MINNRAPOI.IS , Minn. , August .TO. Deal
Sir : Tlioru are two hints which , perhaps
nwy be practical to young men , In addition t (
those nlwayn jlven on such occasions :
1.Yhon a young man couuncnces a husl
ness life by work'nic ' In the employ of others
let him strive not simply to earn his salarj
anct to give satisfaction to his employers , bu
let him aim to do all ho Ims strength to ele
ana to earn his salary many times over. It
tny lirst business year It was no uncommoi
thing for mo to work all night until break
fast time , a thing 1 was not expected noi
asked to do. If a younic man will follow thi
rule of trying to make his services man ]
times wore valuable than his salary , elthci
bis employer or some one else will auprcclati
Mm. i'lieroaro always a few vacant places
left for such kind of men , and their employ
ers have very little to say as to their salaries
3. Never overrate your own ability , no
underrate that of your competitors. 1'ollov
this rule carciully , and then do not locati
yourself In business whcrtt you are not con
rmant that you are at least the equal of those
who will DO your competitors , either Ir
natural ability or In wlllingeosstn work earl ;
or late , In season and out of season , IB orde
that any ( inferences In natural ability ma ]
be overcome In this way. My experience I1
that between natural ability nnd nard worl
the latter will always win. When the twi
are In combination , nothing can prevcn
access. 0. A. I'u.i.suuiir.
HEN nUTLEIl's ADVICE.
General Hcnjanim F. ISutler gives som <
. Tory definite nints , and attaches groa
importance to investments in real estate
Ho Bays :
BOSTON. Mass. , August 20 , 1887. Dear Sir
lliavo received your note asking me t <
write somu practical hints for young men 01
the acaulrement of wealth which may b
published.
A dlfilcult task Is set me , as the clrcum
planet's under which young man commence
life are so widely varied , Uut I think tha
more young men fall In the Investment o
what they earn or receive than In any othe
way to acquire property. The temptation :
to speculation are so ereat , nnd the deslro ti
.become suudenlv rich so strong , that I be
.Jiuve eight out 01 ten. If not more , of yonn
mnn are wrecked at the very beginning.
If a young man Is earning somethlni
more than the expenses of his llvlng.and ha
'no object In view , he Is likely either to In
crease thoho expenses carelessly , or to loai
.bis money to his friends , and In so doing litho
the majoilty of eases ho wilt lose botl
friends and money , so that the best thlni
.that he can do Is to have an object , to gallic
up his money , and to have a call for it whlcl
shall bo a profitable ono. Ho nukes no fn
vestment uejcauso ho say , " 1 have got s <
little money that It won't cenno to anything
I will wait until 1 get more ; " and In wall
ing , Kcncrally , what he has goes.
When a young man has a vorylllttlo mono
let him buy some i property , preferably !
piece , however suinll. according to his mean <
of improved real cstato that Is paying mm
He had better buy It when sold at audio :
under a judicial sale , paying In cash what h
can , giving his note for the balance In smal
Bums coming due at frequently recurring It :
tervals , secured by a mortgage on the prop
erty , and then use all his extra Income 1
paying up those notes. It Is always safe t
discount your own note , and If the nott
come a llttlo too fast as soon as he gets any
thing paid his friends will aid him when h
Is putting his money where It can not Li
lost and where the property Is taking care c
the Interest , and In a very short tlmo ho wl
find that ho has got a very considerable IB
vestment. Ho will become Interested in I
Bavo his money to meet his notes , and h
will directly como Into a considerable c
, property , and hardlv know how it came t
i nun. That Is , ho will have had a motive fo
li laving , and will got the result of that suvlnj
\ and will not bo tempted to entnr Into speci
r Istlons. Kothlng Is so safe for an Invesl
men I as Improved real ostato. Nothing 1
t' likely to grow in value foster. In the las
1 fifty years 00 per cout oC all the merchant
and traders In lioston have failed. 1
the last titty years 00 per cent of a
B the business corporations have failed or gou
, out of business , so that their stock has boo
Wiped out In the last fifty years alt the 1m
t proved real estate , on the average , has pal
[ Its Interest and tauos and quadrupled I
< value. If a young man's father can give hli
' anything to start him In the world he ha
> better Invest It In that way and let It accuun
. i late , and earn bis living , and ho will t
* richer than If be had goau Into business. Jn

1 claim no originality In this advice , an
will relate you an Incident in my own e :
perieuco to Illustrate It :
In my earliest practice In my profession
was qnlto successful In earning money , ar
1 had a small balance in the Lowell bank , ;
the head of which was Mr. James ( ! . Carne
. The bank was directly across the hall fro
PI m. rav olllce. 1 stepped into the bank to elepos
J a llttlo money on ono occasion , and AI
FJC Carney said tome :
* - ' "Why don't you Invest your money'.1"
"Invest , " said 1 ; " 1 have nothing to 1
vest. "
"Oh yes , " he says , "you have ejulte a lltt
sum of money , and 1 see that your youi
friends come with your checks occasional !
