BRAINS MORE THAN CAPITAL
Ability Is More important as q
Foundation for Commercial Sue
cess Than Great Wealth.

Commercial and financial circles In
this and other cities, says the New
York Times, are full Of instances DEM
onstrating that ability Is a better and
safer foundation for fortune than
money, and though the latter Is con-
venient enough for use by the able
man In making what Is rather inaccu-
rately called his start, its lack entities

delays more than briefly his advance
ment toward the goal Of his aspira-
ton.
The young man with capital not &C
cumulated by himself may or may
not be a success In business, but his
money will not be the determining fac
tor In his upward course, If he does
proceed in that direction, while 1t is
about as likely as not to help him
move the other way, should he be
without the capacities required for
making money for himself. Nobody
with both body and brain we'll trained
can truly be called without capital,
nor need the condition of penniless-
ness trouble either himself or his
friends. A thousand paths are open
to him, and he will have pennies
a-plenty, If not exactly as soon as he
pleases, at least with no great delay.
