As a rule, the beBt business men are those who commenced their mercantile career in a very subor dinate position, and, by steady application and attention to the duties that devolved upon them, worked their way upward into a place of prominence. A close in quiry into the careers of many business men reveals the fact that the most of them began business as poor boys, and, by energy, industry and economy, acquired wealth and influence. Instances are rare in which a young man has begun business at the top and has made a grand success of it. Such in stances sometimes occur, but not with great frequency. The quick est way in the world in which a young man can get rid of a fortune is to embark in a business of which he knows nothing and attempt to run it on a large scale. The education of most of the prominent business men began in small country stores, with which they remained until their growing ambition brought them into a field where they had larger and more splendid opportunities. We know there are thousands of young men who are disheartened and dis couraged at the humble position in life which they are filling at the' present time; but we sincerely believe there never was a better time for young men to rise in the world than exists now. There is always a demand for young men of the Tight stamp. It takes pluck, perseverance and persistence some times to gain the ends desired; but few really fail in finding recogni tion iu the business world who are reallyjworthy of it. As water will always find its level when left to its own control, so will a young man find his level in the business world. He cannot hope to reach a high position ex cept on his own merits, and if he has no ambition to attain anything beyond mediocrity, the world, as a rule, will estimate him at the value Hiiuh he places upon himself. -Ex. The above article is well written and we endorse all of itwith the exception of the statement that there never was. a bettor time for young men to rise in the business world. Depend upon it, in this day of great corporations and trusts, when money rules the world, the young man who rises to a great height in business will be a hustler, and no mistake.

Quartelet obtained some weight rec ords of note, but no reliance can be placed in them in the light of modem observation. He concluded from such statistics as he could get that a new born infant was, on the average, one twentieth the maximum weight in middle life; that during the first year after birth the increment of weight is about one-tenth of all that is added subsequently, and that between the fifteenth and twentieth years more is added to the weight than during any other flve-year period of life. How ever, Individual instances differ so widely that very little reliance can be placed in the results he obtained. That Quartelet's statistics of weight were incomplete and unsatisfactory is shown by the fact that he did not de tect the interesting la'w reeAntlv Mn. ognized, viz., that the weight increases slowly, or even diminishes, when the height is increasing very rapidly, but increases ranidlv when the hr.li.li. mains nearly stationary.
