his web again, shifting to a new place

But men, unluckily, are not always
gifted with determination.
Even the industrious are often very
easily discouraged-very likely to
think they are victims Of fate or are
conspired against. Nothing Is easier
than to give up after three or four
failures. Nothing is easier than to
make up your mind you cannot do
anything important or worth while,
and so settle into q little narrow rut
watching others outstrip you, with a
dull resignation which Is foolshly mis-.
