Statistic prove that out of 100 men
who engage in mercantile pursuit, 90
fall short of success. A to w by so large
a percentage are left behind in the race,
a gT'.-at variety of opinion prevail. This
is hown by the answer of tne following
distinguished men, who are on the top
rounds of the ladder of fame and fortune
When asked why so many failure in
commercial pursuits take place, their
answer were as follows:
John D. Rockfeller, the Standard oil
king:
"Lack of business training in the
home and public schools."
A. J. Carnegie, the iron and steel mag
nate: "The credit system ha much to do
with It."
P. D. Armour, the man who control
the meat rupply of the United States:
"Want of knowledge as to the valne
of a dollar is one of the chief causes."
Dr. Franklin Miles, the great special
ist in nerve, brain, and heart disorders,
whose Restorative Nervine, New Heart
Cure, and other remedies are used all
oveir America:
"Over anxiety in their pursuit ha
much to do with it. The competition is
so strong and the race so exciting that
the strain becomes too great and col
lapse follows. A large number of my
patient are business men under middle
age, who suffer from nerve disorders in
duced by mental strain. A the knowl
edge of my restorative remedies in
creases, the percentage of business fail
ure will surely decrease."
