Age
Age is a quality of mind. If you've left your drearns behind, If hope is cold, If you no longer look ahead, If you ambition's fires are dead, Then you are old!
But-if from Life you take the best, If in life you keep the zest, If love you hold; No matter how the years go by, No matter how the birthdays fly, You are not old!.
(By Edward Tuck, European Banker, age 85.)
Price
There is hardly anything in this world that some men cannot make a little worse, and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price only are this man's lawful prey.-Ruskin.
Reduced Rates
A Scotchman wishing to know his fate at once, telegraphed a proposal of marriage to the lady of his choice. The answer did not come until late that evening, and then was in the affirmative.
"ff f were you I'd think twice before marrying a girl who kept me waiting all day," said a friend.
"Na, Na," said the Scot, "The lass who waits for the night rates is the lass for me."
Your Best Asset
To constantly increase your circle of acquaintance among people whose acquaintance is desirable-to develop your acquaintance with these people into friendship throirgh the warmth of brotherly love and a spirit of helpfulness, is both a duty which pays big dividends, and a pleasure that rounds out the happiness and matures the development of a man.
Prevent Nose Bleed
A correspondent wrote the country editor for a cure for nose bleed. "To prevent nose bleed," the editor replied, "keep it out of other people's business."
Builders Dreams
The architects dream, they are dreamers of dreams, And the builders make dreams come true, And from steel and stone and from clay and sand They fashion the world anew; But whether they work with marble or sod, The builders are hand in hand with God.
They go to the forest for oak and fine, The stuff for the humbler homeq And the mountains render their granite gifts For the statelier spires and domes; But whether they work with marble or sod, The builders are hand in hand with God.
They rear huge piles that pierce the shy, And the ships that master the sea; They bridge the rivers with spans of steel In a service for you and me; But whether they work in marble or sod, The builders are hand in hand with God.
The dreamers dream and the builders build, And the work of the world goes on; And the work of the dreamer and builder stays, When the dreamer and builder are gone; But whether they work in marble or sod, The builders are hand in hand with God.

Nitrogen
Nitrogen has taken the most important position in the affairs of the world and is by far the most active in the world markets. Every square mile of air over the earth's surface carries 20,000,000 tons of nitrogen, enough in each square mile to last the world twelve years at the present rate of consumption. It is absolutely indispensable to mankind in peace or war, and a necessity to all animal and vegetable growth.