evidently boriowlngit.Now , you had belt
Invest It. "
"How can 1 Invest It ? "
"Invest It In real estate. "
" 1 know nothing about real cseate. "
" ( ! o to the lirst auction and buy the pro
erty. You cannot bo much cheated In thr
because you will have to give ) very little mo
than somebody else will bo willing to pay t
l > It. Ulvo your notes for It , save your wone
II collect your feus , pay your notes as they t
como duo. See that the property Is Improvi
property , so that the rent will keep dev
your Interest account , and when you got ai
money Invest It In the same wa
and If your notes press up <
you a llttlo faster than you ci
pay then , why , wo will , when wo tiiul th
a what > ou are doing with your money , d
count your note and give you a little mn
time , so that you can pay It up. This w
necessitate the prompt collection of yo
bills , for I know that you would r.Uher wo
and earn 8100 than dun a man for It , unlc
you have 0 pressing need for It. You ha
now oven asked for a little bill that wo 01
you In the bank , which shows that you <
not promptly collect your dues , "
1 followed the advice and bought a mil
ber of pieces of property lu that manner , ai
V never did exactly know how they we
'itld for , but they were , and Jn a few yean
owned sniiio twenty dllTorcnt pieces of prop-
rty in Iiowcll that came to me In that way
. can only say that 1 wish I had been wls
nouijh to have continued this course througl
Ifo.
Ifo.I do not think 1 need to extend these suz
gestlons any further , because if a young mm
von't mind these ho won't any others , am
cannot sugtccst any bettor ones. I an

Tim great and only liarnum tells hi
story over again in this language :
WAi.ur.MEitE , r. T. UAHNUM'S Jlisi :
ir.xcE. Hitiuop.roitT , Uo.m. August ! ! C
8S7. DEAU Sin : 1 have received moir
cttersdurinz the last twenty years nskln
ne to give the writers some practical hint
on tha acquirement of wealth , and have hen
iifore uniformly referred them to my ante
ilography , which contains a comprchonslv
ecturo on time sutiliict. elellveieel by in
ninny times In England and the Unltci
Stales. Thoso'.who really dcslru to attain ai
tulcpondeiico have only to set their mind
ipon It and adopt the prqwir means , as thej
lo In regard to any other object which the
wish to accempllsh , and the thing Is easil ;
lone. But however easy it may bo found t
nako money ; I have no doubt most poopl
vill agree It is the most dllllcult thing in th
vnrld to keep It
The road to wealth Is , as Dr. Kranklli
rnly says , "as plain as tlm road to mill. " i
consists simply In expending less than w
; arn. Many may say , "Wo undorstatid this
.his Is simply economy , and wo knnv
economy Is wealth ; w know wo can't ca
our cake1 and keep It also. " Vet , pcrlmp ;
nore failures arise from mistakes on till
point than almost auv other. Trn
economy Is misapprehended , and pcopl
go through Ufa without properl
comprehending what that principle Is. Thcr
are many who think that economy consist
n saving cheese parings and candle ends , li
cutting oil twopence front the laundress' bll
and doing all sorts of little mean thlngf
Economy Is not meanness. This false eco
lomy may frequently bo seen In men c
business , and In those Instances it ofte :
runs to writing paper. You tind eooil biisl
loss men who save all the old envelopes am
scraps , and would not tear a new sheet ei
> aoer. it they could avoid It , for the worlel
That Is all very well , they mav in this wa
save $5 or $10 a year ; but being o ceo n on :
ca ! ( only In note paper ) they think the
can allord to waste tlmo to have exponslv
parties and to drive their carriages. ,
True economy consists In always makini
ho Income exceed the out : o. The real com
forts of life cost but a small portion of who
nest of us can earn. It Is the femr of whn
Mrs , ( Jrundy m y say that keeps the nose
of many worthy families to the urlndstone
You cannot accumulate a foituno by takinj
ho road that loads to poverty. It needs n
prophet to tell us that tlwso wlto llvo full
ip to tliolr means , without any thought of
reverse In this lifo , can never att.Un a pecun
arv independence.
The foundation of success In llfo is gooi
ipalth : that is the substratum of fortune
Then , how Important It is to steulv the law
of health , which Is but another name for th
aws of nature , The closer wo keep to th
aws of nature , the nearur wo are to goo
icaltli. Tobacco and rum should bo shun net !
