majority of Americans who have

tering their condition. AS is we'll
known, Barney is a man possessed of
an abundance Of true American push
and business sagacity, and where he
could not prosper it goes without say
ing that the great majority are doomed
to utter and irretrievable failure. He
lays the burden of the trouble to the
exorbitant freight tariffs exacted by
the various railway lines traversing
the country, barely leaving the farmer
or stockman a living, no matter how
great the yields of his fields or thrift
and multiplicity of his herds Barney
had fine bunch of cattle, numbering
l50 head, and a number of horses. all
OF which he disposed of on the range.

mates his losses in the past two years

Man as Old as His Brain.

The man who can grasp and make
use of the greatest number of new
ideas is the youngest, according to
John H. Patterson, president of the
National Cash Register Company.
Mr.. Patterson, although sixty years
OF age, has just. completed trip
around the world and declares he is
younger than he has been for years.
|, In addressing his employees at the
opening of Welfare Hall-a building
erected for their beneft-Mr. Patter-
son said:
Il feel younger today than some of
you, because estimate a mans youth
in proportion to the amount of ideas
he can grasp and apply. A man to be
young must have modern ideas. He
must grasp ideas and things that are
born today. 1 once asked man how
old he was. He said, 800 years old
I replied, You don't look it, We'll,
sometimes I feel like it, he said.
You see l have travelled a great deal
and have seen five hundred times more
than the average man."
We live by experience, not by years.
Our minds travel. We gain ideas by
transportation, publicity and vertical
ton, three of the greatest things in
the world. You know what the first
two are, and by verification 1 mean
square dealing, truthfulness and hon.
esty. 1t is the man who can grasp
and make use of the greatest number
OF these new ideas that is the young.
