Getting up in cold room to make
FIRE is like getting up in life. II
you crawl timidly out OF bed, go or
tiptoe to the stove, and allow the
shivers to get control Of you before
the kindling starts, your fire will
probably be O failure and you viii
half freeze to death in the operation
But il you jump up bravely, hustle
around, pull on your clothes, knock
over o chair or two, and pitch in the
stove wood, you will probably bt
too warm before the fire gets to
burning, and have to open the win
dow. So in life. Attack it timidl,
and you will fail Grapple with it
hurry up things, stir around, con
quer fortune and you will be q sue
cess.-Ex.
