A chcck shows that out of 140 bank prcsident inveetigated, 100 came up from the ranks. Half the bank presidents in New York City came from middle weat farms. Most of the big utility heads rose from lineeman's jobs. Nine out of every ten executives in the steel industry rose from the ranks. Out of 197 such, 84 began as laborers, 26 began as clerlcs, 25 began aE managere or chemists, and 19 began as messengers.

Marking Your Books

He is a man who always likes to mark, The books he reads, with lines for emphasis, Calling attention to some rare remark. Which coincides, in point of view, with his'

He pencils heavily along a page, What strikes his fancy, or provokes his wit, And any though that he considers sage, Carries approving marks in front of it.

-Helen Rowland Prommel.

Imrnortclity

Immortality is a word that Hope, through the ages, has been whispering to Love. The miracle of thought, we cannot understand. The mystery of Life and Death, we cannot comprehend. This chaos called "World" has never been explained. The golden bridge of Life from gloom emerges, on shadow rests. Beyond this, we do not know. Fate is speechless. Destiny is dumb. And the secret of the future has never yet been told. We love, we wait, we hope; the more we love, the more we fear. Upon the tenderest heart the deepest shadows fall. All paths, whether filled with thorns or flowers, end here. Here Success and Failure are the same. The rag of wretchedness and the robe of power, all differences and distinctions lose in this democracy of Death. Character survives. Goodness lives. Love is immortal.

-Robt. G. Ingersoll

Impossible

A farmer from a small Southern town spent a glorious two Weeks vacation in New York. Returning home he kept his children agape with his stories about the wonders he'd seen in the big city.

Said one of his kids: "Father, weren't you afraid of getting lost?"

He said: "How could I be afraid of getting lost when I didn't care where f was?"

Ma and Pq

"Mother, are you the nearest relative I have?"

"Yes, Dear, and your father is the closest."

History Repects

The Grandsire sat in his easy chair, And hie laugh was a gurgling croak' When his grandson told of a monstrous fish, He had caught on his line which broke.

Then the old man gravely smiled, and said, "Dear boy, it wae large, I know, For I hooked that same old fish myself, Some 6fty years ago."

Dunces to Geniuses

Charles Darwin could never learn a language.

Napoleon was number 42 in his classyet we do not know the name of any of the 4l who were ahead of him.

Sir Isaac Newton was next to the lowest in his form. He failed in geometry because he did not do his problems the way the book said he should.

George Eliot learned to read with great difficulty, and gave no youthful promise of brilliance.

Oliver Goldsmith was the very bottom of his class.

Emerson was a hopeless dunce in mathematics.

James Watt, inventor of the steam engine, was the butt of his playmates in school.

All of which proves, probably, that you cannot distinguish genius at an early age, for most of the math wizards of youth are seldom heard of in after life'

'Ccneless

A reckless young lady from Delaware, Of the high cost of living was welaware. She said, I suppose I could save on my clothes For f don't care a cuss what the helaware.

Sword qnd Sccrles

All the law in the world has been obtained by strife' Every principle of law which obtains, had first to be wrung by force from those who denied it; and every legal rightthe legal rights of whole nations as well as those of individuals - suPposes a continual readiness to assert it and defend it. The law is not mere theorY, but living force' Hence it is that Justice, who in one hand holds the scales in which she weighs the right, carries in the other hand the sword with which she executes it. The scales without the sword is the impotence of law. The scales and the sword belong together, and the state of the law is perfect only where power with which Justice carries the sword, is equalled by the skill with which she holds the scales.
