Anxiety and watchfulness for success; avidity to seize every promising •opening, readiness to•relin- quish what is•already gained for sume- thing apparently more inviting, is :nior-e- often--a.11y�-way}than-a =highwa The'energy expended in this' canner will ,pay a man a hundredfold more interest if directed to becoming pros, ficient in his daily duties, in mastering; the difficulties of his calling, in. learn- ing the science of his occupation•; and 'studying its necessities. He should -study—, lyeina brit out of, working hours, when the pen, the` tool, or the instrument is laid down, and his, daily duties ars ended, It : is this -which will enable future days' duties, to be performed • more, easily 'and more efficiently. In fact every jot of know - ours o at y lahor is capital that will bear ample interest in the way of advancement, and so sure is this that, if such studies are diligently and intelligently pursued, the present will be the all -absorbing topic and the future may be left -out of mitid' with almost perfect assurance that it .will be well able to take care of itself. There are .sbtnetimes circum- stances which may interrupt a success- ful, and worthy career; .rut in such a case it is only necessary to begin '.•over again, undiscouraged and c:'ith in- creased etermination -to succeed. , lead to rapid' progress., All occupe-• tions have their ;periods of activity. and" dullness ; the brisk business of to -day may betbe.dull one of to=tnor row. The rapid rise of othets ill any particular ' pursuit is no criterion, because business is something; 'like -poetry, it is not. so much the'subject as the manner in.whicli • 'it is treated that determines its quality.Be es pecially careful not to over estitnate your own abilities.

Rui3ERTs, • Secretary. fleet *toe, I, 4STIO Treastirefa by One of the greatest causes of. failure to- progress in business is a dislike to strenuous ,exertion, especially .when manual labor is entaileel: Too_)nl spy young men get the idea that l'eoause they are smart they ought to be:a,hle to live by their wits,' and they sliift about from pillar ted post in, any occu- pation. that does• not, iinpose what is commonly termed ,manual lahgr. This i.ideed is •a sad mistake, desultory or itinerant occupations are laborious ,to the.:bod-r--a-nd---from theirs vicissitudes and uncertainty very exhausaing to the'tniml. All men cannot, in the very nature. of things, learn of foll000- trade,.but those who are adze. e • to do so will find the pursuit less o.nerqus and • tore remunerative than 'that of entering some, other pursuit because of a dislike to tnanual labor. If an op- erative' becomes a skilful workman, he is u success even though he does not attain riches, and 'if she permits; this latter fact to make 'hinr. discontented, it isnot an evidence that his career has not been a success, but rather that he permits a morbid feeling on• that point to overshadow his success as a Workman. ' It, seems to be a human proclivity to wish that one's occupation had been something else, almost any= thing indeed but that whish it actually - is, 'and 'we often hear it said : " If t had tny.life,to pass overagaiu I would be a so and so." • We heard it remarked a. few days ago : "If my father had educated me until I was 18 I 'should have not re- quired to toil at the bene3h." The reply to this who so •well chosen .that. wee g eeit in full as follows : " That is. a Mistaken idea.
