How Did He Make Itq

, ISN'T 1t true that you base a
4 mans success from the stand
point of the money he is able
to accumulate?
1t does not matter so much to
you how he made his money.
That he has it is the big thing
with you.
TO you it has been a successful
game-this making of money.
So you don't give much credit
to a man for success other than
that of accumulating wealth.
Yet the man who has little in
savings and securities may be
more Of success in his line than
you have been in yours.
His undertakings may not per-

He may get more pleasure out

You may think of profits, while
he thinks of the benefit of his
endeavor to others.
His conscience is clear, and
none can say that he has been
dishonest or inhuman In his ef.

He may know that some of
your transactions have been near

Perhaps he would not change
