bold ventures had brought himself to
an eminence which carried rating Of
100000 when he moved to New

Jay Gould, with whom he engaged in

profited in this campaign, he broke
with Gould shortly afterwards, alleg-

years, earned only $500, working beside

The great captains of industry of to-
day were the poor boys of thirty years
ago. 1t was not a wealthy parent nor an
influential friend who started these men
on the road to fortune; they made their
own opportunities they fought their own
battles; they have won.
What Is the secret of their success
What is that irresistible force which has
enabled them to overcome all obstacles,
to surpass their fellow-meni Every am
bilious young man Is searching for this
secret. He believes that honesty, So
briefly, perseverance, and determination
are essentials in the foundation on which
to build successful career, and yet he
realizes that he must possess something
more than these mere prerequisites if he
would achieve conspicuous success.
Those who have studied the lives of
successful men will tell you that they all
possessed certain force of character
the power to mould the opinions and
direct the actions of others. John D.
Rockefeller has often said that he at
tributes his success largely to his ability
to influence and control the minds of
men. How to acquire that power Is told
by Mr.. Edward Box in his Lecture, "Keys
to Success" the most inspiring address to
young men ever heard from an American
platform. Mr.. Box does not preach
theory; he gives good, sound, practical
advice. He tells young men just how
they can develop those qualities indis-
pensable to success, and win both money
and power. Every word is suggestive
and inspiring.

D. Morris and Company, 1903 Chestnut

Keene had heaped up his profits In
cash and was known to have as much

dertook to corner the wheat market.
An attempt to bull Jersey Central
stocks, conducted at the same time as
the wheat corner, was similarly I'M
profitable, for the stock went down
forty points in one day. Whether
Keene might have succeeded in his
wheat corner or not will never posi-

brokers ordering them to sell 100000
bushels of wheat. They threw 1t on
