GIVES SECRET OF SUCCESS
George w. Perkins Method Is to Live
Every Day as II II Were to Be
the Only One.

MY own method has been TO live
every day as though II was the only
day had 10 live, and TO crowd every
thing possible into that day. Pay no
attention TO the clock or what you
are paid, but work and live for all
that is IN it-just as You play foot
ball-and everything else Will take
care OF itself" said George W. Per
kins.
The head of the table is the place
where there is most room. II i the
tree that grows and grows until II
overtops the others that gets the most
air and sunshine. The thing for the
young man TO do is TO strive with all
the energy he possesses TO excel In
actual ability.
Pull is not necessary. Nor should
a young man bother too much about
his wages. l never asked an increase
in my life. You can command sooner
or later what you are entitled to-af
you pre-eminently deserve IT,
But you have got to be uitra-profi-
cient In some particular thing. You
must stand out and do IL better than
the fellows around you whether you
are an office boy, a stenographer or an
executive. You must use your head
as well as your hands. Don't be afraid
to do extra work lest II interfere with
your theater going. / don't 60 10 the
theater half a dozen times during the
winter. not that I don't like 1t, but
there are other things more worth do
ing."-Leslie's Weekly.

however. only clean. sound fruit
should be used and 1t should be well
ripened. but not overripe. The grapes
should first be crushed and pressed In
an ordinary cider mill or by hand II
no mill is available.
Red Juice.-For red Juice, the
crushed grapes are heated to about
200 degrees Fahrenheit before the Juice
Is separated from the pulp and then
strained through a clean cloth or drip
bag without pressure. Thereafter. the
process is the same us for Heht-colored
Juice.
