Lat us review the case. ‘Tracy begins life, according to the best authorities, under ordinary eonditions, in a humble walk of life, Until his early manhood he is ¢riminal. Even after his hands have become stained with human and he has worn prison stripes, he apparently makes some effort Coming to this state aman escaped convict from a Colorado he for a time at least leads a honest life.

They started with only $1,000 capital. ‘The epportunities for wealth never so keenly appreciated as when some one has availed himself of some one of them. The selling of popoorn is a humble pursuit that we ordinarily ad not look upon as a possible avenue to wealth. Boys often sell it. We are apt to forget that if @ boy, with his loose methods, can make a little money out of a thing, a shrewd business man can make more, For pop: corn selling, Uke any other pursuit not merely menial, must yleld to the force of Intellect. ‘The city of Seattle, tke any other city in the land, has many bright, able men, willing to work hard tn any line that promises a fortune, But thelr success waite because they do not know an opportunity when they nee one. ’ They are looking for a sure thing—something that will give quick returns—and they take no chances at uncertainties, They ahy of small profits, They lack patience. ‘They have courage, perhaps, and in- dustry, but are waiting for some big enterprise that they can consider worthy of their efforts, Well, they may wait forever.
