Charncteristics for Success.

Rev. E. J. Hardy In Scribner's Magazine
The man who desires success should be
honest in word and dealing. He should
learn to do one thing well. Benjamin
Franklin, when a poor boy, went to Lon
don and applied for work at a printing
office. The foreman, doubling whether an
American could do anything WELL asked
Franklin if he really could set type. For
reply the boy stepped to one of the cases
and set up the forty-sixth verse of the first
chapter Of St. Johns Gospel-"And Ma
thaniel said unto him, can there any good
thing come out OF Nazareth? Philip said
unto him, come and see" This was done so
quickly and accurately, and conveyed such
delicate reproof, that he obtained en-
ployment at once. and was rapidly pro-
NOTED. What We need is concentrat ton.
Have but one business. know it thoroughly,
and attend its minutest details.
Mr.. Nasmyth the inventor of the steam
hammer, once said: If l were TO try To
compress into one sentence the whole OF
the experience of an active and successful
life, and offer it to young men as a rule
and certain receipt for success in any sta
ton, it would be comprised in this: Duty
first; pleasure second. From what / have
seen of young men and their after progress
am satisfied that what is generally termed
bad fortune, Ill luck and misfortune is,
in nine cases out of ten, simply the result
of inverting this simple maxim. My own
experience convinces me that absence of
success arises. in the great majority of
cases, from want Of self-denial and want OF
common sense. The worst maxim of all
maxims is. Pleasure first: work and duty
second"
To be truly successful, a man must be
able to rise after failure. The general whose
campaign is commenced amidst a series of
disasters but who, nevertheless. by repair
ing his mistakes. concentrating his forces
and watching his opportunities, carries
triumph out of defeat, is the truly great
captain. The statesman or orator whose
maiden effort was covered with confusion
and ridicule but who resolves-in spite or
rather because Of this-that he will force his
opponents to hear and to respect him,
shows that he is a great man. The ability
and the readiness to learn from failure is
the secret of success
The man who has only an eye for difficult
ties will not succeed. When Howe was
appointed commander-in-chief in the Med
iterranean question concerning him was
ASK ed in parliament. to which Lord Hawke
then first lord of the admiralty. replied:
Il advised his majesty to make the ap-
pointment. l have tried my Lord Howe on
important occasions: he never asked me
how he was to execute any service, but al
ways went and did IT."

out of the mine went to waste, ms no
method was known of extracting the
copper from it. After awhile, how
ever, discovery was made that is being
utilized to good advantage.
Some tin cans found their way into
the small stream, In short time it
was noticed that they had every APP
pearance of being made of pure copper,
so thickly We're they coated with that
metal They We're regarded as curiosi-
ties by all who saw them, but presently
one man saw farther than the 'curiosi-
ty"-he saw the use.
lie began to experiment and found
that old cans and iron junk thown into
the water were soon destroyed, leaving
IN their stead rich deposit of copper.
lie thought it would pay to extract the
copper from the water by this process,
and Immediately purchased the exclu-
sive right to the water.
Then he put in series of reservoirs
and tanks along the little gully where
the water ran. These he filled with all
the old metal to be had in town, includ-
ing barrel hoops. At the end of six
months he found that the old junk was
totally destroyed and in its place was
sedimentary deposit in the bottom of
the reservoirs and tanks which was
eighty per cent. copper.
If a folding bed be used, contrive some

The Consolidated is the largest of the great canals of
the south side The system consists of 40 miles of main
canal IS miles of main ateras and $50 miles of smaller
ateras so distributed that 100000 of land may be
irrigated.
Besides this great system the following canals with
underlying territory must be considered The Highland
canal 20 miles, $4,000 acres the Mesa canal 10 miles, 90
600 acres the Utah. 10 miles, 10000 acres the Tempe Is
miles, 10000.
The entire region about Mesa derives its life from these
systems which are also contrbutoy in the highest de-
gree to the agricultural prosperity of the country around
Tempe
There is rapidly spreading belief that that part of the
valley in which these hourshing towns located is
the garden spot of Arizona and developments justify the
growing belief
It's not improper in this connection to describe briefly
the grounds upon which this belief based and the natural
reasons why it is So
The country about Mesa will probably within the next
ten years enjoy the widely circulated distinction of being the
most productive fruitgrowng region in the United States
as it is now known to be the chief fruit belt of the valley
1t differs sufficiently in altitude from the rest of the
valley to insure semi-tropcal fruits against danger from
frost always imminent in the most favored regions of Cali
fornia
The altitude is SIG feet higher than Tempe and 172
feet above Phoenix rendering it somewhat cooler than either
place in summer and slightly warmer in winter.

Mesa CITY, the center this lovely region ideal village
of 1900 people, situated 6S miles east of Tempe and about
II miles from Phoenix
The business and commercial interests include one
bank seven general merchandise stores hardware store
two blacksmith shops one lumber yard and two saloons
The buildings are of good character and become
more preentous yearly. AS might be expected in such
community there are excellent church and school facilities
and the is sufficiently metropolitan to support small
opera house.
Communication is maintained with the neighboring
cities of Tempe and Phoenix by of two daily stages
Three miles east of Mesa City is the prosperous village
of Lehi among whose other industries and features is
creamery the best in Arizona and known throughout the
territory.
The mesa proper extends to the river four miles north
