During the past summer you have thought occasionally that when tlie winter evenings came you would get down to study along some certain line which you thought might be of benefit to you. Tin time is here; what have you done? Is it not true that you keep putting off your study from evening to eve ning, ana from wet k to week? In fact, year after year you have dawdled through the winter and let opportunities to study slip by, excus ing yourself by promising you will do j it ‘next winter.” So you find yourself no better off and each year getting older and less liable to get down to serious work because of accumulating responsibili ties. You cannot expect to make tlie most of your life without more study and none can provide time for this study buf yourself. You could make time for it if you were in earnest—had a definite pur pose. As you go on without the knowledge you ought to bo gaining from year to | year you will get discouraged and find yourself unprepared to advance. Why fritter away another year of your life? You cannot “come back” this way? (Copyright, J922.) To Cure »« Cold in One Puv. Take Laxative IMUlMO QCiNINC tab’ets. The box bears the signature of K. W Urove. (lie sure you get BHOAIU.) UOe.—Adv.
