The newly elected Municipal Couns
Gil has unearthed a big scandal in the
accounts of Lisbon, Portugal. Over
$7,000.000 has disappeared. The
former Monarchical Councillors admit

MEN WHO FAIL

Statistics of business in the Unit
ed States prove that % per cent Of
the men who embark In lrale turn
out failures. Not all Of uhtse un-
successful men are bankrupts In the
literal issue. but they are in effect.
Their establishments go to pieces pr
pass into other hands. Men who DO
not make both ends meet are failures
The following questions were put
70 eleh, Of the country's foremost
business men-merchants, manutac-
turers. bankers: Why do 80 per
cent OF American business men fall
short OF success? Do the causes lie
in outside conditions, or in them
selves. Are the markets available to
United States merchants capable OF
supporting only per cent OF these
merchants. Is the competition too
strong to be overcome?
without exception the answers In
dictate that business failure does not
come from lack OF markets. There
is business enough. Success is pos
sible. Business is a science. Men
who STUDY IL as a science, succeed.
Men who trlfle with Il, fail.
There is a world OF practical wisdom
in the answers these eminent mer-
chants haze given. II Is reassuring
to be told that success Is not luck.
but logic. The man who reasons.
and adapts his business to reason
wins.
Business failure. in most instances
comes nom wanton disregard OF
principles that are only common
sense. Men fail because they do
things in the wrong way. To know
the right way requires no university
education. The laws Of success are
so simple that they are almost trite
