THOROUGHNESS OE’ WORK
ESSENTIAL TO SUCCESS.
A California newspaper prints a
sermon in a recent issue that is
worth reading by all and ¿Specially
the young. Whether or not the article
ii original. It matters not, the truth
is there just the same. It is on the
subject of work-making, a habit of
doing things right:
"Habits are the links which we are
forging day by day in the chain of
character. It therefore behooves us
to see to it that the welds are made
carefully Not as slovenly
appren­
tices are wont to do, with the seams
left open, ready when the strain
comes, to snap asunder, but without
blemish, as the master mechanic
"Welds.
■'Carefulness as to detail, and pains­
taking thorougtfness in attending to
the commonplace affairs of life, are
commerdable traits in all walks, but
nowhere count for mor? than in the
forma:ior. of character, it may seem
a trivial matter to have your watch
set with railroad time, when
you
wish to travel, but it may make all
the difference c.’ catching your trgin
or losing it. Wh *n some one does you
a favor, do not wait too long before
passing it along to another, it may
seem to be a little thing to speak
kindly instead of crisply to your ac­
quaintances, but it puts you down in
their estiniatlan either as a ' soc­
iable fellow” or a "grouch.” Life, as
a rule, is made up of small affairs.
"One of the distinguishing marks
of the successful mechanic Is that
when he turns out a piece of work it

Inspected before It leaves his hand,
and when the chain is forg *d and fin­
ished. it is read)- for the supreme
test. But how many a man has left
home little ragged, unfinished weld
somewhere in the chain of his char­
acter. and when the real test of life
comes it rips open like a rope of

C.We occupy two floors 65 by too feet, havç a ÿao.ooo equipment,
employ a large faculty, give individual instruction, receive more calls
for office help than we can meet. Our school admittedly leads all
others in quality of instruction. It pays to attend such an institution.
The Los Angeles Express has dis­
covered that for $515,00U a Chicago
letter-carrier named David J. Block
will turn your body into pure gold,
That price Is fixed on the assump-
tion that you weigh 165 pounds. If
you weigh more it will cost you more,
if you weigh less the proportionate
saving is yonrs. I He professes to I
achieve this golden result by feeding
the metal into the body "by mean«"
of a low electrical current of three
amperes.” If you are a devotee of t
Mr. Bryan's cult, you can be done In
pure silver for $200,000. This pro­
portion is by no means 16 to 1.
There are few of us so attached to
the single standard as to be willing
in the present condition of business
to pay out $515,000 to be turned into
gold.
A 165-pound man so trans­
formed, even if he disposed of him­
self under the most favorable cir­
cumstances, would yield in the melt­
ing pot but little over $50,000. And
he, would constantly have to watch
that the wife of his bosom didn't saw
off an arm or a leg wherewith to buy
an opera cloak or a direetoire gown.
That Chicago letter carrier is an en­
emy of man.
However, he professes to be able
to achieve like results in copper,
bronze and other metals.
