REGULARITY OF HABIT.
II Is the secret Of Accomplishing a Great
Deal of Work.

It Is the SecHet of Accomplishing Great
Deal OF Work.
One of the most difficult of all minor
habits to acquire, says an able writer,
is that Of regularity 1t ranks with
that of order. The natural inclination
of most persons Is to defer until the
last possible moment or put 1t off to
another time, where this can possibly
be done. Yet habits of regularity con-
tribute largely to the ease and COM
fort OF life. A person can multiply his
efficiency by it We know persons
who have a multitude of duties, and
who perform vast deal Of work daily,
who set apart certain hours for given
duties, and are there at the moment
and attend rightly to what is on hand.
This done, and other engagements are
met, each in order, and a vast deal ac-
complished, not By strained exertion.
but by regularity.
that at certain hours of the day it will
turn to particular line OF duty, and at
other hours to other and different
labors. The very diversity is restfnl
when attended to in regular order.
But let these run together, and the
duties mix, aad what before was easy
Is now annoying and oppressive, and
the exact difference between many is
at this point. There are those who
confuse and rush, and attempt to do
several things at once, and accomplish
little, while another will quietly pro-
coed from one duty to another, and
easily accomplish vast amount of
work. The difference is not in the ca
pacity Of the two, but in the regular
methods Of the one as compared with
the irregular and confused habits OF
the other. Scientific American
