fades away out Of sight then expect a wonderfully
good sfOt.
The same thing Is true in oil the practical af
fairs Of life. Havo just ono single aim in view.
and tho chsnces you'll hit the mark That's tho
wny to succeed In anything: that's tho wuy to
conipiish gront things. TO hnve purpose In
mind and stick to Il. and give all tho thoughts und
all the energies accomplish that one object: that
means success. It's the same in everything; In
