
OF duties in other respects.
Punctnality can be taught as we'll as any
other commemorative trait, and II should be
taught aud practiced. III business or social life
punctuality should be demanded and a want
oi ii should ever be rebuked. Persons who are
always late do not know the value Of time and
they lose much thereby.
