WORK HARD AND KEEP ON TOP.
obssrvanss of Simple Rule Means
 Success In Life.

Thirty years ago. in a poor school house in . back district boy at the foot of his class unexpectedly spelled . word that had passed down the en- tire class.
 "Go up ahead" said the master, -and see that you stay there. You can if you work hard"
 The boy hung his head. But the next day he did not miss a word in spelling. The brighter scholars knew every word in the lesson; hoping there might be a chance to get ahead. But there was not single one. Dave stayed at the head. He had been an indifferent speller, before, but TOW he knew every word.
 Dave, how do you get your lesson so well now?" said the master.
 T learn every word in the lesson, and get my mother to hear me at night, then I go over them fin the morning before come to school. And I go over them at my seat before the class is called up."
 Good boy, Deyel- said the master. That's the way 10 success; always work that way and you'll do."
 Dave to-day is the manager of a big lumber company. and he attributes his Start to the words:
 Go up ahead, and see that you stay there. You can if you work hard"
 Success may come sometimes unex- pectedly, but work alone can hold 1t. -Genesee Courier

Childhood.

think the memory of most of us can go farther back into such times than many of us suppose; just as l believe the power of observation In very young children to be quite won derfu for its eloseness and accuracy. Indeed, I think that most grown men who are remarkable in this respect may, with greater propriety, be said not to have lost the faculty than to acquire it, the rather, as I generally observe such men to- retain a certain freshness and gentleness, and a ca pacity of being pleased. which are also an inheritance they have preserved from childhood.

HOLIDAY TRAFFIC
Unusually Heavy-No Delay or Acci-
 dent.

Just how many passengers were car ried by the Putnam lines of the Con- necticut company on Memorial day could not be determined Tuesday, but the figures will undoubtedly show one of the best records of business for a Memorial day since the road was built In spite of the heavy traffic and the double half hourly service requiring so many extra cars, the running sched ule was maintained without a hitch. The ears were kept going with steam road precision. The thousands of pas sengers were handled without an &C., cident or injury to a. passenger, which recalls the fact that this division has a record in this respect unparalleled in the state.
