NOTHING SUCCEEDSL LIKE SUCCESS.

Thirty years ago a young man
named Samuel NJ. Bryan, a clerk in
the postotiice department at Washing
ton, received notice that his services
were no longer needed. Incompetency
was the reason given forhis dismissal.
When he looked over his stock in
trade, he found that it consisted of
something less than hundred dollars
in cash and great idea. 4 week
latter he was on his way to San
Francisco, one gOod.nature postal
clerk after another allowing him to
ride in his car. On reaching San
Frarcisco he secured a place as purser
on steamship bound for Japan, and
in due time found himself in Toxic.
Once in Japan's chief city, he pro-
ceeded without delay to put his great
idea into execution. What he pro-
posed was to perfect and put in opera
ton. in japan, a postal system
modelled after that of the United
States Bryan found willing listeners
among the high japanese officials and
in due time was requested to prepare
"A prospectus Of his system TO be sub
mitted to the mikado. Its value was
at once recognized and its adoption
ordered, Bryan was placed at the
head Of the new department. with a
salary of eleven thousand dollars Il
year, aud entrusted with the negotia-
ton Of postal treaty between Japan
and the United States. y few months
later he was back in Washington as
the envoy of the japanese government,
treating on equal terms with the man
who had dismissed him for iucompet-
ency. The treaty, which he negotiated
with skill and diplomacy, proved sat
sfactory TO all concerned, Bryan
remained some fifteen years in the
service Of the japanese government,
He then returned to the United States
rich man. 1t is interesting to con-
lecture what his career might have
been had he not lost his place in the
postolllce department.
