HASTE MAKES WASTE.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright, 1908. by Edwin A. Nye.

Don't be in a hurry.
Modern haste is often waste. MANY
ills, economic, moral, individual, come
of it. Life may be too strenuous for
good results. The spirit of hurry, good
In its place, causes friction, clashing,
losses.
Don't be in hurry.
Many are in haste to get rich. They
patronize get-rich-quick schemes. They
speculate. Where one wins, a thou
sand, ten thousand, lose There is only
one safe way to make money-the old
fashioned way Of honesty, industry,
economy. That way is slow, but it is
reasonably sure.
Don't be in hurry
Young persons get in a haste to be
educated. Education is a GROWTH.
knowledge, experience, must not only
be digested, but assimilated. That re-
qulres time. 1t does not delay the boy
or girl to stop between terms to teach
school. Opportunity is given to put
into practice some of the things learned
in college.
Don't be in hurry.
Some are in haste to make a reputa-
ton, but reputation without character
behind it is worthless. And character
Is a GROWTH. Mushroom characters
will make mushroom regulations. You
will be taken for what you are The
world will size you up. Build solidly.
Don't be in hurry.
You cannot expect to get rich quick,
educate yourself in a day or build a
reputation on fimsy foundation
Don't be in hurry.
Mind and body can only be strength
ened by DEVELOPMENT. That takes
time. Science has given it out that
RELAXATION Is the secret of mental
and physical life. Nervous and mus
cular contraction Is wearing the hur-
ried man to a fragile. Therefore men
and women are excitable, fractional, er-
ratio; therefore the breakdowns, the
asylums. 1t is the constant TENSION
Of nerve and muscles. Relax frequent
ly. You Will succeed better. You will
live longer.
Don't be IN hurry.
Suppose you get wealth. How viii
you enjoy it or use it to the advantage
Of the world IL you are worn out. en-
ervated, wrecked? Suppose you get an
education and, like Thomas Curran,
aged twenty, of the senior class of
Yale, '03, you receive your diploma on
your deathbed, having killed yourself
for a piece Of sheepskin. Suppose
you gain reputation for brilliancy and
give in exchange we'll balanced, ami
able mind or sound physique.
| Don't be in a hurry.
| Work steadily. sanely, surely. Hold
the even tenor of your way.

SOUTH CAROLINA FARMERS.

Sumter, S. c.. May This city is

witnessed here before. First and fore
most among the attraction is the an

South Carolina division of the Travel

main in the city two days and plans of
an elaborate character have been made

NJ Gross The composition is added when the
road is being rolled and pressed into shape
The congress has provided a grand opportu-
nifty for exchange OF views of experts on road
building from all parts OF the world, including
China and Japan The most important result
is the establishment Of permanent interna-
tionaI bureau consisting of the president and
presidents Of the general board and OF the
sections of the osngress.
1t was agreed by the congress that motor
vehicles used for touring, pleasure social
purposes cause no appreciable damage to road
ways. provided that the average speed does not
exceed ten miles an hour. and the maximum
speed fifteen miles hour. Above these speeds
the wear and tear on the roads Is very serious.
A resolution was passed IN which the congress
affirmed that for the proper maintenance of
roads 1t was necessary that the weight of the
driving axle be reduced to an absolute minimum.
that the weight of the heaviest axle should not
exceed three tons when working and that the
pressure on each centimetre Of the width of the
wheel rim should not exceed $50 Kilograms
or 300 pounds The resolution also Included
expression Of opinion to the effect that motor
vans for commercial purposes cause no excep-
tionaI damage to the roads so long as: Cd The
average speed is not than nine miles
hour and the maximum speed does not exceed
fifteen miles, and the weight Of the heaviest
axle does not exceed three tons. with tires OF
india rubber,
"(2) When the average speed Is six miles an
hour and the maximum nine miles. the weight
of the heaviest axle when working not exceed
ing four tons. and the driving axle to have
metallic tires with smooth faces"
In all cases the pressure of the tires per CEN
timetre must not exceed 80 Kilograms Mr..

The men associated with Moyneux, those who
have borne the brunt Of the early struggles, pre-
ferred compromise TO endless patent litigation and
asked John w. Poler to join them. They also pur-
chased outright HIe patents of various folding
mechanisms, stamping devices and inclosing feat
ures such that OF the Lnjeros, and formed the
Molyneux Mailing Machines Company Their object
TO avoid possible litigation. and to be
able to make the claim of controlling outright
and Internationally all patent rights any
mechanical means for opening an envelope; for
placing any number of insertions into the
same, closing 1t by either sealing or tucking
in the flap, which would. indeed seem TO constitute
a basic monopoly Of great value in the business
world in the United States and abroad. They
encouraged in their belief by the opinions of lead
ing patent attorneys, and practical plans for
Quoting the business a large scale go
ing The company Will lease the various ma
chimes which compose the Moyneux system and il
will therefore be necessary to establish branches
in the leading commercial centres, which Il is Pro-
posed do by creating subsidiary companies, con-
troed by the original organization. In addition to
the leased machines under the supervision of each
local manager the local custom work will be done
by him with the cooperation Of all the branches

New-York tribune., 1908-11-08
NO DEAD LISTS POSSIBLE.

Much Importance is attached in the business world
TO freshly prepared and up to date lists OF manu-
facturers, trades and professions. well all
special lists. There are number Of concerns which
make a business OF supplying them. They also un-
dertake TO assume charge Of the entire printing and
mailing transaction The constant changes in these
lists varying sometimes 20 per cent year, make 1t
almost impossible TO insure their reliability. though
every effort be mad. They often careessly pre-
pared at some central Office from directories and
other lists not reliable themselves.
In this connection the MolyneuX system through
its subsidiary companies and because of the
mechanical possibility of duplicating these lists
for each Office of rapidly exchanging Them will
provide q real want in the business world in addi-
ton TO eXpeditlng and simplifying its present
methods. If each local company prepares its own
lists and may have the useS for its customers, of
those in the central other offices, there will be
every reason TO expect reasonable accuracy and
freshness of revision impossible under the usual
.r,f flnlnra
