The door of achievement is never left open. The easiest thing to cultivate is sus- pioion. The "sharp" man generally outs his own augers. The best working formula to euooess le '•oonoentrated energy." The sunny side of your makeup best lights the road to success. Orders given aggressively are usually obeyed just that same way, You eau improve your own business by keeping out of other, people's Simple hard vlrork has made a garden out of a wilder. ess many a time. An ounce of directed enthusiasm ie worth a ton of oonstrained effort. System is like money -useful when you master it; ruinouss-when it masters you. Faitnre anticipated jolts hard the plank of opportunity aorose the stream of Busmen. When you see your employer obeatiug a customer, resign before he tries his hand on you. Dou't forget how vast is ',the number of subjects ou which you are highly qualified to keep silent. Its possible to worry so ranch about what yon ought to do that you never find time to do what you might.-War- wiok James Pfioe, in the Bookkeeper. "THE FOREIGNER."

Make Each Animal Worth 25% Over its Cost On % of a Cent a Day Nobody ever heard of "stock food" curing the hots or colic, making hens lay in winter, increasing the yield of milk five pounds per cowa day, or restoring run-down animals to plumpness and vigor, When you feed stock food " to your cow, horse, swine or poultry, you are merely feeding them what you are growing on your own farm, "TEE Your animals do need not more feed, but something to helptheir EEL" ! bodies get all the good out of the feed you give them so they can et fat 2:02i .A.. and stay fat all year round; also to prevent disease, cure disease and keep Winner of them up to the best possible condition.

The man who finds it must depend On instruments alone. Unlike a whitewashed clothesline post Or like a walnut tree,_. It doesn't stand, and so it takes .A sage the pole to see. One who had never hunted poles Might think it was a' snap, ' For he has seen it since a boy Right there upon the map. He thinks that he would only need Some doughnuts in a bag To sally to its hiding place And with the pole play tag. But disappointment would be his If it should be his fate To find the pole, for thereabout Is only good, to skate. He wouldn't even find a hump, A hummock or a knoll. You bet old earth is pretty smooth Up there about the pole. No; it requires a lot of sense And instruments and skill To be the one to do the job And nobly fill the bill.