To make money requires a clear brain. N
natter how bountllully a man may beblcsse1
with Intelligence , If the- brain Is muddled an
ils judgment warped by Intoxicating drink :
t Is Impossible for him to carry ou liuslni's
successfully.
The ) safest plan , and the one most stiro c
success for the young man starting in life , I
; o select the vocation which Is most conger
nl to his tastes. There Is as much dlverslt
n our brains as In our countenances. Som
men are born mechanics , while some have
great aversion to machinery. Unless n ma
entire upon a vocation Intended for him b
nature , and best suited for his puculln
genius , ho can not succeed. After hccurln
tlm right vocation , you must bo careful t
select the proper location , and not bogi
justness whore there am already enough t
meet all demands In the same occupation.
Voung men starting in life should avol
running into debt. There lit scarcely anj
tiling that drags a person down llko debi
Debt robs a man of self-respect , and make
ilm almost despise hlmsolt. Monev Is a tei
rtble master , but a very excellent servant , i
Is no "eyo-seivant. " There Is. nothing thr
will work SQ faithfully nsmoney wlion plnee
at Interest , well scoured. It works day an
night , and In wet or dry weather.
When a man Is in the right path , ho intu
IJcrsovero , and perserverance Is sometime
uut another word for self-reliance. Unt
you can so rely upon yourself , yo
need not expect to succeed. Whatever yo
do , do It with all your mlirlit. Many a ma
icqulrcs a fortune by doing his buslnef
thoroughly , while his neighbor remains pee
for llfo because ho only half does It. Amb
tion , energy , industry and perseverance ai
Indispensable requisites for success In busl
n ess.
No man has a right to expect to succeed I
llfo unless he understands his business , an
nobody can understand his business the
oimhly unless ho learns It bv personal appl
cation and expcilonco. You must oxercls
caution In laying your plans , but bo bold i
carrying them out A man who Is all catitln
will never dare to tike hold and bosucoes
ful. and a man who Is all boldness Is merel
reckless , and must eventually fall.
There Is no such thing In.tho world as hid
If a man adopts proper methods to be sn
ccsstul , "luck" will not prevent him. If I
does not succeed , there are reasons for It , n
though , perhaps , ho may not be able to si
them.
Monov Is good for nothing unless vonkno
tha value of It by experience. Oivo a be
520,000 and put him In business , and tl
chances are that ho will lose every dollar i
It before he Is a year older. Nine out of to
of the rich men of emr country to-da
started out In llfo as poor boys , with dote
mined wills , Industry , perseverance , ecot
omv and good hnblts.
The great ambition should be to excel a
others engaged in the same occuu tlo :
Whenever you lincl the best dootor.besTBho
maker , or anything else , that man Is mo
sought for , and always has enonith to d
Kvory boy should learn some trade or fr
fesslon. Engage In ono kind ot'-buslne
only , and stick to It faithfully until you BU
cced , or until your experience shows thi
you should abandon It. A constant hamme
ing on ono nail will generally drive It hon
at last , so that it can be clinched. There
eood sense In the old caution about bavin
too many Irons In the tire at once , linwa :
of "outside operations. "
Itead the newspapers , and keep thorough !
posted In regard to the transactions of tl
world. Ho who doesn't consult the newspi
tiers will soon lind himself and his bualne
loft out In tlit ) cold.
Bo careful to advertise in some shapd i
other , because it Is evident that If a mnn In
ever so eood an article for sale , and nobod
knows It , It will bring him no return. Tl
whole philosophy of lite Is , first sow , the
reap. This principle applies to all kinds <
business , and to nothing more eminent
than to advertising. If a man has a real
good article , there Is no wav In which ho ci
reap more advantageously than by "sowint
tn the public In this way. If n man husgooi
for sale , and ho doesn't aelvertlso them , tl
chances are that some day the sheriff will <
It for him.
1'olltonuss and civility art ) the best caplti
over Invested In business. Lario stores , g !
signs , llamlng advertisements will all pro
nnavalllnc If you or vour employes treat yo
patrons abruptly. The more kind and liber
a man Is , the more generous will be the pa
ronaue bestowed upon him.
1'reserve your integrity ; It Is more precloi
than diamonds or rubies. The most dlllici
thing In life Is to make- money dishonest !
Our prisons are full o ( men who attempted
follow this course. No man can be dlshotie
without soon being found out , and when li
lack.of principle Is discovered , nearly uvei
avenue to success is closed against him fe :
over , Strict honesty not only lies nt t
foundation of all success In life llnanclall
but lu every other respect.
