ABILITY WINS.

Life is what we make 1t. We can make a success of life'S work or we can make a failure of 1t. The whole thing rests with us and we are responsible for the choice we make. This is an age in which the young business man is measured by what he can do. Ability tells the whole story. He must be trained to do things easily, quickly and the best way. Those who are thoroughly train ed in the business branches and are full of energy and ambition always win in the battle of life. Without doubt and without ques- tionHill's Business College is one of the best places in the world to learn bookkeeping, shorthand and typewriting as they are used in usiness houses.

The shorthand system used is the easiest and quickest system yet discovered. Easy terms by mail. Fifty dollar scholarships are now $42. 50. Telegraphy $35.

LEFT ON her DOORSTEP
FOR THIS MOTHER

Mrs. A. G. Tuson, of Livermore, Cal,
writes: 81 picked up from my door
step one day a little book in which |
soon became very much interested.
My little girl of five years of age had
been troubled for a long time with
loss of appetite, extreme nervousness
and undue fatigue. She was all rum
down and in very delicate condition.
This little book was very compre-
hensiyely written, and told of the new
method of extracting the medicinal ele-
ments of the Gods liver from the oil,
eliminating the obnoxious oil which is
SO hard for children to take.
Just the thing, said I, for my little
daughter and l Immediately went for
a bottle of Ninol. 1t helped her Won
derfully. She has gained rapidly in
flesh and strength, and she does not
take cold half so easily.
Il am extremely grateful for the
good it has done her, and l hope other
mothers who have weak, delicate or
ailing children will be benefited by my
experience and just give Ninol trial"

Well, who now living in South Car
olina has ever heard of grandchlld
in the governors mansions. Not since
the War Of Secession das thi been
known. But there is happiness at
the mansion now, for the news comes
from Florida that Gov. Ansel is
grand faith pr. And no grandchlld
perhaps ever had grandfather more
of the type. Kindly, thoughtful and
considerate, the governor Of South
Carolina is the very kind Of man
whom children would love. 1t mas
been remarked frequently since Gov.
Ansel came into Office that he was
such considerate host whenever he
had gone anywhere with an official
party and that he is always "as
easv as al old shot" in any company
It would be a pretty question for
the clerk Of the state historical So
ciety or some other deliver into his
torv to find out if there were many
Of the governors Of the state who
were erandfathers at the time that
thev we're chief executives.

ic. The banks are in better conIl-
ton Oh Jan. /, 1905, tnan they ever
were after such crisis The reports
of condition Of the national banks
show that from Aug. 22 to Dec. 5
individual deposits decreased but
$l42, 100000 or ABOUT 3 IA per cent;
while the decrease in cash OIL hand
was but 100000 and the increase
in bills payable and rediscounts was
about $42,OOO,000.

disappearance Of aay premium on
currency in the last few days shows
that the strain is relieved. Most OF
the reserve cities are up to their la-
gal requirements, many OF them tar
above it, and the country banks as a
whole are in the same o0h>ILio1.
1--WE have had a very severe bank
panic. It might, however, have been
worse and would have been much
worse, but for the aid given by the
treasury department and some OF
the leading financial men OF the
country.
1T would seem but fair conclu-
sion that the acute bank trouble IS
past; that payments may be and IN
tact are being resumed so rapidly
that normal conditions Of payment
and remittances may be now assured.

be rearranged. We shall have more

and probably some more bank TALL

a period of retrenchment and hqulda-
ton, but there is reason to believe 1t
will not be so long or trying as IT
has been at other times. We have
had a money panic as bad as 1898,
but the fundamental strength of con-
ditions has enabled us to stand the
curtailment Of credits, and dlsar-
rangement Of domestic exchanges
with far less disastrous results than
in 1898.

reduced our expenses, the great re-
sources Of the land will revive our
