Lincoln waa »elf-taught Instead of ! waitlr.r for someone to pound knowledge Into him, he would walk miles to secure ' a book that he mtffht pursue the quest of knowlrd<e which was a supreme passion with him throughout his life. Lincoln Instinctively knew that knowl edge waa the key that unlocks the door to fame and fortune, or any success that man desires. He went directly after knowledge to prepare himself so that when his chance came he would be ready. You may look handsomer than Lincoln; vou may nave more native strength than Lincoln; you may have an intellect that could easily be developed: but If you have not the burning desire to develop yourself, you are certain to a*lek in the mud-sock class. Knowledge Is distinctly a matter of In clination. if you do not secure knowledge you are lust as certain to suffer for your lack of development In a mental way as you would certainly deteriorate physically If >ou laid In bed all the time and would neglect to develop your muscles. I^axl- neas leads to pain and failure If you In sist on being lasv, the law of compensa tion will force you to pay compound In terest for your Idleness. You will be whipped and scourged and made to do the meanest work of the world. The hard laws of necessity ere sure to overtake you. You must eat and people will Insist that you earn what you eat. The whip of necessity will beat your bleeding back and the sharp tongue of a heartless world * 111 tear to shreds your sensibilities. When you are stretched on the cross of neces sity, people of this world will crown you with thorns and drive Into your flesh, nails expressing their scorn. Lincoln knew that the world will never forgive failure. Logically he equipped himself to succeed and he did succeed. You. too, can succeed, but you must pre pare yourself for the battle of life. The greatest asset in life is a strong character and the ability to express your self If you are dumb aa a dog you win receive the reward of a <h<, the crumbs from some rich man’s table, who under stands the way to express himself. The great maaa of men have made no effort to develop themselves. Nearly al) are capable of infinite development, but they do not realise It. They are paralysed by the thought that they are inferior when In reality the only difference be- 1 tween a successful man and themselves Is development. i They could eaally grow If they would get busy and develop themselves as Lin coln and other great men have done. You do not have to be a super-man or a giant of Intellect, but you do have to be just a little better than the average to be selected to occupy a seat of honor and ease where you will work less and get more. If you simply develop the stiff back of a jack-ass and the phvulcnl strength of a mule you will naturally be paid for brute strength and nothing mote, because that Is all your equipment will enable you to render In doing the work of the world. Lincoln wisely learned to talk convlnc- "V. ar* offerinc Dr. Frederick Houk !«**, course on "Mastery of Speech," which will quickly develop your ability to ««press yourself effectively. The rood talker, you have noticed, ia the fellow who gate In the lead every time. Dr. Frederick Houk Law, of Oxford Academy, Amherst Collage. and Brown- In« University, holding the dearies of A. B, A. M, and Fh. D-, has prepared a course entitled "Mastery of Speech." that la not only simple but exceedingly Inter esting By following the instructions he gives.

He doesn't ask whether he In all his time In hla present position has made a single suggestion of value to his employer. Ah, no I He has the faculty of avoid Ing dubious obligations, especially those that would be likely to Impose upon him an additional stroke of work, or Interfere with bis plans for pleasure among his night associates. Such a man Is not qualified for straight thinking or straight going. He Is not capable of handling things wltb Intelligence and In the depths uf bls heart he knows It. He la a failure, and for no other reason In the world than h!a own per- verseness In moving in the old circle— wandering about the best part of bls life In the wllderneas.

The carrier pigeon flies straight to bls destination; the horse goes un- guided glirougb the darkest night to hla stable. A man may have genius or merely ordinary talent, but If he cannot move straight a tie ad, think clearly and keep bls mind upon hla work, he is plodding around and around, arriving at tbe end of the year at about the same spot from which he started, still befuddled, and decidedly less courageous. Kuch a man, and there are thousands of them, la not built for success. He la apt to take no reckoning of ids prog ress until some one beside biin who has been thinking effectively In straight lines moves up to where opportunity Is gre-ter nnd reward la richer. This rude awuXenlng causes tint a temporary shock to his numb sensibili ties, lasting perhaps a day or two, but producing In him no material change for tbe better. If any serloua doubt aa to his ability should come to him nt such a time as thia. It Is Instantly banished as too burdensome, and he continues his aim less trot In the old circle. He doesn't ask himself whether he Is dependable, whether he thinks con structively or whether he thinks at all.

Uncommon Sense JOHN BLAKE Did He Make a Hit? DON’T BE SCARED T^'EAIt has done more harm In the world than drunkenness—which is saying a good deal. The sooner you eliminate fear from your make-up, the sooner you will get where you are trying to go. The man who lias the best chance In the world la the man who Is afraid to be Beared—who has learned to fear fear. Tbe fear that saps a man’s purpose and leaves him trembling and helpless on the threshold of life has many forms. There is the fear of the rich and powerful—too common, even in thia day when the rich and powerful can do little harm to their fellows. There Is the fear of povertv—a real fear, and one which Is harder to shake off than all tbe others. There Is the fear of what other poo pie will say. the fear of being ridi culed—the commonest and perhaps the mo it mischievous form. Get them all out of your system. ltcmenitMT that the rich and the powerful, of whose greatr.eas you stand In awe. are only human beings, and Hint they have little reason for wanting to Injure you, even If It were possible. Get rid of the fear of poverty by thrift and frugality, which will enable you If neceasary to live on little, and give you a reserve to tide you over If the loss of a Job temporarily strands you on the beach. As to the fear of ridicule, forget It altogether. The opinion of other peo ple Is more negligible than you sup pose. And those who would ridicule you because you are working hard and May — "Really, I don't feel like walking. My feet bother me a good deal.” Jack—“Why, you must be ¡nervous!” May—"Nervous!

Joy In Forgiveness. Many persons ent themselves off from one of the highest and greatest Joys in life—the Joy of magnanimous ly forgiving an enemy.—Exchange. I with a purpose are moved more by Jealousy than any other motive. As soon as you discover that other people can be afraid of you. you will cease to be afraid of them. Then your fears gradually will subside. Fear Is Instinctive In most of tie. It Is one of the results of the desire for self-preservation that Is as old as the race. But It Is always a handicap. The thing that you should be most afraid of Is fear—the fear that makes you a weak paltry creature, with your facul ties paralyzed, and all the elements of progress that are In you terrified Into Inaction.
