THE MOST SUCCESSFUL

Don't think you are a failure
because you are not doing big
things in great city; because
your name is not in the great
newspaper; because you are not
piling up wealth. If you are do
ing your level best where you
are; if you are honest, industri-
Gus, square; if you are making
each day an advance upon the
previous one; if you are cheer
full under difficulties, helpful and
inspiring to everybody about you
if you are taking every oppor-
tunity to improve yourself, to
make yourself larger and
ISobler man, you are infinitely
more successful than greedy,
hard, selfish millionaire.

VANILLA OBTAINED FROM
WILD PIMENTO LEAVES.

According to experiments recently
performed in London. the island of
Jamaica may become a new source of
supply for vanilla havoring extract.
1t has been found that the leaves of
the wild pimento tree which grows
on the island yield high percentage
of eugenol, from which vanillin, or
crude vanilla. may be obtained, dec
lares an article in the November Pop
ular Mechanics Magazine The dis
covery is valuable economically as
well as commercially, inasmuch as
iso-eugenol, the halfway product be-
tween eugenol and vanillin, may be
made by merely fermenting the pi-
mento leaves.
