Poor Boys Who j
Became Great
By Frederick Houk Law
P. T. Barnuni, the Storekeiji-
er's Son, the Great Showna i.
Every boy and girl who g<><^
to see the great circus that is
still associated with the nam"
of Barnum lias at heart at I. >t
some respect for the man \\ li
established that amazing tin i
tainment. Many of the i
people remember the cinl.v-
haired, fat happy-faced ligttiv
of the great showman, the man
who said openly that the Amer-
ican people like to be humbug-
ged, and who set about to hum-
bug them to their heaH'i" e in-
tent, and to delight them as
well. P. T. Barnum himself
was once only a small boy, mid
a pjor boy at that, linding most
of his entertainment in his
father's little country hotel and
store in Connecticut.
Barnum's "Autobigraphy" is
a frank story of his life, hut ;t
is a happy story. It tells how
the storekeeper's l)oy rose little
by little until he became a na-
tional figure. Anyone who wi'l
read the bo>k will enjoy it be-
yond measure.
Like so many other men who
gained success, Barrutni begin
with a series of failures. For
him, as for- others w^hp 4*f<|ume
great, failure was oi^y a whip
that drove him on to try again,
and to try harder than before.
He first tried to imitate .his
father and t.< become n store-
keeper, but he failed dismally
'and lost money instead of mak-
ing it. Then he -tried manag-
ing a newspaper, but he was
unfortunate enough to make
enemies who were so powerful
that they put him in jail. Ho
gave up the newspaper busi-
ness and went to New York.
There he exhibited a negro wo-
man, said to be about 1(H) years
I old, and to have been George
Washington's nurse. That one
I exhibit of the wrinkled old ne-
i gres8, who was really only
about 70, was the beginning of
the great circus. He enlarged
his show, traveled about the
United States, awoke great pop-
ular interest in a wonderful
dwarf called "General T«m
Thumb," and gained immense
sympathy by bringing the
beautiful Scandinavian singer,
Jenny Lind, to America. In
spite of all his genius lie failed
once more its business, but only (
J,o rise again stronger than ev-
l er.
Old people still tell of Barn-; retaries.

"The Greatest Show on Earth."'
Of all American showmen he
brought most joy to the hearts
of boys and girls—and of older
people as well. He followed
the good old rule of "Laugh and
Grow Fat," and he lived until
the ripe age of 81.

l1 rom all parts oi the country come reports of ni'eat activity
in towns and villages in die matter of public improvement. Noth-
ing could lie more fncoiiraging providing the problem is sensi-
bly attacked, hut if your villages begin to run wild and act with-
out a proper perspective of (inanee then many of them are brew-
ing serious trouble. Taxation is 011 the jump almost every-
wliere. I he amount, of taxes now paid by the American people
is larger than the whole foreign trade of the United States both
incoming. The sum total of taxation is four times as great as
ihe American prolit on all foreign trade.
In Germany is heard the cry that laxation has brought utter
4"tiin to the people. We hear the echo from France, and also
iroin England. Let us not forget that the law of economics is
not national. It is universal. America cannot escape the effect
of exchange taxation any more than can Great Britain or the
benighted Cliocktongs of I'assamaquaddy.
1 1 he business of the world today needs more capital than ever.
1 lie trouble is the man on the street does not grasp the first rules
of national business building.
1 With restricted capital business cannot expand. It reqnires
moro money to harvest and market a hundred acre crop than it
does a ten acre crop and if American industry is to expand and
■Vnces be kept within the normal, liquid capital and legitimate
credit must be increased. We cannot have our cake and cat it
If the money of the ration is Rpent because of a sudden craze for
improvements something else will have to go by the board.
Steering Business Ships to Success
Prod P. Mann ia a dry goods merchant in Devil's Lake North
Dakota. He sells a half million dollars' worth of goods every
year in a town of five thousand population. He has built his
business from nothing. His capital has been intelligence He
stands today an inspiration for any small town merchant who
socks to build a paying business on a sound foundation.
There are thousands of merchants who flop along without anv
definite aim except an instinctive desire to accomplish ThS
are the merchandising derelicts. The ship that reaches nort^
time to win the cargo is one that is steered with a definite nur
pose and along a coui* thoroughly charted. P
Mr. Mann frankly says his success is one of two thim™
