Success,

SucceSa.
Success that Is worth anything must
be earned, must be waited patiently
for before It Is won. Our foremost
men In every department Of civil. OF
professional, Of commercial, Of literary
life are gray-haired men. True, there
are many promising men and women
in every walk in life who are young
but they are not yet ripe, and cannot
be till years have passed over them.
Through the years they must work on
steadily, persistently, constantly, un-
der scorching suns. during long and
weary days, along dusty and crowded
thoroughfares. till the knowledge they
have gathered and the experiences
they have gone through have time to
pass into wisdom.
As there is class Of soil-tillers who
realize handsomely from the sale Of
early vegetables and fruits. SO there
are those who in different ways succeed
in making a "hit" and reaping quick
pecuniary returns. But. early flowers,
early vegetables, early fruits are hot
house growths, and spring from rich
and highly stimulated soils. The great
crops of grain which feed the world
are months in growing and maturing.
