New Nork-Henry Ford is the rich est man in the world, according to an article published last week by the Wall Street Journal. "Henry Ford has in the Ford Mo tor Company the largest income, and if capilized, the largest fortune in the world," said the newspaper. "Profits, before taxes for 1922, will exceed 125 million dollars; af ter taxes they will be 110 million dollars-about $100 a car. With these earnings the Ford Motor Com pany could be capitalized at 2,000 million dollars and pay 5 per cent on that capital. "Ford condemns bankers, but with 180 million dollars in cash he is the largest individual banker in this country, if not in the world. "His income, adding to his bound less wealth, 1-2 million dollars a day through the busy s eason, is probably unequalled in all history. "If he continues to pile up cash at this rate he can not Jong denounce Wall street or the money power of the country. "Henry Ford will be that money power." firm OM Scies, ?tnw Remettes Won't tait, The worst cases, uo matter cf howlong standing are cured hy the wonderful, old reliable Dr Porter's Antiseptic Healing Oil.

Adjournment. One Man's Road to Success. Fifty years ago, a young man went to Chicago with $300 in his pocket his entire savings. He sought employ ment and found a place in a dry goods establishment at $10 a week. A few days ago in one of Chicago's biggest emporiums, all of whom had seen many years of continuous ser vice, were entertained at a luncheon given to celebrate the anniversary of fifty years of unbroken service by the same individual who had be gun his career at a ten-dollar wage. He had gradually advanced, step by step, until he became president of the greal Iry goods firm he had serv ed so faithfully and well. Thirty-three of those who sat with him had served in the same employ as long and as faithfully as he. But the chief prize had fallen to him. He had studied the business in every de tail, and made himself master of all its problems, with the result that there came a day when he was ad mitted to be the principal factor. He had carried enthusiasm into all his work; he never watched the relock or stunted his efforts. He"ssw'the great business growing as Chicago expanded. He was a man full of sug gestions, born of observation and personal experience. He formulated a little set of maxims to which kept adding as the years slipped by, but his chief inspiration came from his early Christian training. Here are some of the maxims which John G. Shedd-the young hero of the story and now the veteran presi dent of Marshall Field & Co.-for mulated for his own guidance and they are worth considering by our youth of today who are just begin ning a career: Keep your life clean and upright. So live that you will have nothing to fear from publicity. One of the most 'important requisites for a happy and successful business career is a clean mental and physical concept of life. Learn the value of time. It is a precious asset. To waste it in indo lence is a crime. The boy who is al ways a little late never gets a place in the great race of life and does not de serve it. The man who is continually at work is the man who is happy and continuously successful. _ One of the most important points in a young man is character-once tarnished, it is hard to clear. 'Shun liquar, tobacco and all bad compan ions. They are too heavy a load to carry. Do not be a whirling dervish, merely whirling, whirling aimlessly. Always be up and doing. Activity cuts a very much greater figur? than it is usually given credit for in the success of a young man. Treat failure as stepping-stones to further effort. Never put your hand out further than you can dray it back. At times be bold; always be true. Preserve by all the means in your power a sound mind in a sound body. -Christian Herald.
