But If and So& So
Were In the way.
Many young people who, lack
gumption, get-up get, .what ever
you term it,, often reason thusly:
If it had not been for so-and-so,
and such-and-such a thing, I could
have made a great success, The
if and so-and so are in the way of
these young people, and such a suc-
cessful career is barred by the if
and so-and-so that enter into their
daily life and rob them of their vim
and courage.
These little words are the breast-
works thrown up by the weak vac-
illating, which beguile and deceive
and which are offered as excuses
for many failures. This class of
young people need our help. Our
life work is to train young people
to determine, to get up and do
things the commercial world wants
done, and for which it readily pays
cash, develop their latent talents,
quicken their perceptions, teach
them Bookkeeping, Business Train-
ing, Shorthand, Typewriting, Tel-
egraphy, Station work, Business
English, Business Law, Business
Arithmatic, Spelling, Business
Writing, Rapid Mathemetics. and
the use of the most modern office
appliances. With such training
the if and so-and-so is put out of
the way. We have trained thous-
snds who are now on the road to
success, and can do the same with
you.
Having contra' of the famous
Byrne Simplified Shorthand and
Practical Bookkeeping gives us a
wonderful advantage over other
schools inasmuch as with these
modern, practicable systems we
give a more thorough course in al
most half the time required by otb
er schools using other systems.
Confirm this assertion by inquir-
ing of the best bookkeepers and
stenographers of your town who
have attended our institution. Al-
so write for catalog and read what
. 3
young people say we have done for
them and how quickly we removed
the if and so-and-so from their
pathway, and placed them well on
the road to success. Tyler Com-
mercial (Jollege, Tyler, Texas.
Hon. Emanuel Roos of Eagle

THE TIME TEST
Seftalenlsfg People Uma\
Proof of Merit.
-- The test of time ia what tells the
tale. The public is quick to dis-
cover misrepresentations and merit
alone will stand the test of time.
Long ago, Schulenburg citizen*
publicly indorsed Doan's, Kindnev
Pills; they do so still. Would these
stataments be confirmed by Schul-
enburg residents if Doan's Kidney
Pills did not possess lasting merit?
The following testimony should
convince the most skeptical reader.
G. M. Johnson, barber, Main St.
Schulenburg, T&xas savs: "I am
|«just as strong in my praise of
; Doan's Kiiney Pills today as I was
! in 1908 when I publicly testified as
to the cure they had made for me.
That cure is still permanent. My
back was so sensative that I could
hardly stand ereat and when doing
any work, & dull ache in the small
of my back was almost unbeatable.
I was told that Doan's Kidney Pilis
would remove the the trouble and
I got a supply at Breymann's Drug
j Store. They did their work well
1 and iafter using them 1 had no
further, trouble." ■;
