A CHEMISTRY ANALYSIS.

Men can be divided into personal
qualities just as a grain of wheat
can be divided into elements.
There is organic and inorganic
chemistry, and we might have a third
chemistry dealing with the elements
of personality.
The only reason for giving these ell
ements of the man himself is to state
the subjects to he studied. The fruit
full part of research is the finding OF
useful information on the daily
sources of the desirable qualities.
In an aggressive effort to grow de-
sirable forces the undesirable are
overcome, displaced, crowded out and
starved.
Few men are perfect, rather no
man is perfect" few men approach
perfection. Are not the strong tempt
ed to be dishonest and the weak
tempted to inactivity?
Certainly men should learn to work
together, to help each other, to look to
each other for each others wisdom.
The plunger and the over-conserva'
tive should recognize peculiar quail
ties of each other and unite to make q
strong and very successful team.
Inherited tendency, environment
and education compound man just
as chemist would compound prod.
uct of the laboratory.
Desire and reason enable a man to
resist, counterfeit and conquer en-
emies within and around him. Have
you noticed that some very strong
men physically are most particularly
tempted to be mental imitators moral
towards and treacherous friends? I'm
less they know this, and know how to
fight the tendencies, they become vic
Tins of them.
Very weak men. physically, are
| tempted to seek escape from physical
demands. and unless they recognize
| their enemy some distance away and
| fight 1t skillfully 1t will make them
trouble, it will make them SLAVES.
In going among all classes Of work
ers and all degrees of mental altitude,
| find some men are unconscious spe-
cialists in the management or them
selves. They have had the compan-
ionship of wise men and absorbed
wisdom and thus acquired intuition.
Some become wise also by getting
down and helping others up.
A young man alighted from train
and had just twenty-five cents in his
pocket. This money he paid the hack
man to carry him to his uncle's home.
The young mans father was poor
| a pnOd
business man. The young man became
good business man and very sue
cessful lender and collector of money.
The young mans mother may have
given him commercial elements or
success, but the uncle's instruction,
wear after year, must be recognized
as of great value banker told me
that certain amount of executive
ability could be acquired by instruc-
ton and attention.
An advertising concern starts with
a half million dollar capital and loses
IT, Another concern starts with three
thousand dollars and makes half
million. Why and how should be
worthy of careful Investigations and
beginners should respect reports that
are unbiased.
Some claim that unless there Is
man inside with sufficient indepen-
dent ability there is nothing outside
, of a concern which can lead 1t to per-
, manent success. Can a man with
|, nearly enough ability acquire a neces-
, sary amount? Yes, he can II he Is
willing to go at it in the right man
| ner.
