once there was a successful young
attorney who worked for a corpora
ton. His ability was first-class and
the only thing that seemed to menace
his future career was his over-fond-
moss for strong drink.
He was sent to distant city on
important business, which he no
sooner concluded than he started iu
on wild spree that delayed his re-
turn for several days.
Fearing that his employers would
hear of the escapade and make
things unpleasant. for him, he de-
cided to make clean breast Of the
matter, 80 when the manager asked
where he had been so long, he owned
up that he had been trying to
drink up all the whiskey in sight"
The managers advice was. "Slow
up for safety; you are going too
fast"
In these days many automobile
drivers ought to slow up for safety.
The list Of daily disasters at the
railroad crossings should be warn
ing to every driver to watch his step
In that place Of danger.
You may have a natural expect
ancy Of many years Of life yet to
come. If SO, you are fortunate, and
surely ought not to risk, by any rash
act, the spelling Of such pleasant
prospects.
There are drivers who do not como
to attention when they approach the
tracks that are to be crossed. They
go on thinking about things that
are mere trifles compared to the seri-
Gus question of safety of life and
limbs.
Only too often there Is a sudden.
horrible awakening to the fact that
the engine has gone dead" right on
the crossing just as train Is bear
ing down upon them.
Too late comes the realization that
day-dreaming Is out Of place at the
; grade crossing. Then the end comes
suddenly.
What matters now all the plans
, about future prosperity and success?
Thoughtlessness having taken the
| place where vigilance should have
been on guard, every plan and hope
and aspiration is suddenly terminal
ed, and nothing remains Of the life
that looked so promising but sad
memories In the minds Of afflicted
kindred and friends,
! Slow up for safety al tho crossing.
Make no effort to cross unless the
coast is clear. -,

To be successful in lne control Of
