Using Time.

1t is always easier to wish that We
had more time than to use the time
that we have. SO, by wasting time In
wishing, we still further reduce the
precious asset Of the actual and only
time that is really ours. The person
who is not capitalizing all the time
he has at the rate of sixty seconds tc
the minute would not be much bet
ter off with forty-eight hours in his
day. Those who turn out what is, tt
the rest of us, discouragingly large
amount of work, have simply learned
the art of using all their time-par.
ticularly the hooks and corners, the
odds and ends, OF their time. They
utilize FIVE or ten-minute scrap OF
time as eagerly as they do a halliday
Aud so things get done, and theil
years output seems stupendous. With
the average man. unless he can see
several hours clear for a piece oil
work, he will attempt little out of the
ordinary; and that is why he remains
an average man.-Sunday Schoc
