The number Forty has figured much
IN law. The old law in England gave
a widow forty days undisturbed oc-
cupancy of her husbands estate after
his death, before any legal action
could be taken for other disposition OF
it. A stranger was entitled to remain
forty days in any parish before he
could be required to tell who he was
where he came from and whittier he

would become a permanent resident

Above all things keep a grip on youl
courage. Don't let loose assertions
poison the mind. Prove every position
that offers advancement and every
statement that offers you power and
preference before you put yourself at
their mercy. There are enough legiti,
mate things to keep you busy. Lei
the great schemes that usually end in
smoke die from neglect Hold fast
to things worth while even though
they do not offer anything to rave
about. In the end they will be seen
to provide the bread and butter which
the other scheme gave only in prom
Use. So keep a grip on yourself. Learn
to think and feel deeply and act what
you are. The world is tired of shallow
rawlings and wants the touch of the
