there is truth in 1t. A good many do not
"stick" who ought to do so. They
ought, in the first place, to cultivate
the habit of sticking. Some day jobs
may not be so common. and it will sur

find that they have not learned enough
about any one trade to make them val
liable to any employer. The young man
who Is doing one thing today and an
other the day after tomorrow is over

in a career, and he Is breeding in him
self the spirit of dissatisfaction which
will make it hard for him to be happy
IN all the years to come. Nothing can

couraged: but the worker ought to he
