Every Youth Should Work for College Training. Philadelphia Public Ledger. Man is triune, and the highest ideal of a complete nun or wo. man is a healthy body, a strong clear mind and a pure character. The absence of either makes lift; a failure and a pain. An ideal ed ucation, then, includes physical, mental and moral development. The omission of either is a great weakness in any scheme of edu cation. Therefore, fortunate is the man who has an opportunity to work with his hands or body while he is training his constitution as a foundation, and weaklings must fall out- Mut with the inherited or acquired physical basis the stu dent who earns his living and ihe living of some dear one while he studies in his college course will outclass all competitors. The his tory of our great men and women, past and present, proves that statement. The boys and girls who paid their own way and learned td economize closely ajid to work hard are the most influential class in every community. Many a- rich man's son has been destroyed b> too much money in the days when he needed most to be taught to earn money and to take care o' himself. "It would be a great blessing tr the nation if every student was compelled lo earn all of his ex penses while in college or univer sity. We would become a nation of mighty men. A very rich man in Vermont informed me that he told his oldest son that ?if he (th: son} did not earn his own ex penses during the four years o| college at Burlington he would uirely disinherit him. That son i: ;ow one of Vermont's foremos' :itizens, respected by all. VALUE OF EDUCATION. I think we may assert that in too men there are more than 9C rho are what they are, good O? >ad, useful or pernicious to so :iety, from the instruction they lave received. It is on education hat depend the great differences observable among them. The least md most imperceptible impres ;ions receiv ed in oqr infancy have :onseq?ences very important, and of a long duration, lt is with those first impressions as with a river, whose waters we can easily tu?r by different canals,' in quite oppo_ .ite courses; so that from the in sensible, direction the stream re ceives at its, sources, it takes dif ferent directions, and at last ar rives at places far distant from each other, and with the same fa jility we may, I think, barn the ninds of children to what direc-. lions we please-Locke. THE BONDING COMPANIES ARE AGAINST DRINK. Men desiring io occupy certain positions of trust in . the United, ".tates must be bonded by regular "bonding companies," one of ? y hose main .questions is, "Do yov Ifink intoxicating liquors? " If this question is answered in the affirmative, the company will re fuse to bond the applicant. It is said that over two minions of int best business positions iii-the coun try are closed to all but total ab stainers. . * 1 EMPLOYERS PREFER TOTA! .

Thr; em ployer is Hable for damages-done by accident in his est?blishmen ihd it ls ?hly: prudent to emplo\ men wittixlear heads. - - The- reason is'a good one, anc should be pondered by every workingman. To have a reputa ti?u as .a sober man is distinctly in a man's favor in obtaining work, and in these days of intense competition every man who de sires to prosper will see the ne cessity, as a hit of business prd? dence, for avoiding the drink habit. WAYS OF WORKING THROUGH COLLEGE Plenty of Opportunities Where There's a Will. Madison C. Peters in New York . Press. A college education is an in vestment of from S 1,000 to S10, ooo and the only men who can not make interest on the invest ment are those who have no spe cial qualifications as men. It ii not so much a question as to what college you have gone through, as how much of thc college has gone through you. The majority who do go tb col lege must work their way through. The expenditure has mightily in creased with the prosperity of thc times, but there are hundreds of colleges whose tuition is low and often free, and where the ex penses can easily be met by one's own exertions, and the covcjed prizes are the most frequently car ried off by these self-reliant stu dents. Many a boy by earlier rising has made his way by selling news papers. Those with musical talent have found an easy way- The young man who starts off with a good knowledge of stenography and typewriting has a small for tune at command. Newspaper re porting of college gaines and other athletic news can be made a source of income. Teaching evenings opens a wide field. Th? teacher's desk has been the best stepping- stone to fame and fortune. At many colleges young men with executive ability run eating clubs, whereby they gel their own board free; others are waiters for a few hours a day; some have little stationery stands in their own rooms and not a few have bootblack parlors. Every col lege has its agency for laundries, athletic goods, etc. ' 1 If an ambitious barber ?should happen to read this, and would like a college education, let him go ahead, take his chair, his razors and scissors, his soaps and brushes along with him, set up the para phernalia in his room, and suc :ess is bound to come. If you are a tailor and sigh for new worlds to conquer get a move on, make for the college best suited for your capacity and start right up to fceep your fellow stu dents' clothes in repair. D?ring vacation seaside resorts hotels, cfubs, swimming pavilions and mountains clamor for help give extra employment in summe; to thousands, as well as the trol !ey lines-and as a general rule, the college student gets first :hance. ' lt often ? happens that the extr: labor involved, the worry, an-' Anxiety to get on, undermine health and the whole bcautifu vision of the future crowned wit.. >he glittering stars of succes< passes away, never to return. / college education can be pur chased too dear. Always consider ?he.greater wealth-health. Don't be ashamed to work your way through college. Thou sands have done it and came out on top. What others have done, /pu can doj if you have the wilh Usually self-supporting students are the mosi desirable-they can', afford to drink, smoke, gamble or lake part in the reckless excesses which so often ' characterize the college life of the sons of the rich. Epecietus says: "Difficulties are things that show what men are " LOOK YOUR BEST. There is great power in ap pearance. You are usually judger1 by the way you look, and you usu ally look the way you feel. But you can feel the way you like, and you can live in any mental atti tude you like. Therefore, discard alj attitudes of inferiority. Never think of yourself as inferior. Never appear-as 'if you were in ferior. The mind and the body should be well dressed, especially the mind. If you look common, you will think pf yourself as com mon, and he who habitually thinks of himself as- common be comes common. ; To look your , best is not ex pensive. Clothe your mind as richly as you can; that will cost vou nothing; and be as neat, as ?lean, and as presenfable in per son as you can. Anything that tends to make you reckless will weaken mind, character and abil ity. Make it one of your strong points to always look your best, both in person and in counte nance. And tojook your best you jnusi think your best, and feel y?nir\best.-Progress Magazine. A RISING f?Aft. He's willing and prompt, a de- ? pendable chap, The busiest mau in the store.

