REFLECTIONS ON THE ONE-TALENT-MAN" OPPORTUNITY "(Tnti one he nvt ftvf tutntta, to annthrr two and to another on; to tvirry man ac cord tug to hit several ability," t i Into every great city flows a turbulent river. It is the rush of the Country's young maniioood, - lie flower of the Nation into the vortex of strife and contention. The prHe awl hope of many a home is borne along by the pitiless current. One by one they emerge: a famous stitesrnan, a master of a fleet nf merchant men; the head of a great industrial enterprise; a thrifty tradesman; a successful banker. The talents that were theirs they multiplied a thousand fold. Theirs are the names that men glorify. lieside him who rose many perished. The inexor able law demands progress; the only alternative is re trogression; there is no middle grouud life knows no passive state. The ending of growth is the beginning of decay. A masi-ive structure of steel and stone stretches its topmost story into the dizzy heights. In the great city are scores of them. Above the entrance, inelliv, ibly, always a a message is written. Thousands pass unheeding by. An ill-clad youth passed and read; to him the message was plain O I'.PO KTUNITY, Tie entered. Here wat the beginning of a great career. At the noontide of an eventful life he stood at ths entrance again. Over the doorway was "another inscription HIS NAME. He had multiplied the' tal ents that had been given into his keeping he had en tered imohis reward. Almost every magnificent structure that ornaments the great city marks the triumphant chapter of a sue cesslul business career. They are monuments to con stant endeavor, steadiness of purpose, integrity and industry. None rises to the memory of the One-Talent-Man. Throughout every great city, in every busy mart, at the portal of every great business house, is written "Opportunity." The place is seeking the young man as diligently as the young man is seeking the posi tion. It is open to him who, with preparation, has armed himself for commercial strife. To the self opinionated young man, whose stock in trade is pride and conceit, it is closed. The great city calls to the villages and country places. It invites the rich red blood that brings health and vigor to congested population. The farmer boy hears the'call from afar. Let no hand restrain him. No hand can turn the river from its course. When the call comes let him have on the armor of prepara tion. Thus fortified he will not live his life in search of "OPPORTUNITY." To be continued. NOTE. The country population contrib- utes its full share of statesmen, soldiers, pro fessional and business men who rise to em inence. It is a long step fiom the farm to the office desk and many a lad falls in attempting it. Let himjmake the passage gradually and more safely. Below is offeredjihe opportunity of coming in personal contact with business methods of becoming, byj the investment of a few dollars a part of a business concern. This opportunity doesn't present itself every day. It may never have come to you before. Perhaps your boy's future is giving you con cern. A little practical schooling takes the place of a wagon load of books. Give the pro position below a moment's sober thought. E. W. Mellien & Co., is a corporation, organized for the purpose of dealing in all merchandise needed in the complete equipment of a home. The stockholders elect three directors and they conduct the business through a manager selected by them. Par value of the stock Is $10 per share and there are 600 shares unsold, which are now placed on the open market. The public was not asked to take this stock at the beginning of the enterprise. It Is offered now after the business Is established and after the stock Is on an actual earning basis of 10 per cent. January 1st, next, a statement will be prepared from the books of the corpora tion for the benefit of all stockholders, and this will show the stock to have an earning capacity at that time GREATER THAN 10 PER CENT. We venture this prediction and you will see the fact bear out the prediction. One year from January 1st, next, every share of the capital stock of E. W. MELLIEN A CO., now worth $10.00, will be worth $20.00, and will have an earning capacity of 20 per cent. If you have not already guessed it we will later show you the ob ject in distributing this stock Instead of placing it in the hands of a , few Individuals. We are sellng agents for ths stock and Invite your inquiry regarding it either in person or by letter. Call on or address EASTHAM, SMITH & CO. Over The Bank of Oregon City
