I his powm is not to he used to get the heller oi the man whom we call onr competitor, hut lo overcome our own weakness *> eharaeier. and to make our business as efficient and capable of rendering usefid service to the puhlie us possible. If this course is followed, success, far greater than that which can he wrung front life, must assuredly follow.
