Every man gets the education he

Thirty per cent of the men who fail
in business do so because they lack
the know how" They have no
business ability. In the previous
talk we have endeavored to show
that the first essential when a man
engages in business and borrows
money, or seeks credit, is business
character, and that this character is
more than honesty. Of all risky
credit, the worse is that which has
merely honesty back of it. How
ever honest man may be, if he
lack the ability to make good" he
cannot pay; for good intentions
pay no debts. Banks are turning
down loans by the hundred that
are backed by honesty only. The
world is full of honest men,-so
honest that they wouldn't take a
paper from a newsstand, or ride in
a trolley gratis, but are down and
out because they lacked the ability
to make the business 60.
We put no discount upon the i'm
portant element of honesty, but
logic will quickly demonstrate that
unless back of honesty there is abil-
ity the enterprise is sure to fail.
Many a business has been left in a
healthy state by father to a son,
only to go to pieces because the son
did not inherit the fathers ability
and could not see that it was nee
cessary to buy or acquire it.
Therefore the second thing the
banker expects to find in your bus
mess life is business ability. This
is easily demonstrated by your past
performances. Your advertising
your store, your dress, your bank
account, your energy, your deliv-
cry wagon,-all carry evidence of
what you can do. Many a business
man has been eking out miserable
existence, sitting around, waiting
for something to turn up, hoping
something will come to the town to
make business better, having ten
places for every dollar he gets his

THE strike situation on the Mes
aba range has undergone material
change during the past week.
While the Hibbing and Chisholm
districts report unlawful acts on the
part of the strikers and more men
quitting work the general opinion
seems to be that the leaders have
about MIXED the range dry and
will soon leave. When it is con-
sidered that some 5000 men have
been led to the desk of the leaders
at so much per lead it can be seen
that some money has been collected.
Several of the leaders have been ar
rested and in each case have paid
their fines and bail money from the
treasury. Those who have joined
are now asking when the payments
to the strikers are to come in as
many are missing the payday. So
far the leaders have been long on
promises but short on cash when
any of the strikers were to be
helped. Many others are also be-
ginning to see the difference be-
tween over s. day they were get
ting in hand before the strike aud
the plain So day they were strik-
ing for. The merchants have also
opened the eyes of the strikers by
refusing to extend credit and altho
Scarlet, Tresco, Schmitt and others
of the high-ups in the Work the
Workers" have made all kinds of
promises of assistance from eastern
points, not a cent has been disclosed
and some of the men and their fam
lilies are getting somewhat hungry,
and tired of we'll fed leaders. A
big hulabaloo was raised when the
man Alar was shot and the widow
was promised loads of assistance by
Scarlet and his bunch of grafters.
The most they did was to pass the
hat among some 1000 who had
gathered and the munifcient sum
of $6S and some cents was the re-
suit. Some in the crowd made the
assertion that there was much more
in the hat but this is all the widow
received. The history of the out
fit leads one to wonder how they
let loose of the sos. Many men
coerced out of their jobs are
leaving the range for other fields
rather than wait for the final blow
up of the agitation plainly begun
to enrich few. Just as soon as
the initiation fees and dues stop
coming in, Scarlet and Tresco will
vanish. An attempt is being made
to get the dock workers interested
and stop work but these workers
are not particularly strong for a
tie-up.

grown in Australia, New Zealand,
South America and South Africa

us may be seen from the fact that
we don't produce normally more

We have been importing great

And it means that if you succeed
