BUSINESS SUCCESS.
The Houston Chronicle very
correctly contends that business
success depends upon the man
behind the business. Of course
there is such a tiling as rood for-
tune and ill-fortune. A combi-
nation of adverse circumstances
will wreck the best business
headed by the best business man
and a combination of favorable
circumstances will bring success
to a wildcat proposition headed
by a foolish and reckless man.
Nevertheless the value of Ihe
THE GREAT BIGNESS OF TEXAS.
Elbert Hubbard of the Philis-
tine has been to Texas. lie has
learned things. And he is tell-
ing them. They are surprising.
They astound. People from afar
read with eyes gradually opening
up to the bursting point. Does
he tell the truth? lie does. Does
he tell it all? lie does not; the
demand on him is too great. For
lie is talking Texas. And Texas
our Southern sister we all love.
We have no envy of her great-
ness which has never been half
character of the man as the big- told. Tennessee certainly has
gest asset of a business is shown
by the fact that the right sort of
a man is often able to change ill
luck to good luck and the wrong
sort of man frequently steers the
most prosperous concern into
disaster.
Character must be built up by
right thoughts words and deeds.
To gain the respect of a commu-
nity and the contidenceof associ-
ates superiors and subordinates
the sure recipe is 1o bo worthy
thereof. Everybody does not re-
alize the importance of little
things in character building.
Conscience is the great word. A
man must be particular to use
his sense of right in everything
he does in the minutest details
of his life and his business as
well as in its general plan lie
must be rigid and appear to be
right. None of us are perfect
but a man must not lie ashamed
to be known as a good man.
Young men should be sure of this
that they will come to be known
for what they are. Character
like murder will out.
Whether a man have the posi
tion of employe or is the head of
a business or of any department
therein whatever his station ho
should realize fully that next after
moral integrity he must not. only
be clean hearted but he must be
clear-headed lie must think..
The degree of attention bestowed
upon a man's work- is often the
measure of his success.
A common fault is to worry.
While a man must look before
and alter take as it were a
bird's eye view of his work' the
main rule of daily toil is without
haste and without stopping to do
with all one's strength one thing
at a time and then take up the
next thing that is to be done.
Much stress is laid by experi
enced business men on the virtue
of being practical. Theory is
Uso of value for without it there
will be no progress. Employes
should ho cautioned however not
to bo over forward with sugges-
tions which their employers are
idvised not to bo too conserva
tive but to invite ideas from fa-
vorable employes.
What every worker of every
ink should daily and hourly con
sider is duty. It in his thinking
i man emphasizes the word
'ought" he will greatly increase
lis effectiveness. This is tlje
secret of steadiness in applica-
tion which is nine points of suc
cess.-- ."sua n e unknown.
Over Thir'.y-Fivc Years.
In 17'J t ho re was a great deal
of diarrhoea dysentery and chol-
la infantum. It was at this
time 1 hot Chamberlain's ( ohc
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
was tirst brought into use. It
proved more successful than any
other remedy or treatment and
las for thirty-five years main
tained that record. From a small
beginning its sale and use has
wtondod to every part of the
United States and to many for
eign countries. Nine druggists
out of ten will recommend it
when their opinion is asked al-
though they have other medicines
that pay them a greater profit.

gerous cases ror sale oy s. v .

not the area but is so great with-
in herself that we can rejoice in
the extension of Texas' fame.
"Turn Texas loose." That's tho
thing. And this is the way El-
bert Hubbard turns her loose in
the Philistine:
Texas is the biggest State in
the Union don't talk back to me!
I know. The upper part of Pan-
handle Texas is nearer to Chica-
go than it is to Calveston. Texas
is as wide as the distance from
Chicago to Hoston or from St.
liouis to New York City. That
is to say that from Texarkana to
El Paso it is I iu) miles. Texas
has ;!)00(H)0 folks 10000000
cattle ll'000000 sheep and II.OOO-
000 horses. One horse you see
for every man woman and child
in the State. People who have
not seen the Southwest during
the past live years cannot by any
description realize its progress.
What is known as the "Santa Fe
Country" can feed the world.
Six years ago you could buy in
Texas 1000 sheep for $1000; now
1000 sheep will cost you !?H0OO.
The real crop in Texas however
is not wool but. cotton. The cot-
Ion crop in Texas for the year
J Slot i was worth over Si'OO.ooO.OOO
in colli cash. They raise a bale
of cotton to the acre mid a bale
of cotton is worth $ii0.
'.Texas has the second most im-
portant shipping port in Ameri-
ca and if things continue going
as they have for the past live
years in ten years more the
shipments from (ialveston will
exceed in value the combined ex-
ports of I Sosloti and New York".

My Utile boy four ye.us old

We had two physicians; both-oP
