Exchange.
The great majority of the successful
men of the country are the men who
were brought up to a trade; the most
successful men are those who have fol
lowed closely one trade. Men without a
definite purpose, a settled business in
life, rarely ever suoceedfloaters, drift
ers, are generally failures in life. Men of
humble birth and very limited opportu
nities have often attained both great
eminence and success in life, buUhey
were men ol settled and fixed purpose,
while on the other hand men of splendid
opportunities and fine talents have been
comparative failures. Success involves
an element thst cannot be substituted
by either native or acquired ability or by
both. The law of apprenticeship holds
good today, and it will not be sup
planted by brilliant talents, abundant
means and the very best opportunities
in service and service only men learn
the secrets that insure eminence and
success in life.
The general tendency to specialism i
the recognition and expression, in an
other form, of the law of apprenticeship.
What waa at one time essential to indi
vidual success is imperatively demanded
now as an indispensable qualification
for efficient public service. It is a" ques
tion of competency rather than intelli
gence one trade and the mastery of it
is a universally recognized demand (rnd
a oondition precedent to the bestowal of
public confidence. 1
In every profession and calling this
great principle has become a popular
demand. The dentist, the phyeician,
the surgeon, the lawyer, the preacher,
the teacher and others muni be special
ists. In the industrial realm the same
rule applies: the manufacturer, the
financier, the railroad manager, must
be experts men who hsve made their
business a specialty served their ap
prenticeship. What is true of the ex
alted positions and relations in life is
equally true of the more humble the
man who bas a business and under
stands and follows that business will
succeed. In every line of work there
is a demand for competent men at fair
and profitable compensation for their
cervices. In everything competition
sharp, but the man who has mastered
his trade will win, while he who has
tampered with many things and mas
tered no one of them will fail.
Give your child a trade. Find out
what be bas a talent and fondness for
and then cultivate that talent and de
velop that taste. Do not suffer pride or
an unwise ambition to thwart nature or
antagonize the essential conditions of
success in life. In so doing it is possible
to make a third rate doctor, lawyer,
preacher or teacher by spoiling a me
chanical genius and robbing the world
of the great benefits that would have
been born of his talents. Give your
child a trade and fit him for the sharp
conflicts of life, good citizenship, use
fulness and happiness.

Bird Cure For Bull Wee? I
Dallas, Texas, Sept. 9. Col. Isaac

Dallas yesterday to study the Texas
boll weevil situation and try to find
remedy in the bird creation. Col
Brown believes that for every in sec

Miss Helen Miller Gould requested
Col. Brown to try to discover the bird
that naturally should feed upon and
destroy the boll weevil. She offered to
pay all bis expenses to Texas and the
expenei of his investigations. Col
Brown is, therefore, in Texas as the
philanthropic proxy of Miss Qould.
He spent sll yesterday after
