HOW TO SUCCEED...BE SUCCESSFUL,

Almost every periodical publish
ed within the borders of the
United States contains advertise
ments of firms which offer to i'm
part information to young men as
to how to succeed. There may be
a great deal of merit in the adj
vertisements and in the methods
used to give adequate return to
those who pay to learn the secrets
of success from those who adver-
tise. Those who have no money
to invest to learn these secrets,
however, have no reason to give
up hope.
Here is a bit of advice that will
go as far as any that was ever
paid for: The only way to sue
coed is to be successful. Dosen't
sound very profound, does it?
1t isn't. It's about as simple as
anything that has ever been
printed, and at first sight it may
appear idiotic. But there Is a lot
I'M it. The man who succeeds is the
man who brings to a successful
termination every minutes I'M
dertaking of every days activity.
The successful mans life is made
up of a myriad of successes. If
you let one little item of your days
work get by you without satisfy
yourself that you have done your
best on it on it. you are heavily
handicapping yourself. If you
form the habits of letting the lit
tie things slide, you are preparing
for failure. A million treatises
on how to be successful will not
help you.
The trouble with too many of us
is that we are so busy trying to
see a great success in the future
that we can't see the chances for
little successes under our noses.
Heaven Is not reached at a single
bound, and neither is success.
The only way to succeed is to be
successful. 1t is worth thinking
over. st. Paul Daily News.

BE KIND In LITTLE THINGS.

The sunshine of life is made
up of very little beams that are
bright all the time. In the nursery
on the play, ground and it the
school room, there is room all the
time for little acts of kindness
that cost nothing but are worth
more than gold or silver. To give
up something when giving up
will prevent unhappiness; to
yield when peristing will chafe
and fret others; to go a little way
around rather than come against
another; to. resent it; these are
the ways in which clouds and
storms are kept off and a
pleasant, smiling sunshine Sc
cured even in an humble home,
among very poor people, as well
as in families of higher station.
Much that we term the miseries
of life would be avoided by
adopting this rule of conduct.

HOW TO GET TRADE.

The purpose of store advertis-
ing is not merely to sell goods,
but to sell more goods, to make
friends, to build up a patronage
that will not only stick, but
grow. Newspapers reach the
greatest number of people in
their immediate vicinity in the
most natural way, at the least
expense, and they are, therefore
the best of all advertising me-
diums for stores. In the news
paper you follow the lines Of
least resistance, you follow with
the stream, you talk to an audi
ence already assembled, to the
people who want to read. Their
mental cosmos is right, they are
on your wire, and they won't
ring off if you hold their interest.
Attraction is the basis of adver-
ing-the store is the sun, the
customers the planets that re-
volve around it.