The best way to illustrate the cash value of an education is by a simple process of arithmetic You can easily obtain the value of the time spent at school by subtracting the earnings of a life 1 of UNEDUCATED labor from thc earnings of a life of EDU CATED labor. If an UNEDU CATED man earns one dollar - and fifty cents ? day for three hundred days in the year, he does very well indeed, and if he keeps 1 it up for forty years he will earn Si.5oX3ooX4o, or $18,000.00. An educated man usually works hy the month or year. One thou sand dollars a year is a low aver age for* the earnings of educated labor.'If the educated man works for forty years then you have , S 1,000X40, or $40,000 as the earnings of the educated man. By subtracting $; 18,000 from $40,- i OOO you will obtain S 22,000 i which must represent the value of j the time spent at school getting an education. What then is the ; cash value of each day spent at school? Suppose it lakes a child i eleven years, counting 200 school i days per year, to' obtain a suffi- ? dent amount of education to . place him in the St,ooo per year class, making a total, of 2,200 ' days spent' af school A simple di- i vision, namely--$22,000 divided \ by 2.200 will give TEN DOL- ( LARS per day for the days spent in the school rooms. DOES EDUCATION PAY i SUCCESS. One of the most impressive j facts of history is that thousands of the world's most successful men started without the ghost of a chance. There is not an "occu pation/or profession in existence , that has not been glorified by < men or boys who, at ' the start, were no greater than the average \ boy or man. Getting started has ' ever been the supreme moment in most men'" careers, lt's impossi- < ble to learn to swim without first geiiing inio the water. We learn ? by doing and we learn it in no ,j other way. John Wanamaker ? walked four miles as a boy in or- , der io clerk Sn a book store for' 4 one dollar and twenty cents a : week.

WHICH? r There arc two kinds of men iii the world; those who sail and those who drift; those who choose) the ports to which they will go, and skilfully and boldly shape their course across thc seas with the wind or against it, and those! who let the winds and tides carry them where they will. The men who sail, in due time arrive; those; who drift, often cover greater dis tances and face far greate/ perils, but they never make port- Thef men who sail kno\y where they want to go and what they want to do. They do not wait on luck, or"; fortune or favorable currents; they depend on themselves,- and!) expect no help from circum stances. Success of the real kind is always in thc man who wins it. not in conditions. No man be comes great by accident; gren' things are never done by chance.!' a man gets what he pays for-ir character, in work, and*!;, energy A boy would better put luck oiit of nir mind if he means lu accoiii plish anything. There are few really fine things which li? cannot ?^ef if he is willing to pay tlx price. Men fail, as a rule, because they will not pay'the price of the thing they want; they are not will ing to work hard enough, to pre pare thoroughly enough, to put thf mselves-heartily into what the are doing. The only road to ad vancement is to do work so weil that you are alway, ahead of the iemands of your positron. Keep ahead of your work, and your dvork will push your fortunes for voit. Oift employersdp hot decide whether we shall' stay yViier> "ive are or go oh and tip ; we decide tint matter ourselves.
