STANFORD'S FIRST EARNINGS
Dug Horse-radish, Washed It, and
Toted 1t to Market.
Man Who Amassed Millions Began
with the Pennies iR His
Youthful Days.

Leland StanfoTd's first earnings were
the result OF digging h0rse-radish. wash
ing it, and carrying il 10 the nearest
town, says Spare Moments. He received
as his share Of the enterprise Is cents. He
was then six years old In his eighth
year he worked hard. gathering chest
nuts, which he sold for So.
During successive years he toiled on the
farm IN the summer and attended school
IN the winter, all the time dreaming Of q
college education and later OF becoming A
lawyer. When he was eighteen there was
no money in sight for the carrying out OF
his cherished plans, and the outlook. to
say the least, was not encouraging. Con
sequently, he hailed with delight his faith
er's offer 20 low him the profits from
clearing Il tract Of woodland recently pur-
chased. He was to have all he could
make selling cordwood.
He went at il with zest, hiking other
Wocdchoppers to help him, and before a
year OF the hardest kind OF toll had ended
he had chopped and shipped more than
TWO thousand cords Of wood and had in
the bank $3.50. He did not lose sight of
his purpose, but used the money 10 finish
his common school education and then at
a law school
When Charles Tiffany. on 1900 capital
borrowed from his father, established
store dealing IN ornaments and fine work
in gold and silver, right on the heels Of
the great panic OF 1887. he showed an un-
derstanding OF human nature that indi-
Gated an original mind as well as an in
dependent one. His success was almost
instantaneous. He appealed to a side Of
human desire that had been ignored and
the response was heavy and continuous.
His use OF the first great Atlantic cable
illustrates his shrewd business sense.
Hardly had the attempt 10 lay the cable
proved a failure before he bought all the
unused wire. had It cut up into different
shapes and sizes, attractively mounted
and offered for sale as souvenirs. They
sold Ike hot cakes and netted him a
handsome sum.
