Many people fail because thej o i/Ot make each day count and lose sight of the fact that success depends upon per sistency of effort. Take the matter of saving money, for instance. Fio many persons save spasmodically. As the mood strikes them they PUT MONEY IN THE BANK The result is as systematic but they save with no sett led plan or purpose, they do rot get ahead as surely r..nd quickly savers invariably do. Make every day and every week count in your efforts to build up a reserve fund fer emergency and opportunity, and do not overlook the fact that 5 per cer«t interest will work for you every day you have money in the bank.
