BUSINESS DERELICTS
The Army of Men Who Had Money
but IiOBt It
A prominent New York lawyer of
wide experience says that hi his opin
ion ninety nine out of every hundred
of those who make money or inherit it
lose it sooner or later
How many thousands of good hon
est men and women there are in this
country who have worked very hard
and made all sorts of sacrifices of
comfort and luxury In order to lay up
something for the future and yet have
reached middle life or later without
having anything to show for It many
of them indeed finding themselves
without a home or any probability of
getting one without property or a cent
of money laid by for sickness for the
Inevitable emergency or for their de
clining j ears
For the sake of your home for the
protection of hard earnings for your
peace of mind your self respect your
self confidence whatever else you do
do not neglect a good solid business
training and get it as early in life as
possible It will save you from many
a fall from a thousand embarrass
ments and perhaps from the humilia
tion of being compelled to face your
wife and children and confess that
you have been a failure It may save
you from tue mortification or Having
to move from a good home to a poor
one of seeing your property slip out
of your hands and of having to ac
knowledge your weakness and your lack
of foresight and thoughtfulness or your
jbeing made the dupe of sharpers
Many men who once had good stores
of their own are working as clerks
floorwalkers or superintendents of de
partments In other peoples stores just
because they risked and lost every
thing in some venture As they now
have others depending on them they
do not dare to take the risks which
they took in young manhood and so
they struggle along in mediocre posi
tions still mocked with ambitions
which they have 110 chance to gratify
Thousands of people who were once
in easy circumstances are living in
poverty and wretchedness today be
cause they failed to put an understand
ing or an agreement In writing or to do
business in a business way Families
have been turned out of house and
home penniless because they trusted to
a relative or a friend to do what was
right by them without making a hard
and fast practical business arrange
ment with him
It does not matter how honest peo
ple are They forget and it is so easy
for misunderstandings to arise that it
is never safe to leave anything of im
portance to a mere oral statement Re
duce it to writing It costs but little in
time or money and when all parties
Interested are agreed that is the best
time to formulate the agreement In ex
act terms This will often save law
suits bitterness and alienations now
many friendships have been broken by
not putting understandings in writing
Thousands of cases are in th courts
today because agreements were not
put in writing A large part of law
yers incomes Is derived from the same
source
Business talent is as rare as a talent
for mathematics We find boys and
girls turned out of school and college
full of theories and of all sorts of
knowledge or smatterings of knowl
edge but without the ability to protect
themselves from human thieves who
are trying to get something for noth
ing No girl or boy should be allowed
to graduate especially from any of the
higher institutions without being well
grounded in practical business meth
ods Parents who send their children
out in life without seeing that they are
well versed In ordinary business prin
ciples do them an incalculable injustice
Success
Refined and Subtle Sneers
I can never understand says G K
Chesterton why It is that in poems
and romances the poor are made to
writhe at the refined and subtle sneers
of the rich As far as I can see from
the daily life of our streets it is the
poor who do the refined and subtle
sneering and the rich who writhe all
over the pavement Any one who has
studied the conditions of our great
cities will see the truth of this Every
day we see paper boys running gutter
boys moving with an undignified swift
ness and unemployables humping
themselves if we may be permitted
the use of the expression In pursuit of
cabs And what do the rich do They
affect not to notice and pass by with
well bred calm What happens how
ever if the ordinary well groomed man
about town moves at more than a
walk Hoots of derision from the low
er orders instantly assail him A poor
man may go about bareheaded What
happens if a rich man does the same
The refined and subtle sneers of the
poor make him wish that he had never
been born What we of the old aris
tocracy want is either police protection
from these gibes or a handy book of
repartee so that we shall never be
til 1I1UIUUI VUL tlUBU LUUUUU U1UUC
Marriage Superstitions
Among the agricultural laborers in
England neither father nor mother of
the bride and bridegroom go with them
to church The bridesmaid and grooms
man should be an engaged couple
whose marriage is fixed If the wed
ding party does not count even one
of the guests will die -within a year
The wedding party should not be in
church -when the clock Is striking and
the bride should not enter first In her
own house after the marriage It Is
unlucky to address the bride after the
ceremony by her maiden name In
Moores Life of Byron we are told
that on the morning of his ill starred
marriage when about to depart By
ron said to the bride Miss Mllbanke
are you ready a mistake which the
ladys confidential attendant pro
nounced to be a bad omen
