Character Is Power.
Many think to make money i
making the most of one's self, sai<
a man of wide experience, hut Join
l>. Rockefeller, Jr., the riches
young man in tne world, spoakini
of what la* considered the four bes
things in life, placed character first
friendship second, health third an<
success last. Reside the charaete
of (ieorgc Washington the million
of some Americans look ama/ingl
small. William M. lCvarts said
"As there is nothing in thejworl
great hut man, there is nothin
truly great in man hut character,
fharaeter is power. Character i
the stone that will grind every otlu
stone to powder.
(ieorge Horace Lorimer, in
Self-Made Merchant's Letters t
HisKoi," sums up the value <
character in this way: "It's tli
quality of the goods inside the wraj
per that tells, when once they g?
into the kitchen and up to tli
cook." The merchant, you remcn
her, was the head of a great pack
ing house, and to impress upon hi
son the value of character, he said
"You can cure a ham in dry sa
and you can cure it in sweet piekh
si'ul when you're through you'v
got pretty good eating either wn\
provided you .started with a goo
iiam. If you didn't, it doesn
make ,!ny dilTcrence how you cure
it? the ham trycr's going to stic
his sliarp iron into the hone an
strike the sour spot and throw i
aside. It doesn't make any dilTei
enee how mueh money and suga
and fancy pickle you soak into
fellow, he's no good unless he i
sound and sweet ot the core."

Letter to A. H. Foster, ,
Union, S. C. \
Dear Sir: Some think we take a good .
deal of risk in inviting complaints of
Devoe lead-and-zinc?we authorize our t
agent to sell it under this guarantee:
'If you have any fault to llnd with 1
this paint, either now or in putting it .
on. or hereafter in the wear, tell your
dealer about it.
"We authorize him to do what is
I riget at our expense."
"The following story tells how little
' the risk is:
J H Asher ?fc Co, hardware dealers,
Rhincbeck, N Y, have sold Devoe 5rom
'70 to now: have sold thousands of gallons
and have had jast one complaint
in all this time.
Three aides of a house .were perfect; ;
the fourth was as bad as the three were '
good.
Explanation?it rained the nivnt he
fore ihe fourth side was painted; and
the painters didn't wait for the wood to
dry. ]
What is done in such a case? Whatever
the dealer, who sold the paint,
considers it fair to do. We-leave it to
him. He may not do exactly what wo
seould do if we were there: but we are
not there. The best we can do is to
leave it to him. Yovrs truly,
