Men Who Think.

When a man makes serious blum

In an Improbable enterprise, his ex-
cuse is, Il didn't think" He should
have reflected on his enterprise before
engaging in 1t. II is the duty Of every
man to think. Thinking is the impor-
tant thing In business. Every man
should take from FIVE to fifty minutes
each day and divorce his mind from
the strenuous activity surrounding
him and devote the time to thought
The brain is like the muscle; 1t must
have exercise or It becomes flabby.
Cultivate concentration of thought;
study your sphere of usefulness; cut
out the weeds that grow in your brain;
get out OF the mental rut you are in:
stop drifting; keep your brain active.
Men are paid for either what they
think or what they do with their mus

Mans muscles have limit; he can
move just SO much matter by physical
force. but by thinking he has unlim-
tied possibilities. The world offers
golden prizes to the man who thinks.
You can cultivate your brain; you can
