THE flush of success is in doing
what you want the most to
do, and what you can the best
do. Unless you can do well what
you want to do, the fullness of re-
suit is impossible. Conversely, un-
less you want to do what you can
do well, small result is likely to
occur.
While what you want to do ap-
pears to be subordinate to what you
can do, so much do / believe in the
assistance of cooperation, or de-
sire, that l would place want to
do" ahead of "can do"
l would advise you, first to con-
slider what you want to do, and
then to determine whether or not
you can do it. If you find that
what you want to do you cannot
do well, then make no attempt in
that direction and choose some
thing else which you want to do,
and continue until what you want
to do and what you can do connect;
but, in the meantime, don't loaf;
do something, even if you don't
want to do it.
Keep busy. Science and endeavor
can move the hills, hut add love to
them and you can move mountains.
More than half of the failures are
those who don't love their work,
but make drudgery of it; who do
it because they have to, or because
they think they have to. They then
become automatic machines, combi-
nations of springs, wheels, and lev
ers, assimilated and controlled, not
by the head of desire, but by the
spinal marrow of necessity.

would not clip one chip from
the monument of faithfulness.' l
would not remove a microscopic
fraction from the worth of persis-
tency; but I would say that mere
faithfulness by itself, and mere per-
sistency by itself, or the two to-
gether, will produce only ordinary
result; while, if love, ambition, and
desire be added to them, no one can
foresee the length, breadth, and
depth of the result.
Keep steadily at your work, no
matter how menial or disagreeable
it may be, until something better
crosses your path.
Don't despise menial work. Don't
allow dissatisfaction with what you
have to do to interfere with your
duty. Try to love everything you
do, and bring to bear upon it the
force of your character and the en-
thusiasm of your energy. Keep
continually at it, whether you be a
bootblack, or occupy the highest
position. Throw all your faithful
ness, all your persistency, and all
the energy, and all the good there
is in you into this work, realizing
that, without fundamental faithful
ness and basic persistency, love will
have no ground to grow upon.
But add love and desire to these
fundamental or basic things, and
then even the dry earth will bring
forth a harvest, and hard things
will be softened.
Without love there is no sun
shine, and all work is drudgery.

deavor Is Being Made to Pre-

ter fled yesterday.
II yesterday developed through the
statements of witnesses placed on the
stand that the carriers In making the in
creases had made every endeavor to pre-
serve competitive conditions among ship
pers and that differentials in export and
import rates would not be disturbed by
the increase because all were increased

practically was the only article or COM
modify on which rates had not been in
creased.
C. c. Mccain, chairman OF the Trunk
Line Association OF New York. was put
on the stand to explain the way the B
per cent increase was worked out. Dur
ing his testimony under questioning by
Commissioner Clements II developed that
il was estimated that the proposed IN
crease would amount to between $4,000, 900
and $50, 900 per annum. This approxi-
nation was made by o. Z. Butterfeld,
counsel for the New York Central Lines.
Mr. Mccain also testified that the tariffs
which have been filed with the Interstate
Commerce Commission show the .
Ter cent increase applied to rates within
States as well as interstate rates. George
Stuart Patterson. representing the car
riers, then explained that none Of the
proposed rates as effective at the pres
ent time and all awaited the decision OF

day George NJ. Shriver. vice president Of

bles and statistical matter showing loss

lures generally. He was followed by w.
C. Maxwell, general trafflc manager of
the Wabash Railroad. who testified as
TO the financial position and results Of
