else the moment you meet with some
little difficulty or unfortunate occur
renee. No matter what calling you
may accept, you will encounter these
things. He who meets difficulties fearE
lessly and overcomes them, is always
better man for having fought the bat
tie.
Do not get the false idea that every
proposition you receive is fraud, and
that everybody is trying to cheat you
on every deal. This is an unfortunate
state OF mind, to say the least, but it
is possessed by hundreds of people.
Although bad men find their way into
almost every walk of life, the vast ma
jority of all business propositions today
are square and honest. No lasting, per-
manent success can be bui t upon any
other foundation. If a proposition
passes between given business house
and yourself, and you can convince that
house that it will be to its distinct ad-
vantage to buy your labor or your
goods. at the time, you will make a
you must expect to have something
honest to offer, which you must pre-
sent in a confident manner, and then
you will be entitled to expect something
honest in return, which you will readi
ly receive in the majority of cases.
Develop your own worth, convince
yourself of it and then make others
recognize it. Be determined that from
this moment forward you will have
confidence in yourself, that you will
accomplish the things you desire and
that you will overcome all difficulties
in your way. Strive to acquire an ex-
haus'ive knowledge of everything that
will help you in your chosen work. Re-
solve firmly to be a man among men,
and to be big one as far as success
goes. Meet all men, no matter what
their station, with confidence and as
surance. Do not be restless in the
presence of men of o-called high es-
tate. Perhaps you know things they
do not know. Perhaps you have riches
they do not possess and cannot take
from you. Stand firm in your opinions.
Be ever ready to prove that you are
right. Establish strong character
Build firm foundation for your self
confidence. Let it stand on your
knowledge, your ability and your
worth, and it will prove dependable and
lasting. II. S. b.

brings results. But the moment the
speaker feels inferior, doubtful and
negative, that moment the living force
of his speech is lost. If you are posi-
tive and enthusiastic about your propo-
sition, the man to whom you are talk
ing will readily become enthused too,
but if you are doubtful and lack conf
dence. he will very quickly and proper
ly fix his mind the same way. While
feeling of superiority should always
be maintained, care should be exer-
cised to avoid manifesting it openly.
Have confidence in yourself. Hum
bly, believe yourself to be equal, If not
superior, to those who do the things
you wish to do, and you will certainly
win. Avoid timidity and backwardness
These are not qualities of manly men.
The world is ever ready to help the man
who comes bravely to the front. The
winner gains the applause. The victor
ious man easily goes on to greater VIC
tories. When you think of yourself,
think of success, not failure. Perhaps
you have great deal more ability than
many men who are earning more than
you are. Find out the reason. Seek
the remedy. Believe you can equal or
excel their successes. and go forward
with the one aim and determination to
do so.
Do not become discouraged and lose
confidence in yourself and everything

Just how deep the water in this new

jaeger had been employed by Aaron
Ward & Sons for thirty years, and

he felt discouraged. She tried to cheer
him but without success.
This morning Mrs. Fretz heard a
loud noise, and thinking that some o1

she mentioned 1t to them as they came
down to breakfast. None of them
however. had heard anything. 5ecom-

Judge Holds No Offense by
Eleven Accused Companies

NEW INVESTIGATION
TO BE STARTED AT ONCE
Special Grand Jury Venire Is
Ordered Called for
July IA.

CHICAGO, June 23.-Judge Lands,
in the United States District Court
here today, sustained the demurrers of
the so-called "Beef Trust" to the In
dictment charging combination in re-
straint of trade.
The Indictment, drawn on evidence
secured by agents Of the Federal gov
ernment ran against the National
Packing Company and its ten sub
sidiary companies, charging violation
of the Sherman antitrust law.
Smiles, handclasps and congratuia-
tions were exchanged with much glee
when Judge Lands announced that
the Indictment would not stand, but
the demonstration came to sudden,
almost breathless end when the court
added:
Call a special grand jury venire OF
seventy-five men for July Il"
This body will be ordered to hear tes-
timony with a view. to finding valid
indictments against the packing COM
pany. \
The indictment quashed today failed
to show, in the view of Judge Lands,
that any offense had been committed
within the last three years. 1t did not
show that during this statutory period
the defendants had been engaged IN
Interstate commerce. The general
ayerment that the packing companies
engaged in a combination in restraint
OF trade, the court declared to be 9

thority to supply entirely by infer
ence the complete omission OF SC
