Andrew Carneg's Aphorisms.

HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS,

Dr Andrew Carnegie, the great American Emperor of Commerce, has written a new book on " The Empire of Business." By courtesy of the publishers tht> " Sun day World Magazine," of New York, has been permitted to present to its readers a number of most interesting extracts from the proof-sheets of this notable book. Mr Carnegie is a maker as well as a donate of books. And he writes about what he knows. Pew books m tha Carnegie Libraries will contain more comoionsense and instruction for the average man than " The Empire of Business." The doughty author tackles the biggest subjects aa if they were bars of iron, and he were a sturdy blacksmith. " What would I do with the Tariff if I were Czar ?" " J-Jow to win fortune," " The bugaboo of trusts/ " The A.B.C. of Money," " Eailroads past Mid present"—suoh. are a few of the topics which Mr Carnegie talks about m conver sational fashion. His proverbs are aa numerous as those of Sancho Panza or Josh Billings. No matter what the subject, epigrams flow from his pen as freely as the ink. Hia teaching is the same " gospel ot wealth " which is to-day most commonly oonabcted with his name. Be industrious. Live within your income. Above allthing3 think. Distribute what you have made. Don't let your wealth own you. There is scarcely an instance of a man who 3saa made a fortune by speculation and kept it. Merer endorse. Always break orders to save owners. r Boss your boss just aa soon as you can ; try it on. early. No young man ever lived who has not a oaance. There is always a boom m brains. A basketful of bonds is the heaviest basket a young man ever had to carry. Lst no man know more of your specialty than you do yourself. It is a great mistake to think that the i man who works all the time wins m the vacs Such is the gospel of Andrew Carnegie, or at leasit a part of it. The new book is by no means the work of " a prentice hand." It is the fifth book j written by the great steel king. Ib appears to be his ambition to fill an entire shelf m his hundreds of Public Libraries. His foar earlier book are " Triumphant Democracy." " Gospel of Wealth/*" Ameri cas Fous-in-Hand m Britain/ and " Round the World." Following are notabla extracts frora the new book: — HIS INTEREST IK LIBRABIEB When I was a boy m ray teens, m Allegheny City, Col. Anderson, whoso me mory I must ever revere, who had a few hundred books, gave notice that he would lend these books every Saturday afternoon to boye and young men. You cannot imagine with what anxiety some of us who embraced this opportunity to obtain know ledge looked forward to every Saturday afternoon, when we could get one book ex changed for anoiher. ... It is from personal experience that I feel that there is no human arrangement so powerful for good, there is no benefit that can be bestowed upoii a community so great, as that which places within the reach of ail the treasures of the world which are stored up m books. A NOTABLE BROOM BRIGADE. The other day a fashionable mother m Michigan asked a young man whether he fyad ever seen a young lady sweep m a room so grandly as her Priscilla. He said no, he never had, and the mother was j gratified beyond measure; but then, said he, after a pause, "What I should like to aea her do is to sweep out a room." It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary. I was one | of those sweepers myself, and who do you suppose were my fellow-aweepera ? David fit' Cargo, now Superintendent of the Allegheny Valley Eailroad; Eobert Pit* cairn, Superintendent of the Pennsylvania Bailroad; and Mr Moreland, City At torney. We all took turns ; to each morning did th© sweeping 1. And, now I remember, Da vie was so proud of lisa clean white skirt bosom that he used to spread over it an old silk bandana handkerchief which he kept for that purpose, and we other boys thought he was putting oa airs. CHOOSE ONf THINO AND STICK TO IT. There is no great fortune to come from salary, however high, and the business man pursues fortune. If he be wise he puts all ais eggs m one basket and then watches that basket. If he is a merchant m coffee, ite attends to coffee ; if a merchant m sugar, he attends to sugar and lets coffee alone, and only mixes when he drinks hia coffee alone, and only mixes them when he drinks Ma coffee with sugar m it.

growing JTiinner, Thousands of women are wasting away day by day, week by week, month J by month, through anxiety, overwork, ' and motherhood. [ Their once robust constitutions have been overtaxed, and the wasting away process has thrown them into decline. From strong, robust, vigorous health to the last bed of sickness is but a step or two. How important then to check this weakness and wasting away. Delay means but one ending—consumption. Every woman who has weak lungs, who is overworked, who has a cough that does not mend, asthma, catarrh, or lung trouble of any kind whatever, should take Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil, Lime, Soda, and Greasote, and should take it to-day. It enriches the blood, restores health and activity, gives vigour and vitality to both mind and body. It is a tonic and a medicine food for run-down, overworked, over taxed, exhausted women. All grocers and chemists sell it. Price 2/6 and 4/6. "It's Famous." 80
