The American is a hustler and
when it comes to business prop
osition no other nationality can
accomplish things in a more expe-
ditious and business like manner
than he Uncle Sam displayed q
great deal of patience in the 18th
mian canal matter. He dickered
and dickered for that inter oceanic
canal upon a business basis and
with the money in hand ready to
turn it over when the goods were
delivered. But these are times
when patience ceases to be virtue
and this is the case in the canal
matter. Business is business and
and not foolishness with the Amer
loan. After many efforts to do the
right thing in the canal bargain,
uncle Sam stripped off his coat,
spat on his hands and, in the words
of the picturesque vernacular
something was doing right away.
Aud while your uncle has right
away. And while your uncle has
his coat off and his sleeves rolled
up he is going to dig that canal
and give the other nations of the
world an example of business, hard
work, hustle and ingenuity.

look at this pictare," says an ex-
change. "The poor and tax-bur-
dened farmer lives in the center of
his farm, for which he pays no
rent. He drives his own horses,
so he pays no oarfsre. He has his
own pork, mutton, beef, chickens,
turkeys, eggs. milk, butter and
vegetables and he cuts his own ice
from nearby stream, produces his
own honey, to be eaten onihis pam
cakes, made from the buokwheat
grown on his own farm. His cook
ing and heating are done by wood
from his own timber, and when he
wants more cash he sells off some
of his surplus. or takes summer
boarders He has his own tele-
phone, his mail brought to his
door, and besides score of other
advantages. In the face of all this
many are drifting to the cities.

A Sermon for Young Men.

Remember, son, that the world
is older than you are by several
years; that for thousands of years
it has been so full of smarter and
better young men than yourself
that their feet stuck out of the
dormer windows; that when they
died the old globe went whirling
on, and not one man in ten mill
ions went to the funeral, Don't
be too sorry for your father because
he knows less than yon do Re-
member the reply of DR. Wayland
to tho student of Brown University
who. said it was an easy enough
thing to make proverbs such as
Solomon wrote. "Make a few"
tersely replied the old man. The
world has great need of young men
but no greater need than the young
men have for it. Your clothes fit
better than your fathers fit him;
they may cost more money and
they are more stylish; your mus
tache is neater: the cut of your
hair is better. But, young man,
the old gentleman gets the biggest
salary. and his homely sorambling
signature on the business end of
check will drain more money out
of q bank in five minutes than you
could get out with ream of paper
and copperplate signature in six
months