CARRIED ON DY MWRQDES4 A Huge Work Which Frees World From Dead Animals and Plants. Vow persons realize what an mense number and variety of mi- crobes there are, not only around us, in air and dust and water, but. also in us and on us and in and en every living thing, says a writer in The London Telegraph, The work, the huge system of chemical Change and the circulation of the elements, carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogezz and sulphur, which they carry on is incessant, varied and complex. Those five elements are the main and' essen- tial constituents of all living things. Supposing there were no microbes,. there would be no putrefaction, no breaking down of the dead bodies of animals and plants which were once alive into gas and substances solubla in water. By a series of steps in which differ - en kinds nos o f bacteria renis o r micrpbes v are successfully ere 1 sf 1 s y concerned they convert the proteids and the fats and sugars of dead plants and animals into less elaborate bodies, organic acids, aro- matic bodies and other compounds (Some highly poisonous to man), and at last, when what were highly com- plex combinations of hundreds of atoms in each molecule have been re- duced by the action of first one and then of another kind of microbe into comparatively simple substances of 20 or 30 atoms to the molecule, the "coup de grace" is given by certain special microbes, which convert these later compounds into ' still simpler combinations namely, ammonia and nitrates, which are fairly stable, so that the whole elaborate chemical fabric of living matter in a few hours or days after depth is broken down until it reaches the stable "mineral" condition, practically carbonate and nitrate of ammonia -smelling salts! If there were no microbes the earth would be cumbered with the dead bodies of past generations of animals and plants= -undecomposed. Very soon all the organic elements, all the car- bon and nitrogen, if not all the hy- drogen and oxygen, on the face of the earth would be fixed in these corpses and the green plants would perish from the whole world fol want of sustenance. For the green plants absolutely must have as their food the carbonic acid, ammonia and nitrates, into which the microbes re- solve all living things when dead. It is the green plants which from those simple compounds build up again the more complex molecules, the sugars, fats, albumens and pro- teids and provide for the nourishment and increase of the most complex of all -the living matter hidden in pro- toplasm. He Was Selfish. An Arabic anecdote illustrative of the subtleness of selfishness, which enablets'it to glide into the heart of a saint, is told of the holy Mohamme- dan Sakati. He said that for twenty years he had never ceased imploring divine pardon for having once exclaimed "Praise be to God!" On being asked the reason for such persistent pray- ing he answered. "A fire broke out in Bagdad, and a person came to me and told me that my shop had- escaped, on which I let- tered those ,words, and even to this moment I. repent of having said so, be- cause it showed that I wished better to myself than to others." Paper Money. Marco Polo (1254-1324) of Venice was the first person to announce to Europe the existence of paper money in China under the moguls. The fact has induced the belief that the mo- guls were the originators of it. But in the history of Ghengis Khan and of the mogul dynasty in China pub- lished in the year 1739 the author speaks of the suppression of the paper money which was in use under the dynasty of the Sung, who reigned in China previous to the moguls, and he also mentions a new species of notes which were substituted for the old in 1264. The Origin of Numbers. The use of visible signs to denote numbers can be traced to remote times, but our present decimal system in its complete form with the zero is of Indian or Hindoo origin. From the Hindoos it passed to the Arabians about 750 A.D. In Europe the com- plete system was devised from the Arabs in the twelfth century. The use of numerals in India oan be traced back to the 14lana Ghat ineeriptions, supposed to date from the early part of the third century B.C. The earliest known example of a date written ora the modern system is of 73d A.D. The "Cat-eries." .. Lady Marcus Beresford has for many years made% specialty of rear- ing and breeding cats, At Bishops- gate, Staines, Eng., she has what she hes called her "Cat-eries," where the cat live in a creeper -covered cottage, with a small kitchen for cooking the food, racks to hold the white enamel- led bowls and plates, a medicine - chest, and a room of archives, where documentary evidence of pedigrees and descriptions of all the cats and kittens in the establishment are filed. • Why Ho Wept. The extensive authority of parents under the Chinese laws is well known. A Chinaman of forty years, whose aged mother flogged him every day, shed tears in the company of one of his friends. "Why do yotr weep?" he was asked. "Alas, things tire not AS they used to bel" answered the devoted son. "'Thu poor woman'e arms grow fee, bier every day !" For Theft Own Calves. A couple of young men were out fishing one day and on returning were going past a farmhouse and felt hun• gry. They yelled to the farmer's daughters, "Girls, have you any but- termilk?" The reply was gently wafted bark to their ears, "Yes, but we keep it for out own calves." Tito boy:; calculated that they had ba,.,in�ss away, and they went.

CURED AT SEVENTY-FOUR Little Dldestera are a Great Help to Mr. John F. Becker The weight of years very often brings with it a still heavier burden, that of Indigestion or some form of Stomach Trouble. Then "Little Digesters" come to the rescue -if you give them a chance, as did Mr, Becker. Here is his letter tell- ing what they did for him: "New Dundee, Nov. 10, 1909. To THE COLEMAN MEDICINE Co. Dear Sirs, -- I was for a long time troubled with bloating after meals, and my tongue was always coated. Seeing the "Little Digesters" advertised I bought a box, and they took all that trouble away, but I thought one box would not be enough, so I sent to you for more. They are a great help to my body. Yours truly, OHN F. BECKER. Excuse my writing with pencil, being au old man of 74." "Little Digesters" aid the feeble stomach to digest the food perfectly. This means that you can enjoy every meal, and get the strength out of what you eat, if you take a "Little Digester" afterwards. 25e. at your druggists or by mail from Colenian Medicine Co., Toronto. 36 A -4• IW:ZitMiL :.i .;.•4.i Woed,rful Memories.
