with many men in this world of
sin and sorrow. The man who
goes at his work feverishly, isn't
a. likely to make good as the calm
and self-possessed individual who
makes every motion count. And
there are so many men who occa-

then relapse into desuetude There
are countless fellows who can do
great things when they have the
inspiration some have really &C.

their lives waiting for the inspira-

who does good work every day is
the one who contributes most to
the public welfare and who is
most highly valued by his employ.
