iughis portion. But in all this great
bulk of advice there is. singularly
enough, little one mention at all of the
greatest element to be found in any life.
business or otherwise—the element of

Providence itself.

When a young man starts out' 1n busi-
ness he has a stout heart. a little capl-
1111, good wishes and the world before
him. The other possessions that belong
to him, but which he does not always
claim, are honesty. industry and real
worth. With these three factors united
to those that he had before. his chances
for success are a thousand fold greater.

To be more explicit. Suppose ayonng
man starts out in business for himself.
Everybody wants to give him a helping
hand. No one offers him charity, but
if he is in trade people drop in to see
him. willing to leave their dollars with
him in return for something good. and
business men smile upon him more in-
dulgently at first, and offer him, more
privileges than they would accord those
longer in business.

This is Providence! The Lord plans
matters in such a way that those who
walk uprightly find all the “plums" 0'
the earth. and those who walk the wrong
path pick up the stones and thorns. 0c-
cassionally something good will appear
to fall to the lot of those who are dis-
honest. but mark my words!——the words
of a man who has fought the World and
walked in the‘ world the best part of a
century—this success is as ephemeral as
the brightness of the spring leaves. or
the coldness of the snowball. All will
fade away before another season has vis-
ited it!

It iscommouly supposed that to make

money in this world 11 man must be one '

of two things. Either he must be a go
nine or a dishonest man. He must make
his money by sparkling brilli; 1ncy that
few can imitate. or he must steal it so
slyly that none can see him.

An examination of the "re 1t fortunes
that have been 111111111 will show this to
be absolutely {111110. Was the first Roth-
schild to carve 1111-1 namc upon the world

money in his laboratory or flush it forth
by electricity or 11111110 tho wheels of
newly dimovered patents to grind it
out?

No! He was shard. Htotldy worker. A
man to whom after you had intrusted
3100. you would go again with another
hundred. And again! And again! He
kept his friends in finnnr 12.1111 gme

if by hard study he 111m own-11 and
planned ways for investing that money
so that his percentage 113 caretaker was

for him. and the Whole World. too.

to get into Foster's debt to theextent of
about .3. 000. One day Brice came to
Foster and told him the law business

to a position where he might earn a liv-

my. ' .

1 “But you'll never set your $2,000,”
said Brice. "You might as well ask me
to make a star as to make that 82,000
with my. law practice."

’ “I'll tell you what I'll do." said For

ter. ter“l am all tangled up with Hocking
Valley on the New York Stock Ex-
change. and I want somebody to go
there and look after things. I'll send
you if you’ll go. "

I Brice jumped at the chance. Foster
gave him 3000 and a lot ‘of directions,
and impressed upon him solemnly the ne-
cessity of doing just what he was told.
Now. Brice will not do what he is told,
and never would. If Brice had been a
waiter he would have taken‘your order
and then brought you anything he liked.
He would have used his judgment.
That's what he did with Foster‘s Hock-
ing Valley deal. but he made 310.000
profit. whereas if he had done as Foster
told him he would have lost 1111. Foster
was delighted. and like the good old
man in the story book. he gave the
young hero 820.000. Then Brice went
back to Wall street and plunged.

Brlce‘s greatest play was building
the Nickel Plate. He put in every dol-
lar he could get. and from any source.
Then camea time. too. when. to save
himself from utter ruin. if not some-
thing worse, he had to sell. He went to
Vanderbilt. whose road the Nickel Plate
paralleled. Vanderbilt wouldn't buy
the Nickel Plate. He said he could of.
ford to wait the first mortgage fore«
closure and buy it from 11 sheriff.

“If you don't buy it, Jay Gould
will," said Brice.

l “ 'Oh. no. he won't.‘ said Vander-

bilt. °

“Brice then went to Gould. He knew
that he didn‘t want the Nickel Plate.

' but he had 11 beautiful scheme to pro-

He knew Vanderbilt would buy
the road before he would allow (lould to
get it. Here come Brice's strategy.
He told Gould that if he Would sit silent
and not contradict. neithcr affirm nor
deny. any nowepaper articles to the ef-
fect that ho was going to buy the Nickel
Plato. and after his clarnlike silence had
continued fora week. if 1111 would then
ride slowly over the Nickel Plate in an
observation car. Vanderbilt would buy

he was a jocose speculutor. and it struck
him that the whole thing Would be a

The doctor’s disappointment was keen.

at the simplicity of the solution of the
matter. The glowing insects had been
taken in by the lively little fish as they
struggled upon the surface of the water.
