EnloyInu Your Employment.

IT love with your work Is one OF
the sources--daily sources--of profta-

It. Desire to do something well helps
people succeed though working at
their second or third choice of EN-.
ployment A Chicago man with a ma.
tional reputation told me he had never
done the work he always wanted to
do. The work he wanted to do may
have been some youthful fancy. He Is
q great success In the work he has
done. Interest In your work brightens
your eye, sharpens your thought and
quickens your ear. We are continually
walking over good things--better
things profitable opportunities. While
waiting with friends for belated

how many would walk over 1t. We

ment, as dozens Of people walked over
It. Then we got the value Of the coin
again when we saw the joyful face of
the old lady with basket who found
the coin, but did not see us. Greater
interest In our work lessons the num-
Der Of good things walked oyer-it

straight. A short-sighted person could |
see a dime on a high hitching post,

to the right side in the region Of the
liver, The boy Is now in the Memori-

About two weeks ago his parents
noticed that he had great difficulty in
breathing. When the first physician
was called the apex of the boys heart
was found to be about an inch and
half lower than 1t should be. 1t contin.
ued to sink until 1t was four inches
out of place. Then he was taken to
the hospital, 1t was only by constant
ly administering stimulants that he
was kept alive. The pulse was inter
mittent, the beats sometimes regis
tering only fifty to the minute.
But the lad is getting better. The
apex of the heart is moving upward
again until 1t is only about an inch
and a half below the normal plane.

says: "The boss has been spending

year on his racing stable and he never
expects to get much of 1t back, But he
has got rid ofsone sort Of nuisance
since he settled at Vantage When
he first became interested in racing
he was deluged with letters from peo-
pie who knew where he could buy
thoroughbreds at sacrifice that
would win every event in which they
started. Thousands Of such letters
were thrown into the waste basket.
The boss kept one, which he has
now in his scrap book. 1t was from
a farmer down in Long Island who
offered to let the boss have a horse
he owned and didn't really need ex-
cept during planting time, provided
the boss would guarantee SIS and di'
vide the money won.'

For the Individual
Private Time Possibilities.

Thirty minutes a week for thirty
years IL sufficient time for any person
to develop useful side-line subject
to an altitude requiring international
attention.
Private time study requires a great
selfcontrol. Generally there is no
time for 1t or too much time spent on
1t. Zeal for short time Is easier than
persistency and good Judgment for
decades.
One Of the most successful lawyers
in the United States told me that a
night school was of great use to him.
He attended class after he had been
admitted to the bar, to overcome one
Of his deficiencies.
Here are a few items from my LET.
ter to young people on ten minutes
day for ten years:
A minute is something like a dime.
1t can be used usefully or abused
shamefully.
1t can be invested In a way 10 bring
good interest In a money-muscle.mind
manner.
1t Is fortunate for young people to
voluntarily see this manner.
1t is expensive experience to have
to learn 1t inyoluntarily.
Take a note book costing a dime,
more or less, and spend ten minutes
with 1t day, three hundred days
year
In ten years that means fifty days
Of ten hours each.
If, at the end of ten years, you can
say the five hundred hours have In
creased your ability from two to TWEEN
.y-1Ve per cent you Will not regret
your efforts.
You can do this, and II you do 1t
,ou are sure 10 gain by 1t.
Every day add sentence or para
,raph you think worth saving.
Watch for something to write or
taste in your book; have your eyes,
ars and mind ever ready to catch
God hints in your work and recrea.
ion, your reading and conversation.
Every day re-read some one para
raph or sentence and try to twist 1t
Ito fresh shape to help you do the
est you can to-day, and, II possible,
etter tomorrow.
Life is worth living when we know
