on by influence too many for oul
comprehension, too delicate fol
our observation, too far-reachine
for our foresight. When we
seem to be sacrificing things
most precious to us, we are often
receiving them back in some finer
and imperishable form; when we
seem to be working soley for
others, we are often serving our.
selves in the highest and noblest
way.
Rewards Net External
1.-The narrow external func-
ton of man is not the whole
man. He has a life we cannot
see with our eyes. What counts
in his work is not the visible out
er work so much as the faith he
has in whatever he sets himself
to do, the spirit in which it is
done, and the willingness to use
it and himself in the service of
others. Thus it is that work may
even be a failure in its outward
respects and still be a source of
rich blessing to the worker.
Honest efforts, even great genius,
do not always receive rewards of
wealth, appreciation, or position.
Some boys and girls are discour-
aged by seeing such failures in
others or by temporary failures
OF their own lives; they accept
momentary defeat as final de-
cision against them and retire
from the struggle disheartened
and vanquished. Life has gone
against them and they will strive
nomore. There are others, how
ever, to whom failure never sug-
gests anything more disastrous
than awrong method, and imper-

feet plan, a faulty piece of work
The thought of defeat never
comes to them; they will find the
defect, remedy it and strive
again. Failure to such persons
is the discipline which prepares
for success, the education which
trains for victory. Such momen.
tary defeats lie in the way OF
every great conquest in science,
in literature, art, public life or
practical enterprise. Few great
questions are settled at the start,
few great reforms are effected
in a day, few notable inventions
worked we'll on their first trial,
few strong men disclose their full
power and take their true place
by a single brilliant achievement.
Slow experimentation, frequent
failure, delay, opposition, OBJ
stacles. lie along the road to sue
cess in every line of work, and
remind us constantly that God
means that every man shall get
character out of his work even
more richly than he gets mater
ial rewards.
The chief value of a prolonged
struggle is oftener in the effort
than in the achievement. The
great charm of scholarship is in
thescholar, notin hisacquirement.
The latter serves noble purposes
but its finest result is the man
himself. The noblest outcome of
a great BUSINESS career is not in
the fortune which rewards it, but
the probity, sagacity, far-sight-
edness, and mastery of affairs
which it develops in the merchant
and financier.
There are thousands to whom

The legend Guaranteed Under

and the use of a serial number on
food and drugs is prohibited after
May l, 1915, by a food inspection
decision signed May 5 by the Sec
retaries of the Treasury, Agricul-

is postponed until May 1, 1915, in
order to give manufacturers an

After May 1, 1915, guarantees
of compliance with the law should
be given by manufacturers direct
" to dealers and should be incor-
porated in the invoice or bill Of

This guaranty should not appear

Many reputable manufacturers
have used the legend and serial
number in good faith solely as a
convenient way of notifying a
dealer that they assumed full le-

Other manufacturers have en-

his work., says Carlisle, let him
ask no other blessedness; he has
a life purpose. The whole uni
verse is keyed to a song of work.
Nothing is at rest. Everything
is constantly changing, going on
toward perfection or dissolving
| its elements into some new form
that it may do newer and better
work. Everything in nature is
working and growing. Life is
coming up out of death and de-
feat is only a starting point for a
new victory. In a world like this
we are placed and we must work
or be out of harmony with all
conditions of life in our sphere.
Work that is believed in, that is
performed in the right spirit.
that considers others as well as
self, whether it means success or
failure in material things, posses
es for us a discipline and growth
that are a positive blessing.
I'VE must believe in our work
if we are to succeed in it and
grow through its performance.
The soldier who leaves behind
the open question whether a
thing ought to be done or not, in
nine cases out of ten, retreats
along that line. The advance line
is held only by the man who be-
lieves in the end that lies before
him. and in his right to secure
that end. Nothing blights faith
in a purpose. or saps the strength
to carry it out, like skepticism.
The skepticism need not be very
deep or very radical; q very little
will go a long way in destroying

Of the mental and spiritual mis-
fortunes of our times that so

Attention Of Public to
Their Needs
The committee of railroad execu-
tives, headed by Mr. Frank Trumbull,
representing thirty-fve OF the leading
railroad systems of the nation, recent
ly presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the diff
hculties now confronting the railroads
OF the country and asking for the CO.
operation of the governmental authori-
ties and the public in supporting rail-
road credits and recognizing an emer-
gency which requires that the rail-
roads be given additional revenues.
The memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression of business on the Ameri-
can continent and in the dislocation
OF credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
OF the country face a most serious
crisis and the memorandum is a
strong presentation of the candle
burning at both ends and the perils
that must ultimately attend such a
conflagration when the flames meet
Is apparent to all. In their general
discussion the railroad representa-
uves say in part: by reason of leg
islation and regulation by the federal
government and the forty-eight states
acting independently of each other, as
well as through the action OF strong
public opinion, railroad expenses in
recent years have vastly increased.
No criticism is here made OF the gen.
eral theory of governmental regula-
ton, but on the other hand, no in
genuity can relieve the carriers OF ex-
penses created thereby"

presidents to the public. character
