lone Business Success.

If the business man be wise he puts all
his eggs in one basket, and then watches
that basket. Ii he is merchant in
coffee, he attends to coffee; If NOR
chant in sugar, he attends to sugar and
lets coffee alone, and only mixes then
when he drinks his coffee with sugar in
it. If he mine coal and sell it, he attends
to the black diamonds; if he own and
sails ships. he attends to shipping. and
he ceases to insure his own ship just as
soon as he has surplus capital and can
stand the loss Of one without imperr ling
sojvency; if he manufacture steel, he
sticks to steel, and severely let's copper
alone; II he mine ironstone, he sticks
to that, and avoids every other kind of
ming silver and gold-minlng especially.
This is because a man can thoroughly
master only one business. and only an
able man can do this. l have never yet
ret the man who fully understood two
different kinds of business; you cannot
