Failures In Business

The man who has never failed in business cannot possibly know whether he i& honest or not, eannot possibly know whether he has any "grit" in hiui, or is worth a button. It is the man who fails, and theu rises, who is really great in his way. Peter Cooporfailedin ruaking hats, failed as a cabinet maker, locomotive builder, and groeer ; but as often as he failed he " tried and tried again," until he could stand upon his feet alone, theii erowned his victory by giying a íuillion dollars to help the poor boys in times to come. Horace Greeley tried three or four lines of business before he fouuded the New York Tribune, and made it worth a million of dollars Patrick Henry failed at riverything he undertook until he made himself the orator of the age and nation. Tho founder of the New York Ilerald kept on failing and sinking money for ten years, and then made one of the most proiitable newspapers on earth.
