WISE RULES.

Ex-Mayor Edison says: The rules
that l have followed all my life, and
which 1 regard as necessary to sue
cess in business, are:
/. Close attention TO details. And
this means sometimes working
nights and during hours usually
devoted to recreation.
2. Keeping cut Of debt. Regu-
lating expenses so as TO keep with
in your income, and at all times to
know just where you are fnan-
cially.
3. The strictest integrity. 1t is
rare that dishonest man succeeds.
He does sometimes, but not often.
4. Being temperate IN habits.
5. Never getting into lawsuit.
Business ought to be conducted in
such way that there will be no
need of lawsuits, and it is better
often to suffer a wrong than to go
into court about it.
