Bad management keeps more people
in poor circumstances than any other
one cause. TO be successful one must
look ahead and plan ahead so that
when favorable opportunity presents
itself he is ready to take advantage of
it. A little forethought will also save
much expense and valuable time. A
prudent and careful man will keep a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house,
the shiftless fellow will wait until me-
