Financial Reverses
Plain and Crd'nury Are Rules for Success
People who have a wide acquaintance remark on
how frequently they run across persons who tell about
their troubles in money matters, and who were once well
off in a financial way, but have lost much or all of their
money. It is a most distressing experience for people to
have acquired the habit of spending freely, and then have
to come down to n meager income. The business world
has many uncertainties, and there are plenty of folks who
once had what seemed a fairly secure income from some
established concern. Then changes came about or new
competition made itself felt, as a result of which their
business had to give up. Many put their money into hope
ful investments that proved worthless. It is amazing how
some little change in a business situation will work the
mischief with some concerns that once seemed prosperous.
Many ; concerns have gone to pieces because of some
change in the management. The former heads of the
business could keep it going as long as they stayed with
it, but when they went, it proved that those who took
their places lacked something that the former adminis
tration had. Yet ambitious people need not be discour
aged by these reverses that bring so much regret and in
convenience. Commonly these losses are the results of
some failure to apply the plain ordinary principles of suc
cess. Hard luck may account for some failures, but in the
majority of cases there has been some lack of perception
or experience or energy that should have been seen long
bfore- Many concerns have lost out just because they
adopted a passive attitude, and did not push for public
attention by advertising. If one makes good articles or
sells good goods, and has a good location, success should
be possible if people follow the plain rules thereof.
The Achievement of Automobiles
1M1I
Communities and People Brought Closer Together
Such wonderful things are being done all the time by
automobiles that we scarcely realize the marvel of it.
Imagine what the people of 25 or 30 years ago would
have said if they could have seen this modern wonder,
and how it annihilates distance and binds the country to
gether and unites country and city. Some days ago, two
officers of the American Automobile association drove a
car from Washington, D. C, to Oakland, Calif., in four
days and 21 hours and 30 minutes. A few years ago this
would have been considered an astonishing performance.
Yet we pass it over as just one item in the clay's news, to
be succeeded by something just as remarkable. The whole
conception of an automobile would have seemed astonish
ing not so many years ago. It was formerly thought that
any kind of machine needed a firm base on which to op
erate successfully, that if it was bumped and bounced
around, such treatment, would shake its parts loose, that
it would soon go to pieces. Railroad locomotives obtained
their firm base by being operated on a track leveled down
to the utmost precision. Yet the automobile is driven at
high rates of speed over roads full of holes and hollows
and bumps and rocks, and this delicate mechanism is
shaken as a dog shake" a rat. And yet with all its delic
acy, it i3 built with such firmness and precision, that it
stands this terrific jolting for tens or hundreds of thou
sands of miles, and operates with the marvelous smooth
ness that thrills and satisfies our fussy age. Today the
automobile is revolutionizing society. It is bringing com
munities and people closely together, ending isolation,
creating happiness and good nature. It promotes some
evils, of course, but on the whole it is a great scientific
marvel doing the daily work of mankind everywhere.

It looks as if a child would learn at a very early age
trjat it is folly to take sides in a quarrel between others.
He hears his mama demand better treatment at the hands
of his father- She may become so angry that she will
liken herself to a horse. In this case she will say she has
been a faithful animal all these years, but that at last she
has balked. Naturally the child sympathizes with her.
He takes her side against his papa and refuses to speak to
the horrid man who has mistreated his mama. The little
one may even carry it so far as to refuse a nickel offered
by dad, and what is his reward? The very next day he
sees his mama kiss th? husband and father she has de
nounced, and the youngster realizes that he has taken
her side and possibly made a bitter enemy, all for nothing.

On tlio occasion nf a special ser
vice at a village church, (lie vicar
of a large London parish was per
suaded to preach. The congrega
tion was naturally an agricultural
one.
After the service (lie clergyman
from London stopped to Npeak to
a very old shepherd In the church
yard, and asked him how many
sheep he had in his flock.
"Three hundred, stir," replied
the old man, proudly.
"That's nothing." retorted the
other. "My flock is over five
thousand strong."
"My word!" gasped tho old
shepherd, his eyes dilating at the
thought "You must 'ave 'ad a

"Now, what am I to do with a

In mock despair.
"Take her to the lain of Man,"
promptly advised the friend to
