More than Chance Back of .MiIIionaires
 Assets.

With the one exception of inherit ance there is not a prominently
 wealthy man in the public eye today
 who can be said to have amassed his money through luck.
 While it is true that every invest
 ment they make, especially those of
 which the public are aware, seem to
 show evidence of the Midas touch,' %
 we must remember that these invest ments are being made after years of
 training and experience, which enable the financier to forecast results to a
 practical certainty. The strongest
 characteristic of these men is will power.
 Rarely are persons found who do not
 have a desire and hope for ultimate in dependence, but still more rare are the ones who have the stamina to really make any attempt to save money or actually bring about their own for tune.
 The end of each successive week. month and year finds them in the same condition as at it's start.
 Should an offer of a partnership for only a few hundred of dollars be of fered them in some good paying busi- ness they would be in no position to avail themselves of the opportunity.

LICK VERSUS TAcK

In all kinds of trade there is, strict
 ly speaking, no such thing as luck
 The gambler may be lucky in shuffiing his cards, but the merchants pursuit in buying and selling is no game of chance. His success is based on know ledge and tact on the principle of trade and a wise selection of means to ends. He will hit his mark by the steadiness of his hand, the directness of his aim and singleness of purpose. Success in business lies in the man himself; with a strong will and a cultured mind, de- termined purpose, firm in his cOnvic- tiOns and backed by a spirit of enthu- siasm. Possessing these requisites he will triumph over all obstacles and in

A Language Lesson.

FROM the 81. Louis POst-DlSpatch.
Beautiful is an adjective applied chiefly to
brides, heroines OF novels and ladies In dis
tress. The word Is derived from the French
word "beaut, meaning corker a peach, q
lallapaioosa. 1t is employed principally by
society editors novelsts, newspaper report
ers and poets. and holds Its age and shape
well, in spite of constant activity and over
work. The only novelist who never used
the word was Rhoda Broughton. Her hero
Inc Belinda was green-eyed. freckled and
cantankerous, and Is the only unbeautlfled
heroine on record. just as the count in Will
kie Collins THE Woman In White" is the
only fat villain. The only poet who has
never used 1t is Swinburne. He always
compares his heroines to serpents. they are
so wise and sinuous. The society editor or
newspaper reporter who has never worked
1t to a silvery edge does not live. contrary
to the rules OF the Society for the Proven
ton of Cruelty to Inoffensive Adjectives.
One of the deepest mysteries of modern life
Is, since every bride Is beautiful. how does
1t come that there are 30 many ugly mar
ried women?

ner addressed the multitude who had come
to decorate the graves of the sleeping SOL
diers. Mr.. Warner said:
We meet to celebrate not only time
honored custom, but to express our graft
tude for services rendered our country. to
lay a nations tribute upon the graves of
those who fought and sacrificed in her
service.
The custom of decorating the graves
of soldiers with flowers originated in the
south. but it soon extended throughout the
whole country. and in 1868 was established
by an order of Gen. John a. Logan, COM
mander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the
Republic He then read Gen. Logan's or
der and continued
1.-THE Grand Army of the Republic has
ever since taken a prominent part in OBJ
serving the day, and in many sections bust
ness is practically suspended. AS years
pass away and the bitterness engendered by
and following the civil war is forgotten. a
common day will probably be chosen in all
parts of the country for recalling and COM
memorating in a formal way the deeds of
valor of both the blue and the gray. The
civil war gave common sorrow. Peace
now reigns in the land
God preserved the Union through fear
full sacrifice. and today our flag floats over
the greatest nation of the earth, composed
of the most patriotic people. This occasion
is an object lesson to the young and re-
calls the patriotic aspirations of men VINO
feared not TO lay down their lives. Were
they alive today they would, with the spir-
its OF brave men, JON IN the ceremonies OF
placing flowers upon the graves of their an

Less when a struggle is over and peace is
resumed
AN over land the ceremonies are
rendered lay people who love the country
in which they dwell. The civil war wrote
new and glorious pages in the history Of
our country. 1t raised the flag higher for
the admiration OF the world, and when
peace came the soldiers of both armies we're
glad to resume the duties of citizenship
and as time has removed us from the ac-
tivities of campaign life, those who were

other and now can meet in friendly inter-

Amid a great hubbub the old circus man

pipe and directing the making of the rings.
''Circuses." he said. have developed,
evolved and changed. From the one ring of
the past they have grown to three rings,
plus elevated stage, and there are many
Other improvements. But In one particular
there has been no change since time began
and that Is in the dimensions of the ring A
circus ring Is always the same size-forty-
two feet nine inches In diameter. Go where
you Will, you will never find a circus ring
with different dimensions from that.
"A bareback rider can ride best in a ring
of this size. All riders train in such ring
and all horses are trained In such a ring.
There would be trouble for horses and men
If the size of the ring should be changed. 1t
would be like changing the size Of the base
ball diamond, only worse"
